I'm so old that my Ph.D. dissertation research is still stored on 512 kB, 5 & 1/4" floppy disks. Well part of it is on 9-track tapes.  (And so lame that I never got around to transferring it to media readable by modern computers.)

Transfer it and post it here o/

 

I'm still an idiot so I must be pretty young o:

1.4mb is plenty if all you're using it for is microsoft docs and things like that. One was enough for me back then.

They're also sufficient for MIDI

Always had to make back-ups of the back-ups. They tell you to test your backups. With 2-dozen floppies in the backup set, who the f*ck had time for that?

 

The original Mac would get stuck in this cycle where it kept asking for whatever floppy in the set wasn't in the drive. After a dozen iterations or so, you'd have scrounge in your desk for that paper clip you'd straightened out and poke it in the reset hole. So nasty.

 

On-topic: I'm young enough that I've never heard The Lone Ranger on the radio.

I'm older than I was yesterday.

I keep forgetting my age. Probably because I don't like the number .-.

[Yan Q]

I legit have to stop and think about how old I am. Every time. I can barely remember my birthday so...
but I do know which zodiac I am, so I usually just count down using that.

[Supreme_Lurker_Primo]

I stop caring about my age to the point I forget my birthday, I mean I don't even celebrated that day plus it comes once every 4 year.
