-## April FOOLS GOT 'EM!
-
-You got fooled!
-
-## AI-Powered Gameplay Assist and Voice Reaction
-
-Looking for a blast from the past to escape the modern world? We've got you covered!
-
-Introducing the next big thing for RetroDECK:
-
-**AI-Powered Gameplay Assist and Voice Reaction**
-
-Connect RetroDECK to your favorite AI solutions, whether local or cloud-based.
-
-Choose from our built-in character profiles that will talk to you, assist you, and comment on your gameplay, no matter what game you're playing.
-
-The future is now!
-
-### Character Profiles
-
-Here's a sneak peek at some of the characters we will offer:
-
----
-
-#### Raid Leader
-
-<img src="../../../raid-leader.png" width="200">
-
-The Raid Leader is here to make sure you never feel good about your gameplay. Expect quick, passive-aggressive comments and constant reminders that you're not perfect. Just like a real Raid Leader!
-
-**When you are playing:**
-
-- The Raid Leader will constantly remind you that you're playing at a below-shit-tier level, no matter what you play or how you play.
-- The Raid Leader will inform you that the only way to get better is to quit your job, class, family, and friends and dedicate your entire life to the game.
-- Each time you make the slightest misstep, the Raid Leader will go into `rage mode`, cussing at you and reducing your DKP by at least 50 points (that's a lot of points).
-
----
-
-#### Drunk Hunter
-
-<img src="../../../drunk-hunter.png" width="200">
-
-The Drunk Hunter only communicates in semi-drunken grunts, hisses, random words, sounds of pouring glasses, opening cans, and keyboard noises. The Drunk Hunter will assist your gameplay like an auto player or aimbot, playing at your game at a scaling level.
-
-**When you are playing:**
-
-- **Level 1**: The assist starts slow, playing at an average level until about `1.30 hours` in. You will hear the sounds of cans opening and glasses being poured.
-- **Level 2**: Between `1.31 hours` to `2.30 hours`, you will have perfect gameplay with the sound of the Drunk Hunter rolling their head all over the keyboard for maximum DPS.
-- **Level 3**: Post the `2.31 hours` mark, the AI assist will collapse and keep failing the slightest tasks accompanied by:
-    - The sounds of random drunk noises.
-    - Drunk mentioning of something called Aimed Shot.
-    - The sounds of dropping things on the floor and broken glass.
-
----
-    
-    
-#### Bigger Sibling
-
-<img src="../../../sibling-fight.png" width="250">
-
-The Bigger Sibling will join you in multiplayer games as the second player.
-
-**When you are playing:**
-
-The Bigger Sibling operates under special guidelines.
-
-**If you are playing a PVP game:**
-
-- The Bigger Sibling will always pick the most cheesy and broken character.
-- If the most cheesy and broken character is taken by you, they will call your parents.
-
-**If you are playing a CO-OP game:**
-
-- The Bigger Sibling will always pick the most cheesy and broken character if there is one.
-- If there is some cooperative puzzle like grabbing you and taking you over an edge, the sibling will always drop you two to five times first on purpose with an annoying laughter.
-- If you are in an obstacle course and need to jump over pits, the Bigger Sibling will auto adapt and try to block your path so you fall into the pit about 50% of the time.
-    - If you are blocking your sibling and pushing them into pits, they will call your parents.
-
-**What happens if the parents are called?**
-
-- If the parents are called, they will ask you both to go to your room and RetroDECK will shut down automatically and abruptly, all progress will be lost.
-
----
-
-
-#### COD 360 Lobby Gamer
-
-<img src="../../../angry-gamer.png" width="150">
-
-The COD 360 Lobby Gamer brings you all the best experiences from early online console gaming.
-
-**When you are playing:**
-
-The COD 360 Lobby Gamer will:
-
-- Spend most of the time screaming loudly.
-- Will suck at games you throw at it.
-- When confronted, will talk about all the depraved things they will do to your mom.
