A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

i sure was fucking hoping it was though
I burned two DVDs yesterday. First time in almost a decade, but it made me wonder why I don’t do it more often. I still have 98 blank DVDs on a spool purchased years ago.

I'm baffled at how many people here still burn cds.....
Burnt one recently for a profile backup on a terminated user.
I recently got a USB CD drive/burner. But I don't have blank CDs lol
That's sad but true, man. Miss you "Car Rock VI".
Occasionally break out the burner, it’s just very rare. Plus these days it’s a portable little usb drive.
I still burn DVDs. Ever since USB storage was deemed "not secure", they are the easiest way to get data into and out of sensitive networks.

I still have an external burner and a stack of CDs, and multiple players including my old ass car. I also listen to tapes, vinyl, and regularly use my NES and VCR. Reject modernity, embrace tradition lmao.
but did you know you can use the 2nd controller to control the ducks?

My gen Z kids burn CDs - it's a "retro" thing for them. Literally burnt one last week.
I was just thinking "I need to burn some music CDs for when I travel", just in case.
I went on a car trip earlier this year, but forgot my bluetooth to aux adapter. I tried to buy one while I was on the road, but places were sold out, didn't carry them, or they only sold them via online orders.
As luck would have it, I still had some old CDs I'd burned 20ish years ago sitting in my glove compartment! I honestly did not expect them to work because they'd likely spent at least the last decade+ in that glove compartment, enduring extremes of heat and cold. They were scratched to hell and back and I had always heard that they degrade and become unreadable after a certain amount of time, even under ideal storage conditions.
Luckily for me, though, they mostly worked. I think there were a couple of songs on one disc that skipped a bunch, and everything else played fine. I rediscovered a few great songs from my youth that I'd not heard in so long that I'd practically forgotten about them.
I burned an Active Shooter video for work last week. I got a lot of spare discs. Might be a good way to store copies of everything the fascists are deleting.
I knew. I had been meaning to buy an aftermarket car stereo with USB and MP3 support for a long time. I was on my last blank CD, and had to decide then whether I would buy more CDs, or whether I would buy a new stereo that didn't need CDs.
I’ve still got some CDs and a burner. I’m gonna go burn one just to spite this.
