Alright. This sounds like a permissions issue. The tool you used is quite possibly mounting the drive using your user's umask. Provided it directly modifies the fstab, you can open it with a text editor and see what options it set.
the "disks" program modifies the fstab. It asked for my password to edit fstab. I looked at fstab afterwards and it had the SD card on it mounting at /usr/bin
Here is the whole fstab:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# / was on /dev/sdb1 during installation
UUID=05603c3f-3147-46c9-92e1-5088b6b1c341 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
# swap was on /dev/sdb5 during installation
UUID=5f7711ec-d363-4416-b356-d2c5736db172 none swap sw 0 0
#microSD
UUID=14A520FD16D5492F /usr/bin ntfs nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show,noauto 0 0
Manually change the options after "ntfs" to the ones from the first line and see if that helps.
What does that do?

Also, I managed to get my free microSD reader to work. I will see if I can boot from the SD using it.
That number determines the order of filesystem checks to be performed upon boot. 0 is disabled, 1 is for the first partition to be checked, which should be your root partition, and 2 is for everything after the main partition. In this case, it doesn't really matter if it's a 1 or 2.
I will try both just in case. Or, I might install to my SD. (If it is bootable using my USB reader)
WOW! It works! Now, the SD mounts at startup. I just have a few issues. First of all, it gives me a popup saying that something with the Bluetooth isn't working. (I don't have a Bluetooth card.)
@Joom , I finally figured it out. I reinstalled Ubuntu MATE and I put the swap partition on a different USB drive. Now I have an extra 2.6GB on my normal USB drive. I installed Steam and now I get this error. How do I fix it?

Removed unworking solution... still need help.

And this will install what exactly?

Package "fglrx" has no installation candidate.

There's no fglrx anymore, sigh, it seems I have to keep pointing that out.
sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-dri:i386
And if that doesn't work:
find $HOME/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/*/usr/lib/ \( -name "libstdc++.so.6" -o -name "libgpg-error.so.0" -o -name "libxcb.so.1" -o -name "libgcc_s.so.1" \) -exec mv "{}" "{}.bak" \; -print
As seen here.

@Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons. -
@
SylverReZ:
Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.

Man, that's beyond my brain
I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though -
@
SylverReZ:
@Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.+1
-
@
SylverReZ:
Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.

Maximumbeans:
Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha

@
SylverReZ:
@Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.+1
