Maybe it's about time for Linus to break the fourth wall and flip them off again in the middle of of a university classroom?

I mean it worked wonders the first time, considering that's how we got the Nvidia proprietary driver to begin with.

Could you elaborate a bit? I don't buy nvidia hardware and don't follow them at all these days, but I very well remember using the proprietary driver back in 2008 or so. At the time, it seemed to me to be the only well supported high-performance graphics driver.

I remember using their proprietary driver on linux at the turn of the millennium.
