Can't have the lazy proletariat forging in real life connections and asking questions. They've got a fresh new pod for you to live in and all the crickets you can eat. Especially on the verge of the depression at a moment when so

I appreciate the insight, this prompted me to poke around the FEMA site and see how transparent they are - to my shock, they actually did a good job of presenting the cost breakdowns and where the money goes. This kind of surprised me thoug

Wouldn't it be better if more local people were subscribed to StarLink to begin with? People like you literally cannot be happy about anything. Good grief. I mean, Comcast and Xfinity will probably not go down the next time this happen

What did they spend this years budget on specifically? I think the majority of this country views them as the go to for "Emergency Management" at the federal level. Are they using their money on other things that are not related?

So it literally doesn't matter to you if he is lying or not, you simply want to make your opposition to him known in a thread that has basically nothing to do with him. Way to contribute - you are going places. (nowhere I'd want t

Addicts absolutely do carry Narcan, and are responsible for getting it allowed OTC. There was a time where you got MORE charges for having narcan (this would be around the Iraq war era). I know a lot of addicts as well, and every single on

Calling out 'Republicans' as particularly anti-semitic is preposterous. I have no idea what Zuckerberg will or won't do in the future, but this statement is so absurdly loaded and divorced from reality it is a genuine shame t

It's a matter of breaking down the components themselves, the quality, the processing, the amplifier, etc -- and miniaturizing it. This isn't like an audiophile with golden speaker wire or whatever -- it's literally the compo

Because your airpods and OTC hearing aids are using about half the number of microphones and speakers, with half the quality, and with an amplifier with about half the cost and quality as well. Airpods actualy do a little better than the &

It really doesn't though - actual hearing aids have way higher end speakers, microphones, and other sensors that result in the high price tag. It's great that apple is offering this, I am not opposed to that at all. I am opposed

This, like most bs we have had to endure, is certainly due to them changing the definition of hearing aids. (no, I am not joking). This is why you can buy 'hearing aids' from costco now, without ever seeing an audiologist. I think
