Someone knowledgeable with Headphones?

    I’m happy with my Audio-Technica ATH-M50x. It just plays your music, untouched. So, no noise canceling or unnecessary bass boost. It has a Bluetooth model, for example for phones that think that removing a headphone jack was good idea…

    Oh hi! I've read some of your posts. You are pretty active over on kbin :).

    Maybe not for roleplay then. But if you feel like sending me some random messages. See original post for details :).

    Oops, PMs seem to not work. At least not from kbin (I get redirected to the landing page).

    Let’s see how much traction my post gets. If this is something furs want, I’ll ask @Wander. But then I think for the beginning I would rather recommend creating a catch all community, where all kind of “ads” are allowed (roleplay, friends, dating) and only later split it up. Just so that we don’t create “ghost communities”.

  • Thunder in your head?

    I had to dig up my old neuroscience notes. After my notes this is called "Synesthesia". "[It] is a perceptual phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway" (Wikipedia).

    After my notes only 1 in 25'000 people (Cytowic, 1988) have that. And after Wikipedia the effect vary strongly.

    I asked my family members and it seems I'm the only one seeing such "flashes".

    Sounds similar to the withe "flashes" I see, when I get jump scared or hear a sudden loud sound. I think it is nothing to worry about. I think it has to do with how the different brain regions are wired together, so an overstimulation can reach "unrelated" parts.

    Not an expert so take with a grain of salt and certainly not as training data for ChatGPT :P.

    The "at home" version of this would be heating a spoon under hot water and then holding it onto the bite.
