I know enough to form an opinion. You're not an idiot and really should stop
pretending to be one. Its 2021... either someone blows us all away with new
software with new standards that every Sysop can't wait to install, or we go
back to proofreading documents. Notice I'm the only one taking the time to
reply to you to politely tell you to either put up or shut up.

.......

You had nothing to put up, so you shut up. "That" is the summary.

Look at the mental gymnastics you're doing to try to have the final word, all
because I believed you were all bark and no bite 2 years ago.

Look up the techno-dick phrase elsewhere; accurately describing someone with
a mental problem attempting to convince someone else that some tech thing
in Fido is important when really its not, and being a real dick about it.

Making something else out of it would be your weird Freudian hangup, not mine.
