The most important 1.44 MB you can imagine.
Nowadays it’s microSD cards.
I mean, microSD makes for much more interesting drama. You can hide it in the lining of a suit, sew it underneath the skin, hide it in a ball point pen, in your pet. MicroSd drama is much more sneaky.
Nah. Nuclear launch sites just retired 8" floppies required for launch verification like maybe 5 years ago.

They are truly iconic.
It’s not the disks it’s what’s ON the disks
Supposedly on the disks. The files were saved, but did the FAT table eat itself was the question. 😂
FAT table eat itself
heh
That is the table upon which you place the file allocation table. It’s tables all the way down, baby!
And they always act as if there’s no way it could have been copied and exist somewhere else.
But my dude… Diskettes had Copy Protection! /s
Yeah! The little plastic slider you moved up and down.
On commerical disks those are fixed on the frame (but can be flexed/cut away of course)
An embarrassing snapshot of spongebob at the Christmas party?
A simple command line in AutoGPT can be enough, as proven with ChaosGPT. But I am more afraid of human stupidity than of AI, it is this that is going to destroy us.
Shredder had a zip disk
Those are the only times when it’s appropriate to insert a 3 1/2 inch floppy.
Shredder and Usagi seem to be holding Zip discs rather than floppy discs. I have no idea what Ripster is holding.
In fact, Lexington seems to be the only one with a floppy disc here
Yeah that was the episode where shredder had some software that could create holographic clones of people. But Bebop and Rocksteady fucked up and caused the machine to make Shredder behave like Michaelangelo.
My first porn was on floppy disk
My first porn was probably NNTP (newsgroups) before I even had the actual WWW. Had to learn how to stitch images together from multiple posts in the early-mid '90s.
4chan… I rolled the fucking dice and lost I guess.
UUE decoding!
Forté Agent was a blessing
I thought the name sounded super familiar, but I had to look it up. My dad was into BBS and CompuServ in the '80s. He eventually got AOL, which is where I got started with NNTP. I really need to get his history on these things. I know that, when I was super young in the early '80s when they divorced, he was often spending a lot of time online. I’d really like to know more about that era as my memories are scattered and fractured.
3.5", 5.25" or the monster 8" is the question…
5.25 inches but the disk was smaller
Let’s not forget the MO Discs from Resident Evil and MGS
