LOL, @indiginous welcome to HN. You will find that comments such as this just won't fly with the community. Get a better argument or attitude. (By the way, I didn't down-vote your comment, someone else did, as the original commenter cannot down-vote replies made to his/her comment)

I will entertain your reply for just a short moment.

1. Nothing is "thrown in for free" There are always cost associations. Some food for thought, that also goes for software. - A comment such as that will make your credibility for intelligent conversation go down the drain.

2. You are missing the real point of my comment above.

That's funny -- I've been reading HN for a long time and am aware that most comments are left by lonely idiots with super low IQs. I've tried to adjust for that, but even so your position is even more inane than most. Keep trying. :-)

May I ask what you gain from calling him inane without any arguments to back up the point?
