Science journalism never fails to disappoint.

vox.com/culture/24108638/3-bod This is one of those "the real science behind the show" things, and it says faster-than-light communication is possible through quantum entanglement. :facepalm: The author completely misses the point of the expert quote cited.

The annoying thing is that the plot doesn't seem to need this: the Sophons can just act as the Trisolarian's agent here, and send reports back to the invasion fleet. (Granted, I have only read the first book and watched the first season.) When reading the book I think I even missed the part about FTL communication; I thought they were just doing what I described here.

@ech disappointed, after this hashtag I thought this was about a Le Guin adaptation

@spoltier eh, sorry about that.

The term has transcended her work. 😂
