Black Cat Reads Partition Struct

struct pit_entry { u32 reserved[4]; u32 filesys; /* if this is gpt entry */ u32 blkstart; /* overrided, start lba */ u32 blknumb; /* size as block */ u32 lun; /* partition # */ u32 reserved1; char name[32]; /* partition name */ u32 reserved2[8]; char option[32]; /* only for indication of 'remained' */ } __attribute__(((packed)); struct pit_info { u32 magic; /* to check integrity */ u32 count; /* a number of partitions */ u32 reserved[5]; struct pit_entry pte[PIT_MAX_PART_NUM]; } __attribute__(((packed));

A short video shows a black cat staring directly at the camera while a large C-style data structure definition covers the screen. The joke treats the cat’s intense, unreadable stare as if it were trying to understand complicated partition-table code, making it a reaction to confusing technical information or an overwhelming programming task.
