I did. As someone who is also new to Linux and to programming, I’ve run into similar hurdles and it is frustrating. Now I’m not trying to build a gaming system, but just something to learn on. I’m still learning to read through and interpret documentation and it often get way too over my head that I need to ask the community for help; and honestly, I don’t like to because of reactions like yours.

It’s really disheartening to come to the community, try to ask for help and to be told that I should just do it right, or to catch flak for not asking the rifht question, or to have someone share a chunk of code and say, “just use this,” which doesn’t help me learn.

To be clear, my previous comment was a pre-coffee and just irked me in the wrong way; I do owe you an apology for that so, sorry.

And you, rather than helping someone who admitted that they were new to the community and trying to learn, decided to just be a dick.

Another common one that I hear is, “Why do all cars look the same?” The truth of it comes down to two general factors, safety and improving aerodynamics to improve fuel economy.

It’s important to find work that also nourishes your soul.
