Semi-related, I did get my hearing professionally checked by an audiologist a few years ago because I was having trouble hearing people right near me in loud bars or restaurants.
Passed with flying colours, even the tests that had me picking out words said very quietly with a lot of background burbling talking scenario.
In real life, I somehow often unwillingly focus on a conversation from a table behind or two over from where I'm at and can't maintain focus on the one really close and relevant. That's not a physical hearing thing, but a ... brain thing?
Anyways, separate from the "I can hear the person you are talking to, there's no privacy for the remote side when you make any phone call with me in the room" :/
I love when a company emails me changes to their privacy policy or that they now offer a unified login across their various properties they have bought up. Gives me the opportunity to ask them to delete my account and all of the related data.
To be honest, most times I had completely forgotten about said company.
Went for a haircut today, long overdue. Tried a new barber shop, cash only place (though e-transfers work). Best barber I’ve had in a while, will keep them. Usually get a buzz but went down to the wood today for the first time. My poor widdle head is cold now.
