 #### Stress the CPU
 To simulate CPU load. Can be modified with:
-- `CORES` to target how many worker threads (default will use all cores)
-- `TIMEOUT` set a timeout (default of 120s)
+- `STRESS_CORES` to target how many worker threads (default will use all cores)
+- `STRESS_TIMEOUT` set a timeout (default of 120s)

 make stress
