Witches VS Patriarchy

Not only we burned CDs, we also RIPPED them

"No, that's my pc's retractable drink holder."

Nero Burning Rom~~e~~

kids today will never know the hassle of burning a cd of mp3s and then recording the cd onto a cassette tape to play in the car. in real time. and if you bump the desk or otherwise jostle the cd player, you'll get a nice skip on your tape

We used fucking LASERS

nobody tell them about how we recorded songs from the radio and made mix tapes

I remember burning some warez on a CD-R, getting a clean burn after 20min, and grabing a ballpoint pen to write the name of the warez on the disk.....

Sad times....

Also texting existed but was like 10c per text and would easily rack up huge phone bill charges. We used IM programs on the computer instead. No one relied on their cell phones to actually communicate outside of an emergency because they sucked and were expensive.

I recently found perfectly working HP external disc burner while dumpster diving electronics bin at work and I have uncovered ancient ways of witchcraft again that I have once known but forgotten. This stuff costs like 50€ in stores now and I found it again for free. Nice. Burned the CDRW disc I still had in drawer for test if it works fine and the process hit me with so much nostalgia lol

Charge it, point it, zoom it, press it

Snap it, work it, quick - erase it

Write it, cut it, paste it, save it

Load it, check it, quick - rewrite it

Plug it, play it, burn it, rip it

Drag and drop it, zip - unzip it

Lock it, fill it, call it, find it

View it, code it, jam - unlock it

Surf it, scroll it, pause it, click it

Cross it, crack it, switch - update it

Name it, rate it, tune it, print it

Turn it, leave it, start - format it

Technologic.

Burned. Not with fire. With concentrated light. We had to focus on that shit.

Disk rot is real, we must teach the young how to care for the relics.

That's old magic, all but lost to the ages. It was practiced by ancient religions like Napster and LimeWire, but they are all gone now.

Best to let it rest. There is no advantage to dredging up all those old superstitions now.

Imagine asking social media for an answer, and not just searching. Use your brain youngooos.

They mean GenX? Probably both. Maybe a Xennial thing if I have my terminology right.

Throw the phrase “making coasters” at this guy and see what happens.

I am sad he doesn’t know what an optical disc burner is, since they’re being sold and used through to this year.
