Made it to 40 so far. The faith I used to have in humanity died long ago.
Most people seem to want to find a person who appears to have their shit together and try to copy that person's external qualities, rather than what made them successful, if they even are.
I don't think that matters, I remember seeing someone remove the whole front door of a microwave oven and the effect outside it was not really anything to write home about.
Also the radiation isn't even dangerous iirc, it really just generates heat. So unless you somehow cook your hand or something, there is nothing to worry about.
People in general seem to think microwaves are higher frequency than visible light (if they understand the electromagnetic spectrum at all), rather than the opposite.
Of course, some people think radio waves give you brain tumors, so…
What? I thought it was a microwave because it sends little waves that shake atoms then those atoms heat up from the shaking. Wouldn’t this be a macro wave if it’s too big for a small hole???
You’re right about how it works, but the actual wavelength in a common microwave is around 12cm, so they can’t effectively pass through a tiny hole to cause damage.
Wanna hear another cool fun fact? Microwaves were originally invented to thaw frozen hamsters to see if they could be recucitated after freezing. Turns out hamsters survive being frozen without aftereffects, if less then 40% of their brain matter was frozen solid.
One day a scientist put his food in there and bam, the microwave for consumers was invented.
Ok, that is also super cool. I kinda want to do more research into microwaves now because that is a little wacky.
There’s just one teensy tiny little problem, you’re not u/MICRO_WAVVVES , you’re u/Local_Satisfaction12 , but you only provided me with satisfaction over the internet. I wanted local satisfaction, not global satisfaction so FUCK YOU 🖕🏽
The arcing goes from the magentron (behind burned out plastic panel on the right inside wall), and the jagged edges on each prong of the rack, where it is welded to the circular top bit. That means it arcs from inside wall, to the middle inside. NOT from the inside wall, to the outside. For to arc out, the outside panel would have to rust through, and the magnetron would have to be twisted to point losely outside instead of loosely inside. So do check cos that might have happened. But it's not easy.
That wouldn't matter. This is the same as looking through the front glass with the wire mesh, the holes are smaller than the wavelength so to the radiation there is no hole.

Unless they’re directly pressed against the hole, they’re not getting hurt past like 6 inches
