I DO NOT WEAR DENIM JEANS! I resent that accusation!

I bet you're one of these people that wants every .zip or .tar.gz to have a superfluous <testingstuffdontlook>extra root folder inside.
-
If I need to make a folder in order to extract the contents of the archive, as opposed to simply dragging the folder inside the archive out, yes, that is a nuisance.

I know better than to expect any modicum of sanity from this crazy world.

Status: wrangling a shitty UI in JavaScript. I hate JavaScript and it doesn't help that I'm not especially happy using it, so the whole JS bit I'm working on feels slapdash which makes me doubly annoyed.

Does anyone here by any chance have a Yahoo account (that has received at least 2 emails)? Can you help me verify something?
- Open yahoo mail
- Search mail for "eBay"
That's it. I have a Yahoo Mail account I still use. I was trying to find a certain email from eBay, but searching "eBay" does nothing. No search, no error message, it's as if I couldn't press enter. Other words work fine, tested on 3 different browsers.

79F, sunny. pool again.

1. Open yahoo mail
2. Search mail for "eBay"Confirmed. Same behaviour for
amazon
,ebay.com
and a few others.View source:
,"searchSuggestionsEntities":{"ebay":{"id":"ebay","displayName":"eBay","matchNames":["ebay","ebay.com","ebay.com, inc."]},"amazon":{"id":"amazon","displayName":"Amazon","matchNames":["amazon","amazon.com","amazon.com, inc"]}
Adding a further search term avoids this bit of code.

It's not that big of a deal. if = input file, data is inputted here, of = outsource file, where the data's coming from. I just remember these and the rest is easy.

How can you tell
/dev/sdc
is mounted from the information provided in @cartman82's post?o_O
-
bs=32M
I just had to copy a 512GB hard disk and used "bs=1M". I wonder which one is faster (but I'm not going to copy the disk again to find out).
-

I wasn’t. I was doing a general remark about how these commands are easy to mistype (I’ve already messed up*), and that disallowing writes on a mounted partition (like OS X does IIRC) could be an easy way to prevent some stupid mistakes.
* In fairness, when I messed up, I was using a machine whose internal SCSI drive was so slow, its device identifier could change between
sda
andsdb
if a USB key was plugged in at boot time.
-
I don't think that would help me, as I'm cloning the entire drive (partition table included).
