[03:31] good morning === JanC is now known as Guest37942 === JanC_ is now known as JanC === akem__ is now known as akem [06:34] good morning [07:01] Heya :) [15:29] My persistence Lubuntu USB stick is nice :) I installed a bunch of apps and i have a storage partition on the stick too, that i can read on Windows too apparently, but i didn't tested on Win. [15:29] It's just a bit slower to start, but then it's fine. [16:04] if it's not a decent brand it might not last for long :) [16:08] It's a nice aluminium Kingston one :) [16:10] Data traveler or something. I like it. Better than smaller ones, cause i can grasp it better :P [16:10] I will 'dd' it to a an image file so i can just dump it back to another stick if it fail. [16:11] Only problem is that 32 GB sticks don't always have the same capacity, my other 32 GB is smaller than this one...But i can still get a 64 GB. [16:12] Maybe resizing the data partition would work, not sure...I'll see in time if i ever got in this situation. [16:30] No more cola daemon in here? :) [16:30] I'm on heavy lemonade regime theses days. Got some tasty lemon sirup. Not too much sugar, just how i like. With sodastream you know. [16:57] dd's a waste of writes due to the empty space being written [16:57] heh his heavy schedule must be keeping him away from us ;) [17:07] Yeah, i know but it's only 32 GB, and this way i have a 1:1 copy. [17:10] that could be achieved with clonezilla without writing the empty space [17:17] I see, yeah there are probably better ways. But i'll stick to 'dd' anyway :P [17:26] just don't give a hoot at the downsides eh? that's a disappointing approach [17:26] and yeah maybe taking 500MB off the end of partitions would make it fit across a broad range of flash drives easier [18:02] iirc ddrescue can also skip unused space [18:06] ja think so [20:36] Somebody set up us the womb. [20:36] OOps. :P [20:46] ok, but i don't think you wanna grow anything in it!
