Google, Bing, and a plethora of others.

Also: SpotNet (with e.g. SpotWeb as a client)

What you suggest sounds a lot like the “Briefcase” that was in Windows 9x. I don’t know of something similar, especially not something integrated into Linux.

The easiest way might be to setup SyncThing to share all of your different folders and then subscribe to those you need on your laptop. Just be aware that if you delete a file on your laptop it will also be deleted on your desktop on the next sync. Unsubscribe from the folder first before freeing up the disk space.

Check out the Victorinox @work series - so you can have your USB and screwdrivers always with you.

Put your SSD into this case and enjoy proper CD/DVD/BluRay emulation, multiple VHDs and much more.

EDIT: Not an ad, @Okus@lemmy.dbzer0.com . Just the only case that has all these features. And it’s no affiliate link, so I don’t even get anything if somebody clicks on it.

What makes you think there’s no way of updating the firmware? Also, they could be made so that there’s a simple API (like a serial device exposed via USB) and apps for Win/macOS/Linux to update the label. But I guess the demand was never there.

Same here. Like “Cold! Look elsewhere…” 🤣

It’s a shame these never took off. I’d love for my various USB drives to have displays that show their labels and maybe even contents.

What’s the big selling point compared to ranger, nnn, yazi or broot?

Rather use dd_rescue as it’ll retry if it encounters any reading issue.

This! And I’d probably add par2 parity files - just in case some bitrot happens.

And it has repair tools that actually work and can make the filesystem usable again.

Back in the days we had these things. But I doubt this would work with USB-C adapters and a Steam Deck.

Part of the experience to me is reading all the comments and leaving my 2¢. So I’m using the Share → Embed workaround so far.

Most modern Intel chipsets support “Dual Role Device” (DRD) where they can act as host or client as needed.

What’s next? Do they maybe also want landlords to cancel renting agreements over this? Supermarkets to not sell to these people?

Reminds me of the CardPuter.

Pretty much, I think. I have it running on a Raspberry Pi 4 with docker-compose:

At least in Germany, many of these copyright claims have no real legal grounds and wouldn’t hold up in an actual trial. All cases I’ve read into so far ended with a settlement - as the private person was too afraid of even more legal fees. Or were dropped completely after a while (full of empty threats) if the people never engaged with the other party.
