The reason 'Menu' and 'Hold' are in English in the documentation is because they're printed on the device, its not really there as a word for them, its considered the same as the pause sign or next arrows - just an image that needs identifying :)

actually, you can usually get rid of the "very low battery" message by putting the pod in disc mode and then resetting it a few times. i've had to do it quite a few times with mine. (which has a brand new battery in it by the way, i replaced it myself.)

Squilliam: It's big and valuable. I'm the leader of a big fancy band now, and we're supposed to play the BUBBLE BOWL next week. Squidward: (stammering) The ba-ba-ba…The ba-ba-ba…The ba-ba-ba... Squilliam: That's right. I'm living YOUR dreams Squidward. The problem is, I'm busy next week and can't make it. So, I was hoping you and your band could cover for us. Squidward: (still stammering) Ohh, uhh, I…I, uhh… Squilliam: I knew it! You don't even have a band! Well, I'll just let you get back to the service industry now. Squidward: HOLD IT! It just so happens that I don't sell fast food, I do have a band, and we're going to play that Bubble Bowl! How do you like that, Fancyboy?! Squilliam: Good luck, next Tuesday. I hope the audience brings lots of…Ibuprofen. (hangs up phone) Squidward: I've got to drum up a marching band fast! Drum…haha…band humor.

Elbow, heh, more band humor. [ALL CHATTERING] Squidward: People, people, settle down! Ok, now. How many of you have played musical instruments before? Plankton: Do instruments of torture count? Squidward: No. Patrick: Is mayonnaise an instrument? Squidward: No, Patrick, mayonnaise is not an instrument. (Patrick raises his hand again) Horse radish is not an instrument, either. (Patrick lowers his hand) That's fine. No one has experience. Fortunately, I have enough talent for all of you. (laughs) Mr. Krabs: When do we get the free food?

Ya wanna see? {runs to his harmonica and plays the first note. Runs along and plays another note. Runs down and plays three notes at the same time. He gets tired and walks slowly to another note. Has trouble playing it. Falls down and spreads saliva} Narrator: Day four. Squidward: Well, this is our last night together before the show. And I know that none of you improved since we began… (Patrick chews on a trumpet) …but I have a theory. People talk loud when they wanna act smart, right? Plankton: (loudly) CORRECT!! Squidward: So, if we play loud, people might think we're good. Everybody ready? { Everybody gets their instuments ready}And a one, and a two, and a one, two, three, four!

Squidward's face is deformed like a Picasso painting and his baton breaks in half.) Okay, new theory..... Maybe we should play so quietly, no one can hear us. Harold: (Australian accent) Well, maybe we wouldn't sound so bad if some people didn't try to play with big, meaty claws! Mr. Krabs: What did you say, punk?! Harold: (Angrily) BIG, MEATY CLAWS! Mr. Krabs: (Turns his eyes in anger) Well, these claws ain't just for attracting mates. Harold: Bring it on, old man! Bring it on! SpongeBob: No, people. Let's be smart and bring it off. Nancy: Oh ho, so now the talking cheese is going to preach to us. [ALL ARGUING] Squidward: Wait, wait. I know tensions are high. (everyone gets into a fight. Pilar and Larry are yelling at each other. Medley slams a drum on him.) There's a deposit on the equipment, people! (everyone uses their instruments as weapons. Mr. Krabs and Harold charge with clarinets like a joust but they slow down as Mrs. Puff slams them with cymbals.) Settle down, please. (Sandy and Frank are fighting. Sandy destroys Frank's xylophone by chopping it with a drum stick and he runs away. Patrick furiously kicks Sandy, and Sandy glares, turns red and snarls before grabbing a trombone. Patrick screams and runs off as Sandy chases him and the clock sounds at 10 and everyone stops fighting.) Fred: Hey, class is over! (they all walk to the door making up their fight where Squidward slams them open) Squidward: Well, you did it. You took my one chance at happiness and crushed it. Crushed it into little tiny, bite-size pieces. I really had expected better of you people. I guess I'm a loser for that, too. Don't bother showing up tomorrow. I'll just tell them you all died in a marching accident. So, thanks, thanks for nothing. Patrick: You're welcome. SpongeBob: What kind of monsters are we? That poor creature came to us in his hour of need, and we failed him. Squidward's always been there for us when it was convenient for him. Evelyn, when your little Jimmy was trapped in a fire, who rescued him? Evelyn: A firemen. SpongeBob: And Larry, when your heart failed out from all those tanning pills, who revived you? Larry: Some guy in an ambulance. SpongeBob: Right. So, if we can all just pretend that Squidward was a fireman, or a guy in an ambulance, then I'm sure that we can all pull together and discover what it truly means: to be in a marching band. Harold: Yeah, for the fireman! All: Hooray! SpongeBob: Now let's make Squidward proud. A-one, a-two, a-skiddleydiddleydoo. (At Bubble Bowl) Squidward: I knew this was going to happen. They're just going to have to find another band to play. I just hope that… (sees Squilliam) …SQUILLIAM DOESN'T FIND OUT! SQUILLIAM!! AH! What are you doing here? Squilliam: (laughs) I just wanted to watch you blow it. So, where's your band? Squidward: Um, they couldn't come. They…died. Squilliam: Then who's that? Squidward: AH! THAT WOULD BE MY BAND!

