Description
A moment of silence for dead formats.
Three headstones for the media that raised us: the 3.5″ floppy (1987–2011, it saved it all), the VHS tape (1977–2006, be kind) and the cassette (1963–2011, tangled forever). Each one is drawn as clean line art with pixel-font epitaphs and a code-comment send-off. The joke is in the title: in computing, a formatted disk is a wiped disk, so these formats are dead but not formatted.
It’s for anyone who labeled floppies with a Sharpie, paid a late fee at the video store, or recorded the radio onto a blank tape. It works as a nostalgia gift for Gen X and older millennials, retro tech fans, IT veterans and anyone who still has a shoebox of mixtapes.
Glossy white ceramic mug in 11 oz and 15 oz, printed on demand with vivid, fade-resistant sublimation. Microwave and dishwasher safe.
