Maybe look into autofs which will mount only when you choose to access the drives and then unmount on idle. Could be simpler then trying to react to network status.

That’s good. There are also editors that can run it for you and highlight the issues whilst you type, neovim being one.

$() for me, to quote from

https://www.shellcheck.net/wiki/SC2006

Backtick command substitution `...` is legacy syntax with several issues.

1. It has a series of undefined behaviors related to quoting in POSIX.
2. It imposes a custom escaping mode with surprising results.
3. It’s exceptionally hard to nest.

$(...) command substitution has none of these problems, and is therefore strongly encouraged.

I guess so, the readme states:

The game Cave Story was released in 2004 and made available in the freeware version after more than five years in development…

It is good, a nice mix of story and action I think plus the (unique?) concept of your owl carrying characters who have their own abilities is interesting. The puzzles are pretty simple it’s mostly about the combat though there’s also a little bit of stealth needed at times.

Difficulty does ramp up quite fast, or at least compared to something like Mario Wonder but Owlboy is a shorter game so I guess that’s to be expected. The pixel art is luscious and there are some memorable scenes. In reviews I think it ranges from 70-90% and I’d give it 80+ for sure.

If you have a linux machine Cave Story is also freely available via flatpak: https://flathub.org/en/apps/com.gitlab.coringao.cavestory-nx

Owlboy, continuing my slow progress. Reminds me of Cave Story a bit.

Done this for my partner - usb goes in to boot to Linux, take it out to boot back to pre-existing Windows, really simple. Fedora will install to usb no problem. Windows can’t screw up this way either, bit safer then using same drive. Speed has not been a problem.
