      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?

    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.

    source
    • edgemaster72@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      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.

      source
      • Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        I think it’s a mindset thing. A boombox means you’re thinking about an audience. Consideration is implicit.

        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?

      Yes. At least the person with a boom box brought quality speakers.

      Also, their sick roller skate moves timed to their music are pretty great.

    TBF, the stereo speakers probably sound better and are certainly capable of being much louder than my phone speakers. But yeah, miles better in every other capacity.

    • TheKingBee@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      You can buy a bluetooth speaker that sounds as good (if you don’t need real stereo sound) and still have room in your pocket.

      And a boom box. Sure, phones can play music, but not at the same volume or quality as a dedicated stereo system

      source
      • StarMerchant938@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        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.

        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.

    When I was young, I had a bucket list of all the fun gadgets I wanted - a camera, a video camera, a nice stereo system, a portable stereo system, a car stereo, lots of records, a TV, a VCR, a computer, etc. Making a Christmas list was easy, even if I knew I would never get 99% of it.

    Now I get asked what I want for Christmas, and I have no idea what to say. My phone includes nearly everything I’ve ever wanted, including stuff I never thought of. Give me my phone, my guitar, a sandwich, and a bottle of water, and I’m pretty much set for life.

    source
    • ouRKaoS@lemmy.today ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Cool things to ask for for Christmas:

      • Socks: I wear tall boots & long pants for work, so no one knows about my Deadpool/Pokemon/flying taco socks, but it puts a smile on my face. My sister got me a pair of socks with a sad sock sitting on the stairs that say “worst gift ever.” I cried laughing.

      • Hobby accessories: You have your guitar, straps, strings, and picks are all perishable items that it’s good to have a backup for.

      • Shared experiences: ask for a group trip, a local excursion, or a board game to play together.

      • My favorite - the themed surprise: instead of asking for a specific thing ask for “Something to make me laugh” or “Something nostalgic” or “Something I’ll use daily” or “Your favorite recipe and the ingredients to make it”. This makes shopping for / creating the gift as much fun as receiving it, since everyone will interpret the instructions a little differently and the possibilities are endless. This one’s fun for a themed gift exchange for a secret Santa as well.

        Good suggestions. They actually like to get me little guitar stuff, or music books, I just have to steer it to them, so I put it all into an Amazon list. This year, I’m going to direct them to Stillwater, and give Amazon less business.

    The single CD amongst all that analog media seems so much like an anachronism that I had to look it up. The CD standard was published in 1980 and it was commercially available in the US in 1983 but it took until 1992 for CD sales to surpass cassette tape sales.
