Topic: do you have a lot of low capacity USB flash sticks

boof started this discussion 1 week ago #122,658

I'm thinking, I don't need all of these sticks. Maybe keep a couple of handsome ones. The others can go to electronic waste processing.

That's not going to make the lesser sticks happy

Make sure you've removed all porn. I once gave a flash drive to a video operator which I had put client PowerPoint on and had left some smutty videos. Luckily the tech was cool and noticed it before playing anything.

None under 4GB. Always need a few 4GB ones laying around for certain tasks.

I have some I need to cycle out due to age / failing. Occasionally I have saved a few with the 'recover' options but it gets annoying reaching for programs or files and the stupid thumb drive is dead (I have HDD backups, just sucks having to dig those out instead).

Same. We have some stuff at work that prefers the small (ish) ones and likes fat32 or fat16 or whatever crusty old computers like.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

Nerd alert!

Agreed though; I appreciate the work they put into this stuff :D.

Bollocks.

1. Linux IS an O.S.
2. GNU = GNU's Not Unix, i.e. it is any unix-like system (like Linux) that isn't Unix.
3. POSIX is a portability specification and standard, not an O.S. specification.
4. A kernel is the core of an operating system. Linux has one just like any other O.S. but Linux isn't just "the kernel".

I used to make fun of you for doing that but then some of my favorite porn videos were taken down off the sites and I can't find them easily anymore, so I understand.

I just realized I could say I doesn’t and it would be grammatically correct because I am I right now.

You know, I think porn is one of those things where you dip in and dip out and deny that it ever happened and that’s the way it should be.

Yeah, I like that better too. It's like doing drugs... rather did the drugs - you don't want evidence laying around.

Gay porn, no doubt. Probably some Brazilian Fart Porn on there, too.
