I did it from scratch following a guide from Linux Magazine from a few months ago. I had to do some modifying and it was a lot of work, but it runs pretty seamlessly now, so the effort was worth it. I'll see if I can find it and tell you which month's issue it was in.

That's awesome. My Asus uses a bit more I think but I never measured it. The MacBook air used to die in one day in sleep mode and now it'll last almost two days, so progress!

I use asahi on a MacBook air, and love it. The battery life on sleep mode has been improving but it's nowhere near the voodoo Apple does to MacOs. I recently installed Linux on my Asus machine and found the process and community to be really helpful, so maybe that's an option for you. Check out https://asus-linux.org/

Dumb question, but are you using a monitor that supports HDR? And is set to display in HDR?

I'm not sure how KDE handles HDR but if you're looking at the SDR and HDR side by side, one of them is either displaying incorrectly or being converted on the fly to display in the other dynamic range.

That was actually a really cool read, thanks for sharing

If you're allowed to install it on your work computer, asahi Linux is my current daily driver and it works really well. Being able to use asahi-bless lets you switch back to the Mac without having to go to recovery. It's a really great project.

I did not view Bush at all like Trump. Really disliked his political takes on most things and thought he was embarrassingly dumb some times but it never ever even crossed my mind that he was a threat to the republic. And actually admired his composure and leadership after 9/11. They're not even remotely comparable.

I use lightsail exactly for that purpose. I've had my firewall using wireguard connected to lightsail for over 2 years now. Will rarely run into a block or glitched captcha loop but it does happen. I also pay for express VPN as a backup and have that on my phone, and surprisingly that is virtually never blocked. Performance with wireguard / lightsail is more consistent for all day use though
