Yeah he has a point. I have run the nVidia binary on a box before this
laptop and it was a PITA handling kernel updates. I have also run the
same box with nv, it is zero hassle. I wouldn't've quite dealt with my
complaints like Kim did but I could have written a nice rant about it

No. I am saying they made a choice to starve the nv driver of what is
in their binary blob. Which they alone have source for and can donate
