Light bends with gravity, and it will circle the black hole at the event horizon. However, there is no trajectory of photons around a black hole that would form anything like a Möbius strip. Two circular rays along a sphere (great circles) do look like a Möbius strip st first glance but they cross twice, not once (and strictly speaking the famously single edge of the Möbius strip never crosses itself, only its 2D representation does). I think OP is just being incoherent, look at their other posts.

  • Everything is attracted towards the event horizon, the surface of a sphere around a black hole from which nothing, even light, escapes. Things that aren't as fast as light get trapped when within a larger sphere. What does a Möbius strip have to do with that?

    This comes from a 1986 holiday special of the very good Czechoslovak Arabella fantasy TV series, but unlike the (arguably better) Star Wars one, not enough angry people called the TV station so it's been rebroadcast since on the short-lived Slovak ":3" channel. A German Arabella fan uploaded it to YouTube taking great effort to make German subtitles, way more than the shit content deserves.

    This scene is part of a four-season-themed ice skating revue. I chose it because it has the most furries in the entire film, to match the TV logo. And yes, the animals with crude suits appear several other times in the film, here's a close-up of the fox as air attendant

    Translation:

    (Before start of clip) The Snow Queen can freeze almost anything with her wind, her icy touch.
    Except one thing.
    The love in the hearts of people who love each other.
    Which is why Christmas is a holiday of love.

    (First stanza of a well-known Czech carol)

    ♪ We wish you health, happiness and holy peace.
    ♪ To the major-domo and the children too.
    ♪ We come from far away, we're bringing news
    ♪ Of what just happened in the town of Betlehem.

    Have trans people finally upgraded to software with Unicode 15 support? Android 13, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Windows 11 22H2, macOS 13.3, iOS 16.4...

    !unixsocks@lemmy.blahaj.zone users provide the best data but can we use that to generalize? Joining us are !onehundredninetysix users to debate on how representative neofetch screenshots are of the trans population.

    As for "has this happened before"? Well, of all Wayback Machine snapshots:

    I just saw !germanrap@feddit.de as #6 in Communities/All (sorted by Hot) (web archive) on feddit.org. This feels weird because the feddit.de server has been down for almost 2 years and the community seems to have no content (the home server cannot be contacted to verify but no posts seem to have been federated to other popular instances like feddit.org) and obviously never will have. As for the subscriber count, feddit.org keeps its own tally, which is currently (archive) at 64. This does not include new subscribers after the last federation with feddit.de, except local ones. These can also be checked separately, and the number is... one. This suggests that only one person ever subscribed to !germanrap@feddit.de in the past 1.5 years (as far as feddit.org, a 1k-weekly-active-user instance, is concerned), and yet the community is very high in Hot for a day.

    Obviously, the visibility of the Communities/All (by Hot) list varies by client, for example Voyager shows it unsolicited as "Trending communities" in the Search pane, and even though Lemmy devs didn't include it prominently in default Lemmy UI, they definitely have considered the value of this list in mind since it's made the shortlist in Lemmy's API benchmarks.

    It's probably okay, it can walk and fly.

    I tried giving it some bread but it wasn't paying any attention to it. I shoved it closer, which scared the poor guy and it flew on a first floor windowsill across the street. That's probably for the best, it could easily fall victim to a dog otherwise. I threw the bread up there but it seemed tired from the flight and sat in the shade. Most of the bread was gone the next day, and so was the pigeon.

    I was really surprised by how long the young ones' beaks are, I first thought it could be a corvid.

     

    Eggcorns (Wikipedia / YouTube video by RobWords) are language mistakes that sometimes take over and change the spelling and perhaps even the meaning of a word. This is rare in German because there's fewer homophones but in this episode of Wort der Woche, DW explains how "munttot" became "mundtot". Available as audio or transcript.

     

    Yup, this is real, recorded 15 minutes before the new year.

    Also see our top-of-the-2010s Christmas song Půlnoční, whose music video features the building on midnight of New Year's. Since I was there shortly before that time, I told all people willing to listen.

     

    Yup, it's real. How did it get into production with

    • a flattened back tire with central hub very off-center,
    • right pedal on the left side, and very far below the cyclist's leg,
    • chain routing defying common sense,
    • and a disjointed left glass?

    At least the socks seem to be classic low-res stitch art likely by humans...

     

    WebP does everything GIF did, just better. The only problem is adoption. Maybe a similar, single-syllable name could have helped.

    • Ends the pronunciation debate: hard G in the 1987 filetype, soft G in the 2010 one
    • Looping soundless video gets a name that's short and does not refer to a terribly inefficient format (that "gif" sharing sites often no longer use anyway), plus some wrong people have been using it already
    • Software peer-pressured into supporting it (nobody wants to hear "they don't support JIF" about their software)