(SpongeBob dances while flicking his tongue back and forth) Squidward: That's his…eager face. (Squilliam laughs. They all go into the Bubble Bowl) Squidward: Well, I guess this will be the last time I can show my face in this town. SpongeBob: That's the spirit, Squidward. (bowl raises above a football field) Football Announcer: Ok, football fans. Put your hands together for the Bikini Bottom SuperBand!!!!! (crowd cheers) Patrick: These are some ugly looking fish. SpongeBob: Maybe we're in those toxic waste dumps. Mr. Krabs: I think I'm gonna be sick. Squidward: (Nervously) Ok, everybody. Let's get this over with. One, two, three, four... (Several band members play trumpets for a short time) (Music: "Sweet Victory") (SpongeBob begins singing) [SINGING] The winner takes all, it's the thrill of one more kill. The last one to fall will never sacrifice their will. Don't ever look back on the wind closing in. The only attack were their wings on the wind. Oh, the daydream begins. And it's sweet, sweet, sweet victory, yeah. And it's ours for the taking, it's ours for the fight, in the sweet, sweet, sweet victory, yeah. And the world is ours to follow. Sweet, sweet, sweet victory. (Squilliam is shocked at the band's success and Squidward looks at Squilliam in an evil and smug way causing Squilliam to be scared.

The reason the FireWire cables get dead pods to boot is that they power the board directly instead of charging the battery to power the board like USB

[@pvshka]

Nice

[@nickwallette6201]

I think it's actually a current limit thing. Standard USB is limited to 500mA @ 5V. FireWire was good for 1.5A. The power management IC is going to limit the total current used to stay within that 1/2A on USB, and part of that is being used to charge the battery. The remainder is available to power the device. Any deficit in how much the device needs to run stable from how much is available would have to be supplied by the battery, so if the battery is too low to prop up the iPod under low-current conditions, then it can't safely run. This prevents the iPod from shutting down spontaneously when starting up the drive, etc. (Which happens sometimes when running on a tired old battery because it can't supply enough current anymore without the voltage drooping below the cutoff point.) FireWire gives it one whole amp over USB, so it has a LOT more margin to power the device and charge at the same time. That's why it can always get the device to boot, even with a totally flat battery. EDIT: And yes, modern USB supplies are capable of 1A, or 2A, or more. But the iPod power-management IC doesn't know that. High-current USB supply detection wasn't standardized back then, so it won't ever attempt to consume more than 500mA.

[@surrealsnow4649]

I think I found a way to break wireless earbuds. This is not confirmed in any way but since you can’t hook up an amp to wireless earbuds I think you should try it out. Turn on “hear through” or whatever it is called and put the buds near each other or maybe in their case, you might have to make a loud noise for it to work. The hear though will hear the sound from the other earbud and it will constantly get louder as the other does the same. This might make them loud enough to break the speakers. I’m not sure if this would actually break the earbuds but I do know I have accidentally done this in class for a split second and I got a lot of weird looks. It might not work but I think you should at least try it if you ever want to burn out some wireless earbuds!

