They joke, but last week it was shortened to 10^78. At this rate, we’ve only got about six weeks left.

Do black holes evaporate trillions of trillions of times faster than expected? Supermassive ones were expected to take around 10^100 years.

Why is there a (presumably AI-generated) Earth on fire for the "end of the universe", when the Earth would be way gone far sooner than that (that is, in a few billion years when the Sun blows up to a red giant)? It's pretty misleading in my opinion, as it makes it seem like a doomsday apocalypse kind of scenario.

The catching on fire doesn't make sense either, as the end of the universe will likely be very very cold (a heat death, some might say).

At that point everything will be iron or black holes, so no fire.

Not to mention the continents looking just like the ones today. That image is implying in at most a few million years the earth will burn

Sorry, that's outside of the cancelation window. You'll have to pay full price for the visit.

Fair enough. Just bill me on the date of the appointment.

How'd they get a dentist appointment booked so soon? Must have booked early. Lucky

If the universe collapses back into a singular point, and time slows at the edge of a black hole, then wouldn't I the end be functionally an infinite time away? 🤔

From what reference frame?
