I find this has become rampant in the Linux community - whereas back in
2006 when I started tinkering with Ubuntu on a PPC this was not the case...
there has been a huge influx of people who like brow beating someone
else in order to feel smarter e.g. better or superior to others...this
is weenie behavior
Part of the geek culture is that it's good to learn new things, good to
do things yourself, and everyone should be learning new things ...
and it's a shame that this sort of attitude
exists, especially in the
music/audio FOSS community where educating others is imperative to
keeping our community growing and being innovative
