The fact that you got a nugget with Scarlet Fire already loaded. King shit.
You know they did that on purpose before it was sent on that one.... Its too perfect... No such thing as a coincidence.
@@joshsemo4214 yeah and?
@@joshsemo4214 yes...that was clearly part of the joke. I too watched the video.
Also the folder that it's in was called "Music that won't land me in jail"
@@Thesnakerox That too. Also king shit. Incredible. Amazin', even.
Hey! It's Amanda- Sorry about the lack of fun music! We have a very strict data wiping policy so we could only send things that we confirmed were wiped. Hope you enjoy the nuggets and thank you, on behalf of all of us at Free Geek Twin Cities, for shouting us out and for the generous donation!!
Never be sorry for making a DankPods video possible. Legends 💯❤️
You killed the eee pee cee 😢
twin cities in minnesota?
It could be a tradition now, adding Dankpods' microphone recordings or Scarlet Fire on every nugget after the data wipe lol
@@randolf7584 I checked, Free Geek Twin Cities is from Minnesota.
Putting Scarlet Fire on exactly ONE nugget in the lot is fucking top tier.
agreed.
No cussin it’s bad

*DankPods finding scarletfire already loaded up was priceless* *Jackson!!* 😂
Yep lol😂

“Please remove demons before operating” is what I’ll have written on my tombstone
How would you "operate" a grave?
@@blakksheep736 wouldnt you like to know

Be a good arse tattoo as well

That USB A to USB A is actually dangerous. Like it could fry the USB port and in your case it somehow killed all mouse function (if it was it's fault).
this type of cable can actually be dangerous when trying to connect two pcs together, especially when both are on unisolated power. connecting a nugget to a laptop with this should be fine.
I was about to comment that. It technically isn't even a "USB cable" since a cable with the same connector on both sides is not compliant with the USB standards. It's okay for USB-C because it finally allows for power going in both directions and the devices negotiating voltages between each other so that neither one gets fried.
They weren't kidding when they said there were demons in it
It might just have fried the eeepc's usb controller lmao
I suspect the touchpad is over internal USB and the male to male did at least crash it. A powercycle could have released it, not sure if dank tried that.
I was a volunteer liquidator at Computer Reset in Dallas TX, a huge warehouse full of vintage computers. Part of the cleanup was assisted by the wonderful people at Free Geek, and I can't tell y'all how wonderful those people are! I even still have the free shirt they handed out to all of us one day, so happy to have had a chance to work with these guys and gals!
I am one of the people who got to go there! I found a massive nugget of a laptop from 1986 just sitting in a pile, going there was a lot of fun.
Ahh Computer Reset as seen on 8bitGuy!
10:15 the e is running away. its the curse of the Eee PC.
mate, do you mean "the EeePeeCee"?
"Just because it's junk today you don't know what's it gonna be in the future"
Wise words to live by. Is that why you collect nugget cars?
I think he has like a pile of 80s Mercedeses in various states of broken too
@@servissop151 He was rather excited by some old Benz's in the junkyard video, so you're probably right
@@sampuhhupmas5666 He showed a long time ago that he has like 3 or 4 benzes, but hasn't made any content on them since then so maybe he sold them
Ohhh yeah, the ol' mate benz, i forgot about him
@@servissop151 they are pretty hefty to repair, the engines usually are the most expensive ones since you need someone to make custom parts for it, it's an antique V8 after all.
I laughed so hard when it was revealed that one of the nuggets was preloaded with Scarlet Fire.
Was priceless, absolutely priceless, well played Jackson
JACKSOOOOOON
Same, I died
5:43 there is something poetic about wade saying "you betcha" in a video all about nuggets from Minnesota made my day
That Cassette-MP3 thing blew my mind, you should do a whole video on the tech and history of that weird nugget
that feels more like a Technology Connections video than a DankPods one ngl. Would love to see TC cover the digital/analogue crossover thing though.
@@camjkerman and I think TC did just that recently
I feel sorry for him man, losing the epece and the diablo so close together. F to pay respects

he could've just used tab
honestly i think the trackpad just didnt work cuz he had gloves on

I'd double check the Eee PC. There could be a possible chance of it still working. Sometimes when something takes too much power from a port on a mainboard, it will render a lot of things unusable. I had some external hard drive mounts that would sap a lot of power from my ports on my desktop, and all my peripherals would just quit working.
Also I would try the touchpad without gloves
could it be that he left the mouse lock function on? some laptops have funtionalities like that, hence the existence of the Fn key.
