Any ideas on stopping the universe from ending (astrophysically speaking)? And is such a thing possible with our limited tools?

Sure, stop entropy or stop time. Good luck.

The Omega Point is a term Tipler uses to describe a cosmological state in the distant proper-time future of the universe. He claims that this point is required to exist due to the laws of physics. According to him, it is required, for the known laws of physics to be consistent, that intelligent life take over all matter in the universe and eventually force its collapse. During that collapse, the computational capacity of the universe diverges to infinity, and environments emulated with that computational capacity last for an infinite duration as the universe attains a cosmological singularity. This singularity is Tipler's Omega Point.[6] With computational resources diverging to infinity, Tipler states that a society in the far future would be able to resurrect the dead by emulating alternative universes.[7] Tipler identifies the Omega Point with God, since, in his view, the Omega Point has all the properties of God claimed by most traditional religions.[7][8]

Tipler's argument of the omega point being required by the laws of physics is a more recent development that arose after the publication of his 1994 book The Physics of Immortality. In that book (and in papers he had published up to that time), Tipler had offered the Omega Point cosmology as a hypothesis, while still claiming to confine the analysis to the known laws of physics.[9]

Tipler, along with co-author physicist John D. Barrow, defined the "final anthropic principle" (FAP) in their 1986 book The Anthropic Cosmological Principle as a generalization of the anthropic principle:

Intelligent information-processing must come into existence in the Universe, and, once it comes into existence, will never die out.[10]
One paraphrasing of Tipler's argument for FAP runs as follows: For the universe to physically exist, it must contain living observers. Our universe obviously exists. There must be an "Omega Point" that sustains life forever.[11]

There's precisely a 0% chance of us doing anything.
You can dream all you want about some dumb scifi future tech that weaponises black holes, but in reality, even 1000 years from now, we'll still be powerless against earthquakes and tsunamis, never mind the very universe itself pulling itself apart lol
If the sun was moved a little closer to the earth, just it's mere passive existence within our proximity would spell the certain doom of all life, what do you think of stars billions of times bigger? The entire universe?

yes, but you have to start with the basics: make lots of threads about IQ so that people will finally understand how important it is to be smart, some day this will lead to advances and so our job will be done
