Reason enough to buy a laptop or desktop from @FrameworkPuter if you have the need for an upgrade.
I wonder if they have any other customer-centered reasons...

Because we brought in enough inventory ahead of time, we're currently selling SN850X SSDs for about 40% of the going market pricing. e.g. 8TB for $899 instead of the $2,399 that costs straight from SanDisk. Sticking to💸💸💸 for you rather than taking the extra margin.

Both DDR5 and LPDDR5x costs continue to increase, and we've had to update pricing again today. As before, we are setting DDR5 prices as close as possible to our purchase price, and absorbing some of the increase on LPDDR5x.

We held off on it for as long as we could, but we had to update our Framework Desktop pricing today to account for the massive increase in LPDDR5x pricing from our suppliers. As before, we're only adjusting prices enough to cover the increases in cost.

It turns out businesses and organizations want longer lasting, customizable computers too. Our B2B sales have grown even faster than consumer over the last year, and we're expanding our team to keep scaling this. We just opened a Head of Sales role to lead this area.

Managed to get WiFi working on Linux with an unsupported WiFi card! (MT7902)
By using QEMU/KVM with PCIe passthrough and Internet sharing on the Windows VM to the tap0 interface.
You can get the WiFI connection to work on the host through this hacky method!

@matteocervelli @jakew @dev_maims I like to build on this with Mint, a more stable company with better consumer practices and extremely nice desktop (idk man the Windows style just hits different, but you can change it) and avoids the issues with Snap by using Flatpaks.

A more precise statement, IMO:
- Linux, specifically Ubuntu, is the best OS for development. It has better kernel integration and replicability, containerization has a better performance and you develop without any tradeoff or change between development and production.
- macOS is the best host OS. Because of a superior hardware platform and parallels. Parallels enable to work with Linux like it’s a boot, same with windows, in the same time, with the same keyboard and display, and it’s fast and smooth. Working with Ubuntu VMs it separates environments, so that your orchestration OS is never affected
- also, while you can develop .NET on apple metal relatively easily, using SQL on Docker, swift poses more challenges on NT

This to replace my Sentry Mini in my plane

I had to combine the PA and AFE in the Framework laptop SDR. The split approach took too much space away from the filter banks. Although less modular, the new implementation allows for 4x RX and 4x TX, and is a much cleaner mechanical integration. I also switched to skived heatsink which is much more affordable in low volumes than the zipper fin heatsinks

Omarchy 3.1 is also shipping with unified copy/paste hotkeys. Super + C / V. No more remembering that it's Ctrl + C / V in a browser and Ctrl + Shift + C / V in a Terminal. Oh, and in service of @sudobunni, full screen is now Super + F (instead of F11) 😄

I have a feeling this is biased data from the Linux circles but if you legitimately use Linux (not just like it) as a daily, especially if you're using complex programs (like games with anticheats 😞), you're awesome.
