In this video I discuss the recent announcement that NVIDIA made about open sourcing their drivers.

    Not the drivers, but the kernel modules that load the drivers. Still a big deal though.

      Yeah the classic moving driver functions to firmware.

        What’s funny is this really illustrates why intellectual property and indeed capitalism could only ever be a failure…

        The whole system is predicated on being slightly better at getting something done and then holding on to that advantage forever through secrecy and legal protection instead of trying to improve.

        If there were no intellectual property, if everything were completely open, then the competition wouldn’t be about trying to hold on to a single advancement for as long as possible, instead it would be about competing to create better systems that continually bring more and more advancements.

          You can have capitalism without intellectual property. You can pay for stuff even though there are ripoffs. Maybe because the quality is better.

          Which proves the rest of your point, but you actually make that in favor of capitalism by saying there’s competition people would value.

        it’s better than before, because this enables nouveau folks to do a lot of stuff. And it’s a also a nice change of attitude from Nvidia.
