I'm pleased to announce the new release of my Science, Programming, Art and Radioelectronics Club (SPARC) book:
https://github.com/artyom-poptsov/SPARC/releases/tag/v3.0.0
It's the 1st version of the book that has the English translation. Currently chapters from 1 to 5 are translated.
Edino Tavares Moniz (@onidemon37) helped with the proofreading, but the last two weeks I was working on my own so all the errors in the recent English text are proudly mine. :-)

This week's donation went to the MX Linux project. It's a Linux distro based off Debian which gives the user a choice in init system between Sysvinit and SystemD as both are installed. You can download your choice of editions which use XFCE, KDE or Fluxbox as well as install other desktop environments after install. It can also easily be used with the libre kernel if one wanted to if you follow the instructions at FSFLA and uses the liquorix kernel by default. It uses the Ext file system by default. The latest release is called Libretto which is based off Debian 12 but has several enhancements and newer versions of certain packages if you use the "ahs" version. Overall it is a great option if one wants a distro giving them more freedom of choice.
The project's main website is here:
The project has a forum and a presence on the fediverse:

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
