And... the other 10?

The hard plastic ones tend to hurt my ears

I'm really not even a little bit following what you're trying to say. What units are you using? What does the Sagittarius A* have to do with anything? What scale factor are you talking about? Mass? Volume? "Mass of electron cloud equivalent to black hole" what electron cloud? Where are you pulling these numbers?

Mass isn't what determines if a singularity forms. Density is. Enough mass has to be formed in small enough volume to form a singularity. Mass more most matter would have to multiply by many many orders of magnitude for a planet to form one. Adding a single election to each atom doesn't do that.

Maybe charge can play a factor, but I don't really have any idea how exactly or how significant it is.

In the example in from that what if, they are putting a universe's worth of mass in the volume of the moon, so it would create a super massive singularity. That's not what is happening in here.

If every atom suddenly gained an electron, they would indeed increase in mass. But a hydrogen atoms would gain the most relative mass as it is the lightest atom, and that would only be an increase of 1/1837th of its total mass now, so... not that much. Masses of heavier atoms and the macro level matter made from them would increase in mass even more marginally. It would be a negligible difference, definitely not be enough for a singularity to form from this increase alone unless a star's core were already riding that edge.

So their original determination would still be correct, that molecules would fly apart (atomized) and explode outward into the vacuum of space. Now, maaaaybe if the explosive force were enough to cause atoms to collide in space and at relativistic speeds, tiny singularities might form. But their combined negative charge would be far more powerful than their gravitational pull, and they would decay almost immediately, so... no crunch.

Grain of salt: I love physics, but I'm not a physicist.

Extra electrons make atoms go 'splodey.

Hey those fucking atom bastards are nothing but negativity. They know what they did.

"It went off."

"It" is not an animate thing. "It" is not capable of firing itself. "It" is a mechanical object whose function depends on an outside actor moving it's parts to cause its actions. "It" is a gun and someone loaded it, handled it, and pulled "It's" trigger while "It" was pointed at your daughter. "It" didn't "go off". You fired a gun at your daughter. Intentionally or accidentally, with malice or negligence, it really doesn't change the fact that you killed your daugher.

You know how when you put magnet faces together with the same polarity, they push against each other. If you squeeze them together they will pop away. When an atom has an extra electron, it makes its charge more negative. If all of the atoms have extra electrons, all of their charges will be more negative. Now imagine every single atom in the universe was suddenly the same polarity and began pushing all other atoms away. I'll let your imagination take over from there.

So you've reminded me of another player. I've been watching a playthrough of the game recently on Chert's Research Notes's YouTube channel. He knows the game forward and backward, but he's been having his girlfriend play the game completely blind. It's been a good watch. She's completed the main game and is a good way into the dlc now. But even after all this time, she still struggles with the simple things sometimes. Not just figuring out the puzzles, which are obviously challenging, but little stuff too. Navigating around places she's been a dozen times, remembering she has certain tools, reading the button prompts right in the middle of the screen, noticing literally anything on the periphery of he screen... she has stared down secrets directly in front of her and didn't notice on a few occasions. She has her boyfriend as moral support and backup, but even then she gets quite frustrated sometimes. But when she getting frustrated, they do a good job of stopping, setting the controller down, talking out the stress, and then either taking a break or going back to playing. It's all target wholesome, I must say.

It can be taxing feeling like you're beating your head against a problem, or struggling with the controls or navigation. Don't let yourself get to the point of exhaustion or anger. If you're starting to feel anxious or frustrated, just stop, collect your thoughts, talk it out with a friend, step away if necessary, then come back at it fresh. Reread the ship logs any time you're confused, and go explore a space that it says you haven't fully explored. The beauty of this game is that it takes notes for you and only collects information that you actually need. Everything in the logs is important. Maybe try to crack a different puzzle if you have one you just can't figure out. You'd be Surprised how coming back to it later can really help. And of it's really just not clicking, you can always ask for hints.

If it's just not your thing, that's fine too. Hope you are able up enjoy something else instead.

 

This is from the last election in 2020. How fun that it's still relevant!
