After a lot of overthinking (my specialty...), I settled on this setup for the #oldcomputerchallenge ... My regular laptop (a 2014 macbook air running essentially arch Linux) slowed down to one core and 512mb ram with the #NsCDE desktop for the retro feel, and music out of either a #discman or an #iPod 4th gen 😎

Having this on my desk just adds a bit of happiness to my workday :ablobcatheadphonesfast: #ipodclassic #retro #iPod
Is Jennifer Lopez's "on the 6" album worth a listen at the close of 2022?
Should you smash this album onto your iPod?

I'm going to dub this the #CDChallenge. Whereby you thrift and/or collect #CDs until you have recreated your collection from 2010.
Each CD can be added to an #mp3Player,
But the catch is that you MUST listen to each track from a CD on your mp3 player before you can add another CD to your mp3 player.
If you have iTunes, it keeps track of your play count. You know, to keep you honest ;)

And of course they would all go on my #ipod video so I could jam out in the car
To ensure my #iPod video is period accurate, perhaps I will only add music that I rip from #CDs. Compact discs are abundant at thrift shops. I could rip them to my PC and have a whole collection of physical media and a killer itunes library.
Maybe even have a period accurate version of iTunes
In an American eBay auction, a user had the idea of increasing the value of his iPod. He built a small electric guitar into the iPod, which he previously processed with the Flex and other tools. This is how a crude instrument was created -> the iBend. The iBend is now owned by a German collector.

The #iPod Touch is gone, and I feel bad for any parent planning to give a child an iPhone without a cellular plan to use as a Wi-Fi device. #Apple really ruined that plan by sticking a persistent warning in the Settings app to finish setting up cellular. So much for using an iPhone SE or iPhone mini as a glorified iPod touch replacement.
"I feel like being productive!" I said to myself an hour ago. "Let's get a recent music sampler on my #iPod , I can go offline, I won't be distracted by ads or anything." This did not go well.

#Apple discontinues the #iPod Touch.
I know several very large companies that do have to migrate many thousands of handheld devices to iPhones (without SIM?) I guess. Their original business decision against #Android was not a clever move IMHO. But I haven't been part of that decision process.
