Me: "So you're the child of immigrants."
Her: "Correct."
Me: "But you don't accept immigrants are Americans?"
Her: "Not at this moment."
Me: "So your parents are not Americans?"

Perhaps my favorite exchange from my insane Jubilee 'Surrounded' debate.

For personal reasons, I no longer feel safe working on Linux GPU drivers or the Linux graphics ecosystem. I've paused work on Apple GPU drivers indefinitely.

I can't share any more information at this time, so please don't ask for more details. Thank you.

"We call on the world to stop the injustice & stop the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people," says Oscar winner Basel Adra to applause from the audience. 'No Other Land' just won the Best Documentary Oscar.
Also a fantastic speech from fellow winner Yuval Abraham on "ethnic supremacy".

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much:

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world.

It's obvious to all of us.

"The shooting only underscores the vastly different ways US institutions have responded to reports of antisemitism versus anti-Palestinian or anti-Arab hate.”

A Miami man allegedly shot two Israelis he thought were Palestinian. Read @premthakker.bsky.social's piece here: zeteo.com/p/jewish-man...

Over at the other place, JD Vance is calling me a ‘dummy’ for pointing out his administration’s attacks on journalists and free speech here at home. Musk literally today called for the jailing of CBS journalists.

The VP clearly has a lot of time on his hands.

"The Israelis shot and killed an innocent young woman and then caused the death of her unborn baby, too.

Shocking, right? Depraved? Murderous? And yet, as of Monday morning, there was no mention of Sundus Shalabi on...the New York Times or the BBC" - me, for Zeteo:

Israel Just Killed a Pregnant Palestinian Woman – And Western Media Doesn’t Care

How many Palestinian women and children have to be killed in the occupied West Bank before anyone in the US or UK gives a damn?
