Thank for the great reply!
What do you mean when you say light emulation? GameCube, PlayStation 2 type of light emulation you mean?
What other consoles have you tested? Any luck with ps3, ps4 and switch titles?

We do no kink shaming on this household
I think the neural engine works, but you need an out-of-tree kernel module. The asahi wiki talks about that, they say it is yet to be merged on mainline.
Gaming on arm is absolutely a thing… But not on the M’s… About the other chips it’s just on its infancy right now, fex-emu(https://github.com/szllzs/FEXEMU) and box64(https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64) are both capable of running wine, and of course steam. Games work, I don’t think its 100% of native speed, and the compatibility must not be perfect, but like wine/proton I’m sure it’s only going to get better.
The apple silicon devices have 16k pages kernels, while x86 is 4k pages, that would not be a problem if we had 4k page emulation/simulation on Linux, but we don’t, seems like macOS’s way of emulating 4k pages is wasteful to performance, and the contributors do not wish to make a similar implementation, so we don’t get one for now.
That is quite interesting, have you tried the edge kernel?
I don’t think its that “bad” current, but I’m sure you will have to wait for a bit, Qualcomm’s Linux kernel work is really not complete, and currently the only laptops you can get working with Linux are the thinkpad x13s and (maybe?) some other older models.
Not sure how unbothered your experience is going to be on any of these, and they’re all just as expensive as macs

Things are progressing really fast actually! Take a look at the feature support page
Since the first release of apple silicon I was quite a bit impressed with the hardware, of course im not really an apple guy, and so I initially thought “cool, but that’s not for me”
And then came asahi linux, and it changed everything, in a very short period they got the GPU working, and then came vulkan, opengl 4 and 4.2, most stuff seems to be working already, either on the bleeding edge kernel or the mainline; https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki Take a look at the feature support page, it’s really impressive.
I started to study more and more the development of Linux on apple silicon, and even more so after my laptop’s hinge has broken(tldr: I don’t have a laptop anymore, it’s just a PC); recently I’ve been wanting to buy a new laptop, so I can actually use it as one, of course, as any Latin American, I wish to buy for the long run, and all the options seem to be:
1 - Qualcomm laptops designed for windows ridden with shitware, useless AI, and a ducking copilot key( also I have terrible experience with the firmware of my current windows first laptop, I do not wish for more)
2 - Recent or older terribly power inefficient X86 laptops(mine is from 2021, the battery life sucked, even in windows, and it just heats up so easily, I don’t think it can even maintain maximum clock for 5 minutes straight)
3 - Apple silicon macs designed for macOS first that have a decent compatibility with linux, that will only get better with time.
Of course, I do believe X86 will get better with time, as it has already gotten, but until then, I either stick with my current deplorable hardware and wait until the improvements get actually mainstream, or buy another older x86 laptop, just to retire it later on.
Who do these people think they are? As a brazilian, i think our agencies should rightfully prioritise our content over foreigners’, no complaints!
Arch Linux moment
No plasma 6 on fedora yet ;_;
This is a lemmy post, not a mastodon toot
Of course, but I don’t think it will be on the official plasma 6 release date
Toolbox is more stable, but distrobox has more features
Thankfully, yes. But cortana has been replaced by copilot so we are in the same place
If those manage to land on plasma 6… Damn that would be the greatest update to ever be
Opensuse is stupid fast + its very very stable. Would risk saying its unbreakable(at leaat with regular updates)
It talsk about pcr, every time another OS is booted some pcsrs are changed, and if the keys are installed on the correct ones, this will lead to it being erased
Why do you spell it as “m$ office”?
