Black holes are not decaying because there's an infalling virtual particle carrying negative energy; that's another fantasy devised by Hawking to "save" his insufficient analogy. Instead, black holes are decaying, and losing mass over time, because the energy emitted by this Hawking radiation is slowly reducing the curvature of space in that region.

What most of you (non-flatards) are searching for.

Eh, that was mildly interesting. Thanks.

Well then, that clears things up!

The article mentions that everything that curves spacetime emits hawking radiation. Does that also include elementary particles? I'm having a hard time seeing how an electron would decay, or into what.

It's got to be quarks or photons.

In addition to charge, energy and momentum conservation there are other conservation laws that determine how a particle can or can't decay. Lepton number must be conserved, for example. This is also why particle creation happens in matter-antimatter pairs--it conserves those quantities. Either an electron can't decay, or it can decay and there is new physics to be found here.

Black holes don't exist. Neither does the big bang. He wasted his life.

“Steven Hawking, world’s smartest man” is a hoax anyway. No one lives nearly that long with ALS. The man in that wheelchair is literally a puppet for atheism and globetard cosmology.

was, it's dead now. died in 2018. agreed though, seems fishy and the tech that he could allegedly speak through is questionable.

It’s the perfect crime for broadcasting a prepared script under the guise of the “world’s smartest man” and only participating in preplanned, prescripted interviews, under the pretense that it takes him a long time to say a few words.

Not dead in 2018. They just ended the program. That actor retired or got reassigned. The real Hawking died pretty early on, but he was working for Intelligence too and probably helped rehearse his replacement as he waned.
