>tfw you realise that a finite speed limit for propagation of massless particles is required for the universe to be anything but a homogeneous energy soup
>we will never have FTL travel
Should I just start studying something more meaningful, like Architecture or 'finance'.
Fuck.
why cant it be a homogeneous energy soup

We will never travel faster than light in the usual notion of what it means to travel a distance. But the fact is that GR predicts spacetime can warp, it is non unreasonable to guess with a theory of quantum gravity we may be able to figure out a way to "shortcut" distances through warped regions of spacetime.

I think humanity will find a way. By humanity I mean some scientists

If you can go faster than light, no matter the method you use, you can travel back in time.

If you can't find meaning in physics then you won't be able to find meaning in any other human venture.
Might as well an hero or wait it out and see if some smart guys discover the meaning of life.

Could you elaborate on that? The only 'ftl' timetravel stuff I've ever seen has been the temporally desynced wormhole stuff
