Thanks to Nvidia, there's a new generation of PCs coming, and they'll be running Linux (www.zdnet.com)

OK, maybe you wouldn't pay three grand for a Project DIGITS PC. But what about a $1,000 Blackwell PC from Acer, Asus, or Lenovo?

Besides, why not use native Linux as the primary operating system on this new chip family? Linux, after all, already runs on the Grace Blackwell Superchip. Windows doesn't. It's that simple.

Nowadays, Linux runs well with Nvidia chips. Recent benchmarks show that open-source Linux graphic drivers work with Nvidia GPUs as well as its proprietary drivers.

Even Linus Torvalds thinks Nvidia has gotten its open-source and Linux act together. In August 2023, Torvalds said, "Nvidia got much more involved in the kernel. Nvidia went from being on my list of companies who are not good to my list of companies who are doing really good work."

I don't have a specific words per minute count, but definitely quite fast.

Can you actually understand mumble rappers?

Seriously though I find these accessibility discussions very informative and they make me think about how I develop things and share information. Thank you for sharing.

You mean the fast rappers like DMX? Actually, no. I can't. They even speak too fast for me.
