Forgot to include the image of "this picture" from the quoted section.

"Lastly, I am curious what you make of this picture and others like it. I have never seen a flat-earther provide a valid explanation for how that is possible on a flat earth. If one could be provided, I'd actually change my mind on this topic, but I have never seen it, and I don't believe it's possible based on simple geometry."

Maybe this is what you're referring to, but you don't say so I don't really know what you're pointing at. 
But NOTICE how the sun is fattened out at the bottom as it goes over the horizon.
That widening effect is making the sun look like it is not circular (but we know it is) so it must be an illusion.
Something is going on in the atmosphere for that to happen.
The same kind of thing happens when the moon rises full in the east, at certain times of the year.
But in the moon's case it looks BIGGER all over, and round, which is even more impressive.

So, when I first started looking into flat earth, I didn't think it likely that I would come around to accepting it.

But the evidence seems to be stacking up strongly in favor of flat earth.

1 ) cities, mountains, other objects that are clearly visible (and obviously not just refraction or "mirage") from distances at which globe earth math would make it impossible

2 ) strong evidence of NASA (and SpaceX) fakery

3 ) sun spots on the top of clouds when sun is allegedly 93 million miles away

4 ) lots of independent (not NASA controlled) footage from high enough where curvature should be visible ... and yet it's not, and where the horizon remains at eye level

5 ) flight plans that don't make any sense except for against a flat earth map

6 ) prohibition of free Antarctic exploration

7 ) moonlight being cooler than surrounding area

8 ) surveyors and engineers ignoring earth curvature

9) NASA images of globe earth are clearly (and admittedly CGI) ... with differing shapes of continents, cut-and-paste repeated cloud patterns, no satellites visible

10) fake Mars rover pictures, obvious green-screened and otherwise faked "astronaut" footage

11) Piccard's pre-NASA statement that the earth looks like a circular disc with upturned edges

12) sun changing size in the sky when it's allegedly 93 million miles away

[this is just off the top of my head, as I'm sure there's more]

On the globe earth side, I see ...

1) the Antarctica problem ... long periods of sunlight where there should be less sunlight according to a flat earth model

2) alleged flights over Antarctica

So the Antarctica problems remains the final obstacle to my being able to completely embrace flat earth.

So, flat earthers, what do you say about the Antarctica issue?  If the circuмference of the Antarctica is so big, why is there so much sunlight during "Southern Hemisphere" summer?  Is light bouncing off the dome or something?

How about this flight plan?
New York - Río Gallegos (Argentina) - Perth (Australia) - Beijing (China) - New York (USA)
Aboard an Airbus A340-500, flight scheduled to take off in October 2018:
