You may be surprised to hear that the code is not an explicit 'if (rand())
hang_gpu();' call.

Regardless, insulting people is rarely the best way to get them to do things.
Everyone has more problems to solve than hours in the day, and the guy calling
people 'incapable' does not tend to work his way to the top of the list.

No, it really did not. I understand your frustration, and I'm sorry to hear it,
though as the Bugzilla footer notes, the freedesktop.org Code of Conduct
applies here:
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeOfConduct/

If you cannot keep your behaviour civil in future, your access to this bug
tracker will be revoked. Thanks for your understanding, and I do hope your bug
gets resolved.
