Fengjiahe Formation
The Fengjiahe Formation is a geological formation in China. It dates back to the Early Jurassic.[1] The formation is up to 1500 metres thick and consists of "purple-red mudstone and argillaceous siltstone interbedded with gray-green and yellow-green quartz sandstone and feldspathic quartz sandstone"[2]

gollark: > can i reverse engineer potatOSYep!> and make my own omnidiskNope!
gollark: Or I guess you could compile your whole thing including the license verification to bytecode.
gollark: <@154361670188138496> I mean, kind of. Thing is, OmniDisks\™ are basically only useful for getting around PotatOS sandboxing. So if they can't do that the disk is useless.This sort of "only useful in an environment you fully control" sandboxing is the only workable sort.
gollark: It also contains valid disk IDs for each UUID and disk IDs are unique to each disk and unspoofable.
gollark: The program *on* the disks downloads a license info JSON from the interweb when it runs. This contains the features each UUID is allowed to use.
