FAT is good if you don't plan to use it for a large device or storing large files: it's simple and easy to recover if something goes wrong. Doesn't play great with Linux as permissions […]

Biros were banned when I was at school too, years ago, but weirdly, fancy ballpoints weren't, even though they're the same thing underneath! We were mostly told to use those […]

Busybox init may be your friend here...

I have a machine that boots Linux off a FAT32 HDD! It creates a root filesystem entirely in RAM, though, so it's basically cheating for this purpose...

@iSabreman
Fun fact: while Apple devices are more popular in the UK, worldwide they're the underdog. Not supporting Android is stupid for all but the most parochial companies...

Not entirely stripes. The intersex flag is a circle, isn't it?

I was going to make a "Come Outside" pun, but in order to ensure I got bits right I went onto Wikipedia, ended up sidetracked reading episode synopses and now it's half an hour or so later […]

@ajroach42 Him. Singular they has a long tradition in English literature. Jane Austen was an example of a user of it, but there were many more. (Mind you, she also used "sennight" to mean a […]

Looks very much like that Doctor Who episode with the starship Great Britain...

"Better for the planet" yet in shrink-wrapped plastic? If you can get meat from the deli counter in paper and vegan stuff is less likely to go off than real meat, why do they still […]

I don't know about a library, but I've been copying and pasting the same winapi calls for that for a while...?

Surely that's not legal under GDPR!

Better than my animation skills, though there's a frame or two in the video about a second in where the pupil of the right eye is in front of the nose...

@ScientistRebellion Thought I ought to let you know that the link to "The Science" in your website footer goes only to the Mexican version of your website, not the normal one...
@cindyweinstein I misread that as "hitting on" and was thoroughly confused...
