I’ve lived both, am fully addicted to my phone, and genuinely believe we were better off then.
That lucky guy gets to own his things!
including the handses
Is think this is the most pedantic comment section I’ve seen so far
Hmm
WTF, dude, get out of my pocket!
I am pretty sure I cannot fit a whole dude in my pocket.
This is much more wholesome than what I was thinking.
That’s what you think. This is the fly on his boxer shorts.
It’s replaced by an AI chatbot now
Grindr exists, you know.
I know it’s called Grindr, but that’s not the kind of grinding it refers to.
Not trying hard enough
I try to fit a whole person in my pants every day. They only fit about half the guy, tho. 😔
Pockets have come a long way
was at a flea market, there was a machete, i jockingly called it a pocket knife, because it fits in a pocket,
put it in my pocket, it fit.
felt bad for my daughter’s who will likely never get proper pockets.
who do I need to hack with my pocket knife for them to get normal pockets?
Buy ‘em pants from the boys’ section
Wait… My phone can play cassettes and cd’s? Freaking awesome!
I wish, but for some reason most Android phones lack the correct drivers to play CD audio
mine doesn’t even have a fucking disc tray
At least mine has a cassette deck and jack plugs.
Eurorack tape module? I want to know what it can do… off googlin’
Error instruments loopman 1. It can record and playback, at different speeds. You can use existing tapes with music, but also modified tapes with for example 8 sec loop. YouTube video and This video
Yes… after you rip them into a
mixtapeplaylist.
How big are your pockets?
You cannot fit three sets of headphones in your pocket without them fucking up your phone or your wallet.
You absolutely positively 100% cannot fit a VHS player inside your pocket.
And a boom box. Sure, phones can play music, but not at the same volume or quality as a dedicated stereo system (quality meaning the frequency response, phones just physically can’t get the low end without a separate speaker)
You could probably find a pocket sized bluetooth speaker today that outperforms that particular boombox. I’ve got one about the size of a hardback novel that puts out more volume and bass than my car does.
Which speaker is that? I’ve been sort of on the lookout for a good compact speaker for a while
I’m not exactly sure since I got it for $5 at a thrift store. It says AOMAIS on the front and has a built in carry handle so that might help you track it down.
I thought so too but remembered yesterday I was working at an office they were putting back together after remodeling, and noticed they were playing music off an iPhone and it was surprisingly loud.
That’s a good thing. You don’t remember guys walking down the street, or getting on the subway, carrying a boom box on their shoulder, loudly blasting distorted music you don’t care to hear.
Now they just pump it directly into their ears. Let them destroy their own hearing, not everyone else’s. They make Bluetooth speakers if you need to broadcast your music to a group.
Ha, no, now they just get in the subways with big Bluetooth speakers and annoy people with that. Boom boxes phasing out didn’t stop people from being obnoxious if they want to
VHS tapes got so small they turned into little bits
I wish that were true, but I’ve got a stack of home movies that say differently.
My double standard is that when I see someone with a boombox playing music in public, I’m chill and open to it. When someone does the same thing on their phone, I must work to enhance my calm.
Is it the sound quality? Maybe in part. But there’s more to it.
Maybe it’s that a boombox playing music is more social and open, whereas what someone does with their phone is typically meant to be private, but some people play their music or w/e noise out loud from it as if only they can hear their phone and you’re just supposed to pretend they aren’t overstepping boundaries.
I think it’s a mindset thing. A boombox means you’re thinking about an audience. Consideration is implicit.
I hate when people have boomboxes too
It’s always on public transit. Like that’s how some people prepare to go out and face the world, by making everyone else listen to their music. Like that’s the best way you can come up with to express yourself?
I dont have a human being inside my pocket.
Hello, I’m the human in your pocket.
You can make video phone calls with people.
You are my tiny dancer.
nah, the speakers from that boombox are not in my pocket.
Even ignoring the joke with the dude fitting into your pocket, I cannot fit full over-ear cans I to my pocket… This is just lies.
IEM’s my rizza. Also Koss Porta Pros.
