Philosophy dipshit here. How does a flash of light illuminate an object that big and far away?

Philosophical shithead here!

A 15,000,000,000,000 bulb, of course!

But how could we know that that object illuminated by a 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen bulb is even real? For all you know, that massive object illuminated by a 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen bulb could be a fiction, a simple 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen shadow upon the wall!

So how many shitheads does it take to change a 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen bulb?

[-] Localhorst86@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago

Just one. See? I just changed it to 15,000,000,000,008 Lumen

Didn't you know? The enlightenment spreads like an ideology. Traditional physics outplayed.
