Is this one of the 'rubbery' feeling ones? I bought one of these many years ago with a considerably smaller capacity and the grippy feeling of these drives is unforgettable. These are going to be collectors items.

@intromatt There are other issues in my life I don't rant about here that you certainly wouldn't like to have tho

Skayo85667yAll we got from school is a Raspberry Pi 3 and a NodeMCU (Got 4 of them)
😁
Sometimes school is actually pretty nice! -
@Skayo The Elektrotechnik part of my school actually gets a Raspberry Pi, too, but heh, I've got two already so whatever.

Yeah I'm in Elektronik und technische Informatik. Pretty cool.
FYI I thought that I would learn more than in Informatik, that's why I chose it.
I think it was a better decision! -
@approxhuman For the USB? Nothing. The yearly fee for getting school books and shit is 50€ tho.
-
@CozyPlanes We pay a fee of 50€ at the start of each school year so getting at least a USB stick is nice, huh?

HRT-71316037y@filthyranter @Skayo You guys are really lucky, I go to a private school that costs a fortune every year, yet we never got anything like at least a raspberry pi and don't even have CS classes

@ParkCity When the school year's over. Meanwhile we need it for a subject in school.

(The exact opposite of a rant, yay)
My school gave everyone in my class (and the two other 10th-grade CS classes) these neat 64GB USB sticks.
They are our property (paid by our fee every student has to pay every year so the school can afford paper for the printers, school books, and other materials such as USB sticks for 10th graders), but we have to keep some files for a lesson on the root of the USB (currently ~900MB).
That's not an issue, personal files go in my _Personal folder anyway.
Of course, I wanted to VeraCrypt all my USB drives I use at school, but since I don't have admin rights at our school and they use Windows 10, I just used BitLocker. Good enough, the only thing I want to achieve with encryption is other students being unable to read data off a lost drive (such as my _Personal data)
Also this stick is hella fast even with BitLocker enabled, 200 MB/s (minus 13 MB/s with enabled BitLocker) sequential r/w speed according to CrystalDiskMark.
