live usb - No disk space on USB boot drive

I'm fairly new to Linux, and this may just be me not realizing how it works but I've got a 16GB USB drive that I installed Ubuntu onto very recently using rufus. I haven't actually installed Ubuntu to my computer yet, so I'm just using the boot drive to do basic work because it's faster.



However, when I try to install something (for example, Steam) an error pops up saying I have 0MB left of disk space. I've looked at the boot drive with df and it says I'm only using 10% of the hard drive.



Am I doing something wrong, or is my thinking of extra space on my USB drive flawed to begin with?
