animal-hash··on Linux tool to show progress for cp, mv, dd
It's also a quick and dirty tool for wiping out partition headers on a disk.
animal-hash··on Linux tool to show progress for cp, mv, dd
There's also dd status

       status=LEVEL
              The LEVEL of information to print to stderr; 'none'
              suppresses everything but error messages, 'noxfer'
              suppresses the final transfer statistics, 'progress' shows
              periodic transfer statistics


and pv

    pv - monitor the progress of data through a pipe

So with pv, you can do something like

    dd if=/dev/zero count=2 bs=512 | pv | dd of=/dev/null
to visualize your dd progress.

The app wants you to mindlessly click through Google's access permissions without a second thought as to the impact of your actions.

Flashy application with no contact information or legitimacy trying to access data. Your alarm bells should be going off at that point.

DO NOT GIVE THIS ACCESS TO YOUR WORK EMAIL! DO YOU NOT GIVE THIS ACCESS TO YOUR WORK EMAIL!

There is no source code, and it gets READ access to your meetings!

Please do not make the error and give a non-vetted source access to your PRIVATE data!

animal-hash··on Sun: The Network Is the Computer
"The Sun-1 workstation used a Motorola 68000 CPU at 10MHz. This was paired with an in-house designed MMU. It had 256K zero wait state memory with parity, and 32K EPROM memory."

I like how these specs are described as if it was a computer in a Fast and Furious action flic
