It could potentially help with 1 if you have some early bootstrap code to configure the sound card and get some samples. I agree with your general point however

- atoav 7y agoI probably don’t know enough about computers, but wouldn’t there be a way to use e.g. the digital outputs of a DAC directly even in the earliest part of boot? Is there a good reason why CPUs aren’t doing this already?
- pjc50 7y agoWell, if you have one, and if the thing it's listening to is sufficiently random - both of which are in question here. This is sort of the problem the CPU random number generator is intended to solve, but see the discussion on trust.
