>mounting a usb drive in linux
>>
>>53315086
mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb

Nice b8 i rate 8/8 m8.
>>
>>53315086
I remember back in the days when this was so true. Franticly running lsusb to see if its detected. Now its easy thanks to those amazing guys in kernel dev and those front end folks who created a popup function in those amazing desktop env.
>>
>>53315086
Terrible.

>Linux
generic drivers for EVERYTHING, you can forget fancy features for USB/PCI/PCIe/TB devices

>Windows
specialized drivers for even more stuff, full featured mouse, keyboard, printers, storage etcetc

Linux is honestly a joke

Linux - Golf 2, works, but its not interesting
Windows - Lexus LFA

mount will generally take care of the filesystem type for you now.

Usually just dmesg after plugging in the drive to see what it is assigned to then mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/usb

udisksctl mount --block-device /dev/sdb1
Better yet
udisksctl mount --block-device /dev/disk/by-label/fag

It's really time to move on from that 1996 command, udisksctl is much more modern.

What ?
>>
>>53315253
Why do I have to use the terminal to copy a freaking file? Linuxtards fuck
>>
>>53315623
pro-tip: you don't have to
>>
>>53315623
You shithat, you mounted it. Now you can open a filemanager and copy it.
Also
>cp /mnt/usb/faggot.file /home/faggot/
>>
>>53315377
I'm not gonna bother arguing with a retard/shill
>>
when i plug in a usb drive my file manager detects it automatically and i copy files onto it

what's the problem here?

This sounds like something the newborn anti-christ would bark out the moment it is summoned.

>>53315623
Because you don't have a daemon configured to mount your flash drives for you.

This is why Linux will never become a popular desktop OS.

There's only one terminal command you have to memorize, man.

>Windows 10 sucks!
Russian tier whataboutism. The suckage of windows 10 does not make linux suck any less.
>>
>>53316733
You're right, Windows 10 doesn't make Linux any less bad, but Windows 10 and its predecessors are still worse so Linux is the logical choice.
>>
>>53316733
You're entirely correct in your opinion that Linux sucks. Hoo boy does Linux ever suck. It sucks almost as bad as OpenBSD, a huge fucking ball of suck. Thankfully it doesn't suck quite as bad as OS X, a true event horizon of suck. Speed of UNIX is no longer enough to escape the feeling of suck. OS X is comparable to VMS in the massive suckage emitted and redshifted into nearly pure heat on my face as I see red wrestling with the massive force of suckage. OS X is lucky, however; thanks to relativistic effects it will, from its perspective, take an infinitely long time to reach the singularity or pure suck that is Windows. It will remain eternally glued, separated from the lurking, Haw^H^H^HSucking radiating mass of terrible by the latter's ginormous Schwarzschild radius. Were windows ever to collide with another OS of similar sucking proportions, the burst of gravitational waves would be enough for you to piss onto Andromeda with the distance warping caused.
