minus-squareNeato@ttrpg.networklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up19·8 months agoUnfortunately the amount of helium made in fusion is so small as to be useless for anything humans need. Fusion is just that efficient.

minus-squaregregorum@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12arrow-down1·8 months agoOnly for chipmunks for now.
minus-squareNeato@ttrpg.networklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·8 months agoWe actually get all of our helium from mining, trapped gas. And we’re running out of the easy to reach stuff. So yes, no more chipmunk voices. But they’re similar gasses that can do the same thing and even ones that make your voice deeper.
minus-squaredohpaz42@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·8 months agoYes! I’ve heard. I would love to try some of that.
minus-squareDarkThoughts@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up3·8 months agoAlways careful with gasses. You basically replace a certain amount of capacity in your lungs with them, so you can very much suffocate yourself if you overdo it.
