Epic WTF

Did LOL

Except it’s not because light can’t escape a black hole, nor other wave lengths like sound or radio

So down on black holes, if that black hole wants to let it's hair down, take off its glasses, put on a dress and sing then let it sing. You sing all you want to black hole, I bet you could be prom queen too.

I don't get this at all, weren't Q people anti-science, anti-medicine, anti-technology? I would have imagined they'd be sceptical of futuristic medical devices. How is 5G the government trying to control people's brains and this isn't seen the same way?

Because they are all fucking stupid.

They're just against real science, they love a bit of woo. See the amount of New Age hippy homeopathic types who've gone down the rabbit hole.

Hawking Radiation says otherwise, although that's not directly relevant to this, and then there's gravitation waves. But I believe what's being demonstrated there is energy generated by the compression that matter undergoes as it gets close to the black hole. Energy generated by the effects of the black hole, outside the black hole, in the accretion disk.

In other black hole news, looks like we're about to get our first decent picture of SgA* ( is that the right nomenclature?), the supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy.

So pretty soon the black holes will be dropping their greatest hits album. I hope they do a tour soon. I suppose it would have to be stadiums only

Calcutta first stop on the tour.

Boom boom!

I know of two people whom have terminal cancer.

One has been alive for at least 8 years, how the fuck does that work? Then his partner is a friend to your face and berates you behind your back. Yet that couple still have friends.

Is it a case of some sort of personality disorder?

Then again I have been in a place where a guy believed he was Andy McNabb, while another believed he was a son of god.

Quite exciting!

I have been in a place where a guy believed he was Andy McNabb

A mate's old flatmate was a bit like that. He'd more or less served in the places he said he'd served but as support staff, not the unit of the special forces he alleged. The very sad thing was that when it all came out he was bullshitting, he was obviously very embarrassed and moved/stopped communicating with people but, as I said, his actual army service was very good, albeit just a little dull.

Reminds me of an old colleague who tells everybody that he has PTSD from combat in Iraq but in reality was an admin in HR support services and the most combat he saw in his career was Excel formula errors in Aldershot or wherever he was based.

terminal cancer.

One has been alive for at least 8 years,

With treatments & trial treatments this is possible, it can still be terminal.

In space, no one can hear you … wail.

Until today.

It sounds like someone’s pumped a sound into Paul stretch and just stretched it out by 10000% or something

Hell is other people's Excel spreadsheets

Hell is just Excel - to me! I get stressed even thinking about it.

What about it stresses you? Excel is the best of the MS Office products, the least overloaded with useless extra features. The data flows you can set up in spreadsheets are the closest most people will ever get to functional programming (don't say that too loudly, though; it'll put some idiots off).

I fall into the idiot category. I also don’t seem to have much need of spreadsheets generally.
Very recently I did have a reason to use it and it worked well - once someone showed me what to do. Still stressed though 😁

Likewise, I rarely use and am not competent. My wife on the other hand is unbelievably clever (except in choosing me as a husband) and lives in a world of powerpoint and excel presentations.

I have taken an hour producing a chart for a building project (not knowing how to highlight cells, freeze panes etc) which would have taken her a couple of minutes. It further accentuates how stupid i am at this stuff.

Like everything, practice makes perfect. I don’t have much need to use it very often hence my worry! Guy I work with swears by it but he does different things than I do.

That’s the issue, I use it to compile expenses for tax returns and then about one other thing a year. With no regular use I have no idea where functions are hidden and spend more time looking up where I can find the tools for calculations, freezing panes, highlighting cells etc.
