@chainq LOL fun to see people refer to CDs as "ancient history". My dear sibling in Christ. My first experience with data storage was a separate cassette tape plugged into a computer. And even THAT was "newfangled stuff" at the time.

@rozeboosje *cough* 😉 https://mastodon.social/@chainq/116229043781690522 But anyway, this SCSI CD writer I was using was made in June 1999. That means it's closing up on 27 years old. In comparison, in 1999 the first Commodore PETs with their cassette tapes were only 22 years old... (But yeah, I know what you mean. I admit, I exaggerated a bit in the original post for dramatic effect. It is social media after all...)
