 - In the LCDDisplay lib, reimplement all the features I have in picoSmartie + maybe finally add keypad support for both so I can toggle backlight (?) or change screens if I want any
 - Screens could be automatic tbh, like if it detects media playing it switches to media screen, if in media screen and GPU power > 80W it switches to main (hwmon) screen
 - Try to be C++26, avoid globals, wrap in namespaces, use naming conventions, use classes, avoid pure C way of doing things unless it makes more sense (which it often does tbh, better for reading small files)

 ### Additional notes
 
-- To read motherboard sensors on ASUS ROG STRIX B550-A GAMING, as of Linux 6.16 you need to booth with kernel parameter of `acpi_enforce_resources=lax`. On Fedora it can be added by appending it to `/etc/kernel/cmdline`. 
+- To read motherboard sensors on ASUS ROG STRIX B550-A GAMING, as of Linux 6.16 you need to boot with kernel parameter of `acpi_enforce_resources=lax` and load the `nct6775` module. 
+  - On Fedora it can be added by appending it to `/etc/kernel/cmdline`. 
+  - On atomic desktops, `rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=acpi_enforce_resources=lax`
 - You need to be able to read RAPL as user. Create in `/etc/tmpfiles.d/intelrapl.conf` with content `z- /sys/class/powercap/intel-rapl:0/energy_uj 0440 root uucp - -`. Adjust uucp to whatever group applicable, like `dialout`.
 - `compile_commands.json` is so clang understands this project, so we can edit it with helix/neovim. Generated with `bear -- make`, make sure to run `make clean` beforehand.
