AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a visit to a remote area in the Ligonier region, two hours from Pittsburgh, where two long-distance telephone transmission towers were observed. The site was deserted and featured a radiation warning sign indicating high-frequency transmission. Concerns about potential harm from exposure to the towers were raised, with some suggesting that the risk is minimal unless one remains in close proximity for extended periods. Personal experiences from military service were shared, indicating that regular exposure did not lead to immediate health concerns. There is a call for more information regarding the safety and operational status of such towers, particularly in relation to their potential health impacts.

so we took a drive up into the mountains about 2 hours from pittsburgh, ligoner area, anyway at the top of the mountain there was 2 towers for long distance telephone transmission and the driveway said at&t so we went down the driveway and drove up to the area where the towers were. the place was deserted and kind of creepy and on the fence there was a radiation warning due to high frequency transmission. is this harmful? or is there anywhere i could find more info on these towers?

Did it look anything like THIS? Assuming it was operational (looks like those things are being shut down), its only really harmful if you're there for a long time. I was in the navy and I'd stand next to that sign at my lookout post several times a day for a five months. I haven't yet had a chance to test my fertility, but I'm not worried...
 
why yes in fact it did but there were 2 towers and those polyhedron looking thingys were bigger
 
Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'
Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
I came across a video regarding the use of AI/ML to work through complex datasets to determine complicated protein structures. It is a promising and beneficial use of AI/ML.
