The D: is a CD-ROM. Geez!
Dang whippersnappers.
Nothing like the beauty of windows having a modern UI with a hard drive icon drawn by some intern in 1998
If it makes you feel any better the intern got hired full-time.
The best part about this is that the keyboard company likely followed tutorials for building their device drivers and never substituted the default image (which is a fictitious company called Fabrikam):
And someone is now selling attire under the Fabrikam name with just the page title as “Microsoft”

No, CD-ROM is
/dev/sr0Only correct answer, I don’t know what this whole letter business is… Dang kids
Bah! This is clearly a windows meme! Take it back to c/linux!
(I’m over there too)
No, CD-ROM is
/cdromYou probably meant /dev/cdrom which as far as I know is just a link to CD-ROM drive. In case of SATA and SCSI drives it links to /dev/sr(number) and in case of IDE drive to /dev/hd(letter).
When I started using Linux in 2004, /cdrom was the mount point for CD/DVD drives on Debian.
Debian is weird
Yeah, but I have nothing against Debian. At the time, my family was on dialup, so being able to order the entire apt repo on 7 CDs was very handy. Back then, the default kernel didn’t include sound drivers… fun times!
I recently returned to Debian (unstable) on my Linux laptop and it’s been nice.
Thats the dvd rom
CDs nuts
Gottemmm
Omg… it depends on your input port grandpa! Please take your pills your saying that stuff again!
I like my partners like I like my filesystems.
FAT and 32.
Well, I’m glad its 32, and not the ones previous
I like em like I like my encryption. Old and already cracked.
My time to shine.
Your taste in partners is as bad as your taste in filesystems. Who uses FAT32 in 2023? At least use NTFS
Everything uses FAT32. ATMs, the fare machine on transit systems, the sorting system at your post office, traffic lights, nuclear power control systems. Literally everything that isn’t a Unix, MacOS, or a Windows machine uses FAT32. All that stuff has worked for decades and will probably keep working for decades more.
Like your mom.
I prefer them to be exFAT.
My mind immediately went to ext as in ext4 the filesystem
There’s only one D I recognize.
Ncc1701 no bloody, c, no bloody d, and no bloody e
A gets a pass though. All the style of the original with better looking nacelles.
I went to the comments to ask if she meant ext3 or ext4 but after a moment I figured it was just external abbreviation… Made a lot more sense 😅
Specifically, she wants to mount the D:.
And then you ask for the C: and they block you on tinder.
My aunts friends are so angry sometimes.
low tier windows users : the D
chad linux enjoyer : Basic Data Partition
If it got BTRFS, then one can simply say “pass me the butter”
This is not innuendo, I literally just want that data storage device, butterface.
She wants the /dev/sdb
She wants the D: but he’s just got a 3.5 inch floppy.
This is the real joke
Nope, she meant the ext4 drive mounted to
/mnt/homeworkEdit: spelling
She wants the scared and amazed face? I don’t get it.
Dick. the Dick. D: is usually where the external hard drive is mounted when you only have a single drive, which is usually C.
And you normally put your dick in the external hard drive?
You don’t?
One ejaculation holds around 16 GB of data, so technically…
Back in my day D was where your CD-ROM drive was mounted. Ya young whipasnappa.
And A: and B: were your floppy drives!
i use btrfs which ext is that
Ext5?
I don’t know what is wrong with my NTFS harddrive. Why do you insist on having EXT?
Because ext supports proper access rights from actual operating systems.
I GNU you were gonna say that, sick burn dude
Akshually
NTFS is also posix compatible. If - for some unimaginable reason - you want to use an NTFS drive with linux only, you can set permissions, but it will break Windows compatibility. More info here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/11840/how-do-i-use-chmod-on-an-ntfs-or-fat32-partition#74851
I can’t be certain they mean the filesystem or if she’s asking for the external drive, which for many people is the D drive. Also that it can be passed around implies it’s external too. Cause who only has one drive formatted as ext?
I don’t know what is wrong with my NTFS harddrive.
Having a NTFS partition is what’s wrong with your hard drive.
Can confirm, my NTFS hardrive broke every week on my server. Unfortunately that is my only hard drive so I cannot format it without loosing all the data.
What specifically do you mean by “broke”? File system corruption?
Yes, I have to use NTFSfix or plug it into a windows laptop, it is very annoying.
But my setup is fairly janky though. I use a external drive on my homeserver as storage drive, and because of torrenting it is almost constantly on read/write. And I use a ubuntu LTS server, so it might not be the most friendly os to use with a NTFS drive. But there is no going back now.
Are you using the NTFS3 kernel module instead of the FUSE driver?
I am not really knowledgeable about OS and kernel, I just use the default for ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
You know this one’s dated because I’m pretty sure by today’s standards having only a C: drive is quite unusual. Hard to find statistics on it but I’d wager most people have at least 2 storage devices, especially an SSD / HDD combo is pretty popular.

Would such an SSD be reliable?
An intel 2TB (which is actually Solidgim) runs under $70. I sure hope it’s reliable.
THIS IS JUST A TRIBUTE
(I don’t know, you guys said she wants the D)
