My computer's side panel was vibrating and making this really loud, annoying noise. I tried everything to make it stop, but the only thing that actually works was putting pressure on it. So naturally, I taped a rock to it.

    The positioning of that wifi antenna makes me assume you are stealing your neighbor wifi.

    Just take the side panel off. Could use a good dusting as well. If it’s on a tilted surface, that can happen. Take the panel off, dust it out, and put the panel back on. Just make sure the screws are nice and tight. If it’s an hp, usually a T15 is what’s used. Most other things are just PH1

    I've already done all that, I take care of my system pretty well I'd say. I was able to find the source of the problem, it was one of my gpu fans not being all the way in the socket so it vibrates all over the place