Yes I would not let die the EeePC, I bet is probably easy to fix
@@likesflower true but that would only stop the touchpad, not the actual mouse
I noticed the taskbar went missing as well; might have just been Windows Being Windows and locking up for no reason
I used to donate all my old electronics to Free Geek in Vancouver, Canada. They permanently closed in November of 2022 here and I was sad to see them go. It was a very nice non-profit and seeing this video was amazing
I was literally about to look up if there was one in Vancouver 😅😭
6:50 why is it genuinely a good mic for a (probably) old nugget????
Shoutout to Free Geek out here in Portland, Oregon! I used to volunteer there and learned to build my own PC from them. Great guys. Super happy to see you partnered with your local location.
If by Local you mean on a different Continent then you'd be right. There are no Free Geeks outside of North America, and our boi Wade here is in Australia
The location by 11th in SE is great but also terrible because of that area.
This one is from the twin cities (Minneapolis and St. Paul) MN . . .they have partnered with a few youtubers before
local location 😝
Internet local! 😅
Rest in peace EPC you have brought a lot of nuggs to life 😔
Turns out they were not joking when they said it was haunted.
should have listened to the warning
EEE PC NOOOOOOO
Next time better remove them demons before operating
Eee PC
Im convinced Dank is an SCP. He is an unlimited warehouse of random mp3 players and technology and it is displayed via constant video fees on his TH-cam channel. He is an enigma.
Inbox me
0:49 nice shout out to Aging Wheels
Your American Counterpoint
Hey there, my name is Will and I work on iPods at Free Geek! Your videos inspired me to work more on iPods and learn how to fix them and now I’ve made multiple custom iPods that have sold at Free Geek. Thank you for this amazing shoutout and for your very generous donation ❤
too bad you can't have fun nowadays. :)
Thanks for being a part of history haha. Greetings from Belgium.
😍
Do you guys sell them online?
@@Blindtechnician hey there, unfortunately we do not ship any items on our online store 😔
That’s great to hear. Keep at it man!
I love how you slowly crumpled the paper in absolute fear 1:48
Free geek is amazing. Many a seasons of scrapyard wars would not have been possible without this. Scrapyard wars by LTT may be my favorite series on TH-cam.
as soon as I saw that cassette mp3 i instantly got so excited. i am now extremely hyped for when he eventually makes a video all about cassettes and how janky but fun they are
I love how when he opens the laptop it’s playing aging wheels. One of the best car channels on TH-cam along side Garbage time because both are just regular people working on cars. With a great personality that makes you stay.
There so needs to be a colab now
@@Anime_tiddies Yeah, Robert would probably love that old Daihatsu - that thing is right up his alley.
Please no, aging wheels is a huge shill and garbage time is legit mates in the garage having a gay ol time
I've found that my subscriptions all tend to watch each other. I wouldn't be at all surprised if it turned out he also watched Technology Connections, Regular Car Reviews, bigclive etc.
@@ccoder4953 Hubnut would also be a good Collab as he owns two Daihatsu's of various repair.
how considerate of them to include not only music that won't land you in jail but the anthem of exploding earbuds
9:51
That reaction is priceless! 😂😂😂
I'm born and raised in Vancouver. I miss Free Geek I used to do volunteer work down there quite regularly. I bought alot of my peripherals second hand from them. It was quite sad but not very surprising when they shutdown. Also: Not totally related but a company I worked for when I worked abatement was located right next to the Linus Media Group building out in Surrey.
I burst out laughing at 9:52, that was unexpected, fair play haha
Had me dying of laughter too 🤣
That short moment of silence when he realizes
Jacksooooooon!!🤣
ANG ON A MINUTE!
The most Australian i have ever heard him speak
Free Geek seem like a good bunch. Refurbishing old electronics and reducing e-waste is really commendable.
And Nugget Dips are always a delight to witness. Thanks for the video mate!
I live near the Twin Cities one, they're proper sick. Super cheap parts, laptops well under market rate, and they hook up students with desktop+monitor+keyboard+mouse for very very cheap. Plus they took my old server for free, which will probably be sold to some teenage who wants to host some stuff. Super cool org and great to work with.
Good folks out there.
There's nowhere else I'd go to have my electronics recycled than Free Geek Toronto.
@@nomms I wish I could volunteer, honestly, fidling with tech is neat and their goal is important to me. But I'm in a completely different country, wish we had an organization like them.
