If you do help them, I suggest giving them all wrong answers. The world does not need yet another lazy programmer.

I search for this...
IMG Image File, Blank 3.5 Inch Floppy Disk
I get this...
https://archive.org/details/blank-floppy (find it HERE, if it matters)
...which is Perfect, exactly what I asked for.
So, I change the 3.5 to 5.25 and repeat the search.
And, Huh ??? Such a thing does not exist anywhere on the entire internet ???
Brain Assistance welcome

5.25" floppies are dinosaurs, 3.5" floppies are the new thing. Come on, man, join us in the 90's!
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

I still have a box of 3.5's near my desk. They include the first programs I ever wrote on the PC with Turbo C.

I chucked all my 3.5 floppies out about 15 years ago. Now I regret not keeping some of them, like the PowerBasic disc and some of the BBS game programs I wrote with it, as well as my favorite WWII aerial battle simulator, Battlehawks 1942.

It's amazing the capability of some of those old games given how small they were, and before graphics cards.
I had a Star Wars game on floppy that featured dog fighting between X-Wings and Tie's.
