Re: Bose Hearphones
#53I really wish someone was working to solve the problem of tinnitus. Would it be possible to generate anti phase wave out of these things to cancel out tinnitus? I would pay anything and/or wear any goofy device in my ears to live life tinnitus free.
I think there already is a kind of therapy. I read that they basically determine the exact frequency of your tinnitus. Then you give them music you like and they filter the frequency out. By listening to the altered music, the tinnitus is reduced. It seemed to work quiet well, but I forgot what the procedure is called. I'm hearing a tinnitus for over 10 years now, so I know what it's like. :)
That seems straightforward enough that you could try it on your own?

Moral of the story: don't hit the database for brochure pages, except in an async way that won't block page loads on fail.

#56Earlier quoted context omitted.
I've learned that it is just necessary to bring foam earplugs to a lot of events. (even movie theaters now). In general, if the performers are wearing them, you probably should be, too. Your health is not a good place to think about being worried about what other people aren't doing to protect theirs.
You should look into something like these instead of regular foam. http://www.etymotic.com/consumer/hearing-protection.html I got a pair for EDC after realizing the foam earplugs were ruining the music. These reduce the volume with minimal muffling. Also pretty cheap considering they'll last a long time. I picked them up at guitar center - they can help you get the right ones.
I second this. I've mostly used datacenter earplugs over the years, which really mangle music. These earplugs are sold to musicians and are really great for music.

I always have these available around my house... I used to carry them with me everywhere. I started using them in the 90s rave scene in SF. I would go to a party and would always bring earplugs with me, extra ones and hand them out. Especially to people who appeared to have had... a little too much. Sometimes handing a plastic bag of earplugs to someone who has had too much is a great thing from them as it helps them…
I used to do this at Ska concerts in NY. I am a woodworker and always have a gigantic box of them at home, so it was easy to fill a ziplock.
One time I got grabbed by a bunch of bouncers and forcibly expelled from the venue - they thought the purple earplugs were drugs. Once they realized they were super apologetic and we had a good laugh about it.

#58Someone will have to explain the difference between these and your average hearing aids, which perform a very similar function, but tuned by an audiologist to your needs.
Hearing aids compensate for a health problem, the goal here seems to be to improve hearing even for those that don't have hearing problems.
If hearing aids are glasses, these are binoculars/telescopes/microscopes.

#59OT: I've seen an error page when opening it for the first time: PDOException: SQLSTATE[HY000] [1040] Too many connections in lock_may_be_available() (line 167 of /var/app/current/hearphones/includes/lock.inc). Reloading once made it work. Out of curiosity, is this an amost-hug of death or something else broken? (I know nothing about Drupal.)
It's a Drupal website. 10 concurrent users probably gives it a hug of death.

Do hearing aids allow someone who is not deaf to tune out ambient noise (active noise cancellation)? Looks like these might do that.
Some do, although this may be limited to high-end models?
I have a friend who uses hearing aids. They can tune out background noise, focus on directions, turn off hearing, and even listen to magnetic fields (while debugging circuits). I've occasionally felt a bit envious.