It gets even better you can volunteer and after 24 hours of volunteering you get to choose a free computer! They also teach computer repair on site. It's crazy what they are doing.
@@nomms I’ve been meaning to volunteer there.
The aging wheels on yt on that mac made me smile, love his channel. Always love seeing channels I watch on yters I watch and just interloop.
9:29 sounds like skipping NPC dialogue.
It's always good day when the pod man uploads
I love this comment
this comment is very generic but I AGREE! 👍
But the eee PC :(
Yes, Thursday is my favourite day because if it
Thursdays have always been my fav day because of it. And Fridays now for the garbage time uploads sometimes
9:47 this killed me, I can't 😂😂😂😂
That Aging Wheels shout out did not go unnoticed. Great channel!
That's SO GOOD that they put Scarlet Fire on the one nugget. Cool to see some Twin Cities representation too!
Ayy I volunteer in the audio department at Free Geek! This is so cool.
Can confirm that Jackson is an awesome guy btw.
I have a working one of those zen mosaics, sometimes they need to be manually reset by pressing a small button on the side with a ballpoint pen or something. Loved that nugget, used all through high school.
Let’s go, it’s my favorite Australian guy who yells at mp3 players. This is why I look forward to every Thursday
anybody with a mission to save old electronics gets an instant seal of approval from me and the fact these people seem friendly as well is an added bonus
I always donate my old electronics to my local Free Geek. Love those guys and their mission.
8:03 a second bag has struck the desk
6:03 I did not expect to see a Korean equipment that looks like someone dug it out from a landfill in your video lol
Almost looked like it was from North Korea lol
The coby glorified USB stick nuggs were honestly fantastic. Took a single AAA and you could even get one with a screen. Did the job in middle school
I still have mine! Gotta find an AAA! for it, but I thinknit still works, even.
yes
Aging wheels. Awesome absolutely would love to drive around in a nugget like the citicar blasting tunes out of a tiny speaker and a first gen diskman.
I like how Dank says “why not?” as if the nugget said “No” XD
I can't get enough of these videos! Be it about headphones (favorite segments), nuggets (second favorite), or just anything music related (tied with first)! So glad youtube randomly suggested your channel a few weeks ago.
10:51 i love the youtube sticker on that camera like you can tell it has aged very well
Knowing that Dankpods watched Aging Wheels' review of the electric cheese wedge made my day.
5:24 me when i see adele
makes sense
Couldn’t ask for a better birthday present than a Nugget Luck Dip! Love ya Wade, cheers from the US!
I love Freegeek. They're just across town from where I'm living now, and my college does a lot of work with them. I genuinely am glad that they exist and do so much for the community, and it's also really cool that they reached out to you. Thank you for both sharing this video and the laughs (and sobs, rip EEPC) and also helping spread their message and goal, and just awareness of them in general. Love from the Twin Cities~!
RIP Eepeecee, you were never really all that good. May you rest easy in Manky heaven.
Hey dankpods, I’ve noticed a lot of growth this year and I’d love to congratulate you, keep it up! ❤
If there is a nugget museum, they dont have anything on your dirty nug collection. Cheers to your work mate. All around stellar.
ive been waiting for this for AWHILE, this man is a nugget god
Genuinely thought the zen was being blurred for some reason
The zen MP3 player was a flash to the past, I remember having one as a kid and that nugget was a beast, it survived every drop and the battery lasted for what felt like forever.
If you ever release an album, it's got to be titled "music_that_won't_land_me_in_jail" Underscores and all.
I legit had thoughts about a modern flash-based cassette player recently, like if Spotify wanted to do some weird gimmick release along the lines of their Car Thing, they could release the Tape Thing that lets you load playlists from Spotify to the cassette. Can't wait to see a full video about that Duo Digisette.
Hearing you lose it when scarlet fire was on the nugget was so funny. Awesome video like always :)
I had a Dell DJ when I was kid, and I loved it 😂 it was my first nugget!
Those Philips GoGear MP3 players are damn near indestructible. I have a slightly different model and have been using it for 21 years now. It has literally been through hell and high water. The battery held a good charge up until it started ballooning in 2019 and after removing it the device still works great plugged into my car's USB port. The sheer resilience of those nuggets would give a Nokia 3310 a run for it's money.
I had a black iriver h10 and I loved it! Seeing that took me WAY back !!! Loved it
That Star Tac hit me in the feels. A guy I knew had one but it was way out of my budget back then. I think SanDisk is a good entry level nugget to start your MP3 life.
