Correct.
Correct.
It’s hard to care about people who develop games to encourage and monetize on gambling addictions.
That’s the point that’s being made.
You were wrong about everything else, but surprisingly you’re right in this instance.
It’s not. There are two types of electromagnetic radiation: ionizing and non-ionizing.
Ionizing is the radiation that is bad for you because it also shoots little tiny particles at you that damage your DNA. Think X-rays
No-ionizing radiation doesn’t shoot tiny particles at you, so it’s mostly safe. Microwaves use this type, and it’s the exact same radiation your wifi router uses (which is why it can cause interference)
The worst a microwave oven can do to you is give you a burn since they work by heating up water molecules. But, that would require you to trip the door switch and putting a body part inside.
So, in conclusion, it’s basically impossible for a microwave to harm you with EMR unless you’re actively trying to make it harm you.
Also, as an added bonus but of knowledge, it’s completely safe to microwave metal, if it’s in the right shape. Some microwaves even have a metal rack for heating up casseroles and such (mine did at one point)
A few months ago I was tasked with translating a script from one IBM emulator program to another because the owners of the first program wouldn’t respond to requests to purchase a new license.
The scripting language used on both was unique to the software, and the documentation was basically non-existent. Plus, the script was written over a decade ago, and the guy who wrote it was long gone.
For weeks I banged my head against the wall trying to figure out the logic flow before I realized that it was essentially BASIC, which I haven’t touched in over 20 years.
Microwaves leaking radiation is absolutely not a health hazard.
If operating a microwave interferes with any of your 2.4GHz networks, you need a new microwave.
Or we could all just move to nano and be less frustrated.
And like the other 10 companies that own pretty much every brand in the country.
Yeah, I’m about to the point where I’m just going to buy a domain and host my own email server.
The reason those games are so popular is that they’re inherently exploitative. I have no issues with predatory app developers being priced out of business.
