Hey /g/, what are some essentials you have on a flash drive that you carry around with you?
>pic related
Homework, 2d girls, Linkin Park, some ominous warning that only mother will see.

I don't carry around a flash drive. I have my laptop. Faggot.
I don't carry a flash drive around with programs an such.
I use to in college. Portable Firefox so I could run it on the school PC's.
And I use to have Frostwire installed on my iPod Classic actually to download on different PC's.
Emergency contact information on a text file, a 128kbps album rip of Yu-Gi-Oh! - Music To Duel By, and a picture of my dog Quentin.
>>51799492
Damn, do you suffer from anxiety anon.
Tell me if I connect the dots correct.
You have panic attack or some medical shit. They have your USB, they play yu-gi-oh! so you can relax and chill and then they show you a photo of your dog?
>>51798893
music laptop saves and txt files of things I want to do for the day ,Movies for my tv and some internet pictures I want to upload
I don't save anything on my laptop i dunno why.
>>51799492

I've got one with a portable version of NPP for Windows and generic storage space for whatever from Windows, and my 'real' one with a persistent storage copy of Lubuntu
>>51799523
I do have mind anxiety, but not enough to just breakdown or whatever. The contact information is just in case I guess, and I cary cards with me so when my friends want to duel, I play the soundtrack. I just like my dog.
>>51799599
My midi collection.
I don't carry a flash drive, I did in college though.
Now I just keep anything I want on my phone since I always have it with me anyways.

He's 6 years old, still as energetic as when he was younger. He's afraid of the dark though, so I have to have a nightlight on for him or else he cries.

You have been visited by the cozy pupper of gentle dreams... Just kidding, those posts are stupid.
Ah man, I'm sorry to hear that anon. I've known too many dogs like that, that's why I want this one to be happy. He's always been there for me, I want to do my best to let him know I appreciate him.
>>51799870
Your dog is so cute. I can see why you like him.

I'm pretty sure that in any conceivable emergency, there will be a computer available for you to plug in your usb flash drive and retrieve that *.txt whilst looking at a pic of your dog.

Have 16GB picrelated, works well. I don't carry it around, just using it as backup flash drive with some photos, essential programs and few games. Hope it'll work forever, I just backed up my info and don't use it at all.

I still use a livecd for fixing shit so no need for a usb in that regard. I should probably get one to put some generic drivers and a Windows 7 bootable on though, gets annoying finding the LAN driver every time I reformat someones pc.

Good thread.
I have a flash drive with a bunch of university and Firefox OS stuff. I'll buy another one to install TAILS on it so I can get used to it.
I also carry stuff on my Flame, as it's always in my pocket so I just need to plug it in a computer to listen to high res music I've downloaded on Qobuz. I also use it to download stuff, like I did with portable tools and distros when my computer was broken.

I don't carry a flashdrive anymore, just a laptop. Are you niggas still in school or some shit?
>>51807788
nope, but i do have a job that requires saving files and such.
I got a $25 Best Buy gift card. Should I buy a usb stick or is there something else I should get? I'm thinking of just going in store and price matching from Amazon/Newegg since they'll undoubtedly be cheaper.

You carry your laptop literally everywhere? It's not something you can just put on your keychain and forget about
>>51800984
If you are still out there. Aren't you only able to boot into an OS or livecd at one time or are you able to choose from the flash drive which to boot ? Or load I guess.
>>51798893
I have a 64gb one that I use to carry my files around to and from class. One day I unknowingly dropped it along with my keys in a puddle and left it sitting there. It still worked fine when I found it again about 4 hours later. Based PNY

>>51810244
>implying a 32-64gb flashdrive isn't worth the cost
I got a 32gb Kingston 3.0 for 12 dollars on amazon. Besides, there are more uses for a flashdrive than just storing files.
Shit like having recovery tools and cleaning tools in case you need to fix somebody's computer, or to clean malware out without having to ssh into your server, which would waste all your time.
Also, it's easier to put a full linux distro on a usb and use it to troubleshoot and fix issues that you otherwise wouldn't be able to do on a system that is so fucked beyond repair.
Why can I never get a flash drive to last more than a year?
I bought a Corsair Voyager 64GB and that only lasted like 6 months.
What the fuck.
>>51810968
>Shit like having recovery tools and cleaning tools
I haven't had to boot into recovery or install an in ages, but in the event that I do, I normally just grab an old laptop drive and plug it in via esata to do that.
>in case you need to fix somebody's computer, or to clean malware
I don't have time to fix other peoples' computers. I tell my family to go to the local repair place when their tech breaks so that some entry level slave can fix it for them, and my gf has a mac and isn't tech retarded.
>>51810244
good luck using that bandwidth on the event you or your server are offline
>>51811094
Good job, but not everyone has an old laptop drive that they carry around. It'd be easier to use a flash drive.
>I don't have time
but you have time to get remote access to your server through someone else's LAN, when you could just use a flash drive? I wouldn't fix my family's shit either, unless I was going to get something out of it.
That still doesn't defeat the argument for using a flash drive.

>>51811230
>but you have time to get remote access to your server through someone else's LAN, when you could just use a flash drive?sshfs user@myserver:/datastore/ /mnt/remote/is infinitely easier than having to find the shit I want to copy over, copying over the files I need, making sure everything already on the flashdrive is up to date, and then making sure that I have all the files that I need and am not missing anything.
>I wouldn't fix my family's shit either
Then why are you arguing it as a reason for why you would use a flashdrive? Sure, I'll admit a flashdrive is handy if you're a teenager working at geeksquad or something, but otherwise, it's just more of a hassle than anything.
>>51811148
I haven't had downtime on my server in over a year. Sounds like you just suck at using technology, bud.
>>51811394
You do realize you don't have to copy the files over once they're on the drive, right? You can use them FROM the drive. I mean, I have a flash drive that I used as a LiberKey, and that's all I use that one for.
I didn't argue it as a reason to use a flash drive. I said people. As in people who aren't my family. As in, people who are going to pay me to fix their bullshit. Next time, use some reading comprehension.

I'm not the guy, but I can pretty much definitively say no. If anything, the metal drive would cool down faster than the plastic one, but tiny flash drives generally produce an unnoticeable amount of heat anyway.
