At the end they mention this text:
The authors and NVIDIA do not guarantee that this code is fit for any purpose whatsoever.
And say that it worries them. This is actually a warranty disclaimer (the warranty of fitness for a particular purpose) and has to be written like this to be effective. So I would not read anything into it
- cyphar 10mo agoNot only that, almost every software license (FOSS or proprietary) has a similar clause (often in all-caps).
- ninkendo 10mo agoIt's funny because I remember the first time I tried Linux (Debian) nearly 25 years ago, that "NO WARRANTY, EVEN FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE" warning in all caps really did leave a bad taste in my mouth, enough to deter me from using it much more until a couple of years later. Nowadays such things are just line noise to me, but back then I remember being lightly concerned.
