I don’t know when it was specifically, but I know it was to make a music CD for my old car that could play MP3s off of CDs. 15 years ago, maybe?
It probably contained Linux
If I had to guess? Ubuntu Studio 14.04
For the last several years of me burning discs, they were all Ubuntu live dvds. I believe the last one was Ubuntu 18.04.
Yup. I tossed out a whole sleeve of them things a couple years ago. New burn every time. Then I saved them … because … um … nothing.
I did or i atleast believe that then was the last time, you never know.
I might just go and burn one more when I get home, just for the heck of it ;)
I was thinking the same but I realized I am not sure I have a computer with a CD drive or a mother board that supports my old IDE drive
I have though, just need to install a rom burning SW again :D
Nero burning ROM :)
That wouls be suitable for nostalgia’s sake, but I’ll probably go for xfburn or whatever that name was ;)
Sabine was talking about possible petabyte discs being on the horizon. Those might be worth burning some day in the future.

I never knew that “road mix 17” was going to be the final release
I still have a BD-RE drive in my current setup. It almost never sees any use, but it’s definitely nice to have the option should I ever require it.
Same. I plan to burn some backup blu rays to free up space in the next year or so
Will there be a time where we will write to a USB stick for the last time?
Until you find a reason to do it again. I burned a cd like last year because my car has a cd player.
I’ve written to a CD last year.
Hah I knew it exactly. 2019 when my university required to hand in all (raw) data used for creating my thesis on a CD or DVD. I had to buy a new one of these things where you get like 50 disks stacked on a stick (to use 3 of them) and had to borrow my mom’s old laptop, because it was the only one available with a dvd drive. I knew it then and I’ve been right since then: This was the last time.
I think for me it was before I moved counties and my disc was full so I put all my torrents on a couple DVDs. Early 2009.
yeah, but i’m planning on that day being the future. gotta save all my music offline 💖
lol I didn’t
I don’t think that’s true. I have a 20+ year old iBook G3 that I keep around to tinker with Mac OS 7-9. The usb slots either don’t work, or at least don’t support newer usb drives, so it’s only a matter of time before I hop over to the Macintosh Garden and start burning discs again.
