Funnily enough, I only had corrupt USBs with windows >inb4 you're using it as a tard
As you guess (Passing PS2 games to USB to play at OPL. Plugging and unplugging it twice a minute)
>Funnily enough, I only had corrupt USBs with windows
Eh, default Linux behavior tends to be to write to (RAM) file system cache first. If you unplug the USB drive before the cache was written to the USB drive, the drive will have broken files or even a broken file system.
If it was the filesystem that broke up I wouldn't care, I had a backup.. I believe it was more a hardware thing than a software one since it started to corrupt 3 minutes after reformatting it.
Windows used to have that as the default behaviour as well but they changed it at some point due to way too many people unplugging their drives without safe eject
I wanna say it was changed in an XP update but I could be wrong

I can believe it
last time I had experienced file corruption due to not using safe removal was on a Windows 2000 system; on XP it luckily never happened

It was but it still corrupted the FS on 7. FAT32, so yeah, but it was the default even in the early 7 days because no one bothered w/exfat on XP. "Yeah just install that CAB, it's safe".
Reads (medium to memory) are always synchronous, how else would you do it?

You expect them to get cached. For example, when you access files in a directory, the directory is read only once. With sync access, it might not get cached and could be exponentially slower. But I don't know if it's really implemented like this.
Holy heckin epic poggers! Here's your gigaestrogen latte, kind stranger
This commad actually could work, except it's the wrong directory. You need to do sudo rm -fr ~/ . And BE SURE not to flip -fr and -rf, one deletes, the other recovers.

My teacher with cyber security background unplugs his USB drive without unmounting when he uses it on a windows machine. Why is that? Is there a secret arcane knowledge we mere commoners are privy to?
does he use linux daily, and "windows machine" only sometimes when forced to?
yes: he is used to superiority of linux
no: he is simply an incompetent moron

You can mount with synchronous writes in linux as well.
>synchronous writes
Which option is that? I only know "sync" which as far as I know makes reads synchronous too, slow as shit.

i would be laughing at this normally, but it once happened to me and its not fricking funny
once again the /free/trannies on suicide watch with their inferior shitty patchwork product
>on windows, usb drive is corrupt, windows bluescreens
>on linux, usb drive is corrupt unless you waited long enough for auto-sync to kick in
also on linux just run `sync` after copying files and you are good, without unmounting.
Only for vfat, exfat and ext234. With btrfs, xfs, reiser, bcachefs and f2fs this will 100% eat your data.
>xfs
The rest is a meme but what about XFS?
what? are you moronic?
No it isn't, you were bragging 3 posts ago about not having used windows since windows 98, and we can tell
This is what stopped me from using linux seriously
I pulled it out after it stopped blinking because it wasnt getting recognized to eject, and then all my shit was a 64gb RAW volume
Should 'of typed sync, simple AS.
it's the exact opposite for me, I guess it's just a matter of luck

Linux way of doing it:

It's in my h*entai folder, therefore it is h*entai.
someone unplugged a flash drive before safely removing it first
it wasn't safely inserted in the first place so I don't think it really matters
I put it in her.

ever heard of this thing called cloud grandpa?
When someone else's computer goes down with your data when you need it, what you gonna do?
meds
you trust your pc more than AWS? lol
>not being less tech illiterate than hacker-targeted pajeet teams means you need meds
I trust my PC more than my internet connection.
unfortunately I was on linux
how do I fix it?
sudo rm -fr /

Sorry bud. Next time I'll try not to make a mess and leave it in.

At last, I truly see.
All of that disgusting orc hentai content is a predictive programming/psyop to condition humans IRL to have sex with de facto orcs (Black folk).
>corrupts all your files
>the only hentai in existence to have exactly my fetish
It's just not fair...
Your fetish is disgusting

Is it a meme?
why are you adding spaces after your quote arrows?
Smart move. Just for that I won't add anything to your file.
>Error: safe removal failed: drive still in use
what a shit thread, anon
you should be ashamed of yourself
