Pretty reliable IMHO, but if one of your drives was bad than all the disks you used in it went bad. Still more reliable than ZIP or cheap CDRs.
>>52071637
Don't know if the word laminator applies to it in English. The official term is Mimeograph, its an old copying device that basically impregnated the entire room with a strong smell after use.
>>52071717
so this memeograph was like a printing press then?
>>52071752
Yea a mimeograph is like a printing press. It was widely used at schools in the 90s of my area.

>>52071979
Probably never, since unlike Vinyl there's really zero pros to using floppy disks for anything. Even being a retro collector I only bust them out for ultra-old hardware, driver installs or niche shit like Windows NT ERDs, otherwise I attach my shit to the network or zip/cartridge hard disks for file transfers.
They're too slow and shitty, nobody liked them even when they were in vogue.

>>52074056
Vinyl has some added bonuses over optical and digital formats, mostly in larger, frameable album art, extras like inserts, they're also nicer to store than jewel cases.
Floppy disks never really had any of that shit, they're shit to store, fragile as fuck, and have dick capacity by pretty much any standard.
>>52071358
this. 3.5in floppies were terrible in just about every sense.
8 disks to install windows 3.1. each disk would take 10mins to load. even by the standards back then it was painfully slow and awful. writing one took even longer and half the time it wouldnt write correctly.
>>52074469

Oh anon, you need to be more creative.
You'll get hipsters encoding to 92kbps MP3's to fit them on the disks, claiming they're more "Retro" as they sound like the music you'd get on limewire.
They'll be playing them on PCI audio cards and music with metadata showing it was actually from the 90's-2000's, shared on p2p sites, an "Original", will be highly sought after.
Trolls will take any old mp3, downscale them to 20kbps, jump them back up to 92kbps, change the meta and make hipsters look like fucking idiots.

>>52075874
Nah, I doubt it. Turntables are easy to find new or used, they're easy to fix, they last a long time, and records are good for more than two plays before the magnetic material starts flaking off. Not to mention there's a nostalgia factor in the mainstream; everyone had a turntable as a kid, everyone listened to records, they're a fixture in pop culture, and they make for nice display pieces.
Floppy disks didn't have that, they weren't made for media, computers that used them as a primary means of data transfer were expensive as fuck and rare in the home, most normalfags don't have a sense of nostalgia for copying spreadsheets to a disk, pretty much all post-nehalem systems don't have floppy controllers, and add-in controller cards are expensive as fuck.
CDs on the other hand will probably have that hipster nostalgia factor long after their expiration date has come and gone for the same reasons as vinyl, except it will be "90s kids" driving it. I'm not looking forward to that.

Floppies was not reliable.
The protector thing could easily slide aside in your bag and you have lost everything.
I lost files several times on floppies.
And half the floppies I stored securely for a year and then tried to access it was destroyed.
It was flaky as hell.
Compared to flash drives, hard disks, tape, SSD and optical, this was the worst way to transfer information
>>52078018
It was the best there was at the time though. And any drive could read or write. CDs improved storage capacity but hardly any computers could write to them, and only once. Only flash drives completely replaced floppies.
Past technology is shit, no duh
>>52074884
is there anything you can do with these anymore? i mean anything worthwhile.
>>52077936
But you are wrong.
My grandmother have only learned to a single application and she switched to ubuntu-mate when windows got too slow for her laptop.
Obviously she had me install it, but she quickly learned how to use the laptop on the new system.
This is not even the average user.
She uses the computer once a month to do this one thing and she can figure out how to do it.
There are certain DE's which are a lot more consistent than windows and people have to adjust to new things with windows all the time.
Windows 8 was a lot less user friendly than mate, kde, gnome, cinnamon and xfce.
I know people on /g/ likes to tinker with things and likes to program their way out of every situation, but it doesn't have to be this way. For the average user, linux is easier, more consistent and runs on hardware windows gave up on.

I've never seen the machine itself in person. We had tons of dittos in classes when I was a kid, but I have no clue where they actually made them.
Weirdly, I do remember a whole room full of Xerox machines that never got used.

Sort of, but the way they worked was weird. The teacher would write or type on special paper that had a sort of pressure-activated adhesive for dye on it, and then put that paper on the roller, and when it was rolled against another sheet it'd transfer some of the adhesive to it, and then roll it against a dye roller that would color the letters or images.

Linux makes up less than 1% of the overall market share. You're actually literally a retarded man child.
Just because someone sticks a fork into a power outlet and his brother copies doesn't mean everyone in the world is going to do it.

My ex-gf had a sewing machine with a computerized embroidery table that worked by holding the material in a frame and moving it around under the needle, and it sounded exactly like one of these printers, or an old scanner, when it was working.

I think he was saying that Vinyl is popular because it doesn't have magnetic material that starts flaking off, unlike floppy discs.

How the fuck have I not heard of these until now?
Can you backup and restore full partitions on one of these?
How good is it at archiving data vs a hard drive?
Can you write multiple times on these or is it one write per usage, like a CD?

It's kind of like with music cassettes: there are some hipsters giving them a go, but the reality is classic vinyl allows for full-size cover art and whatnot. This makes them much more appealing than smaller media.

Literally providing no sources, just making a blatantly untrue claim.
A few years old, but still helps:
gizmodo.com/5517041/googles-insane-number-of-servers-visualized
Google right there, accounts for 1-2% of all the servers in the world. They all run linux. Akami, rackspace and ovh all run linux. Yahoo Facebook and amazon don't publish their numbers, but they all run linux. Not windows.
Windows is pretty much dead outside of the small business.

No it came out June 2015

>Start going to this "school" for Network Administration
>Excited as fuck to be working on those big blinky light boxes on racks
>Think ITT Teck is hot shit for an IT degree, suckered in by the commercials
>They're teaching Windows Server 2003
>It's 2009
>They fire our dean for disagreeing with their business practices, like failing students who don't do the assigned work and placing more grading weight on open-book finals
>They introduce a Nursing Certification program
I feel ashamed to put ITT as an education source. And I'm stuck with their outrageous tuition bill and their credits are non-transferable.

At least I didn't go for a "gaming degree"

Should have gone to American Public/Military University. Accredited not just nationally, but also regionally and by program.

Are you kidding? Look at the size of both. They can both hold a whole lot of lectricity. You can just pass that shit back and forth between them, and virtually never need to recharge either, ever again.

Also, pic related. Having to put a CD in a machine to play games was retarded.

Full backups would take like five business days.
