[00:35] Techrights-sec "we could use even lower-power hardware"
[00:35] Techrights-sec yes even the raspberry pi requires a 3 A pwoer supply these days
[00:35] Techrights-sec for laptops more power efficiency could mean batteries lasting for a day or two
[00:35] Techrights-sec 'smart'phones won't even get through a whole work day let alone a calendar day
[00:35] Techrights-sec in their current software + hardware constellation.
[00:35] Techrights-sec yes, the trademark needs defending or it goes away. Maybe that is another goal
[00:35] Techrights-sec of the LF.
[00:37] schestowitz-TR I thought about writing something about their new political letter
[00:37] schestowitz-TR signed by microsoft
[00:37] schestowitz-TR edelman, then microsoft
[00:37] schestowitz-TR now LF manager
[00:37] schestowitz-TR paid 100% by microsoft
[00:37] schestowitz-TR and writing politicval latter
[00:37] schestowitz-TR with the name "linux" on them
[00:37] schestowitz-TR way to divide the project
[00:37] Techrights-sec what an egregious situation, their most hostile competitor has a place not
[00:37] Techrights-sec only on the board but inside management
[00:37] Techrights-sec yes, division is their well-used tactic. THere have been many previous examples
[00:37] Techrights-sec of them sowing division elsewhere.
[00:38] schestowitz-TR then again the letter si signed by THREE people
[00:38] schestowitz-TR two of whom male
[00:38] schestowitz-TR so if I pick on the "softer"
[00:38] schestowitz-TR they can try the "sexism" angle
[00:38] schestowitz-TR "why onl;y her"?
[00:39] Techrights-sec that's yet another means for them to sow division
[00:39] schestowitz-TR so I passed, sskipped
[00:39] schestowitz-TR not even a meme
[00:40] schestowitz-TR anyway, it was covered in a prior video/meme
[00:40] schestowitz-TR the miceosoft-spanks-linus one
[00:40] schestowitz-TR and it shows the names
[00:40] schestowitz-TR hides the faces
[00:42] Techrights-sec ack
[00:42] schestowitz-TR we have better things to pick on anyway
[00:42] schestowitz-TR yesterday I checked deeper the irs filings
[00:42] schestowitz-TR theior cfo lef
[00:42] schestowitz-TR *left
[00:42] schestowitz-TR same year they LOST money
[00:42] schestowitz-TR -$700,000
[00:42] Techrights-sec their subesquent adoption of Enron-style accounting is considered acceptible by
[00:42] Techrights-sec many accountants, both strangely and unfortunately.
[00:44] schestowitz-TR wait, are we talking about companies or a ahhole nation? or nations?
[00:44] schestowitz-TR seems like the world has made "loadn-from-unknown-future the norm
[00:44] schestowitz-TR maybe we can also borrow some "green credited" from the next generation?
[00:44] schestowitz-TR don't worry, we'll be carbon net negative
[00:44] schestowitz-TR some day
[00:44] schestowitz-TR we'll turn it around, promise
[00:45] Techrights-sec M$ considers itself, and works to position itself, above the nation-states,
[00:45] Techrights-sec Recall that some of the executive positions are named and positioned as if
[00:45] Techrights-sec they were national level, official governmental jobs.
[00:45] schestowitz-TR Chairman Bill
[00:46] schestowitz-TR Vice President
[00:46] schestowitz-TR there miight be others
[00:46] schestowitz-TR but many do end up in politics
[00:46] schestowitz-TR or vice versa
[00:46] schestowitz-TR see meta^H^Hbook
[00:50] Techrights-sec I was thinking more specifically National Technology Officer and sone other
[00:50] Techrights-sec job titles there.
[00:53] schestowitz-TR my job title at techrights shall be benevolent master of the universe
[00:53] schestowitz-TR and you shall be god the third
[00:53] schestowitz-TR just to ruffle some feather
[00:53] schestowitz-TR i need to follow some halo now... if you'll excuse me
[00:54] Techrights-sec They clearly continue to have designs on at least being considered part of the
[00:54] Techrights-sec governments. LOL
[00:54] Techrights-sec On a more serious note, Europe is about to most seriously regret allowing
[00:54] Techrights-sec M$ saboteurs placing M$ products throughout critical infrastructure.
[00:56] schestowitz-TR if you saw my video about secuyrity, I did mention that this weeek CISA pointed out Russia targets Windows
[00:56] schestowitz-TR the MSM will not mention this
[00:56] schestowitz-TR it's all day, all night.... linux "secuirty" something
