A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Why waste time and fuel going all the way to the location of a black hole (not to mention that all the radiation near it isn't going to be good for the ship) plust the delta-V to reduce their speed until they actually are not in orbit anymore and fall down into it?
Best just jettison them out of the airlock without a suit in the middle of nowhere.
