The worst part of this is half of these are the same white labelled tuya devices that can simply bind to each other's apps or the original tuya app.. And half of them completely disable local network access... Like why?!

Nvidia on desktop has been mostly fine, if not rock solid, on the happy path they provide. But their happy path hasn't included proper wayland support for a long time. Nvidia on laptops? Insert the famous Linus Torvalds meme here
