I have my tin foil hat.
They've been looking for proof of the danger of cellphone radiation for nearly 40 years (well above the threshold for effects to be apparent) and the latest I heard is it's still all clear. Or they've found weak correlation. Or there's no chance. Or...
I'm far more likely to die in a car accident.

I'm most likely to die as a result of being a smart-ass at precisely the wrong time. 
I'm okay with that.

Before you can ignore a problem, you have to first admit to yourself that you have a problem.

I've actually left instructions with my wife that when I die, I want her to announce it here. That way, y'all can set up appropriate memorials, arrange celebrations, and maybe even a forum titled, "What Would JSOP Do?".

I know you're busy, so you can really put it off until after I'm gone.

Are you kidding? Why do you think CP's latency just went up by a factor of 3?

And by surviving a massive stroke for 2 days on the floor, I've offered partial proof that that applies to me!

I don't want more speed out of my Wi-Fi connection; it's already much faster than what my ISP can provide. I want reliability through a stronger signal.
Right now, I still haven't seen any significant difference in terms of reliability, having gone through 802.11b, g, n and ac routers over the years, and still often losing the signal to it momentarily, when sitting on the porch outside the house, essentially a few feet below and on a diagonal from the router. Perhaps 15 feet (top) in a straight line, going through a brick wall.
(And yes, not only have I gone through multiple routers, but I'm seeing the same with various laptops and tablets. Wireless simply sucks IMO.)

Maybe you should move to a new house, you know one of those Japanese ones with paper walls

Nah. Wires for me. If I absolutely want to be outdoors, and wired, then the Ethernet-over-powerlines adapter I have works in the gazebo in the backyard.

I'll bet you had even better choices. So, taking a gamble that you wager options carefully.

It looks quite simple, isn't it ?
In about 30 minutes, you have satellites deployed.
It is a wonder how material science, computer simulation (finite element method/analysis), engineering methods for construction rapid prototyping and quality control and all the software engineering has improved in the last 50 years (*)
(*) with at least one exception of the units blunder in the Mars Lander mission.
I'd rather be phishing!

Herself has a sore throat, so I was searching our local supermarket websites for throat lozenges - the two tend to have different prices and I have to go to both anyway.
And the "related products I might like" on one site? Whisky, Brandy, Vodka, ...
I like the algorithm ...
