@pwaring Is there a co-working space near you which would at least allow you to get away for a bit?

Otherwise, can you quietly encourage some civil disobedience to silence the ventilation system?

Follow

@kinnison @pwaring large stick in the fan should stop it, probably non destructively, because it'll trip

Not encouraging or condoned obv ;-)

@pwaring @falken @kinnison how big are the vents? I wonder if someone accidentally emptied a couple of cans of expanding spray foam into them, it might dampen the sound considerably and cause the generator to overheat and cut out.

Or it might catch fire and burn the whole place down, which is probably less great, as then you’d have lots of siren noises to worry about too.

@pwaring @kinnison "sorry officer, I thought that was the bin when I emptied my pockets into the vent. String? Yes, I always carry unrolled string, very handy"
