- po43292, on 10/12/2007, -8/+140Why is everything so awesome today?
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -15/+123Wow, he used iPodWizard and edited the Do Not Disconnect icon with an image that says "***** THE RIAA"...
Pure genius. Must have taken him days to make this "mod".
I have this on my iPod: http://photos.extracaffeine.com/iPod001.jpg
But you don't see me submitting it on digg. - adozeneggsmcgee, on 10/12/2007, -6/+108Yes I do
- ciram, on 10/12/2007, -7/+91Awesome comment! I'm digging everyone up because it made me feel awesome too!
- macdaddy23, on 10/12/2007, -15/+90iPod not Ipod
- patsfan456, on 10/12/2007, -45/+108I don't care who you are, that's funny stuff right there.
- ProximaC, on 10/12/2007, -5/+59awww. he's cold and wearing ear muffs...
- BZKyle, on 10/12/2007, -9/+53Where is this update available?
- phantom_mullet, on 10/12/2007, -10/+48@zippo
Bwahahaha!...from your choice of image I can see why you wouldn't want to submit that to digg... - zip22, on 10/12/2007, -3/+31http://www.engadget.com/2004/12/08/how-to-hacking-the-ipod-firmware-changing-the-graphics/

- Applemacmad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20Must be a Thursday, I could never get the hang of Thursdays...
- Mafia_Ace, on 10/12/2007, -5/+24Yes, this is entertaining for about 5 seconds.
But it is not an awesome ipod mod.
An awesome ipod mod would have to be something cool along the lines of a completely custom shell, built in speakers, touch screen, wireless integration etc... something along the lines of impressive.
This is why I rarely use digg anymore. The articles simply are no longer news. Pictures from flickr are not articles! Furthermore, every single title is always misleading- implying something very unique or interesting, where in reality nearly all of the stories on the front page are both not news articles, and in general are relatively boring or unexciting.
What ever happened to the digg.com of recent, interesting articles? A great site has been diminished by its users to a glorified forums in which nifty pictures are posted. - dyonak, on 10/12/2007, -11/+26Is that song by PWA? (Piraters With Attitude)
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16Judging from the "Everyone Ipod from now on...", I'm guessing English isn't the submitter's first language...
... that, or he just sucks at English, which is sadly common. - JudgeMonkey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14@illustrick
None of the photos people submitted were photoshopped. There is a program that allows you to change the graphics in the ipod firmware (in this case the do not disconnect symbol) with whatever you want. - HunterTV, on 10/12/2007, -14/+27"I have this on my iPod: http://photos.extracaffeine.com/iPod001.jpg But you don't see me submitting it on digg."
But... you... just... did...? - nbcivic, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15cause i just took my codine prescription ahhhhh
- NewChar, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13Get the new 'Everyone Ipod' while it's hot.
- adc86, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11Tuesday's Coming, did you bring your coat?
- shortarabguy, on 10/12/2007, -6/+15That could be used for such poetically ironic ends...
Sell the modification for a really low price and use the proceeds to amass a legal team to fight the RIAA. They would make movies of it!
... Which would be pirated. - gharding, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11This probably does it: http://www.ipodwizard.net/
- iBulk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2376543 is a thread by the author
- Daveoh, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10I live in a giant bucket.
- awol21, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Dude, this is an official Apple update. You know what Steve Jobs thinks about DRM. "***** the RIAA" is his radical new stand.
Results! - DoubtfulSalmon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Firefox has a spell chequer?
- Ocelot13, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6obviously you dont know you can change the theme on the iPod, you can change the individual pics, the scroll bar, rating stars, progress bar, etc etc
- Vironex, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Please molest crickets.

Kirby > You.
@HunterTV
I posted a link in a comment. I didn't submit a new story centered around my iPod's Do Not Disconnect icon.
Bah, whatever. - stalefries, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7Quit being such a party pooper and laugh at it.
/Hmm, pooper is not in the Firefox spellchecker? - spookyttws, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5You do understand what that little 'reply' link is for, don't you?
- tw0bit, on 10/12/2007, -6/+9thats ***** gay!
- Dbeneath, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I think what some people are missing is the fact that "Do not disconnect" is relevant to "***** the RIAA." unlike kirby boy up there. isn't that why its clever?
- iam2bz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I dont get it
- BlackCow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yes I guess "Bucket" is a bit crude considering how much it costs. Its more like a DRM "Container", that sounds nicer.
- thelastemperor, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3i still say there is nothing special about this... buried as lame. Any1 with common sense could accomplish this. The only reason ppl are so giddy about it is cuz it says "***** the RIAA", its not even in color. I mean if it said "I Eat Poo" would yall still be like "ooh this is a great mod" no ud be like this is a lame easy to do altercation on the ipod... 'so i digress' ( < copyright boondocks) Wamp, Wamp, this is lame
- Slipknotic, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3"Awesome" is the new "Amazing."
- firelion, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3buried for being really ***** stupid
- chewy5000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Since when did apple sell triPods? Or is he just really in to customizing his photography equipment
- thatgirlismine, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1codeine
- nbcivic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"codeine"
evidence that i was on the prescription. lol. - thtroyer, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3The iPod? If you really hate the way iTunes puts music on there, then do as I do and put Rockbox on it -- you get OGG and FLAC codecs too!
I don't care the way Apple handles DRM all the time either, but the iPod is hardly a 'DRM bucket'. - aristotle0dude, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Anybody got the link to the awesome mod? I think the submitter got the link wrong.
- tw0bit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1does this work with 5.5 generation ipods?
- maddog, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2it is stupid
- THEMACGOD, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2How successful does the iPod have to get for people to learn that it is written as "iPod" and not "Ipod" (sic)?
- JeremyBanks, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2No, iTunes does not convert your music to M4As when it transfers them to the iPod, yes, the iPod plays MP3s.
- sdfghjkl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Guess its time to move on or you can try to change the users. The former is likely easier.
