The PC will continue its trend toward irrelevance. Even most of /g/ doesn't do anything that necessitates owning one. They play games or find ways to make their computer an end instead of a means. A small minority actually do something creative/productive.

>>55073839
Not after linux fucks up the partition table you cant. Or after the disk has been used as a live usb. You need to create a new table then you could do that. Also have to worry about drives being mounted and all that shit. Diskpart does that automatically and its a tool as old as windows xp.
>>55073892
fdisk /dev/sdb
>>55073892
mkfs does not alter your partition table shitposter.
>>55073920
Its more than just one command even with fdisk and you still have to fiddle fuck with mounting.
>>55073941
Please reread the post.
>>55073389
are you trying to say you literally broken windows update while clicking stuff? why is this allowed?
>>55073703
lemme guess you used dd or gnome-disks to put an iso on it ,and it fucked up your block size? If not then why are you making a new partition table when you reformat?
>>55072698
Saging isn't down voting fucktard, it just doesn't bump the thread. Your post is redundant.
>>55074040
Report button is super-downvote. Nothin personnel...kid...
>>55074000
Yes dd. Because mounting it as a loop device and copy pasta is just another step to deal with.
Either way the while process of repairing a drive in linux is a nightmare. In windows its completely painless.
>>55074157
well best way to fix dd is by using dd:sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=1k count=2048
where /dev/sdX is your usb drive. I use this instead of the windows "select disk / Clean"
next you do an partition table and format the disk nomrally , ofc you need to make sure none of the disks are mounted before. Its not that different, and i bet it can be done simpler i just dont care enough to lurk moar for this.
>>55074071
Probably more likely to fuck yourself doing that.
>>55074227
Looks kinda like a hack to me.

I do that with rubber domes to ensure every keypress registers.
>>55074264
Well its not a hack ,you just tried to do
make a new partition table -> new partition primary -> format fat32
without cleaning before. Try it with diskpart without clean and it will shit itself too.
>>55074289
I know.

>>55074510
the problem was that he used dd to make a bootable usb from an .iso. Which fucks the block size , and makes gparted think that a 2GB flash drive is 4GB in size or something, and when it tries to format that it shits itself.

No i mean some user has gone ahead and fucked up their install and then windows went to do an update and that brought it all down
whats more important is that you can shit all over windows for months before it finally fails and becomes unusable, but in linux just one small incorrect thing or bug makes the whole thing become broken

I've been told aptitude is better. Although in my experience, apt-get is better at resolving dependencies issues.
