Us meatbags had our chance

It is not a stretch that such RF exposure could potentially have carcinogenic properties, but that needs context, the likelihood of a cell phone is pretty much nil.

That's not how non-ionizing radiation works. The MPE exposure limits are because you can be effectively cooked, not because you'll get cancer. You need much more energy to do that, like UV light, X or gamma rays.

Western NY. It's been pretty rough, but I think the lakes help moderate it a bit

Honestly that looks 10x better, and there's a decent chance I'm switching tomorrow. Thanks!

I forgot to mention that, but the Airnow integration has been pretty good. I was using Airvisual Cloud, but that doesn't seem to be as accurate.

What are you using instead?

Air Quality Cards (lemmy.world)

Given that the air quality is going to shit in m y area again, I figured I'd show off my air quality cards! Let me know if you have any questions. The colors for the AQI cards are from US EPA's color set and the the PM2.5 color values are based off EPA's PM2.5 exposure over 24 hours

^ These are based off the stock gauge card.
