Remember when thread

Yesterday I had lunch at Sizzler. Malibu Chicken with rice and the salad bar. The cheese toast was phenomenal.

I took an extra lipitor pill this morning.

Are you a time traveler from the 1990s?

Using Zip Drive's at the Business school computer lab downloading music on Napster. Like a kid in the candy store!

HS - riding the bus to Sporting events. I had one of these Sony Outback Walkmans along with a digital tuning with presets Sony Sports Walkman.
Used to go to the used music stores and buy up random rap cassette tapes, I remember stumbling upon Willie Dee. Sill have most of my old cassettes.

Here I was thinking I'm old school because I still use an MP3&4 player. Instead of bluetooth earbuds and a smartphone like my kid uses when we train. You old bastages still have cassette tapes.

 

[skyking]

No tapes, I just could not bear to toss it out.
It is worth 30~50 on Ebay.

 

[highland145]

About 300 that are still playable. The Aiwa dual cassette deck still works, too. I used it to,... um..., protect my and my friends tape investments.

And I still use my sansa clip with wired buds.

 

[highland145]

@DAPUNISHER recently was "gifted" wireless buds but they don't want to stay in when I work out. When I push them back in, the music pauses....

That's what I use. I mean I went through all of that trouble to make playlists a decade ago, imma use them. My Sony walkman died on me, or I'd still be shoving it in my mouthpiece holder.

If youse guys still have any of the old brown Zune MP3 players, apparently they're selling like hotcakes on ebay to the Guardians of the Galaxy Starlord cosplayers.

You have to get the right ones. My son has some sport ones that wrap over your ear. They stay in even when he is throwing spin kicks/backfist/superman punches.

Long story short, my Amazon account got hacked. Hacker bought 2 wireless off brand buds, a battery powered fan and 3K lumen fog lights....and shipped them to me.

yeah, dammit...I forgot to change the "ship to" address.

 

[DAPUNISHER]

Looks like Amazon doesn't carry the ones I bought my son in 2020 anymore -

LETSCOM Bluetooth Headphones IPX7 Waterproof, Wireless Sport Earphones, HiFi Bass Stereo Sweatproof Earbuds w/Mic, Noise Cancelling Headset for Workout, Running, Gym, 8 Hours Play Time

They still work like the day he got them.

Looks like walmart marketplace 3rd party has version of them for dirt cheap still https://www.walmart.com/ip/LETSCOM-...HiFi-Bass-Stereo-Sweatproof-Earbuds/266333475

@BoomerD your ear hair probably keeps you from being able to use them.

Just sayin.

maybe that's it...I HATE ear buds.

IIRC you are the guy that hates chicken too.
Dis you?

 

[highland145]

Judging from your "purchases"....

 

[highland145]

If you wanted a cup holder in your car, that was an after market accessory.

Which explains why I only have 300 working tapes. Poor design. Beer in the holders, tapes stored behind. Spillage happened.

Your brain is full of fuck. The 90s sucked for PC gaming. even in the first part of the 2000s everything went obsolete quickly. You weren't holding on to a platform for a decade like you can now.

in those days things would go obsolete within 6 months. wasn't until core came out where things began to slow down a bit. in 2011 when sandy bridge came out the first core desktop processers were still very usable with or iwthout an overclock. they did quickly age a couple years later later years later but that at that point they were nearly a decade old.
