He literally talked about how the sound never went away like with highways. I live in a city, night time is significantly quieter without all the cars ripping around. Cities are actually pretty damn quiet, it’s the cars that are loud. He said it felt like a low conversation that never, ever stopped and that it was impossible to get away from, even in his own bedroom where us city folk are pretty safe from too much sound.
I’m sure that sounds we can’t hear are also really bad, not arguing that, and I am also not arguing that the data itself would be awesome(they may be compiling and not ready to put all the data out yet) and thank you for the acknowledgement.
There are plenty of highways that almost never stop these days, while their peak hours are much louder than this. That was a huge frustration for me, this amount of noise (conversational decibels) is really not much and very hard to relate to by audio from a clip alone.
Think of all the people that live near freeways with international airports next to those. Airplanes coming and going all day, traffic constantly.
That’s why I wanted to see data and get a real distance from the data center, and an actual db reading. I just can’t do anything with this video.
How loud exactly is that? At least I have some sense of the distance. People are concerned about the frequencies of these too, although a Finnish study could find no correlation.
The solution would then be to reduce car traffic, honestly, not tell people to be ok with this. I remember my roommate trying to be quiet in the other room while talking to someone and it was keeping me up(several perfectly acceptable reasons I let it happen, one of them being I knew it would end, but still).
I have a friend on a groundfloor who has trains go by their place somewhat regularly, but that’s also not frequent and they got to choose to be there, where these people where there first.
I’ve experienced situations like this, it’s not fun. The unceasing nature is probably the worst part, where you can put up with a lot specifically because you know that it will end at some point but if it’s just going on forever that’ll drive ya nuts.
Agreed about taking account people who were there before. Its a type of pollution and you shouldn’t be allowed to make noise over a certain level, and even then only during business hours. Or put a road in either. The US has a really sad history of running roads through areas using poverty or racism to only affect the people who can’t complain.

Another example is wind turbines. Near constant noise https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=78QwBM_AD3s
