I'm using over-ear headphones for 2 reasons: blocks noise better and ... ear wax... tends to build up in in-ear ones. Is the latter somehow different for airpods...? It's probably not a popular subject to talk about

vemv17:09:45

That brought to mind something I had pending to do: get myself ACS in-ear monitors. I've been using their custom-molded ear protection since 2019. Total game changer, you get flat frequency filtering (i.e. natural sound) and some 25db of attenuation - enough to not fear for hearing loss at concerts / events So now I want their earphones, which block outer sound (given the custom molding) and provide musician-grade sound quality https://www.acscustom.com/uk/products/in-ear-monitors airpods or whatever people are using with bluetooth / noise cancellation etc always seemed pish posh to me... always better to keep it analog 🤓

I have a funny ear story. I went for a hearing test ages ago and after the test was complete I was asked if I was a hunter, because I had a dead spot in my hearing that he’d often seen caused by rifle shot. I was really confused until I remembered my old workmate Tom. He sneezed so loud and abruptly. Not only did he scare the wits out of me several times a day, he created a dead spot in my hearing. Good old Tom!

I read that the ears have some physical mechanism that dampens the eardrum on loud sounds, but the sounds can be too quick for the mechanism to work properly. I fear that my son's sudden shrieks may have damaged my ears even more than they were already.

lread19:09:14

Is his name Tom?

Nah. His sneezes are cute and slow, and he finds them hilarious.

Tom was apologetic about his sneezes. They scared him too!
