That's sad but true, man. Miss you "Car Rock VI".

June 13th, 2022. 7:13pm. If that's the last one I burn, I will at least know when. It was Windows XP Media Center 2005, for my fleamarket Dell Demension E510. Well, more accurately, an E310 with a E510 motherboard.

There are plenty of people who never did that at all.

Jokes on you, I've never burned a CD

Jokes on you, I still burn my acquired digital media to BluRay discs

Disk rot is like 25 years while an SSD still doesn't have that kind of shelf life

Who are these mad men who are dumping stuff to SSDs and then sitting them on a shelf? Can't get my mind around it.

I still rip blurays, so reading them is go

Every now and then I have a reason to archive something at work, its probably like once a year tho

I just burned one today, it was the easiest way to transfer a game to a Windows 95 notebook. 🫠

Why didn't you just zip drive it?

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

Don't have a ZIP drive, only a 1.44meg floppy drive.

I still occasionally burn CDs, whenever I need new music in the car that doesn't require my phone. Last time was last year.

I literally have to do this for work so unless I lose this job it's gonna be another decade

Obsolete tech needs to be preserved.

Unless I die tomorrow, you're wrong.

I'm not dead yet and have a Blu-ray burner and some blanks.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

I doubt it. Although, I imagine I may have recorded over my last tape.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

I do the opposite now. I buy discs cheap from bin stores, rip them onto my desktop and then upload to my home library for more affordable 'streaming'.

I still have a big stack of blank CDs and DVDs. I burned a DVD late last year. I don't think I've hit my last time yet. But maybe.
