NASA actually created an animation simulating what it would look like to fall into a black hole. In short, you’d see the outside universe warped into a circle directly opposite the direction of the singularity, with black all around it. This is ignoring the accretion disk that the other commenter pointed out, although that sits well outside the event horizon and I’m not sure off the top of my head how much of that light escapes inwards towards the black hole versus outwards.

yoevli@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•As a Nurse who works nation wide I have seen the effects of narcan on heroin,meth,acid and such. But what would happen to a person who is really really high on weed?English16·3 months agoSomeone please correct me if I’m mistaken, but Narcan (naloxone) is not used for overdoses on non-opiod drugs like meth or LSD. As other commenters have pointed out it specifically binds to opioid receptors, so it’s not going to be useful for a drug that operates via a different primary mechanism. The same goes for THC, which binds to cannabinoid receptors instead. Frankly, I would expect a medical professional to just know this.
yoevli@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What if you legitimately don't remember the alphabet that well during a field sobriety test because you never use it?English2·4 months agoYou should verbally indicate that you don’t wish to answer questions rather than staying totally silent. That said, there are circumstances where cooperating can make your life easier if you’re able to easily and clearly dispel the officer’s suspicion, though this is highly dependent on situation and the specific cop you’re dealing with. If you are doing something wrong the best thing is always to stfu.

yoevli@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•What are the silliest reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?English3·5 months agoNot to interject, but when people talk about using “Linux” they’re generally referring to desktop Linux (usually GNU/Linux). ChromeOS and SteamOS are Linux distros of a sort under the hood, but they’re also highly curated experiences. Android technically uses the Linux kernel but architecturally it’s so drastically different from basically any other system using it that it’s quite misleading to call it “Linux” in the colloquial sense.

I can understand some deviation within a particular game, but that figure is so far off that I kind of suspect he just made it up on the spot.

Good on the PSF for doing the right thing and calling this garbage out for what it is.

yoevli@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•am I the only one getting HTTP Error 403: Forbidden when executing yt-dlp from the terminal on debian?English4·6 months agoThe article you linked is describing how to set a static internal IP address (i.e. the address your computer uses within your local network) whereas YouTube would be seeing your external IP address (which is typically assigned automatically by your ISP). I’m not sure what the parent comment is referring to with “changing” their address, but I would assume they’re probably using a VPN or something similar so that YouTube sees the address of the current VPN server instead.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen it written so I assumed it was spelled “jipped” and never made the connection.

yoevli@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•if you use GrapheneOS on a pixel device, is it something you'd recommend for a privacy worried user? How seamless is running it after install?English11·8 months agoIt’s overall a pretty good experience, but there’s occasional weirdness you may run into. For instance, up until a month or two ago I was encountering a bug that caused my phone to basically slow to a crawl after running Android Auto for 20 minutes or so, with a reboot being the only solution. This happened once while I was driving somewhere unfamiliar and it took about 5 minutes to start back up due to app optimization (which, incidentally, I don’t remember being a thing on other Android flavors after 2018 or so) so it turned into a whole adventure.
There’s also a fairly persistent issue I’ve run into where GrapheneOS starts very aggressively killing background apps, like as soon as another app gains focus. Not sure what that’s about but I haven’t really encountered it on other Android versions to the same extent, so I’m inclined to think it’s GOS-specific.

yoevli@lemmy.worldto Arch Linux@lemmy.ml•[arch-announce] Plasma 6.4.0 will need manual intervention if you are on X11 - Arch-announce - lists.archlinux.orgEnglish2·10 months agoIf you have to resort to browsing the web with a TUI every time you’re dropped into a tty then you really should think about using a different distro. When I was using it I didn’t take my laptop anywhere without having a live disk with a bunch of distros on me as well.
Also, Arch is very well known for requiring manual interventions in various scenarios and it’s really not for users who aren’t at least somewhat comfortable in a terminal. That’s not to gatekeep; it just genuinely doesn’t make much sense for someone like that compared to a more “on rails” distro. If they choose to use Arch then that’s their prerogative, but it’s not the distro’s responsibility to hold their hand when the express expectation is that users keep up with distro news and are capable of administrating their own system.
I just want to add that apart from time dilation, velocity also causes length contraction wherein an object will be measured as shorter when it’s moving relative to the observer versus from its own rest frame. I’ve always found it (and time dilation) to be very unintuitive to reason about with my monkey brain - relativity in general is just super weird.
