Do you live near a data center that makes a noise loud enough to bother you in your home?

@mlanger I’d be far more concerned about the welfare of people who live near noisy football grounds.

@mlanger Given your post a boost. I don't live near a data center yet (there may be one coming) but I live near an electricity sub station and being on the Autistic spectrum the low-end hum when it'd under high capacity - although quiet to most people - can be excruciating to someone like me.

@mlanger The Cars on the main-Road are loud enough to hear nothing else

@UrbanCityCowboy @mlanger my partner is the same!

@DrHyde Yeah, because football grounds are running 24/7 365 days a year.

@tizen Maybe where you live, but I live in a quiet area where normally the only thing I hear are birds and wind in the trees.

@piggo I don't know what it is. It started early this morning before 4 AM. At least that's when I started hearing it. It woke me out of a dead sleep. Eight hours have gone by and I'm still hearing it. Unfortunately, not everyone else is hearing it so I'm not sure if it's an actual sound or some form of tinnitus. I'm trying to connect with other people who have definitely connected a similar sound to a data center or something else. There's also this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hum

@mlanger I find when I have sinus infection or such I'm more sensitive to this. I can sort of hear the rumble of a heat pump quite far away -

@mlanger football fans are far more annoying than data centre fans.

Erin Brokovich has a data center map to see if one has sprung up around you.

@LeafyEricScott @mlanger I see you've never had to put up with football fans being violent yobs that piss on nearby residents front doors

@tomsart This was very informative. I'm trying to find out whether the recently built data center, which is supposedly not done yet, has begun testing any equipment over the past two days. My current theory is that I'm hearing something at a very low frequency, below 20 Hz. A Wikipedia article says that some people can hear down to around 12 Hz. This would correspond to some of the information in the video; basically, I suspect I'm hearing machine noise that the average person doesn't hear.

@DrHyde @LeafyEricScott @mlanger And you've never had to experience living in a city which regularly reaches 40°C in the dry season, and in which a gigantic new datacentre has been built which will undoubtedly throw even more heat out - not to mention guzzle up all the water that people need to drink.
But yeah, football fans eh.
