For all things Windows.
What about the equally arbitrary limit on filepath lengths?
Windows happily lets you save files in
C:\horribly\long\convoluted\folder\structure\with\filenames\like\The_Entire_Subject_Line_Of_An_Email_By_Default_When_You_Save_It_Locally.eml
But when you try to copy or move that file with the explorer later, it throws an error.
My whole digital experience would have been a lot different if it wasn't for this. I would want to have files structured into clearly named files and folders, but no, sooner or later it bites you if try to work around it.
Want to migrate an SMB share from one storage array to another using file tools? Haha Linux mount it and use rsync or else, loser.
Unrelated but is the Verge even a good or trustworthy source for tech news? Maybe I’m still jaded by their build a PC tutorial
Probably depends on the topic / writer. I generally only read their news articles and not their tutorials or guides. I like that they usually link their sources and I can follow up on those. I probably trust Ars Technica more than the Verge though.
Great answer, thank you
I wonder if this was to attempt to force people to use exFAT instead.
