I wonder if they really make money from Windows anymore, or if they're just passive-aggressive little berks that don't want to give up their paper kingdom.

Because AFAIK their web services (running #LINUX, of course!) are their real money makers. And I guess the "365" crap. lol

@frameworkcomputer Framework's continued commitment to "deliberately create a big tent" is paying off.

More than a month since the last public statement comment from Framework on the subject and they still haven't distanced themselves from this guy.

The forum thread has over 2000 replies at this point..

DHH on twitter quote twitting another racist post. DHH's posts read: > The Danes have been publishing detailed crime statistics and other social outcomes of immigrant groups since the late 90s. > It's shocking how poorly some specific groups manage to integrate, how much violence they bring, and how expensive it is for the Danish state to host them. > It's equally remarkable how well other groups do. Japanese people literally have the lowest crime stats of any tracked group in Denmark. Americans almost as low. Immigrantion works fine when you cherry pick the very best from high-performing countries.

Framework's CEO on a public forum thread: > We support open source software (and hardware), and partner with developers and maintainers across the ecosystem. We deliberately create a big tent, because we want open source software to win. We don’t partner based on individuals’ or organizations’ beliefs, values, or political stances outside of their alignment with us on increasing the adoption of open source software. We’ve sent out large quantities of hardware to folks at Fedora, Bluefin, Bazzite, NixOS, Arch Linux, Linux Mint, Omarchy, and many other distros, and have sponsored either the organizations directly or events with Linux Foundation, LVFS, NixOS, Debian, KDE, Hyprland, and others. Within the team itself, personal distro and OS preferences span basically every Linux distro you can imagine along with FreeBSD. I personally am running machines with Fedora (for machine learning), Bazzite (for gaming), Omarchy (general productivity), and Windows 11 (when I have to). > I definitely understand that not everyone will agree with taking a big tent approach, but we want to be transparent that bringing in and enabling every organization and community that we can across the Linux ecosystem is a deliberate choice.

Time to learn another configuration language: KDL, apparently pronounced "cuddle" is supposed to deal with some of pitfalls of XML, JSON, YAML and TOML.

@malcolm @thumbsup Noctalia also has a nice demo and works with #Niri and #Sway

Another option for a polished experience with Niri as a scrolling tiling window manager is to integrate it with COSMIC. Developed by hardware seller @system76 COSMIC recently reached stable status.

If you've been trying a scrolling tiling WM, let me know which one and how you like it!

#Linux

Scrolling tiling window managers visualize a desktop as infinitely wide. So when a new window opens on a full monitor, existing windows don't have to get smaller, they simply scroll left or right.

Once such window manager I'm looking at on Linux is #Niri. Seee a demo video here:

https://github.com/YaLTeR/niri

To bring the bling for full a desktop to Niri, there's Dank Linux, which also a demo video:

#Linux

Support for being able to tile windows on your computer so they fill the whole screen has been growing. I appreciate being able to get the most out of my monitors and using keyboard to quickly manage my windows.

Now the next generation of tiling window managers is scrolling tiling window managers. In first-gen tiling window managers, as monitor filled up, existing windows many become smaller and smaller, until some windows become stupidly small. Scrolling Tilers solve this... 🧵

#Linux

@malcolm Dank Linux has an impressive demo video.

I may have to give it a try as well.

This appears to add a lot of bling to tiling window managers without packaging itself as a pile of shell scripts as #Omarchy does.

#Linux

Here's my setup: https://schmonz.com/2025/11/12/small-macs/

(Writing... muscles... loosening.)

#macos #linux #netbsd

Strong suspicion I could swap out #macOS for #Linux, do better with #Minecraft and most everything else, and not do much worse at macOS-specific stuff like #GarageBand and Messages under #OSXKVM (https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM).

Anyone done this, or something similar?

A new #blog post appears!

I built a native GCC 14.2.0 for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger PowerPC.
