Everything has felt...off...for like two days now. What the fuck is that about?

That would be terrible. i don't want to have to live in some lead-shielded room.
According to the people who claim to have wi-fi allergies, aluminum foil on the walls and windows is sufficient.
Can I start complaining about the illumanti and their attempts to institute a one world government too?
(also, i think mythbusters did a thing on it and found that tinfoil increases the strength of the signal. tinhats make the mindcontrol rays worse)
MIT found that maximum attenuation for tinfoil hats was 10dB, and in the CDMA and GPS spectra, it actually amplified by 30dB and 20dB respectively.
If you turn your house into a Faraday Cage, you should be well-protected.
Faraday Cage would require a largish amount of copper, would it not?
Better get onto that before the Chinese snap up all the copper in the world.
A Faraday cage just requires a conducting metal. Were it not for the windows, and airplane would be a Faraday cage. That's why airplanes are safe against lightning strikes, though the window holes are large enough to still get weak cell reception. Aluminum foil is perfectly adequate for making a Faraday cage, and is in fact often used as the outer layer of coaxial cable (which requires that the outside shield the inside) now that copper mesh has gotten so expensive.
If you have sticks of butter in foil wrappers, try heating them in the microwave, and watch them come out barely warmed.
...
your landlord would be way too paranoid to actually make that a clause.
387b Said lodging shall not be used/made/included in any electrical experimentation. Including but not limited to; Tesla coils, Faraday cages, house sized theremins, home made EEGs, EKGs, or other health monitoring devices, development of autonomous devices, and any tinkering with the grid.
wait, people have made their own EEGs/EKGs often enough for this to be officially prohibited? wtf?
i'm just thinking that lining my apartment in aluminum foil would probably not go over well.
@SB: i've heard of some really really strange lease clauses, so i wouldn't be THAT surprised
@strangerbox- i just made that up. and included all the things I've been tempted to do to rental places before.

It's really starting to get on my nerves.
