It was the exact watch I’ve been wanting to. Cannot believe how lucky I get with finding tech sometimes.

I also have a story of finding everything I need - not tech, but an assortment of clothes and household textiles, when broke and new in town. I went out, happened to be the old textile collection day, and the street was full of bags. The first bag I opened had the exact pieces I wanted.

I envy you for the sony speaker - got to use one a few months ago and was surprised that I do care about the musical details once I can hear them.

    That’s super cool! Dumpster diving is really fun, it’s a shame it’s illegal in many places. That’s some fate there, you getting exactly what you wanted too!

    It’s quite fun :) baby loved dancing with it. I haven’t used non-wired earbuds in so long I was also surprised by the quality of Sony earbuds.

    It fell out of the back of a truck

    Idk if you’re implying I stole it, someone stole it, or just a joke? lol

    I think it was a wealthier Chinese resident who tossed it as they maybe had the newer versions and didn’t want to deal with handling it otherwise. A Japanese person would never throw something like this away.

    Just a joke, I'm sure you didn't steal it. Your post was just worded in a way similar to how someone would talk about something they bought off the back of some shady dude's truck, and I thought it was funny.
