Share & Discuss Random Physics & Math News: Where to Start?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the appropriate forum for sharing and discussing random physics and math news. Participants clarify that only mainstream science published in accepted publications is allowed, and questions or discussions must include citations from these sources. There is a query about whether content from arXiv is acceptable, but the original poster later finds the relevant information in the forum rules, expressing support for posting news from acceptable sources.

Okay, I will take a look at the rules. Does this include stuff from arxiv or does it actually have to be published?

edit: nevermind I found it under the rules.

Thread 'In the early days of electricity, they didn't have wall plugs'

Hello scientists, engineers, etc. I have not had any questions for you recently, so have not participated here. I was scanning some material and ran across these 2 ads. I had posted them at another forum, and I thought you may be interested in them as well. History is fascinating stuff! Some houses may have had plugs, but many homes just screwed the appliance into the light socket overhead. Does anyone know when electric wall plugs were in widespread use? 1906 ad DDTJRAC Even big...