[@steelfox1448]

Unfortunately that's not exactly how that works as wireless earbuds have their own amp built into them, they can only go as loud as the circuitry within them allows for. This doesn't mean that it's not possible to blow up wireless earbuds as it's definitely possible for some sets to be over driven, but the much easier way to achieve this something like what you're describing, but with better results is to play a constant frequency (whatever frequency is most stressful for them, through the earbuds which unlike regular music won't allow the speakers coils to cool down between beats and such

I spent many lunch hours watching the Battlestar Galactica miniseries on it. It wasn't exactly a smooth experience because I had an early Video firmware, and not a heck of a lot of experience converting DVDs to MP4 files. It was quite common to have the audio just suddenly drop out during playback, never to come back, and having to restart the video and seek back to where I was to continue watching. After a couple of updates, it started working a LOT better. I also watched the whole Lost Season 1 through the dock to my TV. When the show got into a lull, I would just stare at that tiny portable battery-powered box of magic, in awe of the things it could do. All I really wanted was an MP3 player, but it turned out to be SO much more than that.

We didnt even have a computer until boxing day 2008 but we all got ipods as teens.. jumping from friends house to friends house to source our tunes. Those were the days!

I didn’t knew I will feel bad watching this channel until Wade opened up brand new iPod :( brings me to the memories I had iPhone 4 since 2011. A drop of ketchup fell into the earpiece and blocked the sound completely… I cleaned it but vibro motor stopped to work… I used it for 4 years more until I got SE 1 and decided repair it and give it to my father to use. I replaced the cable for vibro and it worked for 2 more years until vibro and jack stopped to work, father sent it back to me to see what’s there. And crappy chinese replacement got disconnected because it was lacking a foam patch… connected it back, added a foam and it is still working completely fine with default battery. Then I replaced SE with 13 Pro and gave SE to my father as a second phone (but had to replace dead battery). After my brothers motorolla died (there were 3 dead phones since 2011) my father gave my iPhone 4 to my brother and he is using it for a year already. This is nuts. It really grind my gears if I haven’t ruined it with ketchup it would be untouched and in its original form. Made in summer 2010, still working in 2022 this is what I call quality. To be honest I want to take it back sometime to still use myself because it had a lot of memories of mine, it is small, chonky and heavy and just a next level compared to other phones of that time

It was a good time to be around. Admittedly, I preferred using my PSP for media consumption, but iPods were decent for their time. But man, what a shame about this iPod. :c Have you thought about looking into MiniDisc players? I'd be interested to see your take on how they sound, especially the mid-2000 era ones with inbuilt digital amps. I love my MZ-E520, but then I love my Fiio X3 2nd ed too (can't believe it still works so well after 5 years of continuous use though). And then my Creative Zen X-Fi before that (and as mentioned, my PSP before even that).

[@myowlhasantlers]

oh man, I actually still have one of these I use every day in my car. Bought it brand new in December 2005 because I was driving 900 miles round trip across CA for the holidays and the tape deck in my 1992 Toyota Corolla (when I also still have in storage) died. Got one of those weird radio transmitter adapters to make it work. When I got my current daily in 2012 I threw it in that. At one point the screen went black and stopped working but it cleared back up. About 3 years ago I put it in a new case because that slip cover was disintegrating. Sometimes it when the car turns back on it will reset to just a completely random song, but other than that still works like a champ.

It took me a solid few seconds before I realized that the “video” in the title refers to the name of this specific iPod and is not there just so we are informed that this is a video. I was like: “why would you put a word video in the title? It’s like putting “movie” in a movie title.” Than I remembered, that some of the most iconic masterpieces of cinematography did exactly that, for example “The Bee Movie”. I guess my instinct was right on track as this here video truly is a masterpiece.

That's the thing about batteries. They self discharge with time and it doesn't stop when the battery is basically discharged. They undercharge on their own and basically cook themselves on their own. So little PSA here: If you have some old electronics laying around with bats in them, make sure to top them up once every few months, or you gonna permanently destroy the bats in there.

For some reason hearing your voice on all your videos has already registered to me as bringing some sort of nostalgia and calmness that I just couldn't explain. It's odd specially since I live nowhere near Australia or have known any aussies.
