What people don't realize is that these levels are built with a barely-perceptible curve to match the shape of the Earth.
- See, this is why I post stupid shit like this. One, for the comments, and two, for info like this. Thank you kind stranger 👍 ☺️.
  
  Just in case you are serious (can’t say for sure on internet) - he wasn’t.
- A level would have to be unwieldy large before it would have to account for that. Thats completely made up.
  
  No, I was being completely serious with my ridiculous statement above.
  
  Yeah well I'm an ant, that is unweildy large for me

Proof the earth is flat:
- Is this Loss?
  
  No it's ground

Then why is the bubble curved and not flat.
Checkmate flerthers!

It still makes me laugh all our building's paths and stuff like that are judged by a floating air bubble in a coloured liquid.
- And lasers, and gps
  
  Unless your building or infrastructure was built after they became a thing, everything else, air bubble.
  
  And theodolites.

Now do it with a 15,000 mile long level.

Any spirit level is simply a measure of its tangent with centre of mass of the earth on its plane. I can use the same technique to prove a tennis ball is flat, I can prove thin air is flat….
Woahhh…. What if, everything is flat…. Duuuuude.

TAKE THIS GLOBEHEADS
FLAT EARTHERS ALL AROUND THE WORLD ARE LAUGHING AT YOU
- Oh well, at least both sides are laughing.

Well, that settles that I guess. Let’s argue about politics or religion instead…
- GOD, NO, PLEASE, NO, DON'T!
  
  Can you spare a moment to talk about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ?
- It is an argument about religion.

Okay.
Lays down another level next to it.

Welp, can't argue against that. Ya finally converted me.

I think this just means that they installed earth on a good angle.

Turn a bowl upside-down and slap this bad boy on top of it. Boom, proof the bowl is a plate.

@0x4E4F have you finally repented, or are you exhibiting your ignorance?
