Totally understand the skepticism, though this guy puts about as much due diligence into the video as one could hope for - near the end he’s trying to conduct a double-blind clinical trial!

I am lazy. Is pseudoscience, mad science or just barnyard gossip?
saplyng@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Barnyard gossip with a pinch of divination. Mad science is actual science but for the explicit purpose of being evil or off the walls whacky; given enough time or a proper application mad science can turn into normal science.

yeah i figured the datacenters being sound weapons or something was close enough to mad science, right? it could be sam altman’s evil plan maybe?

it’s been acknowledged by the scientific community as having an effect on humans and animals for decades.

“Having an effect” is completely different then saying it makes people sick, and the wiki article alternates between citing studies that it does cause discomfort to it doesn’t cause discomfort, and for the studies/experiments that actually proving it does have an effect it was very strong and specifically intended to cause discomfort.

It’s not the same, they’re loud high velocity small spinning blades. It’s the same concept as a box fan, very large diameter fan moving slowly is quiet, small high velocity fan is much louder. And they’re ground level and much closer to people and stacked together very closely instead of far apart.

It’s Benn Jordan. From watching a bunch of his videos the guy is super legit and would be happy to be disproved on most any of his findings.
