I was gifted an unopened pack of 3.5" floppy disks. What should I do with them? (wrong answers only)(feddit.org)

I wonder what “limited lifetime warranty” means.

You… don’t know what a floppy disk is, do you?

I do, I just don’t pay careful attention to details and just run with what I think things are saying.

My first computer was an Atari 520ST. No hard drive (its OS ran off a chip), and every program ran off a floppy. And your storage was on a floppy.

Yeah, I know floppies. I used to have shoeboxes of them.
