That's correct, you shouldn't cite Wikipedia or indeed any encyclopaedia. Instead, look at *their* citations, read those and cite those.

This actually makes sense - as a Xennial I was around at the time, and calling 3.5" floppies 'hard disks' was a classic sign of a tech-clueless person, even worse than calling the whole computer a CPU. I assume not all of them got corrected by pedantic little nerds like myself.

Yeah, I got into computers at a time when 5.25s were old and busted but still hanging on, but nothing new had anything but 3.5" floppy diskettes. Certainly often called diskettes to emphasise their smaller physical size, but very much called floppies.

The problem with calling them that is that the predominant hard drives at the time were also a 3.5 inch platter, so it doesn't properly distinguish between the floppy diskettes and the fixed hard disk drives.

When I was a kid/teen, the argument was if it was disc or disk.

There's that whole class of time looper/reset fiction, like re:zero. I can see people saying that doesn't count, but usually the deaths are experienced by the protagonist even if they don't happen from the POV of the prime timeline.

You can also just turn in a blank ballot if you're truly disgusted with the options available to you. You're not forced to actually vote for anyone - just show up and get your name checked off the list.

The corollary to mandatory voting is that it's all IRV and STV. You can vote your conscience as well as the lesser of two evils.

It's telling that the conservative media keeps trying to argue how bad mandatory voting is.

What's the model/part number?

Just an annoying little wrinkle here: I get a 30% discount on 365 Family with the www.microsoft.com/en-us/workpl.... Unfortunately Microsoft have at this time chosen not to apply that discount to the 'Classic' version, so it's actually more expensive to anyone in this program.
