And to think Nana manga still haven’t returned from hiatus after all this time……
I don’t think we’ll ever see that :/
At least the anime ending is much better than Game of Thrones TV ending. :)
2006ish?
Close, 2008.
Aren’t read-write disks fairly unstable from a longevity perspective?
Definitely from what I remember. They were used as some kind of floppy disks with more storage, but they sucked.
Unless you use them only once, probably yes.
The fabled write-only system
I like me stone tablets.
Ok, now listen to this gif
Only write. No read!
Planetes, Gungrave… nice taste :)
Heh, thanks! :)
24 years? the brand of the dvdr is unfamilar but lain is from 98 🤔
Not that old, this was more of a recap archive (CDs to DVDs). Hint: There is Monochrome Factor’s first episode. No idea why I didn’t wait for it to be finished first though.
I uh… Have several of those legit, after watching them other ways
good selection! 🤌
I hope you used a special soft tip pen to label them.
DVDs didn’t have that issue, fortunately.
In CDs, the recorded layer is directly under the label, in DVDs it’s mid-way through the thickness of the disc so there’s a layer of plastic between it and the label. A function of different wavelengths of light used to read them.
Bit rot due to degradation of the organic chemicals in the recording layer is still very much a concern though.
No worries, I had many kind of CD-specific pens back then.
BECAUSE YOU SNIFFED THEM! ADMIT IT!
…we all did it.
Hey, who told you that?
Sic. This made my day.
Also, early 2000’s. :)
Close but late 2000s (2008). :)
I hope I can at least recover some of them.
Lain. I want to see it again to not understand it again.
Good old Lain, I should rewatch that.
Somehow it’s still set in the present day, present time.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
12x re-writable DVDs would be from the mid 00s.
12x! DVDs!!?
My first recorder was a 1X caddy unit.
Get off my lawn.
Young one, my first “recorder” was a 3 1/4 floppy disk drive.
That was my first CD burner. I’ve actually punched cards, programmed on a PDP11 on a tty, loaded programs from a cassette and still have a handful of 8" floppies somewhere, but thank you for the “young one” 😊
I had a binder full of video CD’s because my laptop only had a CD-RW drive. It usually took two disks to hold an entire film.
And then there were four disks Stephen King films.
DVDs? Cant be that old.
Exactly. Like 1997 on, but fuck I was 3 when it came out. But they became popular around 2002 according to some variety article, and surpassed vhs in 2003. Wild the players were $800 when they first came out.
DVD+R or RW was merely a research project in the late 90s - having those on the shelve is more like 2001-2003
2000 was a quarter of a century ago.
Thanks, calculating the years that past since 2000 is always the hardest for me.
You should probably rescue those before they rot. Disk rot is a thing
Let’s see if they held up for ~20 years. Honestly no idea what I’ll find out. Hopefully I can check soon.
