Do you mean these?

They were part of a continuity ritual we performed before they installed cupholders in computers. You’d have to feed them to your pc one at a time when requested, often whilst entering an incantation in the command prompt. The meaning may have been lost to time, but we still use their icon to honour that ritual.

e: I can’t believe I found these so quickly. They were still on the same closet shelf where I put them in 2002.

If you’re concerned about privacy, fire nearly always works.
