You got me! I did not know we had that. Thanks. Which one is that?

(I guess we also have the images of the light surrounding black hole in the center of our galaxy, which is also quite far away, and has quite som pixels. Although it is also larger than a typical star.)

Except that it’s wrong. Space is cool, and Betelgeuse is impressive, but that isn’t how it looks.

The star is out of focus, and the movement is due to the earths atmosphere. I could get that visual with my phone and a handheld binocular.

Any image of a star (except for our own sun), which is more than just a point of light, is a faulty representation. It’s misleading. Share cool stuff, but let’s not say things that we don’t know to be true.

Actually i just said something that i assumed to be true, but wasn’t

““Any image of a star (except for our own sun), which is more than just a point of light, is a faulty representation.””

Turns out we do have ‘higher’ resolution pictures of stars, thanks to raoul. I’m sorry. mistakes were made. I’ll go on my lunchbreak now and think about what I’ve done.

Freaky guy.

They do it for efficiency, like ducklings after their mother. Have you ever seen a large boat from above? The wake spreads out behind it, in this v-shape. It’s like a wave following the boat, and the ducklings can “surf” on the v-shaped wave, after their mother, and they don’t have to paddle as hard.

“That’s right, a one-stop shop for AI slop is incoming”, brilliant sentence.

Bro needs to selfhost at some point.

Does the simple webversion count? I am using the qwant browser on android.

That’s alright. Thanks though.

Yeah, but why wouldn’t it be a good choice?

What’s up with protonpass? Any pointers?
