  • The MT7902 WiFi/Bluetooth Chip by Mediatek Corp. does not (and probably never will) have any official driver support. There are some unsuccessful community attempts to get it working, but nobody actually managed to pull it off.

    G6 Soundcard works for simple pass-through but SBX features aren’t natively enabled, you need a Windows install with Soundblaster Connect to enable the functionality and load the settings into the onboard memory of the card.
    Linux “supports” Dolby Atmos but it sound mostly like dogwater if not combined with Atmos mixed audio.

  • Another way to look at it is from a purely spiritual level. As in the soul being an inherited property of life. Every “living thing” from single cells to macro organisms like us has had at least some physical connection to it’s predecessors. We were once a physical part of our mothers body. For every living being a line can theoreticaly be drawn through a “family tree” from now till the moment of random prehistoric carbon chain molecules forming the first cells. So it would be just as valid to assume that a “soul” that emerged sometime in the distant past as a product of complexity is passed down (or rather split off) form our mothers to us. But this begs the question, would a fully artifical “motherless” being have a soul then? It could be just as likely that a perfect reconstruction of yourself would end up being a lifless sack of flesh even though physically there should be no reason for it to be so. It’s like you make a perfect copy of a running car but you measurement was static, therefore your copy wouldn’t be running at the moment of creation. You’d need to also consider the fuel, air, inertia of components and heat as part of the car, but they’re really not. The car can exist in a cold vacuum and with an empty tank and would still be the same car.

    It could as well be that you also have to measure a complex electormagnetic signature representing all physical and chemical processes in your body and apply it to your copy for it to function. But since you can ever only get partial electromagnetic information (position or velocity) there is essentially no way to perfectly capture and recreate a 9person and essentially copy a soul. Therefore it can only be passed down continuously.
