    Shake awake alarm clock

    I have the sonic boom clock- going on...17 years now... still works aside from a few strange quirks. I use a lamp for my wake up... seems to work better for me. If you use a brighter LED bulb...whoo boy it will wake you. For travel and short stays (ahem 3 months) elsewhere I now use a Sonic...

    Post your gas prices Part II

    At the corner mart/gas station (it's family owned and I just found out has been there for 30 years now- wild considering the houses my family lives in have all been built somewhere between 1998 to 2000.. I think. Not real sure on aunt's)... Errr... anyway.. Corner mart- the 87 grade gas is...

    ?? They do? My Galaxy s8 didn't have any of those apps already on the phone- you can download them from the App store though (iTunes/App Store for Apple, GooglePlay for android).

    Any deaf people here who like rock?

    Love music and prefer that to listening to people LOL. Queen is my favorite among others. I have a wide range of music I like - minus some types of Rap, Country, Opera and traditional Classical.

    Let’s help each other please

    there is at least one thread on All Dead about the same or similar topic to yours that others have posted. What languages/libraries are you going to use? (I'm a fairly newbie /"baby" Web Dev and trying to build my own portfolio...)

    Using an interpreter

    Most places don't know how unfortunately. I ran into that when I went to Utah. Had to help them and direct them where to go or who to talk to (Luckily the program I attended was affiliated with UofU anyway so got services through their interpreting department :). With churches- I sometimes...

    Super power HA/CI. question

    Yes according to this article, Beltone is actually a subsidiary of GN Resound... but I don't think they're "basically ReSound aids marketed" under the Beltone name. Feels like Beltone is still a wholly separate company... just an "arm" or subsidiary of ReSound...

    Talents shows?

    Hell's Kitchen and The Amazing Race are two that I watch.. and guilty pleasure is America's Got Talent. Sort of losing hope with TAR because they keep stuffing it full of "celebrity" casts... it's been years since they kept it to the original premise- ordinary people who may or may not be fans...

    Deaf Devices for Cars?

    After having my battery drained... twice... from forgetting to turn off the headlights, I now try to remember to walk AROUND the car to make sure the lights are off (the back lights are harder to see on my old car). I thought I remember some older cars where if you open the door and the...

    Would Like Your Thoughts

    First.. I grew up ORAL and did not have ASL until I was 18 so technically English is my first language. And I still feel the same way.. that my ears are not "broken". The way my ears function is all I've ever know so to me they are not broken. I get that someone is trying to impress on us...

    Questions

    Most, if not all, the apps like one you used (which one I don't know)- speech to text- don't work well or at all in a situation like that because a)I am betting the speaker was too far away and b)microphones on most cell phones REALLY suck except for phone calls - when you have it right up near...

    Dominant hands?

    Just be careful not to switch in the middle of a sentence- especially fingerspelling lol. It's not super bad but it does distract a little sometimes. I think maybe in time you'll be able to settle into something that works for you and end up with a dominate hand. :)
