| [18:23] <Eickmeyer> leftyfb: I disagree with your redirection of Darkwarrior to -offtopic for that compatibility question. In the future, don't be so quick to redirect. It wasn't a question of opinion. | |
| [18:23] <Eickmeyer> Basically, you didn't have to answer at all. | |
| [18:23] <leftyfb> Eickmeyer: they're asking about personal experience on hardware they do not yet own | |
| [18:24] <leftyfb> without someone with the exact same configuration, there is zero troubleshooting that can be done | |
| [18:24] <Eickmeyer> leftyfb: Doesn't matter. Don't be so quick to redirect. You didn't have to answer at all. You made the people in offtopic angry because that really was a support question. Was it opinion? Perhaps, but that doesn't mean it's not a support question. | |
| [18:26] <Eickmeyer> leftyfb: My point is, there's no need to be so pedantic when people are asking a question. Try to be more friendly. | |

| [22:54] <JanC> yeah, questions on whether certain hardware works with Ubuntu are best asked on #ubuntu or maybe #hardware | |
| [22:54] <JanC> or on a forum maybe | |
