and so the concerning consolidation continues
I'm fairly relaxed about Embracer doing this. Their historical MO has been to scoop up dead or struggling developers and give them a chance to keep going - a bit of money, a bit of security - but otherwise largely leaving them alone. That seems like a better thing to do than to money hat already successful developers and use them as a competitive cudgel (Microsoft) or destroy them (EA).
This, but sadly they will reach a size that MS or EA gets interested in them:(

NVIDIA 470.57.02 released as the next stable Linux driver (updated)
19 Jul 2021 at 6:31 pm UTC

Although I fully agree nvidia has the better/faster/feature driver I moved to amd about 2-3 years ago. Tbh it was not out of some open source vs closed source purity reason I have to admit. Simple reason was I love my tumbleweed and although there is a repo or you can do it the hardware (kernel sources, build etc) new kernels where always a gamble, checking forums when a new version came out,locking kernel till was sure it would work.... In that respect I am glad I changed over, much more relaxing :)

Let's hope that never happens, so there will never be micro transactions and we can keep enjoying a game that you buy once and keeps getting updated :)
