It's all fun and games until you get even mild tinnitus and need some sound to not constantly hear iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
No need for tinnitus when you can hear coil whine.
Bonus point for making me feel like it is going to start burning any time soon.
This, I use earbuds at work my entire shift (when I'm not in a meeting or on the phone) to 1) drown out the tinnitus, and 2) drown out the noise around me. Even though I'm 99% WFH now I still do it just to maintain my focus. I'm mostly podcasts and audiobooks, but when I really have to focus and work fast it all music and it's fast metal turned up to 11.
I guess I lump that in with sounds I ignore. I’ve had it for a loooong time, and it doesn’t bother me until I think about it (so you know, thanks.. 😑😜)
For me it's only easy to ignore if there is some background sound. By that I mean the most basics like the fans on a computer or just the wind outside. Or the echo of the room itself.
The problem is that I like to use over-the-ear closed headphones that block out most noise. So as soon as I stop playing anything, it becomes very obvious.
