How can I run Linux off of a flash drive without killing it with constant writes? Is there a distro that's made with this in mind?

Goddamn it Sup Forums pull yourself away from your anime wallpaper generals for a second

Holy shit, it's on every distro's wiki ever. kys

there's a bunch of things you can do, such as setting a large commit value on its filesystem mounts (specifies a max amount of time writes can be buffered in cache)

Get an USB3 flashdrive, those work internally like SSDs

pretty sure Kali Linux has this in mind, mostly for privacy reasons it runs very well from flash drive. Hell, you can even have persistance in the live USB: offensive-security.com/kali-linux/kali-encrypted-usb-persistence/

How poor are you to not afford a $10 flash drive every year IF that.

You're not going to kill a flash drive made in the past 5 years.

puppy Linux will run entirely in ram after being loaded initially off of the usb

Did last year with Bunsen labs installed on a sandisk cruzer
This sounds perfect thanks
