You know how films and TV show different, fake UIs when a character works on a computer? GUIs and their elements are copyrighted.

"eject" is a Linux command which attempts to safely disconnect removable media.

TFA doesn't mention filesystems at all, sort of jumps in where we find the block device. Things could become messy if the device were mounted while the copy is attempted.

Around 2015, I authored my résumé in LibreOffice, and I sprinkled in an assortment of bullet points. Some were indented. I used open squares, filled squares, open and filled circles, right-arrows, stars, etc.

I brought it into an employment center for critique, and my mentor informed me that those shapes all had different meanings and functions. It was a wake-up call for me.

I am not a UX/UI designer, so my experience with the UI elements in applications had been intuitive, and moreover, disconnected from the activity of authoring a non-interactive document.

So I believe that these UI features were imitating paper-based forms. Those ovals or circles on Scantron sheets: you'd better not fill in more than one per line! And being named "radio buttons": yes, if you pressed "AM" then the "FM" button popped out. If you had six presets in a car--wait a minute, those were oblong...

For removable media, I believe that finishing up with "eject" would be the safest way to ensure that all writes were committed to the hardware.

Speaking of managing at scale and splitting well:

  the reverse lookup domain name corresponding to the address

       4321:0:1:2:3:4:567:89ab

   would be

   b.a.9.8.7.6.5.0.4.0.0.0.3.0.0.0.2.0.0.0.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1.2.3.4.IP6.
                                                                  ARPA.
