Yeah, it's not like the universe pulls you over when you break those light-speed laws.
Actually, it kind of does.
The kinectic energy of particles increases if they have a higher velocity. According to Einsteins famous formula: E=mc^2, energy is equivalent to mass. So a particle with a lot of velocity has more mass than one with a little velocity. This means that at some point the particle needs an infinite amount of energy to accelerate. This happens at the speed of light.
So the universe doesn't stop you, but it does make sure you don't drive too hard.
Playstation has a linuxkit for the ps2. It's not made for a big audience, just for a few nerds, but it is a step in the right direction. Maybe it will be somewhat more popular if Europeans are able to connect their playstation to the internet too.
