Surely you’ll get terrible chromatic aberration. That’s got to be the only reason it’s never been made commercially available.
It seems so simple

The optical machanics of this make zero sense. A spherical lense’s focal points lie in a straight line so the only undistorted image you can get from this is with the black hole between you and the tv

If you’re really attached to that bed and TV placement you could also just use mirrors? Idk seems easier
0ops@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Or a chair?
henfredemars@infosec.pub 11 months ago
I have personally never owned a chair and at this point I’m afraid to.

Gonna have to be binoculars too
xthexder@l.sw0.com 11 months ago
Or a curved mirror for built-in zoom!

Black hole that only bends light… interesting concept. I’d gravitate to calling this unholy.

The only remedy is attending mass more often.

I always see those events on the horizon, but I dare not go to the Holy Ghost or how that one is called.

You could also use a mirror. And then a set of binoculars, so it doesn’t look so small.
hakunawazo@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Two mirrors if you don’t want your screen flipped.

Plus you would get way more sleep. The downside is you will age faster than the population.

The upside is you will age slower than the population.

You are so wise

It’s time dilation. Meaning it makes stuff take longer.
Mr_Blott@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Have you thought about moving your TV, OP?
odium@programming.dev 11 months ago
Heresy

You’d be cooked by the radiation emitted by the accretion disk,
Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 11 months ago
what you’re saying is that it would also give me free heating? sweet
Moira_Mayhem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 months ago
I can guarantee you’d be at least warm for the rest of your life!

Does everyone think you need to be in bed to watch TV? There’s a couch there.
Shard@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Couch is strictly for casting purposes only.
Sheltr@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Just lay down the other way with your feet to the head board silly. 🪿
geekworking@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Get a long swing out arm for the TV. Swing it 90 degrees. [LikeThis] (a.co/d/htnnZWA)
possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
There way is simpler
Brkdncr@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Sleep on the couch. That bed is for guests only.
OpenStars@startrek.website 11 months ago
lettruthout@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Have you thought about spinning the bed by 180 degrees, OP?
DudeImMacGyver@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Use a projector
otter@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
I’d imagine you would get some pretty horrible distortion in the picture. That has to be why we haven’t done it yet.
kusivittula@sopuli.xyz 11 months ago
that and we can’t yet get below EU’s accepted limit of hawking radiation
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Lol … gets up to move the black hole around to find the perfect angle
