Afghan man gets a VISA to the US after assisting the US army in Afghanistan as an interpreter.

Now, without a warrant, Trump's ICE goons have arrested him and put him in detention to get him deported to meet their deportation quotas.

That is your reward for being an ally of the US.

Luigi is charged as a terrorist for tagging a CEO, but a man who targeted 3 individuals, including 2 senators, is not charged as a terrorist.

Do you guys see it now? Yet?

Figured out why my Pixel won't get the Android 16 QPR2 beta update. I installed the Android 16 update which moved me to the June security patch and QPR2 is on the May security patch. So I have to wait for the beta to also move to the June security patch level.

Hopefully that happens with QPR3.

Holy crap, Microsoft laid off Mark Kashman! I've been shocked at some of the more visible people that got laid off this time around.

Wild.

The Times can't help itself. Blatantly corrupt dealings in Trump world merely "raise ethical concerns" -- because the Times (like essentially all of Big Journalism) has normalized activity that would have had news barons demanding impeachment of any previous president.

I'm ever so glad I ended up getting a Pixel 8 Pro instead of the Pixel 9. I've had a smaller phone screen for awhile and having the extra real estate has been wonderful.

Anytime I do something on my wife's 9 I feel cramped.

I see the clown in chief is saying peace between Israel and Iran soon. So I suppose we can expect an extended warranty like Russia invading Ukraine.

Except the US will get drug into this one.
