Spacetime FTL Communication

A broader term for any FTL communication method that manipulates spacetime itself—whether through warp bubbles, wormholes, or metric engineering—rather than using exotic quantum effects or extra dimensions. It presupposes the ability to create and control localized distortions of the metric, enabling signals to take shortcuts through spacetime. It faces the same theoretical challenges as warp drives, including potential causality violations, but proponents argue that a preserved causality hypothesis could resolve those paradoxes.
Example: “The network used spacetime FTL communication, bouncing signals off microscopic wormholes that flickered in and out of existence. Latency was measured not in seconds but in Planck times.”

Relativity FTL Communication

A speculative form of faster‑than‑light information transfer that uses principles derived from relativity warp drives—i.e., manipulating spacetime geometry to carry a signal without locally exceeding light speed. This could involve creating a warp bubble for a light pulse, sending signals through a traversable wormhole, or exploiting relativistic effects to make signals appear superluminal while respecting causality (see Preserved Causality Hypothesis). Unlike quantum entanglement (which cannot transmit usable information), relativity FTL communication would allow sending actual messages across interstellar distances in negligible time.
Example: “The admiral’s order arrived instantly across twenty light‑years thanks to relativity FTL communication, a tiny warp bubble carrying the signal faster than any light pulse.”

Theory of FTL Communication

A speculative framework for sending information faster than light—using quantum entanglement, tachyons, or spacetime manipulation to beat the light-speed limit. Theory of FTL Communication asks: Could we send messages to distant stars without waiting years? Would FTL communication violate causality? What would it mean for civilization to have instantaneous contact across the galaxy? The theory explores the physics and implications of beating the cosmic speed limit for information.
Theory of FTL Communication "Quantum entanglement seems instantaneous—measure one particle, the other collapses immediately, no matter the distance. FTL Communication theory asks: could we use that to send messages? Physics says no—no information transfer. But what if there's a way? Instant contact with Alpha Centauri would change everything. The theory asks whether everything includes the impossible."

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."
