Does anyone else harvest the magnets and platters from old drives as a monument to selfhosting history?

I use them as coffee mats...

The 3.5s make for excellent coasters lol

How do you keep them from sticking onto cups

Good question, but I've not had that issue so far

I typically use yeti ramblers with a metal bases on them, though I've set ceramic mugs down on them too and they've not stuck. might depend on the drink a little?

Oh it's probably vacuum sealed then so it doesn't condensate

Maybe but I do spill a bit every now and then. Can't speak for the regular ceramic mugs, though that's a bit of a rarity and they just have herbal tea
