    Anyone else who wears an aide

    While I wore a hearing aid (only on the right side like your situation) It came off ass soon as I was done with work. After spending a 8+ hours listening I was fatigued. I also wear earplugs when I go shopping in noisy places.

    Pepsi's New Super Bowl Deaf Ad

    I think this is great but there are a few small problems. 1) it may perpetuate the stereotype that deaf people are jerks. 2) the braille font under the word "enable" in the new pepsi logo will only perpetuate the belief that deaf people read braille. (I suppose getting asked of we read...

    movie warez

    It's a bit of a paradox, for now anyway. I have downloaded SRT files from various movie subtitle websites so that I could enjoy a movie on Netflix's "watch instantly" service. I'm aware that the only reason that these SRT files are available is because people download movies to watch them...

    Subtitling Online Movies and videos

    I agree . I'd like to add that the PDF file is crap. The first hyperlink is no longer a valid link (site is now a URL-squatter site) a short while ago I began working on a method of watching the streaming video from Netflix with subtitles. the thread is here...

    White noise?

    It might be environmental background noise, a fan in a computer, an air vent who knows. I had a similar experience with my new hearing aid and in certain places I wouldn't get it, such as the inside of my car before I turned anything on and the door was closed. if you can't find a place...

    You beat me to it, I was going to say that they could have avoided being arrested had they seen that movie. :)

    Netflix and closed captions on DVDs

    My DVD player doesn't support progressive scan but from reading many other DVD related threads on alldeaf.com I've learned that you can't ever display CC when progressive scan mode is on. I suspect progressive scan messes with the VBI part of the signal, Progressive scan draws every line of a...

    Subtitles on Netflix Watch Instantly -- sortof.

    None of the Watch instantly movies are captioned. Unless you count the foreign films, that are subtitled in English. Such as "Pan's Labyrinth" (I recommend renting that one by the way) I recently discovered that you can download the subtitle files separately from various subtitle websites...

    Subtitles on Netflix Watch Instantly -- sortof.

    The thing you're trying to do is off topic, but I can answer your question. The easist (and possibly fastest) way to copy a DVD to MPEG4 and keep subtitles is to record it with a camera that records directly to MPEG4. I was playing around with my Kodak easyshare camera a while back and...

    Where can I hide bodies online?

    Shut up and sign!!!!

    I agree with this, their young minds cannot grasp a complex concept as deafness.

    speed connection

    I could guess at what you're talking about but it would be a lot easier if you told us more about what you're doing, and what you need to know. your question is out of context and It's hard to give you a useful answer.

    Help with Sharp Aquos TV

    AQUOS lcd televisions | manuals I did a quick search and found the manual(s) for the TV you mentioned. It looks like the only way to turn on CC is to press the CC button on the remote. If there is no CC button, you might be using a universal remote or a compatible remote that didn't come...

    Subtitles on Netflix Watch Instantly -- sortof.

    More options, nothing perfect yet. Since I started this thread I've worked at trying to find a better solution playing subtitles during Netflix Watch Instantly. I couldn't make my 2hour AVI of black frames any smaller, but, when it's zipped it's only about 400k! I've made it available for...

    Mr Bean's Holiday Movie

    I watched "Mr. Bean's Holiday" on DVD last night it was Awful! I'm a big Mr Bean fan but, wow this movie was crap! And to top it off the subtitles were terrible. If Mr Bean says "Gracias" when talking to a french waiter, I want to see the word "Gracias" not "(Speaking Spanish)"

    I'm writting a paper for my Deaf culture class and I need your help...

    You reminded me... oh I miss live theater!! I'm not even 30 yet and I'll never again be able to enjoy going to a live stage performance. I forget because in my world it doesn't exist, it can't exist, I'll just disappoint myself if I allow it to exist in my mind. I also forgot about hearing...
