Thanks for the info. I looked it up and yeah, apparently Nvidia does make Linux drivers.
Hopefully I don't have too many problems making the leap to switch...
I feel bad for Linux bros cause you are about to get flooded with tech illiterate people who barely know how to use Linux demanding shit "just work" and harassing the devs.

So this is gonna be a little different. But with social dynamics changing, I'd like to do a post about positive memories people had playing videogames.
>Can be old or as recent as today
>Can be memories with someone, at an event, or a late night by yourself and a game hit you in the feels.
Games used to make us feel something. I think we should try and remember those feelings and discuss them so we don't fade away into a cold, meaningless void of apathy and achievement dopamine.

Pt 2 cause why not.
I want to add WHY the entire industry began hating their customers, doing dumb progressive changes beyond reasonable inclusion, ignoring real market data in favor of made up studies that McKinsey consulting refuses to replicate or prove, and how academia allowed such dog shit studdies to be published
>Is it BLACKROCK
>Is it evil DARPA money
>Is it USAID funding
Sorta not really. (It didn't help tho)
>It was nepotism, hookups, and high profit margins funding it.
It makes 0 sense game journos attack gamers until you realize the audience is the product. Then you see how many of these journos are sleeping with people in game development for good reviews.
This problem is far and wide. These narcissists (at least the ones without major attention and funding like Sarkisian) are willing to fuck nerds for access to work, training, networking, and exposure (like Zoe quinn).
But it isn't just them.

Remember professional booth babes? Say what you want about being irrelevant to the product, but they weren't fucking the devs or con goers. They were professional models paid professional rates.
But when "professional cosplayers" demanded they go, and cons saw the "cosplayers" as free labor... those girls started fucking their way through devs and you started seeing pretty stupid whores become shit like "community managers" or "social media".
and Don't get me started on the drama and switch to full volunteer staff for cons and how they leverage their free labor to impose their will and beliefs on everyone.

You know that meme of a girl joining a hobby that is all passionate guys, then it all becomes focused on hookups/drama and the hobby goes to shit for it?

What that meme doesn't cover is the after part of this process:
>Women begin #MeTooing people for power plays and their feelings the hire incompetent friends leveraging harassment threats till they bankrupt companies
