Researchers at the EPFL Acoustic Group have come up with a crazy plasma-based noise cancelling tech that could revolutionize the audio world.

This could be great for audiophiles and musicians, but it could also mean I don’t have to hear my neighbors fart through our paper-thin walls…where do I throw my money??

I mean you don’t have to hear them fart but who doesn’t enjoy a good squeak and giggle

Oh… are you my neighbour? Sorry about that…

fart simultaneously in the opposite phase.

Risky. If you end up out of phase and create a standing wave then we’re NOT responsible for the consequences

THIS is why I’m here. Genius.

Ahh yes… Newton’s 3.5th law “for every fart in nature there is an equal and opposite fart.”

Thanks, glad you got a laugh out of it

Hitting me with the real questions. LOUD. Prob between 50-70 dB. Not this loud, but loud.
