It takes a googol years for a supermassive black hole to decay. How long is that? If you had an hourglass w/ a grain of sand for every particle in the universe, and 1 grain fell every 10 billion years, when it ran out you’d be < 1% thru the black hole’s life. h/t @Kurz_Gesagt — PolitiTweet.org

Screenshot hotkeys that copy to clipboard should be the default. Much more useful than files on the desktop. https://t.co/2oXoIx4yEj

New favorite Mac app. Allows me to hide desktop icons, which I barely ever access from the desktop anyway. So deliciously clean without any icons. https://t.co/pOKNzhQC81 — PolitiTweet.org

To explain a bit more: a lake can flow outwards but if ocean water flows into it, it’s not a lake. Mediterranean Sea water flows into the Black Sea via the Bosporus Strait and ocean water flows into the Mediterranean via the Strait of Gibraltar (Atlantic) and Suez Canal (Indian). — PolitiTweet.org

The Caspian Sea is really the Caspian Lake. It gets to be the world’s biggest lake because the Black Sea, which is 17% bigger by area, is not technically a lake because it exchanges water with both the Atlantic and Indian Oceans via the Mediterranean.
