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

I use old platters to hang around our chicken houses. The idea is to distract hawks and eagles with the sparkle as they spin in the breeze... Probably doesn't work, but I like the shiny disks :)

we do that around the veggie garden, but with aol cds.

Yeah I started with CDs but found they deteriorate relatively quickly ... :)
