Don't you just love it when non-scientific sunshines write about highly technical issues? According to this article the speed of light is 186,000 MPH.  NO! Sunshine - it's about 186,000 miles per SECOND! More accurately it is 670,616,629 MPH!

It's msn.com. What do you expect, intelligence?

Since MSN almost certainly chooses news articles to re-publish using an AI, it is proof that AIs can be Artificially Dumb too.

So, what is the speed of dark?
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

It is well known that dark is faster than light.

186,000 miles per hour is the speed of light in a Telstra fibre ...

Getting the speed of light right isn't particularly technical, more of a fact you can google in about two seconds per hour (or about 9.46 trillionth(!) of a light-year)

I don't think that the Universe has slowed down, but I certainly have!

Yup! Same here!

Must be a rumor - everyone knows that the only thing that can travel faster than light are rumors.

Reminds me of an article a few years back which claimed the distance from the Earth to the moon was roughly 238,855 thousand miles.
So it's somewhere in the Oort cloud then?

Well, if you can see it, I can't.
Mind you, I have no idea what the heck you are talking about, so maybe I can and just don't know it.
One thing I do know: this is the wrong place to ask, as it says at the top of the page. Try here: Ask a Question[^] - but remember that we can't see your screen, can't access your HDD, and can't read your mind: we only get exactly what you type to work from.
So trying to type as little as possible to save yourself time isn't going to help - unless we know exactly what you need, we can't assist you. Tell us the language you are working woth, tell us what you have tried and what happened, tell us what help you need.
And one more thing ... DON'T SHOUT. Using all uppercase is considered SHOUTING on the internet, and rude. Being rude to people you want help from is generally not a good idea ...
