age/damage related treble deafness isn't always just 'it's quieter' - sometimes you just get a dynamic range reduction and now instead of some cymbals being quiet and loud, they're all just medium volume forever

i've been thinking about getting some nice fitted earplugs and sure enough google decided to poo ads for this crap all over me





ISOLATE® by Flare Audio is not like any other ear plug; it blocks noise from entering your ears including bass frequencies for the first time ever without any batteries or annoying re-charging. ISOLATE® is micro in size and so can be used anywhere to isolate your ears from unwanted noise.

i was demoing some stuff about sine waves and square waves in class last semester and had the frequency generator hooked to a speaker, randomly mentioned the audible range and how you lose the high frequencies first with age and started dialing down from 20k to see who would notice first. most of the girls picked it up at 18k or so, the guys a little below that. i can barely hear 16khz.

but one guy keeps saying "nope" "nope" "nope" and looking more and more worried while all the rest of the class is grimacing from the intense obvious squealing noise. turns out he has no hearing above 10.2 and he's like 27

i asked if he played in a band and he said "no, but i go to a lot of shows..."

eh, it's Nice to keep that range but as far as voice intelligibility goes, if you've got it through 3-4 khz, you're fine. 5-7 khz or so gives you the room presence, the feeling that they're there instead of talking over a phone. he'll be alright for a bit

wow

patrick stewart as pretty scary in conspiracy theory

gravy for the brain


also punk is kind of real and necessary in china and japan even though it's expressed with loose socks

punk was never very edgy when it was a big deal in the us, by modern standards

just kids saying gently caress you dad, with very little consequence

when I was working construction someone set off the fire alarm system, maybe the electricians or the plumbers doing sprinkler, but anyway our big boss made sure we all had earplugs so that was cool

yeah I can't do 17khz anymore, apparently. I can do about 16k and then I can't really tell it is there. 15.5k I can hear super easy. 35 and I almost always wear ear protection when going to concerts or car races or skeet shooting or whatever.
