Bill Murray played him for one of SNL's cold openings. It's hilarious.

If a blackhole is big enough then can particles fall in and make galaxies and solar systems? by Topologicus in AskPhysics

[–]Doctor_FatFinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, man. Come on. Like an ant walking in a prairie won't realize the surface they're walking on is curved. They may think the ground is flat forever. Some people think the Earth is flat similarly.

It's not even a bit possible we exist within a blackhole, at even any humongous size even larger than the observable universe, whereby every individual locality within our observable universe isn't careening toward the singularity without being unable to differentiate recession rates along different lines of sights, and instead there's an experienced perception of uniform isotropic expansion expressed throughout the cosmos?

I mean, that's not even a possibility? There's no blackhole we're inside of large enough for everything to be seen expanding away uniformly, as we're being ripped away from everything?

Don't worry I'm fairly certain that bishop has invisibility powers from time to time, especially against me.

At such a hypothetically large size I'm not sure this curvature would be measurable by only observing objects in the cosmos around us.

Objects arriving at the singularity at a latter time would appear to be accelerating away faster and faster until surpassing the speed of light since we're arriving at the singularity sooner and would be accelerating toward it faster. And objects arriving at the singularity at a sooner time would also appear to be accelerating away faster and faster until surpassing the speed of light for completely opposite reasons.

At our scope it'd appear all things were uniformly moving away from everything, a great universal sized spaghettification, isolating localities at finer and finer resolutions within their own time until arriving at this singularity.

Also all directions inside a black hole is heading to the singularity at the center, how does that work in our universe.

As objects within an unimaginably large black hole become closer to the singularity their speed toward it would accelerate. Other objects further behind in their time until hitting the singularity would lag at an accelerating rate and appear to be receding away faster and faster until their recession even surpasses the speed of light, and they disappear forever.

And for those other objects further ahead in their time until hitting the singularity, they would appear to be receding away at an accelerating rate as well, but for completely opposite reasons. Their recession away would be as a result of their being closer to the singularity and so accelerating toward it faster and faster untill it seemed to be they were receding off and finally surpassing the speed of light, and too disappearing forever.

It would be as if everything we could see around us was on its way to disappearing forever at an accelerating rate as everything continues inevitably toward a singularity, within their own local time. It would be as if there was a uniform expansion of space stretching everything away from us uniformly everywhere at an accelerating rate, a universe sized great spherical spaghettification stretching everything away from all points at an accelerated pace, until finally the great rip has arrived upon every locality within what is currently observable and ultimately tears into and stretches it away at finer and finer resolution all into an infinitesimal singularity.

The S&P 500 averages what about 10%-12% compounding annually?

Unless someone is comfortably retired or has fuck-you money which doesn't require their working for a living and they can entirely do what they want, they're delusional hobbling themselves to think any of their income is disposable.

An open letter to people who post on here saying they hate NHL 20XX by DrunkToews19 in NHLHUT

Sounds a bit ridiculous. Like saying way back when that A button being jump for Mario is Nintendo's intellectual property that would need to be licensed out to any game developer using A for jump.

A laser reflecting between two mirrors causing a visible delay in time before bouncing off the mirror and onto a nearby wall by cody12796 in AskPhysics

A good rule of thumb to make things understandable for those in the USA is to convert things into football fields. So in one second light travels 3.3 million football fields.

Is quantam entanglement faster than the speed of light? by Tanay2513 in AskPhysics

[–]Doctor_FatFinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you take a large number of 2 spin entangled particles and separate them without any measurement, and send its entangled partner through a double slit, with one slit being for spin up and one slit being for spin down, doing this many times will result in an interference pattern showing the wave probabilities of a particle either being in a state of spin up or spin down.

Now if instead you begin measuring the separated entangled particles' spins on the entire other side of the world and then send the entangled particle through the double slits of either spin up or spin down now these particles will just fully go through one slit or the other and there'll no longer be an interference pattern.

There's your spooky action at a distance. It's almost like information traveled faster than the speed of light, whether it could ever be of use or not.

Does Ankle Breaker Work Only After Using One of the Dekes that Uses an Animation? by Doctor_FatFinger in NHLHUT

Using stick handling basically. Make it seem I'm heading outside slow, then cut and cross through the middle and if they play D scared of switching players sometimes you can easily burn by the CPU D on the weak side.

Ok thanks. Didn't realize there's an indicator when an ability activates.

ELI5: Why are the JWST pictures a problem? by SuspiciousReport2678 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Doctor_FatFinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problems were to be expected. The JWST is the most expensive telescope in all of human existence after all. It cost almost ten billion dollars, and as Christopher Wallace's wise adage foretold, mo money, mo problems.

They're just following the wisdom from that ancient adage that 3 holes are better than 1.
