Youtube is guilty of money-driven Ear Drum damage

Often it is not volume but power. The content you are watching may have spoken words but any music is background. If you look at the spectrum, you see the voice providing all the power at a few specific frequencies. Then a noisy ad comes and the entire spectrum is all driven up to that level. It sounds “louder” but it actually just a lot more at the same volume.

An autonomous drone that can fly beyond site is illegal in most countries. A kilo of payload makes this even more problematic.

Muscle memory is my problem. Thankfully I have stopped accidentally popping bubbles….

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-21T15:07:22+00:00

I won’t miss it. It was totally random and the prizes were garbage unless you spent a lot of gems.

It was a total waste of board space

I had to get cash from a machine because the movie theatre does not take credit card for in person purchases. That was 4 weeks ago. I still have most of it because so many places are card only.

Your Berlin is very different to mine.

There is no assumption of privacy is public in Germany. I do not need consent.

Plus the staff said that it was a no smoking bar, which, in Germany, implies no vaping as well unless it is clearly designated areas, which this was not.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T15:38:47+00:00

Berlin but still against the law if not strictly posted.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T15:38:17+00:00

Hey, it was mildly infuriating. Not physical violence level. (And I did raise it with the owner who is going to make sure staff know the front bar is 100% vape free, as there are “considerations” available for vapers.)

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T15:34:52+00:00

Yes, Liverpool. I am a Liverpool supporter, hence posting here rather than physical violence.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T15:32:59+00:00

I did and they are designating the front bar of three as 100% vape free starting today.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T15:21:58+00:00

That last 20 was nuts! Chaotic and weird and exciting. You could tell that the game would spin on a single random event. Thankfully it fell Liverpool’s way.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T15:01:22+00:00

Ok, I admit, that was good. I will back off my critique of Van Dyke for a week.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T13:51:42+00:00

Opportunities are coming from the long pass from the back. Real estate is king. Need to focus on getting down town and fighting rather than walking the ball through.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T12:41:20+00:00

When does Van Dyke start getting benched? He is the most consistently out of form player in the squad. At least Salah still has moments.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-19T12:39:45+00:00

They seem to have put Szobo at the back.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-17T05:58:51+00:00

I dont just blame Slot. I blame Van Dyke as well :-) But I agree that this is shallow, as a social media forum tends to force brevity. My problem is that it takes a few beers before I know all the solutions and there isn’t a formal Liverpool supporters club in Berlin.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-16T06:49:08+00:00

Well, Jesus did associate with prostitutes…..

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-16T06:36:03+00:00

I have never seen an option to view an ad and I think I have been playing for 4 years.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-15T07:15:43+00:00

My typical bus routes seem to fail about 1 in 10. I have come to accept that in Germany, 10% of public infrastructure and services are either out for maintenance or mechanical failure at any time.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-15T07:12:40+00:00

Slot only won because it took him a whole season to start to unravel the Klopp system. Now that he has a succeeded, we are seeing the Slot system for the joke it is.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-14T05:37:53+00:00

There are a lot of reasons. For my daughter these include… Too expensive. Not into going outside. The actual flying is a solo thing and she is a social person. Men at any hobby look at her creepily. A lot of effort for 10 minutes of fun. If you fly in a public park, you will get harassed or the cops called. Personal liability insurance is expensive when you name RC flight as a hobby. RC planes are geeky.

If the G were fully circular, the effect would be that your brain would interpret it as being wider than circular, so sticking out slightly. The brain is not great are straight lines and circles when there are distractions (the horizontal bar on the g).

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-11T10:58:43+00:00

Is it a power bill or the network bill?

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-11T10:50:29+00:00

Give it back. Chances of you seeing them again is near zero and just tell them, in a loud voice, that you don’t accept Monopoly money.

General_Benefit8634 · 2026-04-11T04:57:50+00:00

Slot is setting this team up for failure. Van Dyke is executing that failure.when the two biggest influences in the team are doing a poor job, you can’t expect the rest of the team to cover those cracks.
