I would like RS-232 and RS-485 modules and a full size SD card reader would be nice too. It's probably something I would end up building myself if I get a Framework laptop.

Edit: It looks like they have an SD card module now, nice.

I 3d printed a dongle that has a Logitech receiver in it. All their design files are online, so you can make your own pretty easily.

Oh, damn, that's a game changing idea there.

What would you do with RS-232 and RS-485?

UART consoles and model train control systems come to mind.

I have a 485 adapter in my bag for BACnet and Modbus communications.

-485 is superior. Everyone knows it

And what the hell, add RS-422 while you're at it. And a parallel port! And the left side expansion port they used to have on the Amiga 500 and 1000!

And some ISDN BRI ports. And ATM and FDDI. And something I can do X.25 over. Oh, and Token Ring.
