Nvidia needs to chill on the version numbers, their graphics driver is currently at version 537 lol

I remember using Nvidia drivers in the 70s years ago. I also remember thinking it was crazy when they rolled over 100. ๐Ÿ˜‚

it was crazy when they rolled over 100

It was the same with Firefox and Chromium when they hit version 100. Some developers were scared that websites would start crashing because of the three digit version string in the user-agent.
