Just a couple of lines, and you’ve got instant debugging without touching the board.

The theft from Project Stellar and XboxHD+ is no longer being hidden.

The issue around the theft of our code remains unresolved and unaddressed. At this point, it’s a legal matter to sort out. Saying more only fuels harassment and misinformation.
