NVIDIA Drops Linux Driver Feature Not Found On Windows

The nerdrage going on over this is pretty hilarious. By all means, continue.

Huh? Who is nerdraging? Seems like a fairly civilized discussion, aside from obligatory "Linus-one-finger-salute" image. Shrug. Glad you're so easily entertained though, enjoy.

NVidia gives us a production quality product, with regular updates and new releases,

Yep, and with every new release, have one to pray they don't make their product worse due to marketing reasons?

with feature parity across platforms.

...But feature parity means to strip working functionalities too...

Dem nerds don't wanna accept that Microsoft could pay nvidia to cripple or remove the linux driver jut because. And there is nothing they can do about it. Nvidia can decide to tell Linux to go fuck itself, not the other way around. But powerless people usually think they have the power....

Ugh, the BO$$ from M$, here from powerless people, catch

I still remember Bill Gates getting pied! Here's a link to a story about it:

Now remember that whenever you install free software instead of Windows, MS
executives get another, virtual pie in the face

Back on Windows 95, I had a game where you could pie Gates in the face.

Proprietary software has it's place.

Certainly not in driver software, or operating system code in general for that matter.

Ya, I remember that one...pretty damn hilarious!

Well all this nerd-raging is hilarious in itself considering all the nitpicking over features that not everyone uses regularly.
