@OctaviaConAmore @misnina The computers themselves often used 'disk' to mean 'any storage medium', including both floppies & hard drives e.g. 'please insert disk 5'. Still do, as far as I know.
But in casual conversation there's more truth to saying that floppy disks were never called discs because they were square and not round.
@misnina oh right I forgot about those fools
@misnina This isn't coming from the same fools eating turnips raw on your Vintage Story server, is it?
@misnina I also knew them as floppy disks. Just 'disk' meant a lot of things—hard disk, floppy disk, compact disk—so you had to specify!
Also the disk was floppy, but the hard square case was not. 🤓
