I don’t believe you care to read, a reddit post, a response to your ramblings or a manual. You revert to insults, talking down to others and claiming it’s appropriate because you want something.
Your expectations are not met, take it out on friends, not strangers. They might be more understanding.
If a FOSS-tard means that I encourage the use off FOSS because I believe it’s a often the right way to go when it comes to privacy, freedom and all that jazz… then, yes, I am a FOSS-tard.
I understand that you are attempting to be insulting. I will acknowledge that, if that makes you feel warm and fuzzy on the inside.
We all want everything to work perfect all the time. You are not alone or special in that. Decades experience says otherwise. And from that same period of experience I can promise you that the FOSS-tards like me are equally as gifted in delivering shitty software as any other corp that sells closed-corporate-patent-pending quick hacks for $2000 a pop. Oracle calls them drivers, I call them “curious, and inoperable”.
Like I said, spend money on somebody that can do it for you so you don’t have to lose your patience, save some time so you can “experience” the rewards that you did not work or are interested in.
If you manage to regain your composure, and get all the bits and pieces of software working together so it does what you want, you might understand why we do what we do. And because you don’t get that but choose to come her and and complain to others who do get it… I will call entitled.
Because that’s what you are.
well, yes, we do… but we tend to work to fix things so it does what it needs to do… you are confusing your inability to fix things with “poor design of software”
If you don’t want to self host your shit or get it fixed by somebody else, and trying to make that happen by acting like a entitled end-user, pay somebody to do it for you…
but if that all is too hard, start with not being a jerk first.
I think the sentiment is that you omitted something, knowingly or not. So, instead of trying to defend yourself in your actions, take a look at what happened and perhaps that will be your “A-ha” moment.
So, don’t take a personally, but very personal ;)
