old fart rant:

back in the day you could be trying to work out how to do something on an obsolete OS and post a question and if people didn’t know they’d just walk the fuck past the post and leave it there for people who knew what they were talking about. If you got no answers, you kept plugging away yourself.

nowadays you get straight up headshotted by some uppity fuckwit mod “this software is EOL” aye no fucking shit sherlock has it occurred to you that we are aware of this and there is a specific reason we persist?
