I remember a very long time ago (maybe 20-30 years) a drink company like Coca Cola created an app for Windows that was a cup holder. It had a single button that would open your disc drive just like this. I thought it was the funniest thing ever back then.

I think we can all collectively agreee that the intersection of daily life and technology had peaked in the 90s/early 2000s. It’s been downhill ever since

My 2008 sony vaio when I got 12 years old, only works a little bit with Linux . I can watch some movies , dvd sometimes but that’s it . I don’t really use it anymore.
My asus from 2016 is the most recent laptop I use with a Samsung one from 2016 as well .
I would like a laptop with DVD/blueray player.

I kind of miss disc drives. It was a great way to back up file sharing.

First thing I did with that is I replaced it with an SSD and sold the drive to some repair shop
