Yeah! But I’m gonna say I’m really odd, it’s a lot of vibes and unless I convince a doctor of a case study, I’d never be believed.
I have/had Tinnitus (it’s nowhere near as bad as it was 7/10 to it’s current 1/10). It’s been gone 7-8 years now.
1. I listen to music much quieter, and let my ears adjust.
2. This is the weird part. I would get itchy all the time, random pin pricks I’d feel often. I read about monks who meditated so long they could turn off their hearts. So I sat in bed for 3 months (before going to sleep) and tried really hard to look at where I felt an itch and see it was my body was wrong. There was no reason to give me a cue to itch. Nothing was happening.
I can easily ‘feel’ the pin pricks if I desire but don’t anymore. It’s like a weird mental trick. I can also feel mosquitos and really anything touch me and no longer get false cues.
Anyhow I suffered from tinnitus and did the normal suggested stuff but it didn’t work. So I remembered the time I got rid of my itching and tried to replicate what I did.
I sat and listened to ‘true noise’ and untrue ‘noise’ and it wasn’t instant relief but over 2-3 weeks it went to level it’s at now. I only notice it if I desire. It’s louder an extremely quiet environment but I swear it’s almost like I can hear my blood pump.
Listen to really low noise. Quieter than whispers. Then up and up. Train your ear to understand sound and not sound. Then go back down again. Sadly the truest quiet will cost you (some place remote with no bugs or wind) but I did it fine at home because I could remember before I had tinnitus. Earplugs I think don’t work because you hear your blood pump.
Anyway I’m sorry you’re suffering and I know what I wrote sounds really dumb/unbelievable but I do pretty good on prediction markets… ;) it might work for you. Very weird - no proof in the literature but it worked me.
-(I did the itch cue training around 12 or 13, tinnitus around 22)
-(I didn’t use any drugs)
It’s loads wayyy faster. I cannot understand how you haven’t experienced that. What about the fact the service hasn’t gone down practically once? Don’t you remember twitter going down for 9-10 hour stretches every 2-3 months before under new ownership? what about begging for new features and never getting anything except a new font? Elon’s twitter ships constantly (not all improvements per say) but aren’t you happy at least their shipping something?
I have been on since 2010 - you need to constantly (and always had too be) pruning your followings to remove the duds. The ‘following’ tab is only as good as your personal filter. That counts for before or after Elon
X is still good and very usable. I’m a heavy user, and I would love to be critical but the service HAS improved despite all the criticisms.
It’s getting better - I see improvements weekly to things. All the huff and fuss is from people I’m constantly wondering if they were even users prior to the Elon takeover. There was a large vocal contingent that hated twitter even prior to Elon on here, who again complained and often would note they didn’t have accounts but the service was still terrible.
The BBC and the rest should realize the service is still worthy, and Elon will allow people he disagrees with on the platform.
No matter how morally right one side might feel, it won’t stop competition.
The USA and Detroit had unions and the industry and city became gutted. Tariff and import laws to stay afloat only go so far. There will be times industry will be gutted because there’s something better.
Hollywood seems poised to lose itself - whether AI, moral grandstanding, or strange rules with skin color quotas. The writers strike is going poorly, the general American populace has no sympathy for them, and the big money maker of super hero movies is losing steam.
I switched to Capital One recently. Have a friend who works there.
However the best bank I ever used was I believe a smaller bank, 5/3rd.
5/3rd had the best service a non bloated mobile app and good rates on loans/mortgages. Moved out of the country so I closed the account but I do miss that bank
slime mold made most of his fat theory up and got shot down doing poor analysis. He’s a well meaning charlatan but a charlatan nonetheless.
skip his diet ideas. He’d tell you your baseball team lost because the humidity was too high when in actuality half the team is out sick with the flu. He ignores basic obvious reasons. Always a zebra when he thinks it’s never a horse…
those cars could be in every city and they’d run great (except snow. snow is tough, rain not so much)
but why aren’t driverless cars there?
It’s been decided you want a perfect track record, as close to flawless - to appease regulation bodies.
regulation is what kills and regulation is the biggest fear. The cars and tech are always getting better, the ‘slowness’ is deliberate, the bet is on the future.
But don’t forget about being a complete idiot sometimes: if you avoid big trucks, fast cars, and cute girls - you’ll get boring to the people you love; because to them your dumb moments made you cool
Here’s Mark Cuban saying the tech/responsiveness has improved. Does he seem like the kinda guy who needs to suck up to anyone? A guy with fuckyu levels of money?
