From memory, EU used to have very strict laws against reverse engineering. Is that still the case today? I mean this whole thing is pretty much based on reverse engineering the GPU.
That's the US. EU is fine.
Some added context: Many may be reading this the first time and wondering, What gives with the NVIDIA drivers (Nouveau)? To put it simply, NVIDIA screwed third-party drivers by requiring a ever-changing encrypted and signed blob, hidden deep within the proprietary driver package, to be sent to the GPU every time it boots. Otherwise, you can't change the clock speed of your NVIDIA GPU from the boot clock speed, which…
The November 2020 M1 machines are nearly getting to daily usability in Linux. Support for screen brightness adjustment, the webcam, speakers and mic are the remaining things for day to day use for me. All look like they should be working in 6 months-1 year. It's a bit of a shame that the RAM is so limited on all those platforms - I can't imagine it being enough to load many electron apps in a few years time.
Not to say that it should not have more, far from it. But the Electron framework is so wasteful, compared with basically all the alternatives.
I wish the framework developed for Sublime Text were not secret.

nVidia only requires signed firmware starting from 2nd-gen Maxwell cards (released late 2014). There's a lot of existing nVidia hardware that could be fully supported.

A chrome process normally takes up about 100-200MB RAM. Are you running 8GB/200MB=40+ different electron apps at once?
Currently sitting at 29GB (on M1 Pro), just for regular web dev environment on MacOS.
Does it need proprietary blobs?

It's so comical to see a literal VTuber developer doing absolutely awesome work on an extremely high technical level, and better yet, on HNs frontpage almost every week. God bless anime.
It would kind of make sense for people who just don't want to show their face even if they don't want to be particularly vtuber-y I was wondering if this would be more common as the technology developed but it seems like it hasn't and instead there are specific ideas about what vtubers are supposed to be that have become entrenched. There are some people like Hikalium who are using vtuber avatars for live programming…
