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.

If you think you know what happened or the context, you probably don't. Please don't make assumptions. Thank you.

I'm safe physically, but I'll be taking some time off in general to focus on my health.

Well that's sudden.

Hey there, Mr. Obvious but you really shouldn't run around here bragging to be a parasite.

Couldn't decipher what you wrote there. Maybe it's a result of the same cognitive dissonance that would push someone to deliberately support and buy vendor-locked Linux-unfriendly hardware, then want to run Linux on it.

You're just candidly lack any self awareness or you're a vampire acting in total deniability while you smell for blood.

Seriously, asshole, stop insulting people who do shit they just like doing. Just because you don't get it doesn't warrant any corrossive purposeless insults being validated as any kind of quality character.
