Ben Skeggs at Red Hat has long been the primary Nouveau DRM kernel driver maintainer for keeping this open-source NVIDIA GPU kernel driver within the mainline kernel going... Throughout all the battles, particularly after the GTX 900 series and later has required signed firmware images for enabling any accelerated GPU support, he's now resigning from maintaining the driver. Ben Skeggs has contributed to the Nouveau project for more than one dedace -- he's earned references on Phoronix since 2008.

Oh, are we turning this thread into a OneDrive hate thread? Because I hate OneDrive. My work computer has one folder that when I tried to delete it, entered a permanent undefined state. OneDrive claims that it's syncing since march. It doesn't help that Windows Explorers defaults to syncing ALL of the user folders into OneDrive and there's nothing I can do because it's company wide policy. I constantly have deleted files in my Downloads folder randomly popping up after deletion.
