On the other hand, one of the major gpu manufacturer’s still has terrible driver support.

Major PC GPU manufacturers and their drivers:

Major phone GPU developers and their drivers:

Not sure. Usually having BlueZ(Linux bluetooth audio stack) and glue in audio server or bluez-alsa should be enough.

Drivers

Linux has no problem with them. Unlike only one manufacturer, that breaks all drivers without holy blessing since late Maxwell era.

It seems you misunderstand the goal of goverment.

This is your opinion of what you want governments to be, not what they actually are.

I am sorry your country doesn’t try or even claim to be social.

What is the point of not researching and having bigger budget, if it can’t buy thing that did not get created?

What a lot of negatives and hypotheticals. All solved by getting a return on investment and having that money to do more things with, including research.

So in the end money will be spent on research anyway.

And then on goverment level there is no such thing as copyright or patent.

I’d like to introduce you to the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) which is an intergovernmental organisation that does precisely what you say doesn’t exist.

And what next? It can’t stop any goverment from ignoring copyright or patent.

But then anyone could take them anyway.

I’m saying it is necessary to achieve the aims of the GPL.

Which would make GPL toothless, but that’s fine because it would no longer be necessary.

But then corporations could not stop anyone from modifying their modifications to things like Lemmy.

I’m yet to see how AI makes #2 relevant.

Copyright for software is a joke. Software is only copyrightable thing, where mandatory copy is not enforced.

Free software is response to software copyright and software patents.

Trademark is also useful. I don’t want Tyson making fake vegan hot dogs

It has nothing to do with trademark.

Example. Copyright is a joke. For art if you have more lawyers, you win. For software mandatory copy laws are not enforced and source code gets destroyed forever.

Patent documents are rarely useful because they’re kept as general and opaque as possible to cover as many innovations as possible.

I think this is a problem that can be fixed inside of patent system. Make it so by the end of patent life there is “how to build production line of this” manual.

Research is supposed to be public benefiting. Private funding just is bad at it.
