  • I have a quadro k2000m in my laptop. Cannot use modern drivers, and old drivers slowly have their support dropped by everything else. If the chip works then the drivers should as well.

    AMD does not have this problem. AMD has open source drivers. If NVIDIA made their drivers open source then it would not be a problem.


  • NVIDIA drivers are notoriously bad. They break and WILL depreciate your card eventually, forcing you to switch to the slow open source drivers.

    I have had two cards lose support. It’s absurd.

    But for 370 it’s kinda a steal honestly.




  • This kind of thing often has the opposite of the intended effect. People then host mirrors of the original repo, and the press brings more developers to the project.

    This sort of action by Nintendo and other companies is so short sighted. Bad press, a legal battle they couldn’t actually win if it went to court, increased attention on the thing they’re trying to hinder, etc. Its a stupid decision made by business people who don’t know anything about tech, and who are disincentivized to care about the long term health of their brand.

    I litterally had not heard of the emulator until now. Maybe I’ll have to compile it and give it a spin now.










  • There are so many tools to make documentation for your project. LATEX is a great one, and you can use it to easily host your documentation online. And it’s really not difficult at all to do by hand. If you can have it on discord you can certainly have it in a repo.

    Maybe it’s a cynical ploy to increase community engagement with their project by getting them into the discord. Regardless, it gives me The Ick. Very gross.
