Linux community is friendly, but there are bad apples - please, keep away from some toxic elitists!

A word of advice, yes. Computing should be fun, welcoming, educative. Not a battle field of ego's. Linux is suitable for every kind of people and use case now. Let's be friendly at all times. Why not?

"I used to work in a very famous Supermarket here in Jacksonville. I was taking out grocery for people helping them. One day a dude with a Mercedes that bought lots of food that I helped out, didn't give me a tip or anything, and he does not have to. The very same day I helped someone with an average Toyota and 3 kids gave me 10 dollars for helping him.

The point that I am making is, that people that possess something feel that others should posses that as well.

I've met physicians that have money and always had money, but will never greet anyone and I have met physicians that ask every day how everyone is doing. I talked to one of them and they told me that they came from poor background and they worked very hard to become someone in life.

Those physicians know what obstacles they had to overcome to be where they at today so therefore they know the value. Those are the people that will help others and wont give up."
