I'm interested in noise pollution and light pollution. Light pollution is horrible for insects. (and birds) Noise pollution is bad for people.
We could have less loud, dark at night (but still safe) cities and towns.
@futurebird @oldclumsy_nowmad @Anke @muddle
Light pollution is bad for plants as well. Let’s see if I can find that link.

@burnitdown @futurebird Its also interesting that different parts of the body are affected differently by microwaves. One of the more vulnerable parts are the eyes. So don't watch the food cook...
@SamanthaJaneSmith @futurebird the shielding is there so you don't cook yourself at all. without it, you would need to stand dozens of metres away to operate the microwave.

Do you think the people selling this are laughing at their customers or are they into it?
It's like a damn joke.
@futurebird They're selling it for $88? If they're not laughing, they're seig heiling at trump rallies.

@adrake @futurebird @oldclumsy_nowmad ah, I misread what you said about 99.7% initially. I didn't realise you were talking about the hat. So I guess I overestimated the effectiveness of the shielding and, hence, also overestimated the leakage
I also did look up some more reputable info on max wireless tx power and was surprised to find that in some countries it can even go up to 4W (which tallies with what you said):
Taken together, wifi and ovens seem to be roughly comparable rather than there being the orders-of-magnitude differences that I expected (with ovens emitting more radiation).
Thanks for the correction. I guess I'll have to retire my "but microwaves leak more energy" argument when dealing with (literal) tinfoil hatters...
@muddle @futurebird @oldclumsy_nowmad I think it's not accidental that they're comparable. Both are expected to be used by the general population with no safety training, so both should have limits that are safe under most circumstances.
Licensed users have different rules. Amateur radio operators are licensed to transmit at up to 1500W (!) on most of the 2.4GHz band, but they take on the legal burden of ensuring that whatever they do doesn't expose others to unsafe levels of emissions.

@futurebird
Sounds like a scam.
Everyone knows that the microchips in Bill Gates' Covid vaccine are distributed through the whole body.
How else would the birdpeople from Vega know exactly the moment I take off my socks? -

@futurebird When it reads "from your brain" it means to stop the WiFi and Bluetooth emissions coming from your brain?

That's... not the part of your head that you need to be covering to avoid brain fog

@futurebird lol!
the fact somebody made a tinfoil hat look legitimately cool blows my mind.

There aren't any common waves that could hurt your brain.
BUT
If you want to know about something invisible, that most people don't know about that can impact your health in persistent mild but still bad ways? Look up "infrasound" --

@alice @futurebird Sorry, I meant to @ the people this ad is targeting. Joe only agrees to jump into a volcano because a billionaire pays his doctor to tell him he has a terminal “brain cloud”
