The responses I received were exponentially more helpful than scouring for the information myself.

Everyone here had experience and expertise that I did not, and I had a working solution running on my computer within 10 minutes of asking.

Part of the purpose of a community like this is evident in posts like this.

Your response, though funny, is damaging to the community, and unhelpful at best.

I understand where you were coming from, but please don’t.
