It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

First off, it would be “inferring”, not implying. I imply, you infer.
Next, no - I’m not saying that. That’s moving the goalposts. I’m saying your original statement of no new technology that not open source is a fallacy too. Proprietary tech often leads the way in innovation, and then that becomes the target of open tech as the tech is duplicated, refined, and then commodified.
How is that moving a goal post? Proprietary parts often mean the only the original manufacturer can upgrade or repair. Open standards allow anyone to build additional parts that are compatible.
This is not a hypothetical situation. There are thousands of high quality e-bikes with proprietary batteries, and sometimes the manufacturer does not offer replacement batteries.
When the battery is dead, the consumer has very few choices. With open standard hardware they can simply buy another battery. Why is this simple concept hard for you to understand?
Try leaving that first sentence out in the future, so you don’t immediately come across as a smug asshole not worth engaging with.
Interesting. I offer to explain how grammar works. You decide to berate and insult me and I’m the “smug asshole”? Hm.
Know what I like the most? The block feature. It allows me the opportunity to have more interesting conversations with more educated, open-minded people. Wheat from chaff, as it were.
Language, as well as grammar, should be looked at as a living document. It’s always changing, growing, evolving as society does the same.
And yes, when your first response to someone has to do with grammar, and not to do with what they said to you, you’re saying “Actually, what you meant to say…” and that’s where the smug asshole hangs out. (Ironic, I know.)
They did not ask for a grammar lesson, nor was one warranted. Come down off your high horse.
They also misrepresented what I wrote, so yeah - I had an attitude about my response but of course you’ll ignore that to attack from another side.
Block now on. Adios.
They asked a question.
