Whenever the ruling class starts to sense a threat to their power, that’s when they start picking out ordinary things in society and declaring them to be alien threats, and that anyone who disagrees or downplays the threat must be siding with the enemy.

We will be moving Virgo laptop PCB design to this public, GPLv3 licensed project: https://github.com/system76/virgo/. This will be the most open, modern x86 motherboard design I know of.

Godot is legitimately incredible. Anyone who can donate, please do. Unity heavily detracts from OSS and does its best to corner developers into Microsoft platforms, and Unreal Engine also isn't exactly OSS either. Godot does amazing work given its status, so if you can, go donate.

I'm seing a trend away from "Text Size" sliders or old fashioned font dialogs and towards a few set choices "Default", "Large","Larger", etc.

This is a HUGE step backwards. Your 'larger' is *never* large enough for my crazy busted eyeballs when I'm using my 34" monitor.

If you must do this, please be sure to add "Largest" and even "ZOMG ARE YOU SERIOUS LARGE" options. Some of us REALLY need them, even if it seems insane to you.
