Interesting isn't it that this new user arrives to DNG just days
before the github announcement and that most of his posts have been
trying to convince us what a wonderful thing it will be. Can't you
just hear the bluebirds and smell the roses? We get what's happening
and where he's coming from. But I can't see anyone in this camp
buying into this very transparent propaganda. Time to move on. No
fish are biting here . . .
Oh good grief. The above is pure fantasy.
I've been a member of this mailing list since 25th Oct 2015 according to
my records. I've not commented before recently because well... I've just
not got round to it and I had nothing to add previously. Sorry about that!
I am most certainly NOT trying to "convince us what a wonderful thing it
will be". As I said before, I just don't blindly hate Microsoft
outright. You are reading way more into my comments than is really there.
I'm speaking for myself. Mark you use the word hate a lot in your post,
that's a microsoft mentality, they venomously hate linux, yesterday and
today. Me I just don't want microsoft in my computer, I like, no I love
linux the way it was intended to to be and with this setup I have
installed here, it's doing nothing I don't want it to do, it just sets
here not auto updating or making unknown connections to the internet or
calling home, it's doing nothing that I do not have command over, no
antivirus updating, no malware checking, no background activity and no
key logger, it's just setting here quiet, today and tomorrow and I'm
happy. I have no need for microsoft and it's need to take over my
computer, software or anything to do with microsoft. Now I believe what
microsoft is doing is illegal, from what I understand creating a
monopoly is still illegal and I believe the way microsoft goes about
it's business is underhand and just plain sinister.
I hear no bluebirds and I smell no roses. Nothing is certain in
business, so the GitHub purchase could well all go wrong.
In short: I have nothing to do with Microsoft or anyone associated with
them. I have no "very transparent propaganda" of any sort to pass on.
For what it's worth, if you search around you'll find me commenting on
other mail lists from time to time going back many, many years.
Is anyone going to ask me if I've stopped beating my wife yet? ;-)
No, but if you give your address I'll have the authority's check on her. :)
