have I mentioned that I hate SD cards? because wow do I hate SD cards. awful awful storage format.
poor physical resilience, poor data integrity and retention at both rest and in flight, a mix of standard and proprietary protocols, a massive standards shitshow, utterly uninteligible branding on speed grades, and a market for fakes and bullshit claims that makes buying them a miserable gamble
microSD in particular is a product category that I find baffling. it is so physically small that it becomes useless as a portable storage medium because you 100% will lose it, and if you need any appreciable density or performance on the thing it's also very expensive, which makes losing it all the more terrible. so most of the time it's only getting used for expansion storage, which would be far better served by the device just having more native storage using a far better device type.

Yes, but hear me out:
@Andres @gsuberland Don't suppose you have a link to that STL, do you? ^_^
@moira @Andres @gsuberland Seconded. That is absolutely awesome
@GeoWend @moira @Andres @gsuberland looks like the guy who made this sells them for $22 each. https://transmutable.gumroad.com/l/msdfo?layout=profile
Smol Floppy Disk Organizer for Micro SD Cards

Back when floppies were new we kept them safe in somewhat terrible plastic bins.Now that micro SD cards can hold thousands of times more data they're what we use and what we lose! Because, smol.So, here's a little throwback to the floppy organizer but sized for micro SD cards. I used double-sided tape to stick mine to the top of my PC monitor because I'd lose it on my messy desk.If you're looking for another size (but still smol) floppy organizer then we have then for SD cards and Switch cartridges.Notes:These wee floppy organizers do not include micro SD cards.Please be aware that these are made on demand by me, Trevor Flowers, in a garage workshop so while I always try to make and ship these little friends in a timely manner sometimes I need to rest in a hammock and daydream about alternative timelines where Lisp machines became the norm.

@purp
Sold, because apparently he sold out - at least until he feels like offering more. I see him being very confused by the sudden interest. 😂
@GeoWend @moira @Andres @gsuberland

@rlcw @purp @GeoWend @moira @Andres @gsuberland I recreated the design for myself and made one, thought you all might also be interested if you have access to a 3d printer?
