i swore off nvidia as long as there were no good drivers.

Abut nvk seems promising
Aand in the laptop space, there's unfortunately not many options with AMD dGPU
©I did that for decades, but this time its final... EVEN if they start properly supporting Linux which i higly doubt...
POne of the limitations of AMD's open-source Linux graphics driver has been the inability to implement HDMI 2.1+ functionality on the basis of legal requirements by the HDMI Forum
Kjust the one, should be stupid-fast though, it's paid Cloudflare R2
VIt's been 2 MB for a few days at least for me
VI can do a speedtest of my internet if you like
VBut I typically get 100 mbps up and down
VWhat's interesting is that it throttles down. It started by going "blazing fast" but is now much slower
Twe should have a torrent magnet /s
VWhy /s lol, that's pretty standard
Tmaybe in the future that will happen
TISOs are still improving
Tso better to wait when it's ready
Tyeah i think it will happen soon
TThis is my speculation, but Collabora helps develop SteamOS with Valve
Ti think these drivers were made to get game mode working on nvidia
Ti mean obviously other reasons too
Jit's not speculation they pay them, it's been noted publically
Jthey pay RH too
MI’m a bit surprised about RH, thought it was only Collabora and Igalia
Ti wasnt aware of the payments to red hat too. collabora and igalia i was aware of
Ti think a lot of pc gamers do not realize how much money valve has been investing in the linux desktop since 2013
JRh is doing a bunch of kernel dev
Jand nvk along with collabora
Jit's all the same group of people they just rotate jobs lol
Jlike the guy running rh's desktop team used to run collabora, etc.
Tthat makes sense then, this year i going to be very exciting as it goes along
MI’m excited to see what comes out of this HDR hackfest
MHopefully one last push is what it takes to get HDR sorted across the board

If hardware manufacturers refuse to support it, the hobby electronicians will create an adapter which will FORCE them to support it at the end...

©Cemercialismn vs FOSS
AMost manufacturers are positive about Linux support
AOther than onexplayer
ALenovo, Asus, Ayaneo have taken steps to help Linux support
©super 
AThey are just concerned about their ip
©ip as in (C)?
AThey haven't realized nobody cares about their badly written spaghetti code
ABut to be fair the Chinese like to copy from each other soooo
©Ahum....they learned to copy from...? 
AIt's their culture
AAnyhow
©Don't go there...
AAt least half of the beta testers Lenovo has are on Linux now
ASo they're noticing
AI had a Chinese gf for a while so it's not racist
©Anyhow spaghety code aint bad per definition, its just hard to colaborativly improve...
AI'm a bit drunj
©Don't use the "i had/have a friend argument in those cases....
