    But that happens because of matter falling into them, right? When they’ve already swallowed everything, there’s not going to be accretion disks.

      Yeah, though eventually they should all evaporate one after another with a last huge tiny energy burst due to hawking radiation. But that will take a looooooooong ass time. And we still don’t know (might never know) if hawking radiation is real.
