Ipods were extremely out of my price range as a teen in poverty. MDs were selling at deep discount, and the MP3 players in stores were 8-32 MB. And I wasn’t going to get money for the 32 if 8 was there and nobody around me understood the limitations of only holding 3 songs.
Honestly I forgot that iPods existed back then because the price was nowhere near realistic. It probably would have been preferable to MD though if money didn’t matter.
I had a MD player in 2004. I actually preferred it over MP3 at the time. With a similar priced MP3 player you could only fit a few songs, but with MD you could have several MDs and not have to keep overwriting songs. Both were rewritable if needed though. Both were filled the same way by being connected to a PC.
How do you feel about 2025 so far?
This is interesting to see as someone who hasn’t been able to afford to travel. One of the cool things since learning German that I have noticed is that I can read a lot of Swedish and Dutch. Those languages kind of look like a combination of English and German with alternative spelling to me now.
As someone who used to raise chickens, I know that the eggs can be covered in poop. Does this leave poop on the eggs in the store if they are unwashed?

You just have a strong association of the smell with seeing it. Your brain is constantly hallucinating your reality to match what it’s expectations are.
