  1. Well, I'm convinced.

    Thinking it was dry today (!), I went out without a beanie, so was exposed to the full blast of the tills at Tesco Stornoway, and came out with temporary hearing loss. Time I emulated that kid (mastodon.scot/@electropict/116) and got some #noiseCancelling tech.

    I did have a pair of Dr. Dre (?) headphones a few years ago which were good at keeping the sound of an SDS chisel out but made their own hiss which ruined them for music. Suggestions?

  2. #Škoda's Brilliant New #Bicycle Bell Penetrates The #NoiseCancelling Headphones Of Ignorant Pedestrians
    #Skoda worked with scientists from the University of Salford to find a frequency that can penetrate #ANC headphones.
    Called the #DuoBell, it aims to reduce the recent 24% rise in cyclist-on-pedestrian collisions recorded in London in 2024, much of which is blamed on the increased popularity of pedestrians using #noisecancellingheadphones.

  3. @ljo Fortunately my #JollaC2 has a 3.5 mm connector for a stable earphone plug connection ... but in-ear and headache makes the #NoiseCancelling over-ear headphones more attractive for complete silence right now. #OAO
