Well, even on fuckin' IRC, I can turn an image into a text link with
a Ctrl-V.  So, here I need Imgur.

No. Text is searchable and indexable, and can also be quoted. We see
this all too often in online open-source support forums, particularly
from users who are too accustomed to Dimdows systems, posting
screenshots of text messages instead of copying and pasting the text.

Um, this is Usenet, not an "online support forum".  What I posted was

Copy and paste the text, please, I don't want to

  Then don't click the link, idiot.  Not my problem, if you're another
one of these old people stuck in your ways.  Modern people would show
this as a screenshot.  Get fucked.

Screenshots of a few lines of terminal text is verboten; it's a waste of time and computing resources.
And it makes you look like a weird newb.
