What? I thought Nvidia didn't want to mainline the open driver??

Edit: Grrrr, clickbait. This is not about their open driver but as far as I understood about exposing a more minimal driver for vGPU usage, in light of development of Nova, a Rust based nouveau successor.

Are we really going to start this pointless discussion again? They are two licenses with different use cases and different considerations. GPL has a lot more mental overhead to using it, MIT is hands off, both of these aren't inherently invalid.

Also Tanenbaum in your own link mentions that Intel probably would have just written their own microkernel if need be.

Essentially, their entire schtick is being a middleman. By sitting between the server you want to visit, they can do helpful things like DDOS protection, being a CDN (basically store website assets closer to you), managing HTTPS for you and providing access to your website over IPv6 even if your server doesn't have it.

By nature of that though, their position is quite sensitive since it has become a service that a good chunk of the Internet goes through. That causes concerns about centralization and pisses in a lot of people's cereals politically.

Holy shit the comments on this one are vile. If you don't like the article, don't read it and go on with your day.

The footer of the blog shows a Nix file structure, skimming their blog they wrote a bunch of articles and guides for Nix, checking their repo they have a bunch of Nix work, they're not exactly a nobody (if you couldn't judge from the people saying they'll miss them on the Nix forum post)

This entire article is an extension of https://save-nix-together.org which is the actual thing that sparked the the gasoline covered Nix community, this will probably seem more coherent with that background.

They take cracked games and compress their size down so that shipmates with low bandwidth can download them easier.

Wasn't the reason they couldn't produce more because of the semiconductor shortage?

GPU passthrough requires two GPUs, a system with compatible components, a lot of caffeine and a lot of patience. Not something for someone who wants something that just works.
