Desk of Ladyada! Post-Turkey updates from Ladyada! We tested new boards (minor FPC tweak, no respin needed) and started designing a sleek WLED board with help from firepixie & the community. Plus, check out The Great Search for high-power diodes and Day 1 of Retrocomputing Advent: Apple II nostalgia! https://youtu.be/JL_V4hA1TZE

My oldest floppy disk turns 40 this year.
My friend has a GreaseWeazle and a 5.25" floppy drive. This arrangement lets you read raw data off 5.25" floppies from pretty much any platform.
I brought over my Apple II floppies from my childhood. I had already imaged them all in the late 90s, but I got curious if they still read.
They still read. Even the oldest one, dated December 1983 that my dad gave me as my first floppy disk when I was six years old.
The few that had bad blocks were ones I remember having bad blocks when I tried back in 1999. So I don't think they even degraded much since then.
The media longevity of the original Shugart SA400 floppy disk system is absolutely astounding. It completely blows my mind. FOURTY YEARS LATER and the disk still reads with zero errors like it was written yesterday.
The First Disk. Probably the first computer media I ever held in my hands in my entire life.
The Apple II was a Christmas surprise in 1983. So dad had created this floppy for me a week in advance.
It's mostly a stock DOS 3.3 system master, but has a couple random things I saved on it til it ran out of space and I had to start... well, my second floppy.
