Floppy drive
It's where I store my shitpost copy pastas
Please be true.
screenshot or bust
I have like 3 floppies with them on it and like 8-10GB of floppies stored somewhere in my closet that I haven't gotten around to checking if they still work.
Literally a few moving boxes full of black floppies with misc programs and operating systems from the 90s
Back in 2000 when CD burning was getting more popular my friends were throwing out their old floppies so I asked to have them.
And lo and behold a few years later along with my work letting me have theirs when they were going to dispose of them and I have about 200 pounds of floppies
I've checked like 50 of them and on average 80% were good and 5% of the 80% had bad areas on the magnetic tape
Not home now
It's not hard to believe that someone has a floppy unless you are a zoomer
this. I have a USB floppy drive that I use occasionally. but for some reason it only works on Win7 and not Win10

A webcore stereo 8 track player with radio and aux out. But unfortunately one of the channels is fucked and outputs a loud humming sound. And the balance knob doesn't properly balance any more. The speakers are still good though. Wish I could fix the amp.

And how exactly do you run "teh games* in an expansion chassis? Does it have a standard board fitted in it?
I have one of those too. It can't read 32-bit applications, only 64-bit.
IRC and programming in borland.
Do these count? Use them regularly. Late 70s early 80s.

Currently recording Nightwave Plaza on a Nakamichi RX-202 from 1982 connected to a Pioneer SX-6 from 1980. My oldest cassette player is probably a National Panasonic RQ203S from 1970, and my oldest cassette is a Pfansteihl from the late '60s, that may also contain my oldest recording: What starts as sorority party circle songs becomes a series of music by the guitarist who owned the tape and her friends, she does a version of By the Shore of the Ohio and a couple instrumentals that get more soulful until she busts into a rendition of Katyusha and another Russian folk song I can't identify. All of this is recorded over one side of the tape's original contents, it's last use being a kind of audio greeting card by a family from New York who don't seem to be related to the guitarist, but mention enough details about movies and historical events to allow me to date the original recording to the early '70s.
I also own a TI-99/4A and a TRS-80 Coco 2, but the only use the Coco gets is me programming it to flash the screen different colors and spam INSTALL GENTOO up the screen while making random musical notes, while the 99 has no power supply or anything and I kinda want to buy the $50 kit to convert it's keyboard to USB and slap a RasPi in there.
The amp I use daily.
The radio I still have, but dont use.
bubump
You should upload that recording

Do you have the 8kB expansion?
>tfw lots of old tech but never find motivation to get it out and use it
Sure. I kinda want to clean the songs up and upload them individually, as they are quite good. I'm making a recording now. Opinions on using Dolby on playback for archiving tape recordings?

I have a rotary phone from 1943 plugged in. The local exchange still supports pulse dialing so I can even use the dial.
My reciever is from 1990, though I bought it only about 6 months ago
They've been around for about 30 years and it's still difficult for headphones to match them.
HD555 headphones.
Most of my stuff is pretty new mostly because I have had massive changeovers in the last decade as I went from living at home without money, to living on my own with money, to living with someone with money.
The oldest prior to that would have been my original gameboy color, which I gifted to a friend who was into collecting retro stuff.

I have a door on my house, that's pretty old.

Pathetic dude, I won’t say kill yourself cause that’d be mean. But go use your stuff, enjoy it while you can. You can do it, Jow Forums

Sun-kraft H-1 UV/IR Heat Lamp from the 40s.
It was meant for the shitty idea that unfiltered UV light was a great thing for your health...until you got cancer.
I use it as a strong unfiltered UV light source for things like whitening plastics using retrobrite type solutions. The IR heat source helps out too. I use it in its unmodified state and make sure not to hang around it when its doing its thing.
Shoelace is a fancy word for rope.
Pretty sure

Weapons are tech and I have fired it from time to time.
