A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If you think about it, every tech is just radio. And I don't just mean cellular, wifi, and bluetooth, There are few things on an SoC that aren't just refinements and miniaturizations of radio tech.

IMO modulation is wildly different than radio.

It's all based on the same mathematical model. And since it's not profitable to make real progress in technology when you're already making money from it, it's all a very similar concept of the same technology. Capitalism sure is swell 🙃
