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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

I still burn them sometimes for the car.

The car you downloaded? Because YOU would totally download a car?

I loved DVD-RAM. I could just mount them in Linux and copy backups on it. They are even reusable, like you could just delete a super old backup and put a new one on it. I think I stopped using them, because of capacity.

I still store offsite backups on CD and DVD disks

I still have a lightscribe drive in my main PC. No lightscribe discs though.

I didn't know it was the last time, and I don't know when exactly it was, but I do know what it was that I burnt:

A Linux install CD

I did know. It was 2 years ago when me and my neighbour pranked our neighborhood grandma by burning shitty music and leaving the CD in the mail.

I don't burn CDs, I buy music on pre-owned CDs (Best Of albums, etc.) and rip them to my computer. Cheaper than some of the online music stores where you download the music files.

You should checkout the public library.
