yeah, not sure what the strategy is, why do they look like they want to paywall everything?

The ability to create ReFS volumes was removed in Windows 10's 2017 Fall Creators Update for all editions except Enterprise and Pro for Workstations.

speaking of pointer stuff, behold: QString.init(string:)

extension QString {
  public init(string: String?) {
    #if os(macOS)
      self = QString.fromNSString(string)
    #else
      guard let string else {
        self = QString()
        return
      }

      self = string.withCString(encodedAs: UTF16.self) { data in
        QString(
          UnsafeRawPointer(data).bindMemory(to: QChar.self, capacity: string.utf16.count),
          qsizetype(string.utf16.count))
      }
    #endif
  }
}
