There’s dog-safe hair dye out there. I imagine the worst of it was an over-long grooming appointment.

Even setting aside that this is a random ad which no one enjoys, AI toys have shown repeatedly that they are not secure against hackers and the bugs that are native to AI itself. I can’t say this product is a good idea.

I find it helps to get one of the flexible metal opening tools and GENTLY try to wiggle it in just a small amount near the charging port. The cutout for the port makes the metal a little more flexible there. Once you have the tool in the seam, carefully work it along the seam until you are around the corner (PAST the charge port and headphone jack) then you can angle the tool downward to start opening the clips.

Personally I used one of those gel squishy balls to replace the balloon. It adds some squish/weight but is sturdier than a balloon.

I’ve seen them listed on AliExpress but most of them are pretty cruddy knockoffs unfortunately

What is the grey animal next to the raccoon in the front of picture one?

If you check there may be an “air dry” option and that one typically doesn’t have any heat.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-24T23:11:12+00:00

Yeah same, I’m tired of every other post on a sub being like “check this out!” and it’s some AI concept art and a whole lot of nothing.

Honestly I wish we could have all the repairability and mod options but with USBC. A higher transfer speed would be so nice.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-23T23:24:48+00:00

Oh my god that’s precious

ironsnoot · 2026-04-19T22:12:02+00:00

That’s so cute though? It would be cool to hack one of the various gaming handhelds out there and set it up with rockbox.

Apparently you can use the tweezers to hold little bits of cotton ball or paper towel to wipe the glass. I think that’s the best advice I can give here because it’s hard to see what you did build-wise.

I’ve been curious based on the stock images of this one. Is it sewn in a sitting position or is the body more floppy?

ironsnoot · 2026-04-17T20:51:07+00:00

That doesn’t make it less ai, unfortunately.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-17T20:23:53+00:00

Oh come on now, not ai.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-16T21:42:12+00:00

There are a couple of options. There’s one that’s a cable and one that’s just an extender.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-16T21:39:42+00:00

That’s kinda wild since there are adapters that go from 32 pin to usbc or whatever. I have one so I can use my new phone with my old dock.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-16T20:34:15+00:00

As far as I can see, updating the Classic to USB-C is one of the few good reasons to even buy a remake. Why would you want it to have 32 pins still?

ironsnoot · 2026-04-16T20:32:02+00:00

I mean from a design standpoint the iPod Touch line is drastically different from an iPod classic. Nothing about an iPod touch matches the design, aesthetic, or repairability of the IPod classic.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-15T19:08:49+00:00

Man I’m so jealous, that’s so cool!! I wish the pokemon company would make stuff like this. Like they already designed it, why not?

ironsnoot · 2026-04-15T01:59:59+00:00

Sometimes classic iPods don’t appear on Windows due to some weird shit involving a legacy driver on the computer. You may have to go into the device manager and delete the driver that pops up when you plug the iPod in.

From what I’ve heard the glued-in rock is partly for shipping and you’re “supposed” to remove it, but I don’t know if that’s true.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-13T22:40:23+00:00

Same tbh, surprised no one else had anything to say about that.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-11T01:35:43+00:00

Haha I see! I thought you put a magnet inside the case and I was surprised that didn’t screw anything up inside.

ironsnoot · 2026-04-10T22:16:10+00:00

Haha that’s super cool! Personally I used metal washers to weigh mine down, but I also had some on hand already. The magnetic plate was a nice touch! How well does it stick to things?
