TELooking back, this moment aged wildly.
In 2012, Linux founder Linus Torvalds called out NVIDIA over Linux support during a public Q&A. The moment went viral because it exposed a deeper issue: when hardware companies control access, developers might pay the price.
Today, NVIDIA dominates AI, GPUs, and data center compute. The company evolved. The stakes got bigger. But the core trade-off between openness and control is still shaping tech decisions, markets, and platforms.
Tech history explains more of the present than most people realize.
