What is the point of this?

 

dd is one of the easiest commands possible and you just add a quick status=progress on to the command.

I'm not sure using this command is ideal if you are the user who needs a gui. Its a relatively dangerous command if you are a newb so its probably better to learn and understand what you are doing from the terminal.

 

Unless you are just showing off in which case good job I guess.
