Yeah, my high school was history, history, maths, and maths, at least year 11 and 12 I did double maths and double history. I think I learnt more about electricity when I got into amateur radio, the licence for that is pretty detailed
I don't disagree with single family houses existing. I think they have their use, but they should reflect their actual cost. Suburbs right now don't pay for their roads or their transit.
High density shouldn't have to subsidise people who want low density. Likewise the suburbs shouldn't subsidise high density, but high density is far far less costly
Electricity is remarkably simple. Children make machines that can make electricity since all you need to do is chemistry or move a magnet relative to a wire. You can make electricity you can feel by rubbing a balloon on your hair
Have you never been charged to thousands of volts? You can feel the static electric charge as it directly affects your body hair
Additionally there is evidence humans can sense magnetic fields, with some populations always knowing where north is, and using cardinal directions in place of forward, backwards, left, right, front, and back
Outsiders who have spent time with those people have learnt to sense their orientation.
Down voting small communities can drown out constructive conversation, and if you down voted the top 3 posts in a community you probably should have blocked it instead.
If the community likes stuff you dislike, it's probably not the right place for you
Lemmy doesn't yet support hiding communities from the "all" list from non subscribers (you'd have to use search to find such communities) so you'll see stuff from communities that are intended for a specific audience, use the block function
I'm a fan of the Palladium games, much more of the universes than the system, especially Rifts, after the bomb & TMNT, and beyond the supernatural
If I could find players for them I'd be running three or four games. Sadly I only have players for one, currently playing Rifts, but switching over to turtles once the Kickstarter new versions arrive
A single high efficiency wood heater can fill a valley with visible smoke. I can't believe that breathing that density of smoke can be healthy. The valley I live in is full of smoke from mid spring through to new years, I wonder how many are killed by that smoke
