  • EdgeDeflector

    Discontinued A tiny helper application to force Windows 10 to use your preferred web browser instead of ignoring the setting to promote Microsoft Edge. Only runs for a microsecond when needed.

  • Interesting project to solve this: https://github.com/da2x/EdgeDeflector

  • ExpansionCards

    Reference designs and documentation to create Expansion Cards for the Framework Laptop

  • Yes laptops are terrible by default, to get your specific laptop running correctly is sometimes easy, sometimes impossible.. but if it's the right hardware, it'll be way more efficient. pinebook and frame.work (the only laptops worth buying) hopefully will get there.
