They are digging in to the data to find this out. A synonym for digging is mining...

What you've described is literally still data mining.

Wasn't attempting to change anyone's mind on what to call it. I was expressing another way, my particular way, of understanding it.

Come off it, you'll be telling us the Earths not flat next.

Close…

There was some, the aliens are already here…and like influencing stuff.

Have to admit. The brain has to be a special type of pudding to both deny the moon landing, and be convinced aliens are here. Its impressive in its derpatude.

I once met a flat earther on a night out. I began by pointing out that when I fly to Asia (pre-pandemic) we save around three hours by flying over Russia and using the curvature of the earth to travel 7800 miles instead of 9000... they said the navigation system was rigged and we were flying in circles.

Second attempt, I discussed how James May maxed the Bugatti Veyron by driving the 5km straight road at that German track (can pronounce but not spell Aeralessaie? Or something). Told the individual you couldn't see the road end as it dipped beyond the horizon by following the curvature of the earth... they said it was trick photography and all a conspiracy to keep us subdued.

Third take, I discussed how when up a mountain you can see further than at sea level; as even in Death Valley with nothing for miles, you can't see beyond the dip in the horizon unless elevated... I was ready to be told it was psychological...

"Mountains confuse me."

Now, THAT I didn't expect. So, I asked them why.

"They're closer to the sun, so why do they have snow on them almost all the time? The sun should melt it."

I thought I'd been hooked by an amazing troll, applauded and asked who else they'd sucked in. Their mate corrected me and advised they'd tried similar arguments for a decade... I just left them be at that point.

This is so off topic for this thread, but I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you 👍😂

"It looks like there will be a track editor."
"Why do you think that?"
"I didnt say there will be a track editor."
Well, yes, you didnt say per fact, but you should simply have said "To me it seems" or anything similar hinting at a far propability instead of a high chance - and maybe you could directly answer to a direct question ;)

"It looks like there will be rain."
"Why do you think it will (definitly) happen?"
"Because the clouds are already very promising."

And mixing up languages can happen, just as well as using wrong colloquial expressions (which may be a wrong choice of my own at this point).

Also of course, there are pretty easy false friends even when they seem similar:
Slimme Jungen (NL) != Schlimme Jungs (GER)
smart boys <-> bad boys

El gato != the gate ;)
 
Pyramid Earth anyone?

It has been been a while since I last needed to rely on a few basic Netherland language skills - though its barely 1hour drive to the borders.
There was a door "trekken" and stupid me reads "drücken", so I push and nothing happens - not recognizing that a farmers vehicle "Traktor" is pulling heavy loads rather than pushing them 🤣
Also whenever I hear Navi telling me to use "de derde afslaag" I at first think I am at the 3rd hole at a golf course. 🙄
All jokes aside, this is what happens when one is misinterpreting foreign languages because of either similarities or out of wrong habbits.
