I burnt about 100 disks last year as an offsite, nuclear resistant backup... though, if nuclear war broke out, that would be the least of my worries

I still store offsite backups on CD and DVD disks

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

It was a CD rw and didn't actually work. The data wasn't there.

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

Unless I die tomorrow, you're wrong.

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.

Occasionally break out the burner, it’s just very rare. Plus these days it’s a portable little usb drive.

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

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 burned a cd 2 weeks ago.

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.

Burning one today just because of this post.

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

I burn Blu-rays once in a while. They work for backup.

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

I still burn CDs. This whole streaming thing won't last. Also, my back hurts...

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

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

If we include DVDs I probably put a Linux distro iso on one in 2010 or 2011. CDs? Maybe a CD I made for a road trip on 2009 or 2010.

Last time I saw this template it was "Someday your parent will carry you in their arm for the last time and neither of you will know it was the last time."
