I have been deep in project maintenance this past month on GitHub & GitLab, and I am happy to say the #Solus #Conky Themes are finally updated. I gave the classic Octopus design a much-needed refactor and added a new native #Wayland version called Pure.

The suffering of adults in Gaza, the land of honor, is a great pain to me. Yet, nothing compares to the pain in my heart for a child who starved, thirsted, and cried until death brought him rest from his hardship. 😔💔
The child = Abdullah Abu Zarqa.

The USA—criminal, vile, deceitful—arms Zionist terrorists while pretending to send aid as famine kills Gaza, blocking trucks, luring the hungry, letting Zionists bomb them and gun them down, stealing aid to hunt the starving, gather intel, and perfect mass murder.

Simply rewriting a changelog into an article—whether about an #OpenSource software update or a new #Linux distribution release—without actually trying it or sharing a single screenshot shouldn't be acceptable. At Linux-Tech&More, I only write about tools and distros I’ve personally used. And not just for a few minutes—I dive in, explore them thoroughly, and share honest, useful insights based on real experience. I hope that comes through in every post I publish.
