    ZSTD rocks! (It's taken me a year to convince NVIDIA to change XZ to ZSTD - thanks God they listened).

      Then you weren't very successful. I only wrote them about ZSTD this week and they changed to it within 48 hours

      - joking ofc

        And we now celebrate more than one year of this blocker bug that has gotten absolutely nowhere further to being resolved: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/...7#note_1746574

          It's wayland and linux issue, nothing to do with nvidia.
          It can't be fixed until this is implemented https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayla...ge_requests/90

              It's all related to that wayland protocol

                Hooray for closed source software in FOSS!!

                  The most surprising thing about you is that I'm 99.99% sure that you call yourself an open source fan or something, yet instead of skipping this news piece, you actually clicked on comments and left your own one.

                  Why? Really, why?

                  I have a ton of things in life I couldn't care less about - I don't go around leaving inane comments expressing my grunt. You could have turned your resentment into learning to code and improving something in Open Source. A ton of open source projects severely lack manpower, yet here you are, wasting energy, time and space.

                  There are literally tens of thousands of open bug reports and feature requests in various open source projects. Yet here we are hating on NVIDIA which is a very successful company which employs tens of thousands of talented people who just happened to chose the closed source over open. And many didn't do that on their own volition. And many people in NVIDIA do contribute to Open Source.

                  Comments like yours are painful to read. A literal eye sore.

                  "I'm so cool, I'm in the Open Source tribe, I chose it as my own religion, let's denigrate other tribes".

                  Tens of thousands of years ago people in tribes actually fought hard for survival but today's tribes are often only good for loud vapid proclamations.

                  And lastly.

                  What if NVIDIA didn't offer closed source drivers for Linux at all? Would it be better then? I guess you never thought about that. "Everyone using Linux must buy an Intel/AMD GPU or go f themselves", right? No option to stay with NVIDIA whose Windows drivers have generally been sublime and the company actually provided drivers for the open source people who at every turn love to talk shit about the company.

                    If they need a year for this no wonder they need so long to get their wayland support straight
