Yeah that, but also the humans there too were a bit much. The entire culture is like "entertain me, while I shit on your efforts to do so". People (don't) wait to speak rather than actually listen.

Here we are allowed to have an older crowd of people - who use Linux btw - and do more to step up to be the change that they want to see in the world rather than merely vent like children.
