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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Exactly, I'd still place bursts of radio signals (like that of a pulsar or morse code transmitter) under the umbrella term "radio communication". Just because it uses the radiation that is at the radio frequency. No matter what the format/arrangement/method, which includes encoding and using carrier waves.
Then you also have electric waves that travel through conductors, although this is only a part the electromagnetic wave used in the air. But you can change the frequency of this electric wave perhaps to the radio frequency. So perhaps there is also radio communication through wires
