I hear about and read about everyone wanting to get along. I am old
enough to know that is impossible. I tend to get political and my views
are at odds with some or maybe most on the list.
Here is what I came to say. Shame on you all. You need to take an
inventory for what you have. Most of you can run me in the ground. I
struggle with technology. I always have.
I talked with Mike about 10 years ago. Apparently you do not know that
Mike experienced a traumatic brain injury.
Mike do not let this get to you. It is just junior and senior high BS.
I've been on this list since 1999 or 2000. Some of the questions I ask
are probably annoying. I use Google and as of late have started using
ChatGPT (AI) to seek information. The latter seems to do a better job.
I believe we are all here because of our common goal to work with,
learn, and enjoy Open Source - I know I am. I also know we do not live
in a vacuum. Other things overflow that are not Open Source.
We are a community. I could go as far as to say we are a family. I
heard a pastor say once that families prepare us for the world. I guess
families have a lot of strife.
