In fact, it appears we live in a giant cosmic void with roughly 20% lower than the average density of matter.
Okay that’s a little less dramatic than I envisioned given the use of the word “void”
we’re under quarantine. we are crikket. the rest of the galactic community saw what were up to and is putting us in the isolation void until they observe that we can act right
The rest of the galactic population is in the void with us. It’s the rest of the universe outside the local void that has quarantined us.
No dark forest yaaaay
Dark Forest is not self consistent. Ability to travel implies nanotechnology which allows metabolize any resource which deterministically leads to expansion which leads to self-selection for fastest expanders which soon means relativistic expansion which is hard to observe since observation window is short while pre-expansive observers are extinguished. Alernative is that nucleation density is very low and/or (reaching the stage of) travel and expansion is impossible. This is consistent with what we see, so Occam’s razor cuts Dark Forest.
Our region is dark low-energy and dark doesn’t matter.
The data and rationale seem quite compelling!
