My friends and I used to drive out to an area of the desert, away from people and the general noise of civilization. However, there were large power transmission lines going through the area and we could listen to them crackle in the night as we watched the stars. Just a nice way to relax and get away from it all.
I can’t of anything that makes an unwanted sound. Old CRT TVs used to, but I haven’t used one in years. My monitor at work makes a sound when it turns on or off (I believe there’s an ass-old fuse in there), but it makes no sound otherwise.
I’m still young and hear very well, as exemplified by my annoyance of half-closed bottles of carbonated drinks, which do make a sound.
I did a lot of stuff with CRT’s during ‘Rona and man sometimes that whine just pierced my ears - my dog (RIP love ya bud) would just look at me and slowly walk off every time lol

Thankfully none else!
Yes, but generally only bad quality loud ones.
Yes, but a bit less as I've aged probably because the higher frequency hearing we have starts to diminish the older we get.
I did when I was younger but I don't hear it since I hit around 30
I hear some of them. There's a real cheap one my parents got with a security camera thats real loud to me, but they don't hear it.
Since I got older this got better. One benefit I guess?
I used to think I do, but I convinced myself I have a tinnitus.
