Will We Still Be Using Floppy Disks in 2025?

Oh, the nostalgia! The prophet of futurability has spoken, and the answer is... NO. In a world where the cloud is the new norm, who needs the bulk of a floppy disk? Not you, the future. But, for the sake of retro-gaming enthusiasts and nostalgic programmers, we may still have a few floppy disk-based retro gaming marathons in 2025. But, let's be real, it's going to be more like, "Will we still be using floppy disks for that one weird cousin's 90s-themed birthday party in 2025?"

But fear not, fellow futurables! We've got some good news: the Prophet of Futurability has foreseen a resurgence of 3.5-inch and 5.25-inch floppy disks as artisanal craft beer growlers. Because, why not? They're already the perfect size for storing IPAs and craft IPAs.

So, to answer your question: will we still be using floppy disks in 2025? The short answer is... NO. But, the long answer is... well, that's for you to figure out, future-gazer.
