Most of it is aliens flying around in stealth spaceships. We can't spot them, except that they haven't figured out a way to hide their mass.

So galaxies with more DM are more technologically developed than the others. In this all-DM galaxy they must have used up almost everything else to build ships.

Why is it hard to imagine a particle that doesn't respond to the weak, strong or electromagnetic force?

Because they don't want to.

Perhaps all their imagination is all used up on other things, like people who suffer the ill effects of 5G from nearby cell towers that haven't even been activated.

bothers me.

There is an unexplained phenomena and this "dark matter" and "dark energy" is just a made up explanation for that. There is no evidence it exists. No experiments we've done show that it exists and as far as I know there aren't even any proposed experiments that just need funding that are likely to show it exists.

Saying a galaxy is 99.9% something that we have no clue if even exists seems insane.

It's like string theory. Just made up stuff that is just tuned as needed to match measurements. It's like a god of the gaps - it's constantly adjusted to match experimental data.

Comment What about "free" apps? (Score 1) 24

I can see google/apple having a problem with "free" apps that people want to host and have installed from official app stores and then only allow behind the scenes payment where google/apple don't get a cut.

Presumably google/apple will have a rule for this where you're charged a certain amount for pushing new versions (which require validation) and per-install costs that would be offset by payment %'s that those companies take.

And then hopefully they're still good for truly free apps.
