I understand that NTFS has its own case folding table which is written once when the volume is formatted. This does seem to have stood the test of time and enormous usage so maybe it is not such a poor idea.

That game is a labor of love by someone - I spent weeks playing it. So much fun solving puzzles and learning at the same time. If I had a criticism is that I'm not sure much has stuck with me.

What if your employer did the same as Twitter etc and declared working from home was allowed forever. Could you imagine moving somewhere you’d love to be - with excellent internet - finding new friends there and being happier than other situation?

I have a couple single friends in your position who were getting dangerously lonely. They got a cat in one case dog in the other and it hasn’t fixed anything but it’s given them a reason to get outside and a bit more of something alive in their life
