  1. Safe Eclipse Viewing by Alexius · · Score: 3, Funny
    If you look through the actual disk part of a floppy diskette (Either 5.25 or 3.5 size), you will see the sun as a red circle, and you can safely watch the eclipse through them.


    Can't say if the diskette will survive, never tried it with one I liked.
