It's too high tech for my computer.

[–]blazingkin 14 points15 points ago

So who exactly owns the copyrights for the internet?

Pff. You can't own property man.

[–]powernut 0 points1 point ago

Not you. Ownership is for the ruling class.

[–]bildowski 0 points1 point ago

Trademark. And Microsoft thought they had a shot bc the circle r means it was registered with the uspto.

[–]exorbitantwealth 69 points70 points ago

That is a disk not a disc.

[–]TheGodDamnDevil 47 points48 points ago

Yep. Protip to you kids who are too young to remember using these: CDs are discs and frisbees are usually discs, but floppies and hard drives are always disks.

[–]Dooey123 8 points9 points ago

...which is short for diskette.

[–]jamstight 3 points4 points ago

I thought it was called a hard disk. Talk about a game changer.

[–]counter-strike 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, I remember the 5.25" being called a floppy disk. Then these 3.5" came out as hard disks. Now the 3.5" are called floppy disk. ಠ_ಠ

[–]tenix 9 points10 points ago

No the were always called "three and a half inch floppy".

[–]ExistentialEnso 1 point2 points ago

Right. I think people made that mistake since the casing of 3.5" floppies is more rigid compared to the 5.25" ones, but it's referring to the internal disc itself, which is just a sheet of plastic with a magnetic coating and, thus, is "floppy" compared to, say, a platter.

[–]jaymobe07 1 point2 points ago

Or my erect penis...

[–]stfm 0 points1 point ago

Or a "case disk"

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

It sounds like you're describing me... :(

[–]hobovision 1 point2 points ago

I went to go learn about this differences between the two spellings, and now, disc/disk doesn't even feel like a real word anymore.

[–]sherlie 11 points12 points ago

... what is the difference? I never thought about that before...

[–]exorbitantwealth 10 points11 points ago

Floppy diskette, compact disc.

[–]alphanovember 2 points3 points ago

Also, disco ball.

[–]Grilled_Meats 22 points23 points ago

Disc is supposedly reserved for optical media, like CDs. Disks rely on magnetism, like a floppy.

[–]mjsher2 10 points11 points ago

Disc pretty much just describes the shape.

[–]poon-is-food 1 point2 points ago

unless its flash its always a disc shape. apart from wax cylinders a disc was the only way of storing data permenantly (and tapes, but fuck tapes)

[–]DerpaKey 0 points1 point ago

Most businesses run on tape backups...

(something tells me your being sarcastic but I'm gonna say this anyway.)

Fuck tapes? Fuck you sir!

(no harm intended)

[–]poon-is-food 0 points1 point ago

yeah my school ran on tape backups

we were actually really lucky with our IT dept.

[–]sherlie 3 points4 points ago

huh. TIL. Thanks!

[–]suppermick 2 points3 points ago

Disk is actually short for Diskette.

[–]doesntakethehighroad 3 points4 points ago

Which itself is likely a word play on cassette.

[–]DrMonocle 9 points10 points ago

Millions? Awesome compression, each page is less than one byte!

The Elders of the Internet will never stand for it!

Tim and Eric's Innernette: http://video.adultswim.com/tim-and-eric-awesome-show-great-job/the-innernette.html

Dave Chappelle had a funny skit too:http://www.comedycentral.com/video-clips/az3sy8/chappelle-s-show-if-the-internet-was-a-real-place

Yes there's porn. All of the Reddit links were purple tho, mainly reposts.

[–]DonkeyBallSlap 3 points4 points ago

I don't even have a floppy drive :(

[–]SardonicNihilist 3 points4 points ago

Hard all the time eh?

[–]DonkeyBallSlap 0 points1 point ago

yes to be completely honest

[–]bheath825 0 points1 point ago

[–]DonkeyBallSlap 0 points1 point ago

you could say that

[–]skollierabbit 2 points3 points ago

in south africa we use to call them stiffies true story

[–]MacNamedDre 2 points3 points ago

Did that thing say copyright 2005?

[–]barrybulsara 1 point2 points ago

I dunno... let me rewind the browser for you and take another look at it....

... yes, it did.

[–]Squill2k4 2 points3 points ago

I would love to see what sites are actually on that disk.

[–]Red_AtNight 2 points3 points ago

It's a shop. Seriously, those artifacts belong in a museum

[–]Subduction 0 points1 point ago

It's not a shop, it's a real thing.

-- Someone who was there.

[–]Red_AtNight 0 points1 point ago

I was there too my friend. My first PC ran Windows 3.1.

I can assure you, this is a shop, and a bad one at that.

[–]Subduction 0 points1 point ago

If you were there, then you clearly remember the wide variety of "Internet on a disk" products.

If not, then you weren't there.

[–]bombproof 2 points3 points ago

when I look at those things, I think "they are so much better than a 5.25 in"

So well designed.

[–]drukenhard 5 points6 points ago

Must have been great catching up on all the news from the 1980's

[–]fuyunoyoru 10 points11 points ago

What's actually on the disc?

[–]TheGodDamnDevil 11 points12 points ago

It's a photoshop.

[–]fenrisulfur 4 points5 points ago

On the disk???

[–]fuyunoyoru 3 points4 points ago

Thank you.

[–]velvethammer44 4 points5 points ago

What's in the booooxxxxx?!?!

[–]synzian 4 points5 points ago

A living-dead cat.

[–]pureskill 0 points1 point ago

When I open it, it better be as described.

[–]synzian 1 point2 points ago

Did you not realize it's Schrödinger's cat

[–]pureskill 0 points1 point ago

I did. Hence the joke: When I open it, it can't be as described. It will be dead or alive, no longer both.

