Valve should hire her. With her help, they further improve SteamOS to have Nvidia drivers that are good.

It always fascinates me how people can achieve such things, and acquire knowledge to do so in the first place. Meanwhile, last night I spent 1h troubleshooting jellyfin because my kid clicked a few things in a menu by mistake when I was away.

Anyone who uses Jellyfin occasionally does some troubleshooting, don’t sell yourself short

Love that she did it, although I'm surprised they didn't sue her for contempt of business model (i.e. Some copyright BS)

If you mean Apple, it wouldn't really make sense for them to do that. Apple primarily generates income from hardware sales, so they wouldn't care if people run other software on the hardware they already bought.

Edited to say: this doesn't really apply for the iPhone/iPad as the application ecosystem is locked down. macOS isn't though so users will do whatever they want anyway. There are even tiling window managers for macOS!

Thank you Alyssa

Oh, i followed and admired her work since they first got the m1 to boot like back a few years.

First time seeing her face

It's people like her who make life worth living. People who solve hard problems that need solving (or sometimes don't even need it) are the best people.

...without asking a dime. Just love for the game.

VLC springs to mind.

Sounds like modern day halt and catch fire. Didn't know this is how Asahi was getting developed
