Support for #Windows10 ended yesterday & unfortunately I waited until today to update to Windows11. @microsoft.com didn't say that I couldn't do that directly from Windows Update anymore. jamespyles1.substack.com/p/updated-to...

Updated to Windows 11 One Day Late

I’ve known that support for Windows 10 was ending on October 14, 2025 for quite some time and I’ve been ignoring it.

The robot will either "follow" as in this video or "explore" sort of like a Roomba.

My granddaughter & "Uncle Mikey" built a #robot yesterday. He lives in Boston so only visits occasionally & they're #STEM buddies. They built a different robot 5 months ago, but there was something wrong with the circuitry & the battery pack exploded (no injures). This one works fine.
