This, but I used a CD-RW as my scratch disk. Was it good? No. Did it matter with dialup? Not really.

Older, I used to rip CDs onto tapes using a cassette deck
I'm this old.
Older actually. My first portable music format was 8track
No, because my country was pretty much too small and poor to have brand-name sharpies, we just had felt pens with other names. Carioca I believe was the most prominent brand back then.
This is a direct attack. Defederate this motherfucker!
I remember lightscribe and thinking it was going to replace my need for sharpies but it was just a gimmick and while cool not very useful given the cost of disks
How did the Sharpie get dragged into this? I still need to use one of those for work.
Anyway, i fit the description. Win.com, Soundblaster IRQ, Audiogalaxy, BBS, etc. It seemed like it was more fun back then. Marketing ruined everything. 🤷♂️
I didn't think I was old until this post... I'm like the youngest millennial you could be.
Wow, lime... Those times
Barely but yeah
bruh 💀 my grandpa had me burning CDs for him forever
People that age will see this and say "hell yeah"
I made one the other day, though I bought the music from HDTracks instead of "acquiring" it from Limewire or Kazaa. Burned it to a CD because the bus I drive has a CD player but no SD card slot or anything.
Hell, my daughter used limewire.
If you aren't this old I don't think you can be called old yet
I'm so old I remember when disks were floppy, came in the 7" size, and were an awesome replacement for punch cards.
Still haven't beat Zork tho...
