Show HN: Godot and Rust based multiplexer (terminal panes and more)

I wanted to share my side-project: gPTY. Started off as an idea to combine Godot and Rust in a project (two stacks I wanted to use more to learn more). The base inspiration was tmux - simply allow spawning multiple PTYs and then let the user grid/tile them how they see fit.

Ikea supersized its cheap Bluetooth speaker and added an optical input

Ikea's new Badkruka wireless Bluetooth speaker is now available in the US for $59.99.

And why does reading text from a file suddenly print every word on a separate line?
