@djlink The perfect setup to say, "With lasers," and instead he decides to go for the gnostic priesthood thing.

I bet he doesn't even know.

Lasers. We burned them with lasers.

@4Dboy

To be fair, more correct use of quotation marks than most.

@djlink

ah, burning CDs. the mating ritual.

just like burning their favorite hoodie or flannel shirt on breakup. or was that just me?

[Gast]

@djlink The modern equivalent? You don't have a human crush but talk love to a LLM which you prompt to add songs to your playlist.

@djlink@mastodon.gamedev.place not gonna lie, I kinda want to do, despite being born in 2002, but I'm not sure, how many would be able to play them...

@djlink

I connected to the Razorback II server with my Emule client for my crush.

No Zoomer will understand it

@barnesmaurice @djlink
Well, some of you did.

[Gast]

@djlink

What do they mean "used to"? I'm not giving my money to a streaming service that advertises for ICE. Bring on the burning!

[Gast]

@djlink USB sticks. Then, after you break up, she can erase it and put gamesaves on it.

[Gast]

I would say that she has guessed that burn doesn't mean burn the whole CD, but doesn't know what it does mean.
In answer to her questions:
- was it like a ritual? Yes.
- did it work? If you did the ritual right, yes, sometimes.
