This is what I use now after I lost my phone and couldn't find it

- Is this written by an alien?
In the beginning of the video she explains this isn't for everyone. Throughout the video she discusses tradeoffs. Seems pretty clear she understands the difficulty of this.
- Do you not have family you call, or a job?
Once again, this was explained in the video. WiFi is everywhere these days and there are people who don't leave home often. These are simply tradeoffs some folks might be willing to make. It really depends on an individual level and cons of this approach were made clear in the video.
- This is the stuff that makes the privacy community look like a joke
Good thing you don't speak for the entire community and this is just an opinion. This video details possibilities and can be fun to learn new things from. Seems oddly aggressive, to me, to say this over a simple video.
- This is not realistic.
Speak for yourself. People lived without phones for many years. Doesn't seem too far fetched to live with WiFi only connectivity. Once again, tradeoffs.
Do you still have a link or copy of the movie? I already liked the original but this sounds better. I don't use reddit anymore so going there to contact the guy probably won't work.
As someone who has performed multiple enterprise migrations (lift & shifts and modernizations) to AWS - this will most likely be a large undertaking. Modernizations are especially more difficult than a lift and shift. Hard to say how long it will take without knowing the entire list of things moving.
I got tinnitus just over a year ago and wow did it about ruin me. When it hit I stopped sleeping through the night, I lost a lot of weight, and my days were filled with dread from the ringing and fear of the oncoming night. This went on for about three weeks and I was thinking I couldn't live life like this much longer.
Luckily, I mentioned what was happening to me to a colleague during work hours (I still had to make money during all this.) This individual mentioned they also had tinnitus from seeing military action (IED and firing weapons with no ear protection.) They mentioned their tinnitus was so bad they could barely hear their partner talking to them from a few feet away. The big reveal for me - my colleague just learned to ignore the ringing. They mentioned how they never hear it anymore unless talking about it. This was a major revelation for me.
Mine was very loud, in both ears, but theirs seemed worse and yet they could sleep and live their life normally. After trying a lot of different things I eventually settled into my new state of life after about a month. I'm doing perfectly fine now.
What I learned for myself was the real problem was my anxiety. I was so anxious and depressed over this chronic issue that was never going away and had no cure. Tinnitus wasn't waking me up in the middle of the night like I had believed; it was the anxiety around tinnitus. Once I made this connection and started a few different tricks to alleviate tinnitus I began to sleep through the night. Now a year later I forget I have tinnitus.
I also developed vertigo, from BPPV, a few months after the start of my tinnitus. When it rains it pours I guess haha. But I used the same tools I had on me to overcome the anxiety related to tinnitus to eventually deal with BPPV and now I'm doing great.
If you're struggling with tinnitus just know it is very possible to learn to live with it and eventually forget you have it. Now, I won't make promises for everyone's case but my anxiety filled existence is an example of "recovering" from tinnitus.
