Please make them stop. Why are they still legal? My neighbor has been using a mower, weed eater, and leaf blower for 5.5 hours. Nobody else ever notices the noise but my auditory sensitivities make me want to claw my skin off.

    Are they an Active Noise Cancelling type?

    I’ve been using the old school silicone guys with a little plastic widget that lets in a small amount of sound, unfortunately can’t use the powered type because of explosive atmosphere safety laws (smh why won’t these companies let me die /j )

        One of the rules to stop people from setting off explosions is that nobody’s allowed electronics or anything with exposed metal / has materials that pose a static charge risk in an area that could have gas or flammable dust.
