Did I ask for this kind of opinion to be censored? This ridiculous opinion
that silly problems will make you wiser is too often expressed on Linux

set the record straight once for all so that we don't have to bear this
nonsense for another 10 years.

Check closely, I didn't split the thread. Somebody, unaware of the result, I
suppose, removed "OT:" from the title line. It's unfortunate but those
