If you're looking directly into the eye of the black hole now, it means that was the position 657 million years ago. Gamma-ray speed is the same as visible light, which mean they arrive at the same time.
However, GRB's spread out over 2°-20°, severely reducing its effect over distance.
Which means it has to be pretty close to do any damage. (It would have to be in our part of the Milkyway.)

The ozone layer would be the first major crisis following a gamma-ray burst, and that happens at roughly 3000 light years.
So we have a safety factor of x219000

In the case of Black Holes the face and ass are indistinguishable.

You need to end your sentence with "/s" when being sarcastic, otherwise it's impossible to know without reading your comment history.

The english term is ‘being pedantic”.

In 2004, 6 years before before Orban. Orban is the re-elected autocrat who is hellbent on stripping the country of any and all democratic values. (But still have "elections")
Not saying they were peachy before, but then again, who is.

Exactly. It's what Russia refers to as "satanism". How else are you going to make individual liberty sound like something you don't want.

>destroyed the landscape of unions
This thing alone is proof enough that they prefer corporate control over worker rights. I do not want to know where my country would be without unions. Squinting at U.S, it doesn't look great for the little guy.
