Darktide’s new Skitarii class is its most unique yet, but it also advances our understanding of Warhammer 40k lore

Warhammer 40k features the Skitarii class, which is characterized as cyborg warriors devoted to a cult and communicates in binharic cant. They possess abilities such as delivering electric shocks, using a retractable claw arm for close combat, reviving allies, solving puzzles, and providing fire support through Servo-Skull minions. The Skitarii class emphasizes support and teamwork over individual prowess, offering a diverse skill tree and customization options that enhance the gameplay experience. Fatshark's introduction of this class in Darktide reflects a shift towards strategic collaboration rather than traditional aggressive playstyles.

Someone built a Windows 98-powered smart toaster, and you toast bread by running an EXE

A smart toaster powered by Windows 95 has been created using a Raspberry Pi inside a 3D-printed beige shell. The original toaster hardware was incompatible with Windows 95, so a Raspberry Pi Pico was used to intercept inputs, allowing the Raspberry Pi to manage the OS-toaster connection. Users can control the toaster through a custom application called Toast.exe, which allows manual adjustments to heating, cycles, and tray movements.

The Windows 98 Toaster is Here

YouTuber Throaty Mumbo successfully ran Windows 98 on a smart toaster by disassembling the Revolution Cooking High-Speed Smart Toaster and using a Raspberry Pi 5 to emulate a late-1990s Pentium II PC. He created a custom program called “toast.exe” to facilitate communication between the Windows 98 interface and the toaster's hardware. The project resulted in a functional system that allows users to operate the toaster through a retro Windows 98 environment, complete with a 7-inch HDMI monitor and a 3D-printed shell designed to resemble a classic PC.
