Well hello there.. if anyone can hear. I found this "QEC" routine buried deep
in the ancient stack. Guess Ill give it a try and see if its can still
transmit.Space! Can't believe how minimal the bandwidth it requires. To be
honest I really doubt it still works.
Betsy is on her way to Kaplan-V as I'm
sipping the infamous Goranian Dark
coffee trying to wake from the Deepness.
I think every travelling merchant would
concur, hyper space travel is just so
boring I mean otherwise I wouldn't even
bother to try this QEC out would I? Of
course Comp Archaeology IS one of my
many hobbies and I do enjoy digging
ancient routine stack and amaze at the
queer routines ancient people have
created!

OK that's enough jargon for now. Ship
duty awaits. Damn Goranian coffee are
intense! Guess I'll be hyper efficient
for another 10 std hours!

Hello there! Can you hear me? I know you
can... There's a reason I came back to
QEC...

So I'm en route to Tausa III for the 4
month long trading trip. The system is
on the edge of the galaxy, at the tip of
the Perseus Arm. The ship is preparing
for the next jump just a few hundred
parsecs away from destination. It's
quiet, motionless here.. well, except
the humming of the ship's drive. Stars
are scarce and dim here at the edge. But
the disk-shaped galaxy itself are
magnificent!

As there haven't been much going on,
except the bureaucratic reports back to
the Trade Union, I have fully indulged
myself into Info Archaeology, one of my
many hobbies, to dig up a little about
this queer sub-routine called the
Quantum Entanglement Communicator, or
QEC.

And I'm surprised that there's a lot
about it than what it appeared to be.
And I'm surprised that there's a lot about it than what it appeared to be.
So I found this sub-routine buried deep
in the info stack, well beneath the
Ivanova Layer in the ship's comm system.
It was curious to find any sub-routine
so isolated from the rest of the ancient
ones down the Ivanova Layer. In fact, I
was so intrigued that I went for the
trouble and cost to do a U-scan in the
Know-Core for QEC.

The scan cost me 3.9 B.Joule. But it's
well worth it.
The scan cost me 3.9 B.Joule. But it's well worth it.
The earliest record of QEC that the Core
found was in the 22nd century (using
standard Info Archaeology chronology).
There were a few documents mentioning
the term scattered on the
soon-to-collapse "Internet". The origin
of the word is unknown, but I strongly
suspect it was much earlier.
Nevertheless, the use of the term seems
to be in the so called "science fiction"
setting. So I think this is a pure
coincidence that it has the same name as
the sub-routine that I'm using to send
this message.

The first truly relevant record of the
QEC appeared much later, in the 26th
century. According to the manifest,
QEC's fundamental design is similar to
the μ-Link we use in the present day.
What's interesting is that QEC's design
facilitates decentralized,
low-bandwidth, high-resiliency
communication. And that sounds a lot
like the Langston movement which has
lasted over 600 years now! So maybe
there's a connection between the two.

propelled me to write in it.
I hope you will receive it. Write back,
and tell me what do you know about QEC?
