   someone has got to create a polyglot filesystem. a filesystem that can be read by two completely different filesystem drivers

     @mothcompute Well if it's read-only, there's tons of tar implementations.

     no one ever writes to filesystems so this is okay

     @lanodan a lot of those are meant to be compatible though. it has to be something peculiar and hacky or its not as fun

     @mothcompute Well… in theory yes, in practice, not so great: https://dev.gentoo.org/~mgorny/articles/portability-of-tar-features.html

     @lanodan i mean. i feel like the spirit of the idea is lost if the driver (i guess extractor in this case) just supports multiple codecs

     @mothcompute codec thing makes me wonder… is mkv enough of a filesystem?

     @lanodan only tangentially related but thats given me a really bad idea. could an s3m and a fat12 filesystem overlap

     @lanodan update probably not. but it would be a really good bit nonetheless to have a disk image that is also just kind of a normal file

     @lanodan oh you know what. a 31 instrument mod and an s3m probably could overlap
