    Might that not be a case of the building having a monster concentration of ferrous metal?

    EDIT: Apparently lemmy doesn’t believe concentrations of iron affects magnets. Go on.

    The lack of basic science around here annoys me. Had thought this crowd was smarter than FB Boomers.

      It’s not Gina have a solid iron core or anything, even if it’s meant to be bombproof, it’s mostly going to be reinforced concrete.

      Could be that the NSA messes with GPS signals there too thwart drones.

      I was under the impression that it’s an old Bell Telephone trunk/exchange, that has since been repurposed by a federal alphabet soup as a data center.
