No. A black hole does NOT act like a vacuum cleaner.
Yeah. Since this whole Higgs Boson thing turned out to be no big deal, maybe the LHC can concentrate on mass producing tiny black holes to clean up dust in carpets and hard to reach corners.
No, they'll have a large black hole to really improve suction.
If you have any troublesome planets you need to vacuum up then perhaps this would be a useful product. Effortlessly cleans away even the stubbornest of Class II Gas Giants! Otherwise I think you're just better off with a good old fashioned electric motor or broomstick! As Quadrillian said much better, technology is only really useful when applied in a practical manner. Never create a car with 16 wheels if 4 will do!
Hah! Do you know that back in the 1940s people were saying that one day all our cars would be powered by little nuclear reactors. Look where that went, especially after Chernobyl and Fukushima. People tend to go all foamy at the mouth with their enthusiasm for any new discovery and imagine all manner of applications, thinking it is going to be electricity all over again. Nowadays we don't even wait for a discovery. Just some fanciful speculative piece of math is enough to get the hyperbole organ activated. ELectricity DID find all manner of new applications. But note carefully that electricity is readily available all around up at essentially zero cost. All we had to do was learn to manage it. Dangerous levels of radiation are not all around us. Generating it is a great risk. Hypothetical black holes are light years away, require far more energy to make than the entire history of humanity has ever generated many times over. And frankly if some fool decided to start bringing them to Earth, the result would be disasters that would dwarf Fukushima. Perhaps it would be better if we simply started to get over our cleanliness fetishes and go back to using a broom. Cheers!
