It's not the first time he calls someone stupid on this list. Who know why he feels entitled to such extreme and why he thinks every time his target will simply absorb the insult. Not desirable at all. Don't give up on helping others. Instead consider citing sources that backup your statements or a short explanation like "do this... because" or a warning about what the action might do to a system. Sometimes it's better to take a bit of time and give a good advice rather than post pointlessly and respond to every message on this list. ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
