I am trying to control an Internet-of-Shit device that can only speak 2.4GHz wifi. I find that I am unable to operate a 2.4GHz network that anything can connect to on any channel because there is too much interference. 82% interference, 10% TX retries. Let's take a look at where that's coming from...

Oh. It's because literally every car in the garage is doing wifi bukkake, several floors below me, through many feet of concrete.

I'm sure I have mentioned this before but... if I ever find myself again trying to flash a microcontroller, I need someone to remind me of the terrible mistake that I am making, through the mechanism of punching me in the fucking face.
