Dullsters
Inspired by the Dull Men’s Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This isn't an advice forum
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I've got an iPod Classic 160Gb, from 2007 I think. Still runs fine, synchs and everything. I hate everything Apple about it - the weird 12-pin connection, having to use iTunes, the fact that it's been discontinued - but otherwise it's grand. I got it a wee Bluetooth dongle that fits into the headphone jack so I can listen on my hearing aids.
I'm almost scared to use it, because it would be hard to replace. I'm often out of phone signal range, and it's good to have all my music, audio books, podcasts etc still available. What else can do this? The Cloud is useless without a phone signal.
Look into rockbox. Custom firmware for the iPod.
Thanks, I'll look at that.
On YouTube people have also modded them with large flash/microSD cards and USBC for convenience :)
Do early ipods not show up as mass storage devices at all?
All files are stored separately so even if you do load media manually without iTunes, they won't show up or have any metadata or art. Source - have the iPod Touch 1st, 2nd and 7th gen
This one doesn't.
