Our GitHub repo with open source CAD for Framework Desktop is already up so that you can start designing Tiles. We also included full mechanical drawings of the Mainboard for case builders. We’ll be adding much more as we go!

This week's donation went to the Solus Linux distro. Not only is it a good Linux distro but the project also contributes to the Brisk Menu which is my favorite menu to use by far. Solus is an independent distro meaning that it isn't based on any other distro. You can download editions that ship with Budgie, Gnome, XFCE, and Plasma as well as install i3 or Mate afterwards. Solus is a curated rolling release which means that they won't have things that are bleeding edge but will be only a couple weeks behind usually. Solus uses SystemD as it's sole init option. During install you get the choice between BTRFS, Ext4, and F2FS for file systems. Overall it has a fair bit of user choice as well as having a fantastic repository that had more of my program needs than any other distro did.




The Project's official website is here:

The project's source code can be found on Github:

Solus does have a Presence on Mastodon:

I may hate the company behind Github and some of it's practices but man do I find Gitlab to be a chore to navigate and use in comparison. Just feels less intuitive in pretty much every way.
