Bone conduction headphones?

I just recently learned that this is a thing that exists. I’ve had a couple audiology tests that use these weird headphones with firm rubber balls where normally expect to see the speakers; the rubber balls sit on your temporal bone, and there’s a metal bar the wraps around your head connecting them and giving them pressure...

They’re engineered to be as obnoxious and often deceptive as possible.

I don’t mind adverts that show what a product is and what it costs, but those ones apparently underperform compared to the flashy/loud/clickbaity shit that’s infested the internet and any other space that gives them a route to invade your field of view.

Ad blockers are a must now-a-days; any video that shoves that “and now a word from our sponsors!” shit in the middle of it gets a thumbs-down; and I’ll actively avoid products I see on billboards / physical adverts.

Saw a post a long time ago about someone using gummy worms and bears etc as their minis, and players get to eat the ones they kill.

Food for thought. Literally.

[Solved!] Looking for a way to speed up audio on a website that REALLY doesn't want users to speed up audio...

Marking as solved! The solution is a tad cumbersome (can’t directly control in-browser), but it comes with a bonus I didn’t even think to ask for (mp3 files that I can save to my phone and listen to in the car!)....

[Solved - Firefox extension SingleFile converts the page to a .html file that can be accessed without login!] Any tricks to saving chapters in a digital, online-based textbook as a PDF?

Print-to-PDF is locked down. There’s a print option as part of the software, but it slaps my student email diagonally across every single page, which makes reading it kind of obnoxious....

Edit - actually I think I owe both Heath Ledger and the fictional character he was playing an apology now… feels dirty.

He’s gone this far trying to be the best little Hitler he can; kinda hoping for another parallel with the closing act.

It took a long time for me to realize “the economy” meant something completely unrelated to the purchasing power of our labor.
