Yeah, I remember. However, a) it still worked on NVidia, and b) it doesn't seem to have helped AMD's marketshare.
Witcher 3 is included with all sorts of NVidia cards, I noticed today. It's still going to work on AMD. It doesn't mean CD Projeckt thinks AMD needs better Linux drivers.
Steam Manager 1: Ok, lets tell NVidia what's what. Make HL3 AMD only. Somehow.
Steam Manager 2: Sir, I'm just looking at the Hardware Survey that we run, and just over half of our customers use NVidia.
Steam Manager 1: Oh. Ok, lets not throw away half of our potential sales.
Steam Manager 2: Good call.
Would that really help?
I'd think steam users fall into two main camps; the casual 'whatever came with my PC' camp, and the 'hardcore gamers' camp. Hardcore gamers are either going to blindly go with their favorite platform, or they're going to go by benchmark numbers.

Charitable work makes you a religion? Is that codified somewhere? Is charitable work sufficient to make you a religion? Or just a subset of things which in some squishy way will?
No, charitable work is part of what gets you tax-exempt status, is the idea. Either way, you're contributing to the community, is how it was intended.
Except, churches aren't busy doing business and earning profits.
Go look up the filings for various churges, including the CoS, the Catholic Church, and so on. Go ahead. Then tell me they're not for-profit.
If you do an image search, nearly half of the artist renderings still depict Pluto as blue-grey in color. I think the reasoning was that the planet was thought to be largely covered in methane ice, which has that color. And they were right about the ice, but UV radiation can initiate reactions in methane and diatomic nitrogen to produce a mix of simple hydrocarbons and nitriles, similar to the orange-brown haze that shrouds Titan, just on a much less dramatic scale.
As bad as Mozilla? It's at version 42, Mozilla is at 37. Who do you think started this cadence in the first place?
