As my good deed for today, I updated the FlashPath Wikipedia page as it was missing references and had a wrong announcement date (FlashPath was announced in March 1998, not May 1998).

hear me out, how about NOT CRAMMING EVERYTHING INTO ONE DEVICE that just works mid for everything, but instead, you know, do some actual innovation here and there
for example, make devices specifically tailored for certain tasks
like if you're Apple why in the fuck don't you make devices with e-paper screens for people who don't want to be terminally online

To further set my replies on fire, "disk" is not short for "diskette" (diskette is a diminutive and means "small disk").
Diskettes first showed up in 8" size, which may not seem particularly small but hard disks at the time were larger, often 14 inches (more than 3× the surface area of 8").
The 5¼" diskettes that followed were introduced as "mini-diskettes", or "small small disks".
3½" diskettes were "micro-diskettes", or "very small small disks".

Anyway, obviously floppy disk refers to the floppy disk that stores data, just as thumb drive refers to…

Maybe you think all of this is irrelevant now, who gives a fuck about a media format more than 50 years old?
Well, fun fact, the design of SD cards is referencing the design of floppy disks, and were specifically made thin enough to be used in floppy adapters (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FlashPath).
Yes, they made an adapter to stick your SD card in and read and write it in a standard floppy disk drive; though you would need to install special software to use it (ironically that software probably came on a CD).
Why would they do such a thing? Because there was no (widespread) USB.
