@janne Right and about USB-C suspend issue. Not a huge turndown with Mac mini. I just never suspend, that was my workaround.

@janne Nice work and do not mean to complain or push voluntary work! Thanks for doing all the effort with this so far. It's superb as far as I'm concerned.

The next thing I'm going to go through is this nice tutorial I found: https://davidalger.com/posts/fedora-asahi-remix-on-apple-silicon-with-luks-encryption/

Then it would be kind of "corporate work ready" (minimal requirements fulfilled).

@janne Yes, I was successful doing this :-) That's why I was asking. It's easy to migrate BTRFS subvolumes (actually did not know anything about it but learned how to do it about 30 minutes).

Speaking of Asahi's install script. I don't really see why it could not have "external drive installation" option, which would do the following:

1. Allocate space for EFI and /boot from internal storage.
2. Allocate root/home from given external storage.

Maybe there is something that I'm missing but I think this should be enough. Then Asahi would take constant ~2GB from internal drive only. If it makes install too complex maybe there could be "experimental option" for this. Is this feasible or not?

@raven667 Gravis Ultrasound is such a legend that some crazy person from Sweden has started to make remakes of it: https://www.tindie.com/products/kdehl/gravis-ultrasound-gus-pnp-replica/

PC Audio Story in short in consumer hardware:

1. Adlib
2. Few generations of Sound Blaster that all sucked. My friends with Amiga 500s and/or 1200s were laughing at me because its 8bit DAC's had "the sound'.
3. Gravis Ultrasound. One of a kind event in this story. These were awesome and beat shit out of Amiga.
4. Motherboard audio i.e. back to forever lasting "Sound Blaster crap".

@raven667 I can accept Honda, and sometimes it is way more robust car. All I ask for is a glitch-free audio :-)

Learned how to install a “VSCode only” extension to VSCodium:

  1. Go to a page: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=nordic-semiconductor.nrf-kconfig
  2. Download vsix.
  3. codium --install-extension nordic-semiconductor.nrf-kconfig-2024.9.20.vsix

Now Kconfig looks pretty ;-)

Why only Apple laptops have an 3,5mm audio port that is of super sonic quality?

All other audio ports suck. It's the literal truth. It's the killer feature in Apple products.

Try to connect your Thinkpad directly to a stage sound system and it will be hell. This applies to all PC laptops I've ever tried.

Why it is like this?

I don't have personal laptop at the moment but soon going to get a new one, and it definitely will be Apple laptop, and it is ONLY because of 3,5mm audio port.

Noteworthy is that also the latency metrics of Apple's audio are in par with an external audio interface.

Can OpenPGP signing key used also as Machine Owner Key (MOK) for signing kernel and modules by some means? That would be the most practical way as I have that always available in my Yubikey.

I can use my OpenPGP keyring to:

1. Sign tags for Linus.
2. Sign commits at work.
3. Authenticate to all SSH servers I have access to.
4. Authenticate to all Git repositories I have access to.
5. Right and manage my "root of trust" with pass: https://www.passwordstore.org/

I'm sure it must be applicable in a way or another also as MOK.

@ljs It's just that I hate political debates even more than politics itself, which I already hate quite a bit :-) Guaranteed way to get your inner Feng shui fucked up with almost anyone is to end up discussing about the topic...

@aldonogueira This is anyway my end game with these dominating browsers: both suck in their own ways :-) So I use the other until it fails me... Not really fan of either.

@aldonogueira I've put link to "about:profiles" to every profile as the first link in the toolbar. Makes it relatively convenient in the end of the day.

@ljs I've solved politics: my girlfriend says who I vote and then I vote that candidate. If someone asks me an opinion about politics, I'll tell them to ask from my girlfriend what I think. It's been great since the final solution.

The interface is a bit rough but Firefox actually has profiles just like Chrome. This from my work Thinkpad.

Have been converting once again to Firefox from Chrome only because I want to use at least the same browser in every platform and aarch64 has only Firefox (i.e. my Mac mini).

This is how I usually switch between Chrome and Firefox: a dead-end comes and I switch to the other.

Last time I switched to Chrome was because of broken WebMIDI support in Firefox, which now fully works with Novation hardware so the browser table tennis continues.

Only issue I've had with Fedora 41 has been Signal but then I recalled this:

https://github.com/BarbossHack/Signal-Desktop-Fedora

Building RPM packages and installing them fixed all the issues.
