I did the same. Nope, not a joke.

+100 for Lyrion. I have been running it for over 20 years from back in the slimserver days. I also was a huge iPeng app fan until I installed the newer "Material Skin" plugin. If you have not used it yet, I highly recommend you check it out. I use the HTML5 interface full time over the iPeng app on my mobile for controlling the house/music selection. Also the "AirPlay Bridge" and "Chromecast bridge" plugins allow me to use my homepod devices/AppleTV's and Google Nest Hub devices as speakers which expanded my audio experience. There is also a host of ESP32 dac+amp devices and raspberry pi devices that you can use a players, its endless!

This is great! Fantastic work. You should port a game like this to steamdeck, it would be a huge hit!

I have a Windows 10 machine for one thing only -- iRacing. For all other gaming needs I happily use my Steam Deck thanks to the amazing support from Steam.

I would happily pay MS for an OS that was zero bloat and only included the core functionality to support sim racing and the 3rd party hardware.

Great work, I like this a lot. Some feedback:

- It would be great to have the options of having tabs so that I could group my notes into a Math specific tab, or raw notes, code, etc.

- Another option to the above tabs would be to sort the blocks by type (grouping all the Math at the top for example).

- Having the ability to then save each block into a separate file.

Amazing photo. At the end of the Netflix documentary about JWST "Unknown: Cosmic Time Machine" they state the telescope data would be available for everyone to use. Is that actually true, or did they mean just these full res images?

I would recommend starting with a kit so that you also get the benefit of feeling like you created something valuable as your practice/learn. Something like this is great for the price! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08X13KY6S

Great to see, do you offer any discount codes/promo coupons for folks wanted to build multiple devices for their home/office?
