Ways To Travel Faster Than Light Without Violating Relativity
StartsWithABang writes: It's one of the cardinal laws of physics and the underlying principle of Einstein's relativity itself: the fact that there's a universal speed limit to the motion of anything through space and time, the speed of light, or c. Light itself will always move at this speed (as well as certain other phenomena, like the force of gravity), while anything with mass — like all known particles of matter and antimatter — will always move slower than that. But if you want something to travel faster-than-light, you aren't, as you might think, relegated to the realm of science fiction. There are real, physical phenomena that do exactly this, and yet are perfectly consistent with relativity.
Well, in that case, this article proves that least bullshit can be accessed at the speed of light.
Life is not for the lazy.
I once saw a picture of Famke Janssen from an 86 Vogue editorial that made me ejaculate fast than c.
Does that count?
Away with your sophistry! Your angles, and parallels and intersections! When will you geeks come into the 21st century and present your ideas as sensible powerpoint presentations!

I want the last 5 minutes back please.
Not until you violate the cosmic speed limit and go back in time..

You're at a very straight, very long beach.
But, I'm in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike so I think I'm screwed.
It must have been something you assimilated. . . .
Just-in-time optimized code goes faster than c.
:-)
must I do it with a pair if scissors, or can I just use one?
My God can beat up your God. Just kidding...don't take offense. I know there's no God.
