    From Sean Dennis@618:618/1 to All on Tue Nov 18 19:33:44 2025
    Hello everybody!

    I just discovered that my hearing aids can sense if I have fallen. In its phone app, I can set it up to where if I've fallen, the software can send a text to people I authorize it to do so and the text will let them know I've fallen and give my exact GPS coordinates to them so they can call for help.

    It's amazing what technology canb (and can't) do these days.

    Oddly my phone told me yesterday that I am at risk of falling. I don't know how it knows. Dark magic that
