I've been wearing Airpod Pro 2s for 5 years and had no increase in my tinnitus (caused by many years of playing guitar and drums). I only wore Airpod Pro 3s for 3 days and my tinnitus increased by 3-5x. Thankfully, it went back to normal or almost normal after a few weeks. I now have a brand new pair of airpods I can't use.

Googling reveals others with the same issue with Airpod Pro 3s.

>Those who think they will take over are clueless.

You're underestimating where it's headed.

I have a policy against installing extensions but I might make an exception for this one. I default to 2x and often have to go to 3x if the speaker is really slow. The one exception is music production related videos and it is sometimes excruciating to get through. This is most likely because I'm usually watching some kind of instructional or educational video and just want the content and have no interest in being "entertained". That said, I understand that you have to game YouTube's algo and rules in order to make even a tiny bit of money. Imagine if every channel cut the first 30 seconds of every video intro and everyone could just get to the point.

So everyone are to blame except the exceedingly small number of people who supported third party candidates that had no chance?

I'll answer if you do.

First you indignantly ask why we're not protesting and then denigrate them as "little protests". Then you assert that personal firearms might solve the problem against the most technologically advanced armed forces in the world. Maybe you can share what country you live in and how you've so successfully fought against the state.

The No Kings protest was the largest in US history BTW.

“A formidable founder is one who seems like they’ll get what they want, regardless of whatever obstacles are in the way.”

Yeah, especially laws and regulations.

Correct. If you said your title in Spain, you'll get a strange look and someone might respond with "why would you tell me that?". No one there cares what you do for work.

The best example of this for me is playing drums. It's a very physical thing to do and extremely easy to get caught up in the fun of it. You find yourself playing very hard with a lot of tension everywhere. The problem is that it's very difficult to do this for long periods and if you want to play a series of fast notes accurately, it's counterproductive. So, I'm constantly telling myself to play as soft and loose as possible until one day it hopefully becomes automatic.

Respectfully, I've not seen any of these actions make a measurable difference in the last 10 years.

Driving has been reduced to an ordeal to be ensured with as little interaction with the vehicle as possible.

Let's hope that trend continues, ideally to the point that humans need to do nothing besides specify where they want to go. We're too careless to be trusted with the responsibility.

Is it "the shrinking of the hacker culture"? I've become an expert in 3 different js frameworks in the last 7 years. Its' fucking exhausting.

This is exactly the opposite of reality.
