@paulthenerd My guess from this that audio parts of e.g. Thinkpad hae TCO of few euros or something :-) I.e. complete and total garbage. Better if the audio chipset did not exist at all. In fact, I often disable the laptop audio chipset from BIOS as the first thing. PC speaker at least does its job

@paulthenerd I only limit my endorsement to the audio port when you connect it to a stage amp (as a test case) ;-) No opinions on touch pad's they're all equally bad to me...
Audio port is no that special either. You get the same level of quality from 50 EUR audio interface. That's the main point here actually... It would not cost a lot to have better (about that sum to the retail price).

@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).

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?

First system upgrade ever I’ve tried for Asahi Linux ongoing *fingers crossed* (40 to 41)

@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".

jarkkoLearned how to install a “VSCode only” extension to VSCodium:
- Go to a page: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=nordic-semiconductor.nrf-kconfig
- Download vsix.
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.

@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.
