Being a device that discharges voltage (even a small amount of electon flow, commonly called amperage) can disrupt or damage electonics. Extent would depend on the amount of VA (voltamps) as well as the particular electronics in question (how well it is grounded, shielded, what sensitive components exposed and other variables). Even without direct current flow any electronic 'generator' creates EMF (electromagnetic force) which can affect (such as RF (radio frequency)) or any component within a certain area that is susceptible to EMF. All this said, with 'normal' usage (read: no direct contact or extreme close proximity) MOST (read: well designed and produced) electronics are not affected within a building (household). I wouldn't use one on myself if I had a pacemaker though (disclaimer: I am not a doctor or engineer). Always use common sense and care when using any electronic device that could potentially injure or damage!

Can you connect a radio scanner to a dab aerial?
Yes but the range of strong frequencies received will be quite narrow and get weaker beyond the aerials intended frequency range. Also do NOT try and transmit through a DAB antenna unless you know explicitly what you are doing as you can cause damage to your equipment and possibly cause a small fire.
Can sound from musical instruments and vibrations from walking cause structural damage like cracks in the walls and ceiling or doors not shutting correctly in only a couple years?
I do not believe that musical instruments can cause structural damage. I have an upright piano next to a door and a wall. Our piano has been there for 7 years. There are no complications for closing our door, and there are no cracks on our walls. I play it constantly, and no such occurrences have happened. I do not believe walking will cause structural damage. If it did, many houses would need annual repairs.
Does head banging cause damage?
Listening to the kind of music that requires head banging causes brain damage. ^eff you. apparently head-banging can bruise the front of your brain, but i don't believe it. :D

YES! If the volume is too high and its too high for too many times
Is Dubstep illegal?
Dubstep is not illegal, it is a type of music but is not known as a genre yet. It is a loud type of music mainly bass types Dubstep listeners call Wub Wubs. Dubstep can not cause damage to a human body but can damage hearing if played at loud volumes.No.
High voltage shock low amps effects?
If the amperage is very low, the effect is "shocking". It won't cause any serious harm to a person, but might make them jump. This can cause damage to electronic equipment, though; this is why it is important to ground yourself (using wrist straps oftentimes) when working on electronic equipment.

What is Magnetic in computers?
Anyone have a source of information about the effective range of a magnetic field that would cause damage to computerized or other electronic equipment? I'm researching an option to use rare earth magnets to assemble something, but I want to make sure that it won't screw up the electronic equipment that will be close to the magnets (but not in direct contact).

No.
Does homeowners insurance cover damage to borrowed tools and yard equipment?
No, this would no be covered. The cause of the damage must be a covered cause such as fire, windstorm, theft, etc.
Can static shock cause damage?
Probably not to you or other people. But it can damage sensitive electronic things. And if it doesn't kill them right away, it can shorten the life of some electronic components, so that the device dies sooner than it would have.
