NTFS works on all platforms: with VFAT, it's the lowest common denominator between Windows, Linux, Mac (even if was read-only on mac the last time I checked) and far more resistant to damage than ExFAT. Like you, I also hate grub and p

I don't get it. Can you explain me why it is, and what the emojis represent? Do you have the projection of some binary string in the unicode emoji space? (then you'd need to chunk it and possibly use many emojis)
