Because old computers often had at least one floppy drive, sometimes two. You didn't really have a disk drive, you might to boot the os, but most of the time to run a program you would be running it directly from floppy, and then to save data you would save it to your other floppy disk drive.

living rent free in your head KEK

>>107705314
I don't get it, how is it rent free what OP literally implies that with their bait?
It's like putting a big sign of a cock right outside your window and then saying that cock lives rent free in your head, even though you're constantly reminded about it when looking out (not even your fault).

The average zoomie has probably never seen a full size SD card
>>
>>107705470
whats this gen X delusion that zoomers were born yesterday, of course we know what SD cards are you dip

>>107705523
>of course we know what SD cards are you dip
You say that...
But it wasn't the adults in here asking why there's wireless power but not wireless data transfer...
Whilst most likely posting it via phone on the f'kin wifi....
What you do and don't know isn't really for us to decide: for example, SD cards were a thing a long time before they stopped putting drives in machines, If you know SD you *should* know floppy...
and experience has dictated there not be a great deal of credit granted to the ilk that comes up with ideas like "Water is heavier than wind so we should put wind turbines under water" and "Folders make no sense, filing systems should run on tags"....
Or the sort to post a floppy icon - not even the 5¼ actual floppies, the 3½ stiff floppies - questioning it's relevance in a technological forum...

>>107705280
There is no cloud.
Only somone else's computer.
Save your data on my computer, nothing bad will happen later. Honest.

>>107705523
you weren't born yesterday, you're just retarded. that's what makes it so funny.

>>107705262
google it then

>>107705906
gee I wonder what generation was responsible for that?
>>
>>107705924
you
you are responsible for that
stop with the tic tac toc and the wipitiz
>>
>>107705262
Maybe computers used to not have hard drives so all saving was done to diskette? Then by the time file sync was a thing the floppy was already established, hence picrel.
>>
>>107705262
Zoomies know what disks are because they watch youtube, and youtube is full of old people explaining all the things.
If anything, they might overvalue floppy disks because "cool past stuff", like you would with a 1950 mixer or something.

>>107705262
Am I retarded or are the normal and hot icons identical?

What did they mean by this?
>>
>>107705987
while this kind of generational bullying is cheap and childish I must agree with the Xer here.
It's something I see very often, with zoomers especially, this constant blame of other generations for their own failures, but never themselves.
>>
>>107705262
YOU FUCKING BABY ZOOM TRASH PIECE OF SHIT THAT'S A 3.5 INCH FLOPPY DRIVE FROM BACK IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS LEARN YOUR FUCKING HISTORY AND GROW SOME FUCKING RESPECT YOU BROCCOLI HAIRED TRASH YOU GOT ME SO FUCKING HEATED RIGHT NOW
>>
>>107705262
Even in the day it made little sense.
Might as well mean "load" rather than "save".
>>
>>107706109
My guess is you're supposed to alternate between "normal" and "hot" to get a pulsing effect while writing to disk.
