    I’d imagine you would get some pretty horrible distortion in the picture. That has to be why we haven’t done it yet.

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

      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

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

    You could also use a mirror. And then a set of binoculars, so it doesn’t look so small.

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

    You’d be cooked by the radiation emitted by the accretion disk,

    edit: It would be a VERY tiny accretion disk but it would still act like a cracked out microwave magnetron
