To be useful and to be beautiful

With respect to a William Morris edict – Milwaukee’s Grand Avenue circa 2016.

“If you want a golden rule that will fit everybody, this is it: Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.”

— Beauty of Life, William Morris, 1880

The floppy disk

Removable digital data storage device circa 1996.

Storage capacity of a three and a half inch floppy disk (from the 30 years ago) is 1.4 megabytes. The digital image of these floppy disks requires two floppy disks to store the data.

Try explaining that to the kidlingers.
