    “[Loop] had already been marketing #earplugs as something that could help #concertgoers party longer and hear the #music better […] promising a superior listening experience for music. The company realized […] that people were buying earplugs to control the #noise around them—to get better #sleep or to find some #quiet […]. [I]ts users [also] included often-overlooked segments, like the #neurodivergents and #parents […]”

  3. Ich hab vermutlich zu spät dran gedacht, aber falls ein Wesen auf dem #38c3 vielleicht eine andere #Loop #Earplugs Größe trägt als M, ich hätte XS, und S und L zu tauschen gegen andere in M. Farbe wäre mir egal. #tauschbörse

  4. Went to see #Metallica on their Detroit stop of the #M72 tour last night and boy do these old men still know how to bring the heavy. From the traditional #EcstasyOfGold opener straight into #CreepingDeath to the fire of #Fuel and the #MasterOfPuppets closer this was a perfect version of a Metallica live experience.

    Related, I brought two different #earplugs as well as #AirPodsPro gen 2 and I didn’t even need to switch around between them: AirPods Pro in Adaptive mode did a _fantastic_ job of attenuating the Bad Highs while letting the physical experience of the Good Lows do their job. No ear exhaustion, no ominous ringing after🤘

  5. Of course the product isn’t defective if you settle your defective-product claim for for $6,000,000,000.🙄

    ‘Some troops who have filed #lawsuits over #earplugs they say were #defective may be in line for around $15,000 each as part of a $6 billion settlement with manufacturing conglomerate #3M, Task& Purpose has learned…As part of the settlement, 3M maintains that the plugs were “safe and effective when used properly.”‘

  6. So I'm going to an event designed for autistic people today. I suspect it is going to be quiet, but I'm going to have my Loop Engage earplugs on me. I might ask people what they think of those earplugs.

  7. So I went to my event and hated the Loop Engage. 😕 I call bullshit on the notion that they are perfect for social gatherings. I had to take them out in order to hear people clearly.

    Right now, it looks like I'm going to return my entire order to Loop.

  8. In 1969, four baby elephants were introduced to Windsor Safari Park near Heathrow airport, but the planes were so loud it caused the babies to stampede. There could be only one solution: elephant earmuffs.

  9. Dear #GenX'er who can't handle the sound of #birds in the morning. Don't chop down all the trees.

    STEP 1: Open cupboard and locate #blutack.
    STEP 2: Roll blutack into a bean shape and insert into #ear that will not be on pillow.
    STEP 3: #Sleep.

    Birds and #trees do great things, and themselves provide #restorative benefits to #theHumanBody, which are documented in numerous studies.