-
----
-
-
-#### The Ghost of Mourning
-
-<img src="../../../ghost-mourning.jpg" width="300">
-
-The Ghost of Mourning offers sudden whispers of ghostly haunting greeting phrases not related to your gameplay before going silent again. 
-
-This character simulates the feeling of the dread, loss and loneliness of the player that still is always looking and yearning endlessly in vein for his long dead `guild/clan/group/team` that have ceased to exist over a more then a decade ago.
-
-- The player that keeps logging in everyday to the game itself.
-- The player that keeps logging in everyday to the old empty communication server (Ventrilo, TeamSpeak, Mumble, etc..) and sitting there in alone.
-- The player is forever stuck in a endless perpetual login torment, a modern day Sisyphus.
-
-**When you are playing:** 
-
-As you are playing, in certain days you will see hear an simulated social login sound and have different people make ghostly whispers to you:
-
-- "Hey, are you playing?!" 
-- "Hey, long time no see" 
-- "Wow this place is totally empty!"
-- "Good to you again!"
-- "I got `purples / diamonds / kill streak` last night!"
-- "Do you remember when we did this the `raid / tournament / build / match` together, those where the days"
-
-Before you can even say a word back... the disconnect sound is played and it is once again silent for days.
-
-
----
-
-### The Ghost of Mourning: Trauma Center
-
-<img src="../../../trauma-center.png" width="200">
-
-As The Ghost of Mourning is the most traumatizing of all characters. 
-
-The RetroDECK Team have created a `🏥-trauma-center` channel on the Discord that will be populated by a vast network community none-experts for it to be a place where people can talk about their long lost `Guild/Clan/Group/Team`. 
-
-We have gotten several touching stories such as:
-
-
-**One user**: 
-
-
-I still see her everytime I login right there in my friends list on Steam. 
-
-Been offline for 13 years, my brain tells me... I need to remove this dead account. 
-
-But everytime I move the cursor... I just can't... I need that avatar still in my life. 
-
-PEELS HERE!! FOREVER... OMEGAKILLER9999.
-
-
----
-
-**Another**: 
-
-
-We where building blocks, I was making a train station and TheDuckMan0910 was making a stupid statue in the middle of the road, blocking everything in sight and polluting the landscape, like an eyesore. 
-
-But the TheDuckMan0910 never returned. 
-
-His stupid statue still stands in the middle of the landscape never to be touched but as a monument to all the diamonds we got in the end. 
-
-I still miss that stupid man of a duck...
-
-
----
-
-**Another One**: 
-
-
-WHERE THE BOYS AT?!...
-
-The boys?... 
-
-Boys?... 
-
-:(

-# PizzaDECK
-
-The creators of RetroDECK proudly present:
-
-<img src="../../wiki_images/logos/pizzadeck-logo.png" width="400">
-
-
-## What is PizzaDECK?
-
-PizzaDECK is a **ES**panol-**DE**utsch Fronend powered PizzaBox application that thanks to its `RetroDECK Ovenwork` builds-in a variety of cooking solutions, recipes and IOT integrations that is running in one package on the Steam Deck or your Linux PC.
-
-### What does that mean?
-
-It means that PizzaDECK builds in all the recipes and integrations needed for cooking the Pizza and a frontend. PizzaDECK then sends the relevant Pizza cooking data to various integrations via `RetroDECK Ovenwork` to make your perfect Pizza a reality.
-
-Instead of having all different cookbooks and apps to cook Pizza, you only need one PizzaDECK.
-
-## PizzaBoxes
-
-We at RetroDECK have the intention to bring you the next generation of Open-Source Pizza contained packing solutions, `PizzaBoxes`.
-
-RetroDECKs team of experts bring years of flatness expertise to the Open-Source community. We will make sure that the `PizzaBox format` is as flat as possible.
-
-The team has several key skillsets that other teams lack:
-
-- Italian knowledge of how to make Pizza even flatter.
-- Vast American expertise of running things over with monster trucks.
-- Swedish dark wizardry of furniture packaging.
-- Japanese mastery of the flattening of sea weeds.
-- The Chinese art of making Guo Kui.
