For me it depends on the subject. I’ll argue about cars until I’m blue in the face, same with anyone that tells flat-out lies about the superiority of OSX to Windoze (which would be any and all such suggestions) or that Linus is of any use to ordinary users whatsoever (it is not). Beyond that, I will always go out at the first or second level.
