It was a happier time, I miss my atomic purple floppies.

I rewrote that several times because I have the mind of a child, but atomic purple 3.5” was even worse so I give up and you get to enjoy both.

I miss 8" floppies, where you could double their capacity with a pair of scissors.

I still have some somewhere. One even says "DOOM" on it, of course.