-
-All of these things make the RetroDECK team... The best team in Open-Source to tackle the flatness problem.
-
-## Pizza Hub
-
-In addition you can get all the recipes via the `PizzaBoxes` with the new delivery system called `Pizza Hub`. We guarantee you Open-Source Pizza recipes within 30 minutes or less.
-
-
-## The RetroDECK Ovenwork
-
-It features cutting edge Pizza integration tech that is only possible on PizzaDECK:
-
-- Integrate with [Grocy ERP](https://grocy.info) for smart ingredient reminders and dynamic shopping lists. Plan the entire day, month and life for Pizza making.
-- We got `Docker` and `Kubernetes` support. We also have support for even better containers, like the `Cans` you inherited from your grandma for storing the Pizza Sauce.
-- We got support for smart IOT devices, follow the Pizza the entire way: Smart Fridge, Smart Oven / BBQ, Smart Temperature, Smart Utensils, Smart Plates and Smart Toilet.
-- We also got a `Fantasy Measurements Mode` toggle that allow the display of a faux measurement we call `Imperial`, great for TRPG roleplaying games while cooking the Pizza.
-- PizzaDECK will work with whatever the next new monthly communication IOT standards are: `Wireless`, `Z-Wave`, `Bee-Wave`, `LoRa`, `Lora from accounting`, `Zigbee`, `Zigfly`, `Zigtick`, `Bigby's Hand of IOT` and `Going back to wireless because nothing else works... again`.
-- Integrate with [Home Assistant](https://www.home-assistant.io/) for all your Pizza IOT needs. Start making the Pizza when you open your smart garage port that you spent way too much money on.
-- PizzaDECK also features several other important buzzwords such as: `Blockchain`, `Trianglerope`, `Generative AI`, `Degenerate AI`, `Deep Learning` and `Creep Learning`.
-
-## Thank you!
-
-We hope you all enjoy PizzaDECK as much as we have loved making it.
-
-❤️

-# Sibling Controllers
-
-Ever had that one controller that feels like it was designed by a toddler? 
-
-Welcome to the world of Sibling Controllers! 
-
-These gems are the ones you hand over to your sibling or friend when you want to win every game. 
-
-## PlayStation 2
-
-The PS2 was a treasure trove of these hilarious disasters.
-
-### MadCatz PS2
-
-<img src= "../madcatz-ps2.png" width="200">
-
-The legend of sibling controllers! Breaks if you look at it funny, feels like holding a cactus, and boosts your winning chances by 50%. 
-
-Perfect for sabotaging your sibling's gaming experience!
-
-### NYKO iType 2
-
-<img src= "../nyko-ityp2-ps2.png" width="200">
-
-Your sibling likes to press all the buttons, all the time and keeps ruining all the good controllers! The NYKO iType 2 got you covered.
-
-Got a sibling who loves mashing buttons and breaking your precious controllers? The NYKO iType 2 is your savior! With so many buttons to press, your sibling will be too busy to break them all... Right?! Please??!!
-
-### NYKO Airflow 2
-
-<img src= "../nyko-wireless-back-ps2.png" width="200"> <img src= "../nyko-airflow-ps2.png" width="200">
-
-Perfect for that chatty friend who won't stop talking during games.
-
-The NYKO Airflow 2's built-in loud fan will drown out their voice, letting you focus on winning Tekken Tag Tournament.
-
-
-### HyperMax 3
-
-<img src= "../hypermax3-ps2.png" width="200">
-
-Got that one friend everyone secretly dislikes but has to invite because your mom said so? Hand them the HyperMax 3!
-
-Even if you protested, your mom sternly reminded you to invite everyone to play games, even the annoying ones (thanks mom!).
-
-So, as petty revenge, you handed that "friend" this controller. 
-
-Good luck, Brad!
-
-### Samurai PS2
-
-<img src= "../samurai-ps2.png" width="200">
-
-Got a friend who's unbeatable no matter what controller they use? 
-
-Give them the Samurai PS2! It's the most uncomfortable controller you could find. 
-
-If they still win, it's time for the ultimate weapon...
