Coasters for a DnD night!

Why would anyone bother making 1.4 MB diaks

Start a porn collection of high quality pictures. Be sure to zip span them across all disks… all 1 photo

When Windows 95 was still sold on floppy, it came on 25 fucking floppies in the box.

So I say put Windows 38 on them.

Split up something like Puppy or Damn Small Linux across them all.

Build a PC with 15-20 floppy drives and insert and mount them all.

Boot Linux off of all the floppies.

10 floppy drive raid, please. don’t want to lose that critical data

BrazenSigilos ,

Get a few suitcases at Goodwill or something, stick a floppy and some ‘redacted’ papers in a red envelope, leave them in random places around town and observe what happens. Make sure to wear a trench coat and sunglasses when you ‘forget’ them at each drop point.

You could use them as a memory card for ps1 games.

tilefan ,

see how many of them it takes to hold a single 4K image

superkret OP ,

That’s just over 8MP.
You could easily store a 4K Image on a floppy in half-way decent quality, two with visible jpeg artifacts.

tilefan ,

okay so make it bigger

TDK’s revenue has been increasing steadily at least starting from 2010. When was the last time you bought a TDK product?

ayyy ,

You probably have one of their chips or components in your computer, phone, tv, charger brick, etc.

Boof them. Don’t think about it, just boof em.

Melatonin ,

Mount nine of them on a square board so that they’re all focused on a single point for a mild solar furnace.

Use the last one to look at yourself, the proud owner of a mild solar furnace.

Tiltinyall ,

What kind of floppies are you thinking of? the very little metal on those discs aren’t that reflective.

Melatonin ,

I was too far in the future, using CDs. Floppies, wow.

Now I’m going to have to rethink my whole thing.

PolydoreSmith ,

You… don’t know what a floppy disk is, do you?

Melatonin ,

I do, I just don’t pay careful attention to details and just run with what I think things are saying.

My first computer was an Atari 520ST. No hard drive (its OS ran off a chip), and every program ran off a floppy. And your storage was on a floppy.

Yeah, I know floppies. I used to have shoeboxes of them.
