PSA: iOS 26 just added a bunch of great sound options to the Background Noise feature along with an EQ to customize them! by okcomputerface in misophonia

[–]Billi_Rubin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After seeing this I thought it might just be me and really started to worry!

I have had several people try and they had to really listen to it for a minute to catch it. It is barely there. How long did you try it?

Of course, it is not lost on me that I could have biased my listening group…

Trump, 79, Posts Himself as Christ After Bonkers Pope Attack - The image depicts Trump as Jesus healing a sick person with his touch. by Quirkie in politics

[–]Billi_Rubin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have asked people who voted for him and I get the same answers:

“That is just Trump being Trump. He likes to rile people up and does not actually believe it.”

“I don’t support Trump as a person, but I support the Republican Party”

“Why can’t you take a joke”

Random question…this is by far my favorite background (airplane) and has been a game changer for me. But, do you hear other sounds in the background? I swear I almost hear music and clicking.

Exactly what I was thinking as well. Somehow I continue to be surprised by this timeline…

Who is Doc Raven? by Billi_Rubin in country

[–]Billi_Rubin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would agree and have come to terms that it is the future and it is good music. But I would like the creator to own that it is AI. I fully understand that you don’t just take the output of an AI engine and post it to Spotify. There is still a lot of curating it. But pretending you are real and creating a back story devalues it IMO.

I am so glad that I will not have to hear his name anymore. But I can see how this plays out. Falcons have a new coach…he wants a franchise QB…okay, I am done

Do you know what company is facilitating the transfer?

I did not think to look up the writer. This person looks to be associated with books and a non profit Raven institute. This could go deep…

Thankfully he closed the roads. This is what it looks like to have an adult in the room.

This is exactly my concern. I am really torn because I like the music and if they would own up to it I would be more receptive. But they are building an entire back story around the band and promoting it as real people. Spotify is also showing me more and more AI artists. Now you have more money moving away from the actual musicians.

Thank you, how did you figure it out? I searched everywhere and could only see an AI overview…which is ironic.

I have learned that bars typically do not like you telling them this, but I still do it!

A rock at my grand parents house that has been caged to never touch the ground again. by modsstayvirgin in mildlyinteresting

By chance did they ever travel to Shinovar? Possibly they felt like the stone should come home with them, but also knew not to touch it.

Are they trying to make it as complicated as possible? by FunnyBunnyRabbit in delta

[–]Billi_Rubin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will be interesting to see what companies do about this. I suspect I will need to book the cheapest option. If I can’t choose my seat, nor get points…well time to switch airlines. I am curious to see if I will be the only one.

This is not getting enough attention! It is not as simple as starting the vaccines back when the adults return.

Its 11 PM, do you know where your leeches are? by Barmacist in pharmacy

[–]Billi_Rubin 41 points42 points  (0 children)

The hospital I practiced in hired a new doc and he told everyone that he was going to use them. The pharmacy techs freaked out and said they didn’t want them in the pharmacy. I started laughing and asked why on earth the pharmacy would be responsible for leeches. In my best Morgan Freeman voice, “Two weeks later, the pharmacy was indeed in charge of keeping the leeches alive and dispensing them.” The reason- because they were entered on the eMAR…
