I didn't realize how significant the issue is, at most I was thinking maybe just barely double but not significantly beyond it.

On it being in the "empty" space or void between galaxies, could it be some of quirk of gravity? What I mean is that the absence of sufficient mass would lead to these voids "expanding". Using the typical example of a stretched elastic sheet, the demonstration is to show how mass pulls space in upon itself. Except this would be the inverse with the mass collecting on the border of the void, causing it to be stretched apart instead.

Any chance you could recommend reading material on this?

Another factor is that politicians aren't in the positions they have attained through entirely altruistic means. From my observations, when people achieve some larger amount of means, they trend towards being conservative to varying degrees of their accumulated wealth and status.

A measurable amount of the older generation don't want to give up anything, perhaps even being aware they have much more then they actually need. Or perhaps not, I don't know. A more socialist government means giving up portions of their wealth for things that have no benefit to them (eg schools for children) and or they assume it is all just a ruse to cheat them? Again, I don't know.

thanks to AI I don't believe this is real. that said I wonder what the snipers on top of the white house thought as this was being assembled.

Also as a life long programmer, I have this feeling it is possible to just go in and make some changes so I can have the system just make shit up about the TPM while indeed also doing the equivalent of having system-d decide to respond with random bullshit.

Don't even need to be a programmer, just find a community of them that you trust that distribute their own "fixes".

Definitely not doing that with anything else because its both hidden in compilation and buried like herpes across multiple components. Probably/hopefully not directly related but I really want to know what they changed to break the clipboard service.

Was it specifically that they stopped this community health survey or the people who used to run it have either been fired or quit?

USA citizens are completely clueless to how fucked things are with all the systems that have kept them safe. Normally I would argue against inflammatory titles but more needs to be framed as "(DOGE or Trump) stopped monitoring..." versus hiding it behind the various TLA's
