what makes you think you might be wrong on this, in particular?

c4rn1f3x.bsky.social•89 days ago

"A tiny Phil Collins was actually trapped in my speaker backpack in the early 90s and now I'm forever cursed" explains a lot of things.

As someone who has been working on cold fusion while doing nothing else for the last decade, let me list the reasons why you are wrong in this 456 post thread...

cconrady.bsky.social•89 days ago

So earbuds then…

humanfood.bsky.social•88 days ago

Jon I've been following you for awhile now and I gotta say with all due respect some of your posts are totally f-ing (fucking) stupid. A complete waste of time. Keep em comin.

zoyx.bsky.social•89 days ago

Nanites. They work union scale. Kinda sucks when they go on strike.

does this count as tech minute number 2

loganpage.bsky.social•89 days ago

No, I don’t think you’re wrong on this one.

zeeteeart.bsky.social•89 days ago

it's true, there was a documentary about the ones in the jukebox in Shining Time Station, even

jtillman.bsky.social•89 days ago

like the Borrowers!

prath.bsky.social•89 days ago

They’ll ridicule you but it’s because you’re getting too close to the truth

walsonbot.bsky.social•89 days ago

I disagree. If you are wrong, Mssrs. Bose, Bang, and Olufsen owe us all a vast apology.

yubuq.bsky.social•89 days ago

if you're right is it on you? are you gonna do something about them?

akumahokoru.bsky.social•89 days ago

I would not explore this avenue of thought. I got a asswhupping for an experiment like this as a child.

itsdavidcalkins.bsky.social•89 days ago

You’re describing juke boxes.

tamanon.bsky.social•89 days ago

The world is a magical place if you only believe.

wbishopfbi.bsky.social•89 days ago

I believed this wholeheartedly when I was 7!

And when you're not home, The Speaker People moonlight as the world's greatest [INSERT ANY MUSICAL ARTIST HERE] tribute act.

collintmiller.bsky.social•89 days ago

I'm less wowed their range of talent, though it is quite stellar, and more by how loudly the manage to play the tiny instruments.

milesbrasher.bsky.social•89 days ago

If that's true they're also brilliant at duets

gfeltner.bsky.social•89 days ago

I see no evidence is this thread to the contrary.

modality.bsky.social•89 days ago

you're not wrong

beegod.bsky.social•89 days ago

They're also so very shy... leave a little treat by there to say thank you tiny musicians!

blishbarson.bsky.social•89 days ago

I am an engineer and this is essentially true.

aria.computer•87 days ago

Unfortunately, most of those talented musicians died in captivity.

blusiara.bsky.social•89 days ago

My parents have those speakers, only a bit larger, and as a kid I imagined whole tiny concerts taking place there

tamathatsme.bsky.social•89 days ago

TOP SECRET DIAGRAM DO NOT SHARE.

drbetsy94.bsky.social•89 days ago

I know I saw a cartoon like this once, but I can't find it. 😔

838carlisle.bsky.social•89 days ago

it's true, you have to occasionally pour water inside to keep them in good health but otherwise they are very low maintenance

danspawn85.bsky.social•88 days ago

bad-code.bsky.social•89 days ago

I don’t think you’re wrong. My uncle was one of them

ughnaught.bsky.social•89 days ago

The Borrowers was a documentary and nothing anyone can say about it will change my mind

balsohard.bsky.social•89 days ago

Sing 1 and 2 confirm this.

komaniecki.bsky.social•89 days ago

As a music PhD, you are laughably wrong. It's actually just one very tiny guy with a pretty extensive synth setup

floydnine.bsky.social•89 days ago

Nope. They're just empty. Its really very dissapointing. Unless they are invisible. Now, thats pretty plausible.

theurb.bsky.social•88 days ago

I have not idea what Jon is talking about but since he is typically correct in these well researched topics, why limit your range?

stefanoschiavone.bsky.social•89 days ago

I knew I wasn’t the only one

peeingian.bsky.social•89 days ago

I believe that all those talented tiny musicians have even tinier speakers living inside them

bigape.bsky.social•89 days ago

I detonated mine with lethal amounts of voltage
