My barely consumed blank cd tower somewhere in my basement agrees.

A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

It was only a few years ago, when I ran off some Dreamcast games.
I had to do it last year so my school would let me listen to music during tests. Had to be on a burned cd so they could review it for cheating. I'm just lucky I still put a disc-drive in my pc builds.
It was Armin Van Buuren's Intense. Burned it for a road trip.
Oh I knew. It was the last CD in the spindle and I had no plans of buying any more.
Naw, not yet. I still burn a few a year. Amazing how entertaining it can be in a older car.
Why is this written in the past tense?
My last ISO was hirens boot CD. Shit like me test and whatnot
Happened around 2010. Trust me I remember.
Last week isn't really that long ago. Going through my mom's old things and found a PC she bought new back in 2013. A Dell Optiplex 790 with a dvdrw in it.
I just happened to have a couple of blanks so I verified that it worked before pulling it out and using it as an external drive. Works that way as well on my much newer Ryzen 5800x build in a case with no 5.25" bays. (Or externally accessed 3.5s for that matter. No external bays of any sort other than some USB ports on the front.)
My 2006 Honda also has a 6 disc changer and it sounds better than the Bluetooth adapter I connected to it. (It is wired to the back of the factory sound system, but Bluetooth audio just sounds flat to me, even on the best speakers)

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

You can go burn a CD and know that it would be the last time. Not only is it not yet dead, it is still pretty widely used.
