Reply to A BIFL Christmas: Osprey Daylite Sling by slimredcobb
Been eyeing one of these for a while, but never did pull the trigger. Wife surprised me with one today.
Looking forward to using it, mostly, for Disney park days, at the horse track, and such.

I still have a 5th gen classic which lives connected to my truck. Somewhere around here is a nano, haven't used it in years but I bet it still works.

I had a nano shuffle, loved it. Light weight enough to clip it to my shirt collar and run, I also used it while riding my motorcycle a lot as well because I could pause/skip with gloves on without looking.

I’d be wary of zynex. They told me insurance covered it when it doesn’t. (That’s on me I should have checked myself). And have now continued to run insurance claims for the last 2 years bc they don’t think they got enough from the first claim.
So I’d only go with them if you know for sure insurance will cover it or you pay out of pocket.

That’s literally the point of the device. Just being super small, and it plays music that’s what it was meant to do

I bought an iMac in 2009 then handed it down to my dad when it no longer worked for me. He still uses it today to check his email and do some light web surfing. I’m still using one of their laptops from 2014. Th products definitely last.

The only good apple product. One you didn't buy yourself.

Those are worth a fortune second hand. Agreed, only worthwhile item from apple.
I once received an apple shuffle nano, it only had an on and off button. With the wires to the inears you.could control volume, that was it. Useless device.

They are comfortable, but also a removable insole, so I use Sole brand inserts bc I have 1 collapsed arch. The trick I found to ensure there is no metal in the shoe is to bring a decent magnet with you shoe shopping. If you have any old speakers layering around, just dismantle one and salvage the magnet.
Good luck, and Happy Holidays.

Which ever kind you'll wear. Just like sewing your own clothes, knitting your own garments means you have much more control of what type of wool you use for each project.

Are they still being sold? Can’t seem to be able to find them.

This reminds me of all of the versions of the "band" or "song" names that were downloaded via Limewire.
I'd have to sort through 14 "Brand New", "BRanD New", Brand Neu" band names to find that one song I wanted.

On the all weather front, when o bought mine, I did some type of scotchguard treatment on them but never have since so you might ask about that.
I have friends that have had their Docs so long they had the soles redone but the upper is still good to go. One guy is on the spectrum and bounds when he walks so had uneven wear.
There are very few things I consider BIFL and Docs are #1 or #2 on that list. The other contender is the 1970s Tupperware colander my mother had that I still use regularly.

Yea, the guy proudly posted 13 year old boots. I’m thinking he’s not going to want a flat black, undifferentiated surface, like every other pair of boots out there. I’m thinking he likes what he’s got and wants to enhance it.
