I didn't know floppys (floppies?) got that big! I only recognize the 3.5 inch one from old Windows 98 physical installs.

My first had a 5 1/4, and I’ve seen the 8 inchers, but never had the pleasure of using one.

That sounded way dirtier than I meant.

They get bigger. I saw I think it was an 8 inch floppy once
