I just press a button on my tablet and circle the image for results, I hate AI but for things like this it comes in very handy.
AI is ruining the internet though with it's Google search results, meaning websites are losing clicks.

You could play with all sorts of stuff to try and get that (those) out, only to find there's nothing you can fix or replace in there.
Tamper proof usually means chuck it and buy another

Are you the type of person that doesn't know how to fix stuff? 
Or maybe Tamper Proof means Carth Proof. . There is no Macgyver in you.

Google seems to suggest clean them after each use to remove sweat and skin oils.
I know the problem it happened on my Pulse playstation headset with plastic ear muffs, on my Steelseries the muffs are fabric so doesn't seem to have been a problem so far as I never clean them.
You can likely buy replacements easily if it does happen though.

The extractor above the hob, quite easy really - took the old one down and put the new one up. All fixed and working and some brownie points in the bank for future use. Even got extra points for tidying tools away without be reminded

Re: What have you fixed lately?
Please anybody know of a very good shower head with multi spray functions. I currently have an aqualisa . It's not an electric shower if that matters.

I got mine from Tesco years ago but I would just recommend firing up Amazon and looking there.

Re: What have you fixed lately?
I just purchased this
https://showery.co.uk/products/5-mod...re-shower-head
from vinted £13.70 delivered
A bit concerning it's been put up for sale but for near £10 it's worth a punt
Council come out this morning and replaced my aqualisa like for like bar the hose because the supplied hose is plastic which kinks because it's too short a hose, a basic longer metal hose out performs it all day long so that remained in place. Why do they supply short hoses?

if you have a problem with a short hose i think medical intervention can sort it out
