@paul 😂 Too late!
I swear, nobody in government understands technology.

@markarayner Toby was just a little kitten in a big world. Judging by what lay before their eyes it was a VERY big world. Placed before them was a blue bowl that could fit twenty similarly sized kittens inside with the largest mountain of kibble that they had ever seen in their life. They thought "This is the moment! Time to seize the day!" And they proceeded to devour this mountain with all of their might.

@pinakographos To be fair, that “AI” is still fairly young and probably not very mature!

@jordan @misnina There was a brief period of time where 3.5” was the “hard disk” that we had. 8” and 5.25” were the floppies.
The slang evolved as those floppies vanished from normal usage and actual hard drives were becoming the norm. We kept the term floppy for the 3.5” overall and those of us who used hard disk switched to keeping that for hard drives. Also, diskette was pretty common in usage too at that point. But diskette was not only common yet old by that point and referred to floppies also.
People will argue ad nauseam about why they used whatever slang.
