Has anyone here ever used that popular sleep recording app? It's used primarily to record while you sleep to see if you talk in your sleep but many people have picked up strange voices on the app.

This video discusses a few such cases.

I'd be suspicious that the App was "rigged" ... why not just use a normal recorder?

Monday night I drove home in thick fog, swirly patchy bits (perfect Halloween weather) was kinda scary in places cos even though I drive that route 5 times most weeks I still partially lost my bearings a couple of times....but it's not that I'm writing about really. I've got a dash can that bleeps when it switches on and off....now I set off and it came on OK....kept bleeping so I checked connection...OK....decided that the connection to car might have come loose but I use the rear one and decided I'd check in the morning....flipped the screen down but though it was bleeping was staying on and recording.....weird....
Yesterday I drove to friends and it was only on my return journey, thinking thankful for no fog that I remembered....dash can behaving perfectly....
NOW was it extra moisture in the air....tho heater was on ... and car WAS damp yesterday too OR did I ****** up listening to someone trying to say hello.....

Maybe a good idea to look at the state of your battery & the alternator..? The heavy load on the battery (lights,wipers,heater fan,de mister.) would drop the voltage thus affect voltage sensitive stuff like modern car radios or dash cams..? Even certain alarm systems...
Check the battery is getting a charge from the alternator of between 13.8 & 14.5 volts with the engine running & Everthing on putting a load..? If that's fine.? You may have a cell gone in the battery which will cause it to loose it's charge too quick?

Also check the terminals on the battery are tight & the "Earth strap" is in good shape & grounded to the chassis properly..?
This sort of stuff can be more evident this time of year with every thing getting switched on.

Even scarier is a bill for a new alternator.. Though it's possible to fit one in less than half an hour..;)

Saw a YouTube vid the other night where a guy set up a camera in his kitchen to catch his girlfriend out, raiding his fridge.. (She denied.)
He actually found there was a strange homeless teenage girl living in his cupboard, coming out & scavenging at night.. The girl even peed in his sink? Weird...

Found it! Though the piece I saw originally was part of a more disturbing "top 10" montage. (That I can't find now.)

Tsk! Guys, huh? Where's the magic, where's the mystery? Where's the unicorn dust?

We once had a homeless lad living in our garage for about three weeks, unbeknown to me. He was a mate of my teenage son, who claimed at first that he didn't know anything about it, but then admitted that he was feeding him on cheese sandwiches every day! 10/10 for compassion, but 0/10 for nutritional knowledge.
I only found out because I noticed a strange wet patch behind the garage every day, (which didn't have a sink) even when it wasn't raining.
It turned out to be quite sad, actually, because the lad's stepfather was abusive and violent towards him, so he had decided to leave home at the tender age of 14. Upshot was that he moved into my son's room for a month's-worth of hot dinners and flushing toilets, before his older sister could arrange to have him live with her in the north of England. Nicest lad you could wish to meet (although he was a bit whiffy the first time I met him, bless!)

To be honest.? After seeing the whole original,, I feel it was staged too.. It's said the guy is an "actor"? (Possibly "resting.")

Yes, I'm sure there's a genetic link with these abilities. I suppose in this particular respect there could potentially be a survival aspect, if one family member was in danger and needed help.
About 50 years ago my dad woke one night in a flat panic, because he'd had a premonition that there was something badly wrong with my brother and I. We were fine, but about three weeks later he had a letter from his brother in Australia to say his daughter (same age as me, and actually called Debra-Anne) had fallen into the family BBQ pit and suffered serious burns.
Yep, it turned out that - allowing for the time difference - it had happened at the exact same time my dad had got his premonition.

We lost my dad last November, a very strange weekend ahead for us as it will be the first anniversary.

Anyway, dad and I have always loved watches and he said I should have his. It's not expensive, but lovely and big and stainless steel. And not battery operated, kinetically. So, as I understand it, takes it's energy from the wearers movements.

Bear with me...:D

Andy and I finally got round to converting a bedroom into a second bathroom, thanks to a bit of help from the bank of mum. Last summer I talked to dad about tiles and said we wanted to put up matt black around the bath and shower.

He hated the idea.

On 1 August the builders finished the tiling, I walked into the room and loved them instantly.

Later, I looked at my dad's watch which I wear everyday. It had stopped. Hasn't worked since. The jewellers have had a look and can't understand it.

I just think Dad is making his feelings felt. Love him:rolleyes:

Sorry, last one I promise. Just a silly one. My penpal when I was thirteen didn't believe she sleep talked. So I recorded her. Her dad was danish, and although she only spoke a few words of the language, I taped her talking fluently of how a tractor was chasing her. She was terrified when we played it back, as were the rest of her family. :eek:
