Yeha, but you can ask for help without taking a shit on the effort of thousands of engineers.
If you're using a whole kernel for free, at least be nice when very deep technical things that you clearly don't understand don't go as you expected.
It's called having etiquette
I doubt OP thought, 'I'm going to take a shit on thousands of engineers.' It's okay to not know what to do, including asking for help. If they don't know what to do with "error 2," they're obviously lost. This unwelcoming attitude to newcomers is a big problem, and in my opinion, it's probably best not to contribute to it.
You can rephrase what you're saying and provide better help to someone who's completely lost in a much more polite and informative way. It's better for everyone.
He's the one who should ask for help nicely.
Imagine you clean your friend's house for free because you're a good friend. 2 hours later he calls you and says "What the fuck am I supposed to do with the shoes you forgot to pick from the living room?".
Can you even call that asking for help? He's clearly just bitching.
Did you not read his post? He is absolutely taking a shit on all the engineers. You can ask for help without cursing at and insulting the work of the engineers.
I'm giving them a little empathy because they are frustrated; that's all. We've all been there.
There isn't an unwelcoming attitude to newcomers, there's an unwelcoming attitude to idiots.
