Back in my day we just called this "running"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

"Streaking", anyone?

Back in my day we had to run uphills both way, naked, in the snow!

Inexperienced here, but after a certain age, the flopping and bouncing around becomes problematic.

For all sexes.

Retronym.

A new name for something that has changed because of technology. Acoustic guitars and prop planes are examples. Silent movie, black and white movie, antenna televison, etc, etc.

That's just how we did it before mp3 players

I remember portable cassette players and some mad people running with those.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Or those expensive CD players with supposedly anti "scratch/jump" features.

If manufacturers specifically marketed those for running, then they're at fault, yeah. Otherwise, if you take the basic idea of how it works, you'd know it probably won't cut it for running. Anti-skip works by basically reading ahead (faster than playback) and caching a few seconds of playback (in a place that's not the disc so it's not affected by vibrations) so that when a sudden shock happens every once in a while, playback will continue from the cache and the normal disc reading will have time to catch up; if however every step you do while running is potentially a shock big enough to disrupt the reading of the disc, the caching just won't have time to catch up.

P.S. Sorry if that sounded a bit rant-y.

yeah i'm not running with a belt on and a walkman would not be great for keeping my pants up.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 20 hours ago

I do this all the time. I mean unless you consider the phone in my pocket not doing anything and the casio gshock square on my wrist tech

They say it's not what you know, it's how soon you know it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 21 hours ago

And how many groups of joggers you run up to join before you know it.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I mean obviously it means those things. Where would you keep them while naked?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 hours ago

Up youtlr ass n obviously. But I like listening to a lot of power metal when I run so I just end up cumming when I step outside.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 21 hours ago

I always keep music in my ass. Not technology, just the music.

That's where I keep my binoculars!

They do a naked run every semester at Berkeley the week before finals. Its called dead week, where there's no classes, and its a time for students to cram for their exams, or, you know, run naked around campus.

Where do people keep their keys?

They still wear shoes, right?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago

We never understood why one of the local convenience stores advertised this little arm bands that had a pouch built in roughly the size of a wallet. Then we learned the local uni had a big naked run enthusiast community and they regularly invited us you guys from the military base every year they did it.

Mostly people went barefoot but some had on slip ons. Vast majority of people had those arm bands though with an mp3 player or their phone shoved into the pouch, some girls wore sports bras, and some others had what I can only describe as a phanny pack across their middle. My group all wore the arm bands and camelbaks. Good times, would probably kill me to try that again.
