I found an abandoned pants ipod

So, my mom likes to shop at goodwill. She buys random stuff from time to time, and yesterday, she bought some jeans. I was restless and couldn't sleep, so I decided to do some chores and tire myself out. When I was putting the laundry, and those jeans in the wash, I noticed there was something in the jeans pocket. A lighter? A quarter? No.

It was an ipod.

One of those little baby ipods, a Shuffle. Tiny little thing, hilariously shoved in some random pants to be forgotten about and donated. So I took it out, luckily had a cable for it, and plugged it into my Mac.

The ipod has a capacity of 1GB, first of all, legitimately amazingly funny to me.

Then I see the ipod is crammed to absolute capacity, with music all bought from the apple store. Van Halen, Gwen Stefani, Tom Petty, Selena Gomez. Totally random.

So now I just have a little baby ipod. Pocket ipod. Pants ipod. Last synced in 2013.

Has it been in those pockets for nearly a decade?

I'm cracking up. Maybe it's because it's 3am but I can't stop laughing at the pantspod.

I do kinda wonder if the previous owner shoved it in the jeans pocket on purpose to give the next owner a nice free iPod

and now that 8 years have passed iPods are nearly next to useless thanks to music streaming services

Saved music > streaming services
You don't have to depend on the music being available on the service, and there's no need for an active internet connection, nor a subscription.
Needing a bunch of space is, of course, a downside, but my 2400+ MP3 files take up less than 15 GB.

I'll never give up my FLAC files for inferior music streaming. Imagine needing an internet connection AND paying for a streaming service, just to listen to music. :rofl2:Like, get bent.

Fantastic find, I love your PantsPod. :yaysp:

welcome to gbatemp where you get beaten the shit out of for saying the word streaming

Jokes aside, yeah I do agree.
Fitting thousands of music files onto an 16GB SD card you got for 6 quid is better than always having to have an internet connection and paying money for it every month

now let's continue talking about the pantspod i like the silver color

This is amazing! I love those tiny iPod Shuffles. I never owned one but know people that still do. :)

I still have my iPod Nano (3rd Gen) working perfectly. Its capacity is 8GB though! :rofl:

Absolutely amazing find, even more since it looks like it still works :rofl2:
These tiny players are perfect for doing work and walk outside, and not worry about smashing your phone or more expensive devices somewhere, so maybe that one will serve well? :D

Does it still hold a charge?
Also, does this mean whoever gave that to goodwill didn't even bother to wash the pants first? Disgusting.

    @SylverReZ, the reasons i said that you deleting your pronouns page was sad is bc when i made my account i realized there was more info when you put "en" before the "pronouns" part in the url of the website and that meant i didnt see all the info on your page, and also bc i would have added you to my circle
