I’m going to metagame this one and say “current events”.
‘history’ maybe even more apt as even or estimations of the future are based on it
Trains.
My kid is a train kid, I’m already listening to it non-stop, I won’t make things worse for me or him.
The universe.
Everything that has ever happened has occurred in the universe as far as anyone knows. Including all fiction.
Carl Sagan or Richard Feynman talking about physics or astronomy.
Feynman. No question.
I had to listen to a guy talk about the fanfic he was writing for 4 hours. So anything but that I suppose.
Honestly, nothing. No matter how strong my interest is in something, it will eventually shift dramatically and I’ll have trouble listening to any other thing.
Medicine
Any particular areas of medicine?
Also I haven’t been promoting the communities well enough but we’ve got some on Lemmy that could use more activity. I was planning to get them going more in the new year

Right now I’m a big nerd for infectious disease but tbh that changes every other three months. :)
My husband talking about something he’s passionate about and makes him happy. It doesn’t matter what, I love how excited he gets when he’s explaining something that matters to him.
The roman empire.
Clearly.
The only correct answer. As much of the discussion should also be in Latin.
Now you lost me.
Unless trebuchet is Latin…
Music
Astrophysics/cosmology. I’m more artsy geek than STEM geek, but there is a tremendous amount of beauty found in what we know and don’t know about the universe.
Food. I love cooking and baking and recipe planning and eating and thinking about food and talking about food
Story telling I’d ask them to improvise or use known stories to give me examples, I now have stories for a lifetime
I’d pick J.R.R. Tolkien and Middle-earth, no hesitation
The science of how color is reproduced via display technology, including colorimetry, photometry, and signal processing
“When we reached SuperTwist monochrome passive matrix LCD’s we thought we’d reached the peak for universal display technology; great contrast, cheap to manufacture, and low power.”
Peak universal display tech and monochrome?? Who said this?
