Cool Invidia is open sourcing their graphic drivers!


After years of pain and pain... Watching Windows users using their fancy Invidia cards what we can't use either pay. It's come time, where god are on our side! Invidia is making drivers for linux!
Now I don't need pray to Satan anymore!
OK maybe one last pray to actually get one of their cards because their cards are more expensive than my house...

nVidia has provided Linux drivers for their cards for YEARS at this point. And the open-source alternatives have been around a good while too.

Decades even. They were providing rudimentary support for certain cards in the late 1990s.

It's true. Nice.
Not sure what those coloured words in your post mean, though.

Well duh. But you made a conscious choice to highlight some words, and not others. Also methinks you made a conscious choice to misspell Nvidia. Because it is "Satan"? "That-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named"?
