Maybe someday I can finish @OS1337 .…

I have an idea: cheaper RaspberryPi model with their 1st party 7" screen and a battery-hat so that it can work out of thin air for a couple of hours... And it's your PC's extended OTA monitor

Eventually he will be older than 22, but overall he seems like a good Pole. Though, I kinda gravitate towards KDE nowadays

Tons of potential use cases. Saving and bookmarking for when future me has time to play around with it.
