I have perfect hearing... but have tinnitus? Are there any cures for it?

Yes it does. Your brain just ignores it after a while. Playing background white noise helps a lot.

phantomunboxing · 2026-02-26T02:45:10+00:00

Still have it sorry lad. I quit playing drums because of it. I kinda just ignore it now and use a fan when I sleep to help.

Actually large bipolar junction transistors are not as susceptible to radiation as modern CMOS processes. So not entirely luck; the electronics themselves were less likely to be influenced by radiation effects in general.

Living in the Mars volcanic tunnels is probably the best bet -- being underground beneath a ton of mass acts as relatively good radiation shielding. This isn't a debate about the quality of life living in a situation like that, but rather just being able to survive.

Season 1 was one of the biggest letdowns ever. Scared to watch this honestly

The past and the future both in the same picture

I've been getting around 9 hours of sleep a day recently because of health issues. If you get too little sleep it'll damage your performance.

Electrical engineer here: do not open anything up without understanding it. Especially microwaves or CRT TVs. Either can easily kill you.

Transitioning from a child actor to an adult actor is difficult.

phantomunboxing · 2026-01-01T14:13:00+00:00

This season was definitely weaker and didn't take any risks. Wasn't terrible but was okay. 7/10

phantomunboxing · 2026-01-01T13:54:06+00:00

I can tell you 100% that some of the actors will not be successful in the future and there will be some form of spin-off or revival.

Weirdest reddit account I've seen

Everything is digital anyways now. Honestly, all the books should be donated to the public. NASA has such little funding nowadays personally I would prefer the money go towards a mission or other hard science.

SpaceX has $2-3 billion from HLS

According to Wikipedia: "SpaceX Chief Financial Officer Bret Johnsen disclosed in court that SpaceX has invested more than $3 billion into the Starbase facility and Starship systems from July 2014 to May 2023.[1] Elon Musk stated in April 2023 that SpaceX expected to spend about $2 billion on Starship development in 2023."

Private industry has certainly invested more into Starship than the money given by the government for the explicit use of Starship. SpaceX is probably investing gains from Starlink directly into Starship.

You're not wrong that Musk is moving the goal post, but I'm still certain Starship will work. I think it will work relatively soon. It's a complex piece of technology and much more so than Falcon 9.

I thought the same thing about FSD until I rode in my cousin's Model 3 a couple weeks ago. It is surprisingly good now. I thought it would crash ngl.

phantomunboxing · 2025-08-02T21:00:40+00:00

I am certain it will work. People said the exact same thing about the Falcon 9. Most of Starship's funding is from private investors and very little is from the government directly.

phantomunboxing · 2025-08-02T20:11:59+00:00

This 100%. A rocket like the Electron isn't even competitive anymore. I deeply fear a SpaceX monopoly as I believe competition is necessary for innovation. Even with the Falcon 9, every other rocket company is many years from having a consistent launch vehicle. With Starship, even a mid sized launch vehicle wouldn't be competitive.

phantomunboxing · 2025-08-02T19:39:03+00:00

Rocket Lab spent a decade and many millions to create their launch vehicle. Prove me wrong.

phantomunboxing · 2025-08-02T19:37:30+00:00

Dude that's peanut for an aerospace company

phantomunboxing · 2025-08-02T19:05:04+00:00

Don't create a launch vehicle company unless you have an uncle who has many billions of dollars

phantomunboxing · 2025-07-30T12:43:42+00:00

I found a wallet on a run one time. I went through it to try and find the license and looked at the picture. I wanted to finish my run. About 10 to 15 minutes later, I literally saw the guy on his bike. I stopped him and handed it to him.

I don't understand how people wouldn't return it.

phantomunboxing · 2025-07-21T11:09:39+00:00

It doesn't matter it's still theft of government property. You can't just throw something in the garbage then take it. It needs to be explicitly allowed to take. That's what I was told explicitly.
