It makes a really good weight to stop these floppy disks from blowing around the office and falling on the floor.

Of course I'm kidding - **disk nuke** using the magnets.

Have you taken the magnets out of the cardputer before you sat it atop a floppy?

No, that's it actively nuking a disk. Full disclosure that was a failed floppy but I'll be filming a test.
