My favorite memory of middle school was finding a random 8 gb flash drive in the school parking lot. It was completely empty aside from an 18 second video of a bad recording of “Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island” with arguing parents in the background. Made me feel something that day
Presenter is a lot of it. Game Sack is a wonderfully informative channel about a very large amount of game topics. They've had 250k subs for like 10 years. Long form eps, very detailed, tons of work goes into em. Dudes (I should say dude, one of em went back to his day job) are just not very entertaining and haven't come all the way round like someone like techmoan in terms of being informative. I've been subbed to Game Sack since around 2012 maybe 2013 and would love to see them grow but its just not gunna happen, unfortunately.
"So someone had an ipod engraved and then never open it?!" I actually did that, except I did open it, used for about two weeks until I realised how much it sucked and then sold it. So somewhere someone has an ipod nano with the engraving "E+J=Unity" because I was 14 and deep. Only not 14. More like 24. Not my proudest moment.
This takes me back to having my first iPod Shuffle!! The shuffle mode was also funny because it had a very predictable pattern... so I made sure it was at a specific song to play the bunch of songs in a way that that I like
6:03 seeing how ridiculously thin the cable on that USB extension is, it doesn't surprise me at all it didn't even attempt to charge. The voltage drop must be insane, like on a lot of those cheapo extensions (5V in, 4.4V out (out of spec already) and when you actually connect something that consumes power it drops even further)
0:35 OMG MY CHILDHOOD JUST FLASHED BEFORE MY EYES WHEN YOU PUT A SCREENSHOT OF DRAG RACER V3 UP THERE. Thank you so much for this. Seeing that game again is like seeing an old friend you forgot about but only have fond memories of.
I remember paying $300 for a 16 GB thumb drive in college; strange to think such things were a literal status symbol back in the day and now you can get a micro SD with 256GB from SanDisk and drop less than a season pass in a modern game now. Edit: fun fact, Mindshare is a media company, so this was likely a corpo party favor that didn't get given away
Still have one of my SD cards with 256 MB around. At some point in the future I see people looking for small drives to get older stuff to work, and we'll be there to sell our classics.
This was my first exposure to Apple. I found the little stick in the back of the garage with a waterproof case with the o'l dirtybuds. Ask my dad what was it and he was like, ehhh you can have it. Still cherish the thing to this day.
i remember my stepdad setting me up with both a set of flash drives and floppy discs because of the turning tech advancements by the time i was in 5th grade. On a side note, your **handled with care** things kill me every dang time. I love your videos
@Krazy Kommando Yep, they were nice and neutral too and had okay clarity, but Apple doesn't like okay clarity, they like massive profit margins and screwing over customers
@@xxyvng6831 haven't tried the pros, but tbh i would expect them to fit better in my ears because of the silicone tip and even if they have that dumb inorganically-shaped hard plastic shell, at least they're smaller so they have a better chance of fitting okay in my ears. for context, earpods massively hurt my ears and have pressure spots, airpods would too except they keep falling out of my ears whenever I, y'know, use my face. like every iem manufacturer stopped using pure hard plastic shells like 15 years ago for a reason - sealing sound (both from inside and out of your ears) and because comfort and the fact that ears are one of the most variable parts of the human body from person to person.
Haha, glad to see one of these on an old Shuffle. Was my first iPod, first ever Apple product actually. Parents got it for me for Christmas. Loved the danged thing, especially because that lanyard made the headphones and the iPod easier to hide, while in class.
i like the way you say "shu-ffle" i laugh every time. its like trying to say souffle. been binge watching your videos for the past week. really enjoy them videos! Please keep them up!
"Did you notice that we were in the new warehouse" Well, I noticed that there were a lot more than a single pkcell visible in shot, if that counts for anything.
As someone who was a patron for 2 months, it's worth it. You can even send him a message and he will get back to you. Took a few weeks but in fairness that's because he gets so many. He even told me specifically "no hard feelings about leaving, come and go as you like"
I had one of the clip shuffles and the “your favorite music in a different order every time” is BS (at least for that model” because any time I flicked the switch to shuffle the music it played the same shuffle order every time. Unrelated but it also went through the washing machine and dryer and still worked for years later. RIP my legendary shuffle
In the early 2000's I had a Creative 128MB MP3 player, which featured voice recording, FM radio, blue backlit crisp tiny LCD screen, runs on 1 AAA battery, sport band, keychain loop, and you could remove it from the battery to use it as a flash drive. I used the shiiit out of that thing. Recording lectures, studying for tests with my own recorded notes, using it for school files, papers, etc, listen to the radio on the way home. I literally used it for years and still have it somewhere.
Blast from the past with the caset aux. My first car only used casets took me awhile to find one of those aux cables still being sold at a dollar store. Got me through the year I had that beauty
Oh man, I really miss the free single of the week. Found some really great music through that. Also, I didn't really like music until I was in junior high, so my first music player was a 32GB iPod touch. I remember the crazy street cred I got after jailbreaking it to get a homescreen wallpaper on iOS 3. Good times.
I never had an iPod shuffle but I miss the time when they were around. I really liked that shuffle that was a rectangle about the size of a silver dollar the one right before they made them touchscreen.
I remember my dad giving me his old one after he got a new iPod when I was a kid. he had one of those silcone orange sleeve cases on it. Good memories.
I got one of these when they came out! I think I was in first or second grade? They had that loop you could use to wear it around your neck or that sport band on your arm! 1gb flash drive basically! So classic 🤘🏼 I think I still have mine!
Bringing back memories man. I used a 1 gig in high school. I used the shuffle mode most of the time but if you memorized how you loaded the songs into it you could find a certain song by counting the clicks. That nugget died 1 year later just beyond warranty coverage. Then I "upgraded" to the sandisk sansa 512mb due to the abilty to change batteries and to have a screen with a menu. I recently bought a Ipod classic gen 6 80 gig because of your channel and how easy they are to use for playing music compared to my phone.
I had one of these when I was 8. It was so dinky but I loved it. I covered it in stickers. I still have it but I think it shorted when I took it out of the computer one time oh how I wish I could fix it somehow. After that I got the teeny tiny shuffle clip in blue. It was so neat having an mp3 that ridiculously small.
Bro the first one I “had” was a pink iPod without touchscreen but the wheel. The GAMES were essentially solitaire, ball bounce, and maze. It had the balance sensor inside. I also had the first iPod touch with the old app icons.
My friend had that kind of ipod shuffle on the bus when I had my CD player and she let me borrow hers for a week even when I was at home. It loved it so much I asked for one for Christmas. By then though, the newer one that was a completely different shape was the only one in stores and even though it was smaller, I thought the way hers looked and fit in your hand was cooler. I was grateful for mine, mind you, but I wanted the cool stick one. Lol Also the Don't steal music made me laugh. My friend's music was all from limewire. I never used limewire -- I just put my cds onto my ipod (and took the free music), but it's funny given the year.
Hey, my first flash drive was a 32MB one as well. I was the first kid in the class to have a flash drive in 3rd grade when everyone else still had floppy disks. My dad got it as a promotional gift from the company known as "Haitch-Pea", since he worked there.
I had an iPod Shuffle as a kid. Only lasted me about a year and could only hold 2GB of music. I'm glad that most players I get now can hold 128GB+ when using a microSD
