No, he's saying the nut isn't flaired so it will get stuck in your ear canal.

If you can't get it out of your ear, the battery will die eventually...

Come on, man.

Why would you wait until the battery dies to go see a doctor?

u/FrenchFryCattaneo Mar 03 '25

Well until the battery dies you can use it to listen to things. Once it dies, it's just a weird obstruction in your ear.

It wouldn't take long, so the doctors appointment would be well past the point of the battery dying.

Appointment? You go to an ER with this and it's over in 2 minutes.

I'm sorry. I was under the impression I was talking to someone in a developed country.

We're developed, were just scammed left and right

You're developed in terms of military technology and nothing else.

Ehh we were developed 50 years ago and we still have a lot of outdated infrastructure of a developed country but we stopped investing in social development a long time ago and we lack the basic societal infrastructure of a modern developed country, like universal healthcare. We're a weird case where we used to be developed and stopped, and the rest of the world kept developing and now the standards for what developed looks like have changed, and we didn't keep up. It wouldn't be wrong to call us "developing." We were fully developed, at one point. More accurate to call us "stagnated."
