schestowitz> Eh, imitation is flattery and I’m just going to let it slide. I‘m not a journalist nor do I write things to win a popularity contest. I’ve sent Dina everything that I have on Azure though. I’m honestly fine with it as long as they’re amplifying the questions that I’ve raised.Feb 06 06:12

schestowitz> What has me wondering is the timing of all of this. Like, why are two of Microsoft’s biggest proponents in the media questioning their shady financial reporting at the same time? It could be a coincidence, but Microsoft has been reporting their financials this for a decade now without scrutiny. So why take offense now and why in unison?Feb 06 06:12
schestowitzI wrote maybe 100 articles questioning their finances over the past 10+ years. Whether they were noticed sufficiently is another question...Feb 06 06:12

schestowitz"Interesting, if selfish view on FOSS. The analogy about auto companies sharing patents isn’t exactly right. They do that today. You can end up with cartels that way. Apple & Microsoft share patents. But now there are really large FOSS patent pools. Sustainable reciprocal sharing."Feb 06 19:32
schestowitzever since home computers could play video from CD-R’s. AV1 is an interesting project to me because it’s royalty-free. Every company involved is contributing their patents to provide an alternative to H.265. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV1Feb 06 19:32
