    Live discs, as distinct from CD


Live discs aren't CDs? I always burned a live image onto a CD and then
put that into a CD/DVD drive. Is there a way to stuff a live disc into a
USB slot on a computer wihout an optical drive? I must have missed that
option because I certainly would have loved to do that.

The live media spins of Fedora are well over 700MB. A CD can only hold
about 700MB max on special media (about 470MB for standard media), so
no, they're not CD images for most folk.

You can put a live media spin on a USB stick using several methods and
they work fine--assuming your hardware can and will boot a USB stick.
Not all will.