-
-### Resident Evil 4 - Chainsaw
-
-<img src= "../re4-chainsaw-ps2.png" width="200">
-
-Lost again with the Samurai PS2? Time to bring out the big guns – the Resident Evil 4 Chainsaw controller! 
-
-It's big, bulky, and unwieldy. 
-
-This time, victory is yours for sure!
-
-## Super Nintendo
-
-### Ascii Pad SNES
-
-<img src= "../asciipad-snes.png" width="200">
-
-
-The Ascii Pad SNES is a bit uncomfortable, but your sibling struggling in CO-OP games needs a turbo boost. 
-
-You'd never use this turbo controller to spam in Street Fighter 2 against your sibling, right? RIGHT?!
-
-## Xbox
-
-### Gamemaster FPS
-
-<img src= "../gamemaster-fps-xbox.png" width="200">
-
-Brad, you claim to be the BEST at Halo and won't stop bragging about it. 
-
-WIN WITH THIS THEN!
-
-Here you go, Brad... 
-
-### MadCatz Xbox
-
-<img src= "../madcatz-xbox.png" width="200">
-
-MadCatz made an even chunkier version of the OG Xbox Controller that breaks easily. 
-
-Perfect for your sibling with small hands.
-
-## Nintendo 64
-
-### UltraRacer 64
-
-<img src= "../ultraracer-64.png" width="200">
-
-Your sibling told your dad you took the last Mars bar, but it was actually them. 
-
-"OK... little bro/sis... you play with this from now on. 1 v 1 duel, I'll be Oddjob as usual."
-
-### The Super Pad
-
-<img src= "../super-pad-n64.png" width="200">
-
-You need to win this Ready 2 Rumble Boxing match against your sibling. 
-
-The loser cleans the room, so you gave them this controller
-
-## GameCube
-
-GameCube had its fair share of sibling controllers, but none more legendary than...
-
-### MadCatz GameCube
-
-<img src= "../madcatz-gc.png" width="200">
-
-
-This legendary controller has caused several family tragedies over the years. 
-
-You had your game plan set and only allowed your little sibling to use this awful, broken controller while you played Smash.
-
-Everything was going well until one day, years later, your mom got a second official GameCube controller for your sibling. 
-
-You realized in horror the monster you had created. Like Goku training with weighted clothes, your sibling quickly decimated you in Smash with their ungodly skills using an official controller and rose to fame in the Smash community, beating everyone in local tournaments.
-
-Now, 20+ years later, you sit with chronic back pain, arthritis, and resentment, pondering those days when you beat your sibling in Smash. 
-
-You no longer speak to your sibling except for the mandatory yearly BBQ your father desperately hosts to keep the family together. 
-
-Every time your sibling pulls up in your father's driveway with their new car filled with Smash trophies and victory money, all you can do is communicate with grunts and pain.
-
-## The Ultimate Sibling Controller
-
-There exists one controller that has reigned supreme across several console generations. It still holds the throne as the ultimate sibling controller, and nothing can come close to claiming its title.
-
-### Fisher Price: Laugh & Learn - Game Controller
-
-<img src= "../fisher-price-laugh-and-learn.png" width="200">
-
-Of all the controllers on this list, none gives you as much power and joy as the Fisher Price: Laugh & Learn - Game Controller. 
-
-This controller is designed by the top engineers at Fisher Price to be the ultimate sibling controller.
-
-Can you believe the audacity?!
-
-They designed the entire product around the premise of playing pranks and tricking your younger siblings into thinking they are “good gamers” and "gaming" with big brother/sister.
-
-It is the ultimate sibling con, and nothing can ever top its place as the number one sibling controller of all time.
-
-"**Little Sis/Bro:** I am the best at this game!"
-
-"**You:** Sure...sure... little sis/bro, you are the best at this game! (You are not even playing, MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!)"
-
-#### The Konami Code
-
-<img src= "../konami-code.svg" width="200">
-
-Did you know that the Konami Code works on the Fisher Price: Laugh & Learn - Game Controller? It does!
