You mean almost everyone?
Most people I know call it a "USB flash drive."
Literally never heard anyone call it that. Must be regional differences.
USB Stick.

>"He bro do you have a usb?"
Is this really weird
I would assume they meant micro USB cable.
in my case almost everyone calls this a samsung cable
>Have a phone with USB-c
>Need a cable to charge
>Ask if someone has a USB-c cable
>Get asked "is it for an android?"
>Yes
>They hand me that instead.
It's nice and all that they're willing to lend me their charger, but it would be even nicer if people understood general technology terms. It's 2018. They're literally teaching coding in kindergarten classrooms. Come on folks.
It's a damn flash drive
It's a zip drive
I all it USB stick
Problem?
i remember encountering this the first time. it triggered me to the point i had to explain it not even once but multiple times to get it through
>computer
there are people who say this?
It's a portable winchester.

>not calling it an universal serial bus compliant electronic solid-state non-volatile mass storage device that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed
>They're literally teaching coding in kindergarten classrooms.
No they don't.
In fact they are teaching less programming today than they did 20 years ago.
People are no longer interested in knowing how computers work, in the same way people don't care how their car engine works.
>internet
That's a pocket cloud drive.
Fuck. This.
>my computer isn’t working
Get to the user to find out the computer is fine. Dumb bitch just had her monitor off. Dumbasses like that don’t deserve a job.
>Professors
>Thumb Drive
Only ever heard it like that from them. Highschool teachers when I was in highschool too. I just call it a flash drive.
>Electronic
>Electrically
Oof, redundant
But what about all that "Learn to Kode" shit they were/are pushing all the time?
>pendrive
What's with the anti-USB flash drive meme? They are cheap as chips, fast and ensure backups independent of a cloud.
Then you're fucking autistic.
Jump drive.
It's how you upload the pictures to your comp.
Screensaver.

In Mexico they're very commonly called "memoria usb"
I have never heard people call it anything else.
idiot, it's a portable file thumb

This.
I had a "computer information systems" teacher that called desktop computers "CPUs"
>wifi
>CPU
>wifi cables
I get a lot of old people who call their Computer a Modem.
I have never understood how that happened.
"computer"
They think CPU stands for ComPUter.
>memory
I ran my own PC repair biz for a few years in the 1990s-2000s. A lot of people would bring in their "computer" for us to work on. 2 out of 5 times this is what we got.
I've literally never heard anyone refer to it as just "USB", but then again I'm not an amerishit.
no I would assume what was meant
Dongle

Where's "Disk on key"?
Manufacturers do this too, though I think they mean in the context of flash memory. Still, it's irritating to go to a tech website and see "32GB memory" for smartphones.
ZIP DISKETTE
Remember, all computer and networking activity is conducted through the monitor. If you're ever getting hacked, just unplug your monitor.

wew lad, that scene. those t. brainlet normalfags figuring out "hacking".
I think most of the general populace just thinks 32gb > the number for storing things > memory (like human brain storage)

How did people react being told that this is just the monitor?
They tend to be unreliable, but that's not the point of this thread.

It's literally just moving boxes in a GUI, no actual programming involved.
I live/work in Germany and am pretty content with how people name things.
USB stick, USB mini and micro. USB C, people usually know that the blue usb port is faster.
They also understand the network drive is on a server.
A huge problem is that people generally don't understand what the file explorer is. They start applications and open files from there. Actual file management outside the user folder is rarely seen.

I have a lecturer that calls it a datastick.
I call it a usb stick
Zip disquette
This, I have to bring my charger everywhere because Iphone fags don't understand the difference and Android normies call it an s8 charger
>warp drive
it's for warping your files between computers
Not them, but we had keyboard/computer classes in elementary school and that was only like, 15 years ago. And typing classes/sessions was a thing up until middle school.
I assumed they still have at least that much, its not "coding" but I wouldn't expect kids to be able to do most of even basic coding, and honestly there's less of a reason for 99.99% of people to know coding than for them to know history.
do you have to use so many durn curse words?
You'd be surprised how pervasive this is not just with desktop and mobile device users, but across entire industries like healthcare. I did tech support for many years for medical offices and billing services, large offices employing thousands of users and hundreds of thousands of dollars in financial transactions every month and 90% of the time, whenever someone's server would get fried, HDD would fail, or some other category sev 1, whenever I'd try to get them back up and running, they didn't know their login or password because they saved it to their browser. Very rarely would anybody have it physically written down or saved in a file cabinet anywhere. It all trickles down too; the doctors and hospital administrators would chew out the staff and then the staff would chew us for not knowing their confidential credentials.

Well, they're half right.
I have this monitor. It hurts

Most people I know call it pendrive.

So, It is
1. Central, beacuse not peripheral
2. Processing since it is processing data
3. Unit, since it can be replaced.
WTF wrong with that? How do you call Food processor?
It's quite sad how common this is.
Password and account managers were a mistake.
Convenience != good. All it has done is cause insanely high numbers of issues since these things became more common. The economic overhead is probably in the billions of dollars in lost productivity because some cunt forgot their password.
23 year old greasy fat fuck that can't have fun: the person: the board game
Food = CPU
1. Central, because you put food in the middle of your plate.
2. Processing, because you’ll process the food using your organs to gather energy.
3. Unit, because food can be measured in units like how much energy it’ll give you as well the weight in grammes.
This Jen, is the internet.
