And somehow every single time the problem was so easy to solve, but apparently crying about it is the better solution.

    But its true

    No one is paying these people to contribute to Linux. If someone would bring you donuts every day for free, you wouldn’t start barrading them with comments about how he comes late sometimes.

    And if you want that bug to be fixed, pay a software engineer to fix it, out of your own pocket. If they then dont do it, then you can start talking about them being late.

    Be grateful for all these people making your computer more than a brick.

      Sure, but ‘make your own doughnuts’ isn’t exactly a useful response to that.

        No, I’m pretty sure “try volunteering yourself” is a perfectly reasonable response to “why has nobody volunteered to fix this?”

        Could you tell me where I said you should just contribute yourself? My grep dosent seem to find it.

        I said ‘don’t complain about things people are making in their free time for you to enjoy.’
