   @guizzy "... you stop hearing it as you age."
   
   Either you're a few decades older than I thought, or it just hasn't happened to me yet. I've lost some high-end hearing (to they point that I can no longer hear a conversation in a crowded, noisy area), but I can still hear AC hum.

     @guizzy @coolboymew There was also a very high pitched sound produced by CRTs. NTSC (US-standard) CRTs produced a sound at 15000 Hz that got louder during darker moments such as the second or so of blackness before a commercial started.
     
     That one is definitely less audible as one gets older. At some point, it probably becomes completely inaudible (but I haven't had a CRT in many years).
