@pernia@cum.salon @phnt@fluffytail.org @VD15@pl.valkyrie.world technically you can make your own human operated filesystem with only dd. dd if=video.mp4 of=/dev/sdb bs=1M seek=1024 count=100 will put the file 1024MB into the drive, then write that down in a notebook or something along with the number of 1M blocks it needs (100 in example) Then you can "stream" it from the disk later by doing: dd if=/dev/sdb bs=1M seek=1024 count=100 | mpv - This is just how people used to operate tape drives back in the day, although they'd typically put it into a .tar before writing it to the medium (Tape ARchive) As long as you can get a file output to stdout from some application, you can shit it straight to disk using ">", alternatively "| dd" if you want some extra control.
