Is that an iOS app? I've searched and found references to "control center" for multiple OS. I have no idea what phone or OS is shown in the picture and can't guess by the comments, because I don't know how many meta levels of snark are involved!

I always knew them as cheesybobs as a kid, and only realised they were the same thing as "wood louse" or whatever when I grew up.

"Cheesy bug" in parts of the UK? Where I grew up that's close. They were "Cheesybobs" to everyone I knew.

When I was at school, the kids would say, "my dad's shed is bigger than your dad's shed". But that was a long time ago, and we each had a child's view of the world. Most of us grew up.

This is what my old housemate did, starting in the 90s. Worked out quite well for him. My dad used went round the world with the navy in the 50s and used to talk about how some other cultures did stuff like this.
