Does goofy Python ASCII art count?

Something for the physics nerds like @xj900uk and @Drac Morbis lol

So I've been torturing ChatGPT for a couple hours to spit out this thing for me... A cute little ASCII black hole simulation.

Features:
- gravitational lens distortion (well, logarithmic approximation with 2-dimensional angular mirroring effect to be exact. Rough but it works)
- altering trajectory of passing objects depending on distance
- the accretion disk grows and distortion effect increases as objects pass by (resets when it gets too large)
- in case of a head-on collision, object gets gradually pulled in, broken to pieces and 'consumed'
- hilarious texts, because I never grew up beyond the level of an 8yo
- random selection of ascii objects

Otherwise it's just objects flying from left to right... So kinda like a terminal screensaver I guess. Idk if I wanna do much more with it. (No, it doesn't play music.)

(Just some clips thrown together, my screen recorder has some issue with the bottom part of the screen, but objects fly off to the bottom too)

Something fancier:

Still goofing around with it

Thanks, Mr TailsWin. Great fun. Reminded me a lot of the early DOS-based graphics from the late 70's & early 80's
