What are the most unconventional sources of white noise you use? (lemmy.ml)

I have started listening to random American city council meetings lately for white noise. Since they're all bureaucratic-flavored boredom anyway.

How battery intensive is it? I tried sleeping to a brown noise audio file in a normal music player app (Music Player Go) and my phone ran out of battery before my alarm went off, causing me to oversleep 😬

It used to be bad on the battery, but then it became a super big focus and now it's great.

Yay! Gonna try it out for sure, then!

If you're the kind of person that plays on their phone to fall asleep, get a 10' cable so it can be plugged in while you're doing whatever you do before sleeping.
