- GordonS 4y agoI don't mean to be rude, but I think you should read back some of your own comments and reflect on them. You're coming off as a very bitter actor, with all comments verging on trolling.
- fartcannon 4y agoThanks for not being rude, Gordon!
- carapace 4y agoLook I'm not trying to defend "fartcannon" per se, but I gotta point out that if there's any bitterness here it's due to Microsoft's past actions. People who are suspicious of MS have good reasons. I'm sure if some other company donated $0.5M to FOSS maintainers the negativity would be greatly muted or even absent.
- fartcannon 4y agoThanks! Microsoft uses these platforms to advertise/promote. I don't like it. Advertising and PR are pollution. If Coca-Cola PR or big oil or the tobacco industry promoted on this website, I'd have a similar distaste for it.
- carapace 4y agoCheers. Your rhetorical style is a little rough perhaps, but you're not wrong. When you compared the payments to "blood money" I was like "Oh my", but then I recalled an article that points out that Bill Gates knew Epstein "decades prior to 2011" ( https://unlimitedhangout.com/2021/05/investigative-reports/the-cover-up-continues-the-truth-about-bill-gates-microsoft-and-jeffrey-epstein/ https://unlimitedhangout.com/2021/05/investigative-reports/t... ) and I throw up my hands (and my breakfast.) What a world we live in, eh?
