Green/orange LCD screens, needle speed dials, just perfection.
Old ass kindle. Physical buttons, no modem to phone home / update itself / delete my shit, only thing it can do is display books
I have the original Kindle fire. You can have it for free. It even has a micro HDMI port.
Why thank you, I’ll take it off your hands.
DM me and pay the shipping. I will send it usps priority.
My wired headphones.
I hate the wires dangling around my ears and neck. So annoying lol
I hate constantly needing to charge headphones and dealing with bluetooth connection issues. Way more annoying lol
That's why I use both, interchangeably! Worst of both worlds!
My 90s bike.
Most of the components have certainly evolved when you look at a modern counterpart.
But it's still fully repairable, serviceable at home or on the trail, extremely reliable, and doesn't require any firmware updates or batteries to use 😄
- Cantilever rim brakes.
- Square tapered bottom bracket.
- Cup and cone hub bearings.
- External cables.
- Friction shifters (may latest "upgrade"!)
- Steel frame.
So much about it is “outdated”, but I love the hell out of it.
EDIT: Photo of my metal steed in "winter mode". LOL
I'm still rocking a Zune and a flip phone.
It's called a Zune. It's what everybody's listening to on Earth nowadays. It's got three hundred songs on it.

My thinkpad x220. One of the best laptops ever made
My modded new 3DS LL
I will never get rid of my modded N3DSXL (with clit-joystick replaced with a PSP joystick!), my modded PSP, or my modded Vita.
I should play New Leaf. I’ve never played it before and I hear it’s the best one.
My girlfriend is just getting into videogames, she started playing New Leaf recently and always send me videos of the stuff she unlocks, I only played the DS one, but gotta say, New Leaf sure looks fun.
Awesome, I’ll for sure check it out! Just have to remember how to download games to my and my partner’s DSes hahaha
I’ve played the GameCube one and the Switch one, but everyone I’ve talked to said the Switch one is a downgrade from New Leaf!
It's better for making a pretty island or a nicely-decorated house. And the vault pole is a real benefit early on, before you can build bridges. Otherwise, NL really is the better game.
I still use two SL1210 turntables from Technics. They are from 1991 and still doing a great Job. My father-in-law bought them for his Nightclub he owned back in the days.
iPod classic. The fact that a 2009 device with a mini hard drive still works after dropping the thing like 100 times shows the absolutely ridiculously over engineered build quality on those things.
Same here, but my battery started to go out and puff up so I replaced it for a bigger one, put 1tb of ssd storage, a USB-C charger, and bluetooth. Now I don't have to preload music from my +200gb library and I have room for a couple of movies :D
How do you replace the internal storage with ssd storage? Is it easy? I was going to look into some more modern niche music players. I just really don't want to use my phone. I love having the separate device.
Super easy, I went on to Elite Obsolete Electronics and got the Tarkan SSD storage adapter, then I got a mini SSD on Amazon. You can connect this directly to the existing ribbon cable that came with the iPod.
Cool thanks! I ended up buying a hiby r1. It was pretty cheap and allows up to 2tb of flash memory. It's a little janky but seems to work well overall. It also appears to support higher bit depths/sample rates than the ipod does. I already had all my files properly tagged so everything showed up correctly sorted. I was even able to get my playlists from foobar transferred over without issue.
