No sun?

This may fit better in the Chit Chat forum, but let's place it here for now.
Xkcd regularly does a What if? Where they try to answer some more or less interesting questions. This week the question is: "what would happen if the sun went out?"

The answer can be found at: Sunless Earth

I recommend you to check Vsauce video. This guy always explains everything in an awesome manner.

Depending on how the sun went out we'd either die slowly or quickly. The sun, as it's a star, could either go supernova releasing all sort of radiation which would fry the planet (like a sterilizing impact) or turn into a black hole which would suck us in and tear us to pieces. Luckily our sun still has a few dozen billion years left before we have to worry.

"Where are you going, sun?"
"Out."
