Fantastic work!

Battlefield 2142

I got really excited for a moment, I read this as Battlefield 2042.. Come on EA, it's possible to play every other Battlefield game on Linux except this one due to a arbitrary choice to not enable anticheat support

Michael there's a typo on the word "compknent" on the first sentence.

Even bigger news for Nvidia cards and Linux as a whole is that the explicit sync Wayland protocol was just merged.

This should start the waterfall of merges to X11, Xorg, Mesa, Plasma, and Mutter. EGL-Wayland's support has already been merged.