[–]synzian 1 point2 points ago

Schrödinger's cat walks into a bar but doesn't.

[–]cam13am 0 points1 point ago

[–]Rountree85 2 points3 points ago

Wish I could suck your dick without drinking all of your cum.

The Internet.

[–]DerpaKey -1 points0 points ago

Pictures of Kittens, Porn, Unreliable sources of information, porn, 13 yr old's, Horses, porn, Terrorists and a little bit more of porn.

Essentially enough to keep r/aww and pedophiles happy.

[–]iDirtyDianaX 1 point2 points ago

[–]daxq27 0 points1 point ago

[–]Superbeetle 1 point2 points ago

Only if the leopard can change his shorts.

[–]jeremiahbarnes 1 point2 points ago

Quick! Where's the link to that creepy website that contains weird stories, one of which is about having the internet on a bunch of floppies. I can't remember the name of the site, but it's relevant.

[–]synzian 1 point2 points ago

[–]dillylemmocks 1 point2 points ago

1.44MB ~ 1.5 million bytes

+

"Millions and millions of websites"

=> A few bits per website?

[–]Subduction 1 point2 points ago

If only they had some way of compressing data.

[–]natemare 1 point2 points ago

It's mostly reposts anyway; 1.44 MB is plenty.

[–]dillylemmocks 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, and with the 0.1% compression ratios that are so typical today...

[–]apb2390 1 point2 points ago

[–]helloworld111 1 point2 points ago

But that's only the 2005 edition! Real men get the 2012 edition!

[–]shoziku 1 point2 points ago

This was cool but none of the live web cams were working that day.

[–]fertehlulz 1 point2 points ago

You can download Wikipedia for offline use.

edit: 34.8 GB uncompressed with no images

[–]hobblyhoy 0 points1 point ago

Yup, I have a smaller version of that on my iPhone

[–]stfm 1 point2 points ago

Coming from a time when to research in school we had 4 different sets of encyclopaedia on shelves in the library - this just staggers me.

[–]coverlie 1 point2 points ago

[–]Mr_Brightside_ 0 points1 point ago

If the storage space was infinite, what's the need for 150 disks?

[–]apb2390 0 points1 point ago

Organization.

[–]sepseven 0 points1 point ago

....what is this?

[–]stillnotking 9 points10 points ago

A save button.

[–]sepseven 0 points1 point ago

let me rephrase that. what is this "the internet on a disc??"

[–]Blamemeta 0 points1 point ago

A floppy disc. It is a thing best left forgotten. Less than a megabyte of memory on those things.

[–]Bran_Solo 20 points21 points ago

Most held 1.44MB.

[–]MxTINKxM 2 points3 points ago

I remember when Zip Disks came out. I felt like a god carrying that amount of data in my pocket

[–]Subduction 0 points1 point ago

Click > Click > Click > Click...

[–]Blamemeta 2 points3 points ago

Sorry, I am a misinformed teenager. I was under the impression the rarely held more than a few kilobytes

[–]vox35 1 point2 points ago

You're probably thinking of the even older 8 inch floppy disks, which held only 100 kbs or so. The 8 inch disks actually were floppy, btw, unlike the smaller disks that came later.

http://oldcomputers.net/floppydisks.html

[–]Blamemeta 0 points1 point ago

ah. thanks.

[–]cowpunter 0 points1 point ago

The 3.5" disk are floppy too. If you take one apart you can see. The original 3.5" disks were only 720k double density but for most of the time they were in use they were 1.44M high density.

[–]Bran_Solo 1 point2 points ago

Well, upvote for honesty :)

Most 3.5" floppies were 1.44MB, later on there was a less common 2.88MB floppy.

I remember using WinZip to split files across multiple disks so I could give my friend MP3s. Inna Gadda Da Vida took like 15 disks.

[–]Cunnin_Linguist 0 points1 point ago

Does this remind anyone else of the first Men in Black? Where the cat has the universe on its collar?

[–]Sloppy_Twat 0 points1 point ago

the physics don't work out

[–]TehMushy 0 points1 point ago

I agree. I have this image in my dropbox as I saw it here, on Reddit, a few months ago.

[–]Tunavi 0 points1 point ago

does that say 2005???

No.

[–]RedditingMyLifeAway 0 points1 point ago

Daaamn, where do I get a copy of that? With that I can still get the Internet, even during a power outage.

[–]abom420 0 points1 point ago

Where in the hell am I going to put that? I havn't even seen a floppy drive since at least 2000

[–]S1LW3R 0 points1 point ago

can somebody find a download link for the content of this floppy?

[–]Watercolour 0 points1 point ago

(C) 2001??????? This would have made much more sense if it were 1994 or earlier. I remember in those times the internet actually had a "phone book" equivalent in which all of the websites were listed in a huge book. Your hand turning the pages was the "search engine".

[–]DisplacedLeprechaun 0 points1 point ago

The Microsoft 2005 there seems a bit odd, seeing as how nobody in their right mind would use a floppy after 2000.

[–]Dovakhim 0 points1 point ago

holy shit they copyrighted the Internet

[–]boblamb58 0 points1 point ago

It fits in your pocket! How can you go wrong?

[–]omegahelix 0 points1 point ago

How the hell is "The Internet" a registered trademark of Microsoft?

[–]Mitz510 0 points1 point ago

How did that thing work? I didn't get a computer till 2004.

[–]Palamede 0 points1 point ago

How many floppies would it take to save the internet ? 5 million terabytes divided by 1.44 Mo equals... Oh I'm too lazy.

Affected how? I didn't look at Reddit for six weeks and when I came back it was the same shit as before. It's become the biggest rerun of banal content in the history of the Internet.

Well... Except for Gawker and Facebook.
