Sure, if you're in a space where people aren't technologically proficient that's fair. But this behavior is most prevalent here on lemmy, and i seriously doubt anyone who has managed to find their way to this platform doesn't know that linux exists. It just becomes real insufferable real fast.
Unfortunately my experiences with linux tell me that i will have to engage with the community, because there will be shit i need to look up and fix fairly often.
If i ask "how do i change the oil filter on my insert car model here" and you answer "get an electric car" i'm gonna think you're annoying and a bit of an asshole, especially if you keep doing it over and over on every similar question. It's not a "solution" that interests anyone when they ask that kind of question. Fuck off.
The problem is not the planet surviving, we know it'll most likely be fine eventually. The problem is that we're causing wide-spread death and destruction, including our own.
It's almost as if we humans have a span of temperatures that is comfortable to live in, and if the temperature goes beyond that -- above or below -- people aren't happy.
The fact that things might get worse in the other direction later doesn't mean they aren't bad right now.
