Right - I know the person complaining is a little bit misguided (and seemingly refusing to understand, which can be frustrating) but when your primary contact is "@haxx.se" you must surely be at least a little bit prepared for these sort of things.
I'd prefer to give the author the benefit of the doubt, but it seems odd to even post this publicly at all unless a tiny part of them wanted to have a "haha look at this idiot" rant and they knew it could be justified under "I was only asking for help...".
- FussyZeus 11y agoIf people come to me not knowing how stuff works and are just asking for help, I would never make fun of that person and would tear into someone who did. On the other hand, if someone was woefully wrong about how something works and came at me as if their ignorance was my problem to solve, they can sod off. And I'd be happy to post their threatening and hilariously wrong headed emails all over the Internet, because for a lot of people being publicly humiliated is the only way they start listening.
