Wait, so wireless DOES work on a Radio Freq?

Of course.


What else would it use? Homing pigeons?

Overview and Rational

Avian carriers can provide high delay, low throughput, and low
altitude service. The connection topology is limited to a single
point-to-point path for each carrier, used with standard carriers,
but many carriers can be used without significant interference with
each other, outside of early spring. This is because of the 3D ether
space available to the carriers, in contrast to the 1D ether used by
IEEE802.3. The carriers have an intrinsic collision avoidance
system, which increases availability. Unlike some network
technologies, such as packet radio, communication is not limited to
line-of-sight distance. Connection oriented service is available in
some cities, usually based upon a central hub topology.

LOL!! Awsome

yes, but it's the same as high-end cordless phones and we press those suckers up against our skulls, so i wouldn't worry too much about the adapter in your computer.
 
My mom thinks turning on the computer at night just to download some dramas will cause cancer because it "radiates radiation". Mwwha
 
It depends on cooling. The radiation can increase the temperature in your brain. So when you use a cordless phone or press your head up to your computer, it's important to put a good heatsink/fan combo on your head, and make sure it has good contact with your skin. He should probably use a phase change cooler to keep temperatures low enough for the heatsink to deal. He should probably weld some copper fins to an aluminum foil hat and shave his head for better contact.

Has anyone here ever measured radiation from various lightbulbs and compared it to radiation levels from wifi? Perhaps there is a website that already has done this?
