minus-squarenyaskiez@lemmy.zipOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 days agoAh makes sense. Maybe I’ll ask one of my friends who live there. I heard it’s a cia surveillance building

minus-squareMadison420@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 days agoLots of high voltage and inductors which effect local magnetic fields. Probably not too many permanent magnets though, you can see the same thing at local switching stations of you try.
minus-squareWeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 days agoInteresting, thanks for the info. I’d always wondered what was causing that.
minus-squareMadison420@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 days agoNo problem. Here’s a video, he’s a lot just an fyi but he’s smart and enjoys what he does. https://youtube.com/shorts/6uH5rNnU5OM
minus-squareshalafi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down3·edit-29 days agoMight that not be a case of the building having a monster concentration of ferrous metal? EDIT: Apparently lemmy doesn’t believe concentrations of iron affects magnets. Go on. The lack of basic science around here annoys me. Had thought this crowd was smarter than FB Boomers.
minus-squareanomnom@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 days agoIt’s not Gina have a solid iron core or anything, even if it’s meant to be bombproof, it’s mostly going to be reinforced concrete. Could be that the NSA messes with GPS signals there too thwart drones. I was under the impression that it’s an old Bell Telephone trunk/exchange, that has since been repurposed by a federal alphabet soup as a data center.
