Im just wondering what was the last dvd or cd you burned and what was it for? So you all still use dvds or cds? or have you found a alternative media?

I bought an external DVD burner and a small pack of DVDs in 2023. Pretty sure I was burning gparted or some other recovery type LiveCD. It was some sort of Hail Mary on a retro project, or something.

But yeah, optical media bad.

    I mean death to the streaming companies, but yeah I don't really miss optical media at all. My truck in high school you'd literally open up the door and CDs would be spilling out all over the damn pavement. They talk about distracted driving with the screens in modern day cars, but let's actually talk about you flipping through pages and pages in those darn pouch books trying to find the CD you were after, back in the day. Now that was OG distracted driving.
