It's not even the "end" of the universe per se, the universe is still there, it's just doing precisely nothing of interest.
It's the end in that it ceases to have any characteristics. Spacial dimensions are irrelevant when the universe is perfectly homogeneous (which as far as I am aware, would be a requirement for it to be in equilibrium), and because space won't change time isn't relevant either. So it exists as much as a thing with no properties can exist.
Not to mention any life would probably be dead due to all the heat and energy in the universe being perfectly spread over an infinitely vast expanse, so the temperature would probably be rather low. Dividing any non infinite qunatity, like the total heat and energy in the universe, by infinity would make an infinitely small decimal that isn't quite zero but practically is for all intents and purposes.

This is fun to hypothesize about.

You can't divide by infinity, that would be silly. It's not even a number.

I mean, we can rephrase that as "as the size of the universe approaches infinity with the energy and heat of the universe staying the same, the temperature will approach zero," but they really mean the exact same thing in the end, so eh, I tolerate both.

Oooooooo. I know. ClF3. That should be a fun surprise.

This is all avoidable if people would just listen to Kyubey once in a while.

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Anon pisses off the goatman.
I'm not saying that this didn't happen, but it falls really closely in line with stereotypical American horror stories.
EDIT: Oh yeah and it's from /x so...

Not real or not likely to happen doesn't make it less creepy of a read.

No but seriously that shit shook the house a little.

It's not scary until the noise hits a harmonic that resonates with every pane of glass in your house, every animal in the neighbourhood is cowering on a reflex, and there's an entire damn squadron of the things coming in. In the middle of the night. Without lights.

How sure can you be that it wasn't a fleet of unidentified flying objects?

Speaking of UFOs there's probably aliens outside my house because there's a really creepy loud noise coming from there. It stopped for several minutes after I went to check.
