How To Communicate Faster-Than-Light 265
higuita writes "With faster technologies showing up everyday, people need to prepare in advance the problems of faster-than-light communication. The main problem is that packages will arrive to the destination before they are sent, forcing a huge redesign of most protocols. Read here the first draft RFC. Any network expert is free to help fine tune this draft."

It's still 1/4 in the states.
Well, no. In the states it's 4/1.
All of Europe should be on 2/4 by now though.
See, if the US switched to metric, we wouldn't have these miscommunications...

I can believe FTL communication, even FTL travel, but the US moving to metric? April fools are meant to be believable.
Not to worry, I will have written the protocols (Score:5, Funny)
