Welp, that's it then. Soon HuggingFace will require an NVidia Developer account, an onerous license agreement that must be agreed to during registration and a bloated cli interface with loads of telemetry.
I only need the license agreement to download and use CUDA/CUDNN, nvidia-smi, DLSS and proprietary drivers. Nvidia's not Apple, they don't make you register with them for basic SDK access.
