yeah but everybody else would be sleeping so it would still take longer

But not by much longer. People on the other side of the world or connected to satellites monitoring sunspots would notice pretty much immediately after the light ceases to reach the earth

Most of us sleep at night and don’t check our info-hose feeds until we wake up.

Sleep is for people who don’t know how to write code!

No dude, it’s only a difference of 1.3 seconds, faster then the Internet unfortunately.

the other side of the world wouldn’t notice there suddenly being no light anymore if there wasn’t light in the first place.
they would notice that the moon disappeared though

Ok, first thing, did you not understand the image is a joke? Secondly, you have failed so badly at trying to use logic. And you’d notice it everywhere on the earth, both because of the moon and also just light scattering, it would become darker than ever before. And as said, most people would be asleep on the dark side, which is obvious. And it’s not like the astronomers etc. have some kind of worldwide siren to get everyone’s attention, most people wouldn’t notice it for a while, even if they posted about it online.

And even if you’re not connected at the moment, the moon will go dark.
LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Good one! If the moon isn’t visible and you were just sitting outside say at midnight, I wonder if you would notice anything different.

It would turn pitch black. So dark the stars far away would be the brightest when compared to everything else. It would be scary.

According to astronomers the sun doesn’t have a measurable effect on the night sky when it’s more than 18 degrees below the horizon. So I doubt naked-eye observers would notice.
