I've had worse.

I read "CD" in your post and assumed it was shorthand for some item in Destiny. I was thinking, 'Does he mean Commendation? Maybe he is talking about Sharding an Exotic.'
Totally forgot that Compact Disc was a thing :P

I burned a CentOS 6.6 x64 install DVD just last week. Does that count?

Sure! As long as you didn't use a microwave!

Think small, shiny record that fits in your hand...

You have really gone off the deep end with this one

Yes.

[*]Did you use a marker to write anything on top of it?

Sharpee.

Heh. I laughed at how badly worded my question was. Good answer! :)

I still listen to it from time to time, so I guess my ears still like it. Or was this all a joke?

Joke.

Probably for the best. Easily scratched and stolen discs maybe wasn't our finest technological feat of all time...

Actually, the Compact Disc is a pretty remarkable invention. The idea of using lasers (lasers!) in a consumer product a couple years before I was born is kind of crazy to me.

And you say "easily scratched," but a CD has a fair amount of redundancy built-in (for Red Book, it was 8 bytes of error correction data for every 24 bytes of actual data), which means it was a frak ton more reliable than other media of the day. Remember broken tapes clogging your player? Yeah, that was fun.

• What kind of CD was it? audio
  
• How long ago did your burn it? last week
  
• How long did it take? a minute

• Was it an audio CD or a data CD? audio
  
• Did you burn it on accident or on purpose? with great purpose
  
• Would you actually call it burnt or just "really well done"? perfectly done
  
• How did it taste afterwards? plasticy

I still primarily use tapes in the car, and I won't have you disparaging them.

...but apparently both "burnt" and "burned" are correct, it's just that you typically see the former in Britain. Learn something new everyday, I guess?

They could have 8 yottabytes of error correction and it wouldn't help them not get stolen...

I can only dream of having a tape deck in my car! I'm stuck with a 6 disc changer and no other audio input which means I can only listen to a fraction of my music and in only one order. Want to sort by Artist or Playlist? Forgetaboutit! :/

Moral of the story? Lasers are cool, but Magnets are much more useful.

They could have 8 yottabytes of error correction and it wouldn't help them not get stolen...

Somehow yottabyte had escaped my lexicon. Now I'm in a wiki wormhole clustering around DNA computing. I'm learning a whole bunch today.

[*]What kind of CD was it?

Audio

[*]How long ago did your burn it?

Just a few weeks ago! My work car just has a CD player - no USB or external input capability.

[*]How long did it take?

2 or 3 minutes, tops. I remember when I had a 1x CD burner - it used to take however long the CD was, plus a few minutes extra. Progress, man.

[*]Was it a rewritable CD or just a regular one?

Standard CD-R. Believe it or not, some audio CD players don't behave well with CD-RW discs. So, as cheap as CD-Rs are, I just stick with them when making audio discs.

[*]Did you use a marker to write anything on top of it?

Yup. Artist/album name.

[*]What software did you use to burn it?

Brasero

[*]Was it an audio CD or a data CD?

Audio

[*]Did you burn it on accident or on purpose?

I never do anything by accident.

[*]Would you actually call it burnt or just "really well done"?

I would call it a reminder of the depressingly rapid pace of technology.

[*]How did it taste afterwards?

It tasted like Paramore, which is to say delicious.

[*]What kind of CD was it? Blu-Ray

Note: Banana is relatively close to Liam Neeson attractive. Call me, Ladies!

I watch so much British TV that I don't even notice these things anymore.

Never. By the time I had a burnable optical drive, it was a DVD burner.

Grammar, you bastard.

I don't actually think you are a bastard.

I don't actually think you are a nazi.

I don't actually think you are a bastard.

I don't actually think you are a nazi.

You could actually save some time by combining these.

I don't actually think you are a nazi or a bastard.

I don't actually think you are a nazi bastard.

Additionally, you should use a contraction on "you are" if you're going to do it with "do not".

I don't actually think you're a nazi bastard.

That said, both sentences were grammatically correct! Welcome aboard! Here's your armband.

• Data CD--compilation of highly rated songs from Without Boundaries.
  
• Actually, 4 days ago.
  
• About 5 minutes.
  
• I tell ya, they don't even make rewritable ones anymore.
  
• No. I knew what it was.
  
• iTunes.
  
• Sorta both. It was a Data CD composed entirely of audio.
  
• Takes a lot of steps to burn something--no way it can be accidental.
  
• Burnt.
  
• I no longer gently lick CD's any more. They're desensitized.

I know a bunch of people who refuse to stop referring to Blu-rays as DVDs. This is a whole new level.

"Are you sure you burned this LaserDisc thing right? The tape deck won't play it."

-Actual quote from my house.

I'm having trouble figuring out which one of several possible incorrect actions led to that quote.
