How much concrete did they pour to build the infrastructure needed to host the games? I’d really like an analysis of that and the carbon footprint left behind by a few dozen AC units over a couple weeks.

I don’t think it’s illegal (at least in the US), but it’s a great way to have your best talent split for greener pastures while the mediocre and lesser talented employees hang around forever.
I work in the same industry as Dell and turned down a job there for a reseller who will let me work remotely in perpetuity.
As my accountant once told me: if it floats, flies, or fucks, lease it.
There was actually a story on 60 minutes just last night about this very thing. They did interview people who have been targeted by “acoustic” weapons.
I’m not buying into any conspiracies, and I will point out further that Serbia doesn’t even recognize Kosovo as a legitimate nation. So by continuing to push their currency in a sovereign country that uses the Euro, Serbia is continuing to attempt to delegitimize them as a nation.
I don’t know if this is the right move or not by Kosovo, that’s above my pay grade. But there are certainly worse ways for them to assert their independence than insisting on using the nationally adopted currency.
And if you’re even a little older than that, you know about Milošević, and his despotic behavior towards ethnic Albanians in Kosovo (along with his war crimes in Croatia and Bosnia, as well).
So yeah, they’re probably still a little sore with Serbia.
Highlighting tensions, Serbia’s populist president, Aleksandar Vučić, said the ban on the dinar was part of a wider policy to ethnically cleanse the Serbs from Kosovo…
I guess if anyone would know about ethnic cleansing in Kosovo, it would be Serbia.
So a few great points you made here.
I told the audiologist that it’s almost crippling, and she made a point to tell me to get help if I’m thinking of harming myself. I’m not, because I’ll just pipe white noise throughout my entire house before I consider that. That seems to dull it a bit for me. iPhones have an app called “hearing” built into control center that you can enable, and it plays different kinds of white noise. I run that all night and it seems to help dull my tinnitus a bit while I sleep. I do have the over the ear noise cancelling headphones, and playing music through that does help me as well.
there’s no direct treatment afaik also. My blood pressure isn’t a factor here, but that was looked at. And the audiologist also made the same point about the brain compensating for hearing loss. According to what I was told, it’s a symptom of hearing loss, not the cause. My mom has hearing aids, and in her case, they pretty much eliminated her tinnitus, which I’m just praying that it does the same for me, or at least lessens it.
Everyone’s tinnitus is different for sure, but I’m just hoping that wearing the hearing aids will at least dull mine a bit. I test fit some and it definitely helped with hearing conversations, so here’s to hoping I guess.
To be clear, they aren’t bad questions you’re asking, but it’s hard to explain unless you experience it. For fun, search “6500 hz tinnitus” On youtube, and see how long you can stand it. Then understand that I’ve been hearing that nonstop for like 2 years now, 24/7
The ones for $5k I’m looking at can connect with a phone app via BT that adjusts volume on ears separately, and answer the phone as well. With the tinnitus I have, I don’t care what I look like, it’s slowly driving me insane.
I’ve been told the tinnitus is the symptom of hearing loss and not the cause, and that it can be corrected with hearing aids. I’d give my left nut if that were true though, so I don’t know.
I’ve got moderate hearing loss, and in situations with a lot of background noise, (bars, restaurants, etc) I’ve given up on trying to be part of conversations. I’ll just zone out on the tv or stare at my phone. As someone who is outgoing and enjoys conversation, it’s a horrible turn of events. Since American healthcare feels that hearing is a luxury, nothing is covered. And I don’t have $5k laying around to fix it. I’ve test fit the cheaper ones, but they don’t fix my issues.
Holy shit, that’s like the who’s who of disgusting fucking food.
If you owe the bank $100, that’s your problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, that’s the bank’s problem.
Would somebody be kind enough to explain the value (to the customer) of an IoT mattress? I’ve put some thought into it and I’m coming up empty.
I was in endpoint management and security until last year. I got my A+ and sec+, and couldn’t find a job. I did actually find a job, but these fucks wanted to pay me less than I’m making in business ops now. So anything bad these companies have coming to them, they absolutely deserve it.
