Everyone is so impressed by that black hole picture but it doesnā€™t do shit for me tbh.

Itā€™s more of the fact that it could be done than the image itself. In a way, itā€™s literally looking at ā€œnothingā€.

Yeah. This. The lead scientist devoted over 2 (I think maybe even more) years of her life collecting data and doing countless amounts of tests to see if it could happen and it finally did.

Edit: she collected over 5 petabytes (over 5.2 MILLION GIGS) of data to make that one photo happen.

She also had a TED talk 2 years ago saying it was possible and weā€™d be able to do it within 2 years time.

This may not be a major thing to a normal person but in the science and astronomy field this is beyond historic and the definition of ground breaking.

It is more that scientist figured out how to photograph an object that just donā€™t absorb light, but also pulls light into it self. We got now visual evidence of an object that should be impossible to see. Scientist took Petabytes of radio signal data from 8 different Radio Telescopes and combine them in a super computer to get one image. Data from additional radio telescopes can improve the quality of the image.

Goes to show you that human beings can do amazing things when the right minds are working towards a common goal . . . . and then there is Congress.

damn she is one serious cutieā€¦ Iā€™d absolutely ravage the HELL out of thatā€¦ even despite her unfortunate booty deficiency. The world would be a better place with more cute nerdy girls out there.

How often do you guys shave your faces?

I canā€™t really grow facial hair. The most facial hair Iā€™ve had was a half ass attempt at a goatee when I was in my early 20ā€™s. It took me over a year and a half to grow. I fucking hated it but my girlfriend at the time loved it and kept wanting me to grow it out. As soon as we broke up I shaved it. Lol.

I can usually go for 3-4 months before I even notice facial hair but Iā€™m just too lazy to shave it. I wait until itā€™s more noticeable or to the point where I canā€™t traditionally shave it. then I just go to the barber and get a straight razor shave.

I like to be pampered. Lol

Wtf??? How is that even possible?

I shave every 2nd day.

Man Iunno. I just donā€™t. Both my grandpa and my dad werenā€™t able to grow any real kind of facial hair until well into early 40ā€™s. Like, my dad would have the occasional mustache but itā€™d look laughably bad so heā€™d end up shaving it a week or so later after it fully grew in. Now he shaves like every other day unless he wants to grow his beard out.

I dislike facial hair (and body hair in general) though. I love growing my hair out but likeā€¦any other body hair is just gross to me. On me anyways.

I think beards are good looking on dudes but itā€™s gotta be within reason. Not like Paul Bunyan, Lumberjack hipster beard but likeā€¦business casual beard? My best friend can grow a REALLY nice business casual beard and it looks GREAT on him. I always get unreasonably angry at him whenever he shaves it.

I havenā€™t shaved with a razor in probably over 5 years. Razor bumps are hell. For the most part I keep a full beard. If I do cut it off, itā€™s with a set of clippers. Last time I styled it differently was for my wedding, and that was almost two years ago.

Nice.

Check out KYUUSYOKUHIMINOU vs V3+ live now (FightCade). KYUUSYOKUHIMINOU is New Sagat.

What the hell is a casual business beard lol. But yeah I donā€™t grow my facial hair I like my ā€œbabyā€ look I guess. People say I look like 26-27 ( Iā€™m 33). Also fuck hipster beards we got ton of those here. To me it looks like everyone is copying themselves and those people all look alike. For some reason they have a beard but still look like pussies.

Likeā€¦Iunno. Itā€™s hard to explain. I donā€™t want to post his picture on a forum to a bunch of randoā€™s but likeā€¦something like this just a little thicker

Summary

I call it his business casual beard because heā€™s an accountant at a bank and theyā€™re not allowed to have the lumberjack super long beards but can have facial hair within reason.

You won 7 matches.
He won 8.

If youā€™re missing basic math like that, you have some bigger issues.

Should I suggest a game more your speed?

P.S. You actually keep track of high score?! LMAO

Disregarding the technical achievements that lead to this discovery, weā€™re looking at visual confirmation of an object that is completely counterintuitive to how we see the world on day to day basis.

Weā€™ve been bombarded with so many theories and sci-fi movie stuff about black holes that itā€™s now a part of the cultural consciousness to the point where the pecularity of such a thing has been somewhat muted, but truly thinking about the fact that weā€™re essentially seeing a torn hole in space-time is insaneā€” a star that has collapsed in on itself infinitely to create a singularity of infinite density and zero volume.
