1.50 BoredOS Rebrand

1.50 is a version with not that many "os-related" updates, but it does bring something new: BoredOS! Since BrewOS was already being used for a custom operating system for smart coffee machines, i decided to copy the naming of my github username: BoreddevNL and turned that into, well BoredOS.

Anyways this update brings some extra stability and graphical bug fixes, that's about it. Oh yeah also a mouse sensitivity slider in the control panel. Enjoy!

-Brewkernel was a text only very simple (and messy) project i started 3 years ago. It was my first work in OSDev and i absolutely loved it. It sadly just got too messy and i myself couldn't understand my own code anymore.

 Brewkernel has already been deprecated and will not be accepting any pull requests or fix any issues as it is now a public archive.
 Thanks to everyone who helped me with Brewkernel, even if it were just ideas, and intend to keep working on this for the forseeable future!