My Dad had one - it was his second-ever cell phone after ditching the "bag" phone he bought in 1994-ish. The Star Tac was a durable little thing - his STILL holds a charge and works fine all these years later, even if it can't pick up modern cell signals.
The Sandisk Sansa support RockBox and have pretty good audio output. Quality can surely compete with iPods. But they are small and the displays obviously.
The Eee PC might not be dead. Try rebooting it without the Jukebox and see if you can get the mouse working. You might also need to use the power plug after all, so it doesn't pull too much load through the USB port. That can cause wonk on some older laptops.
Exactly my thought, the whole time I was like “Wade! Why aren’t you just gonna reboot it?!”
Pretty standard too for touchpads to connect to the mainboard using internal USB. So if one of the ports trips the OCP, likely all of them would go.
@@Big_Red1 Given they're probably all on a single bus, yeah, I'd think so.
RIP eepeecee. Time of death: december 2022. You will be missed
The *device* James gave you looks like old Soviet tech you'd find in the damn Chernobyl exclusion zone
Man, that Creative Mosaic was my second ever nugget. Still have it kicking around. Good times.
I had one of those, I think I've got it's little speaker Dock too
That cassette thingie at the end has no business looking this cool, I need to see it in action
I volunteered at my local FreeGeek a few summers back, it was awesome there. I'd love to go back someday :)
I had that Creative Zen Mosaic back in the day. It was pretty good, I left it in my pocket and it got washed but it still worked. 10/10
Hahaha imagining someone on the Free Geek data sanitation team putting scarlet fire on that nugget. They know what they're doing!
also yeah, FG always wipes the data on everything. Don't ask me how I know that
I made my first visit to Free Geek Twin Cities after a disappointing trip to Free Geek Chicago. I have to go back now.
Wow that Dell brings back memories. A good friend of mine growing up had one - I'd never seen another one before or since, but we spent many hours enjoying music off that thing.
This was fun, it's nice when the nuggets are fairly interesting, and boy was that dell in nice condition.
Thank God, you put the nugget music on I thought for sure you were going to forget it’s my favorite part of the lucky nugget dip when I hear that music keep up the good work my man💪
2:02 pre dinosaur
i always loved that specific creative zen nuggo for its janky design choices when i was in my early teens, thanks for the major throwback mate
Holy moly a Zen mosaic! That brings back some memories, that nugget lasted me from grade 5 clear through high school.
That was an awesome vid. Thanks Amanda and Jackson
Dude, that old Zen mp3 player just gave me serious highschool flashbacks. I loved that little nugget.
Didn't expect to see freegeek on dankpods! I volunteered at the Vancouver location for a while, and I'm glad to see they're still kicking around!
Aging wheels is a dankpods fan and now I see dankpods also watches aging wheels
The best thing to ever happen in this world
Dank this is my birthday today and marks the 3rd year of me watching your channel I've watched these videos through thick and thin I just wanted to say thank you for these fantastic videos
3 videos across 3 channels all on the same day. Love ya work love ya videos.
Love the videos man your energy is so contagious
Still running my Sandy Clip Jam into the ground Its a wonderful experience listening to my old mp3s I got off TH-cam.
So wild seeing a local connection appear on your channel. Been enjoying your content for a long time now and this video was a great reward after digging out from our most recent snowstorm. Cheers from chilly Minnesooota!
Living so close to free geek twin cities is awesome. When I was younger I volunteered there once
6:42 It's a true story, does that mean they are all true?
1:51 Wade begins trying to recall whether he has any exorcists on speed dial.
That h120 is actually frickin sick btw... It's got optical in and out! You can just chuck a mini toslink adapter in the line sockets. Practically hifi.
Not the slow crumpling of the cursed paper. Peak content. Made my day
Yay I love junk! RIP the E-PC, it served you well, even though you always hated it.
totally didn't expect to see my city get mentioned when watching dankpods today but then I saw the free geek Twin cities logo, from the cold north to the down under those nuggets made a journey.
Omg for the first time ever I've seen a nugget that I actually owned. The third one in you called the design a headache lol I loved mine! Just happy to see it
The Clip Jams honestly go hard, they're really freaking good, the newer ones even have BT!
Somebody needs to compile every time DP yells out in joy when something works.
Yo, it's Free Geek! I'm from the Twin Cities and I've volunteered there myself a few times. Great fun building old computers! Really awesome place.
Props to Jackson the legend putting scarlet fire on the nug
