I can’t of anything that makes an unwanted sound. Old CRT TVs used to, but I haven’t used one in years. My monitor at work makes a sound when it turns on or off (I believe there’s an ass-old fuse in there), but it makes no sound otherwise.
I’m still young and hear very well, as exemplified by my annoyance of half-closed bottles of carbonated drinks, which do make a sound.
I did a lot of stuff with CRT’s during ‘Rona and man sometimes that whine just pierced my ears - my dog (RIP love ya bud) would just look at me and slowly walk off every time lol
Yes, but a bit less as I've aged probably because the higher frequency hearing we have starts to diminish the older we get.
- Belkin travel surge protector
- 5-port USB hub
- wireless charger
Thankfully none else!
I did when I was younger but I don't hear it since I hit around 30
I hear some of them. There's a real cheap one my parents got with a security camera thats real loud to me, but they don't hear it.
Since I got older this got better. One benefit I guess?
