While funny, the whole idea of tracking your data enough to give you a wrapped kind of goes completely against everything these extensions are supposed to do.
My suggested alternative is you click the wrapped button and it just says:
“Fucked if I know! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯”
Yeah, I’d rather be doing a good thing poorly, than a bad thing successfully.
I think something that is often underappreciated is the level of independent technical knowledge needed to install and use Linux, let alone troubleshoot it, even today.
Microsoft has a support hotline, and staff that will help you, it comes pre-installed, and every tech store under the sun will help you along.
With Linux, that’s a bit harder. Plus, although it’s often a criticism for some people, windows’ hand holding won’t let you truly fuck up, and will always have a backup ready.
Linux on the other hand will let you run it into a brick wall, and completely delete your whole laptop.
Those are generally still really good reasons people want to stick with Microsoft or Apple, since there’s a far more accessible support network around it.
And in my experience Linux portals and forums are quite gatekeepy if you’re not aware of what’s going on. That’s not the most fun place to be if you’re stuck and don’t know what you’re doing.
Linux is great and I personally would recommend it to a lot of people, but definitely not everyone, and it’s definitely not just downsides. There’s plenty of legit cases where it’s the better option, even if the tools and everything function equally.
Funny lines!? I’ll have you know they were straight as an arrow!

I need a t-shirt that says this.
This is a programmers mic drop.
Bold move claiming a finch can beat an owl on Lemmy…
To add context for anyone who doesn’t know: DB is notorious for being incredibly delayed. Lots of cancellations, 30-40 minutes late is no rarity, and if you have a connection to catch I can guarantee you that it’ll be the ONE train running on time.
So you are right to be concerned, but only because you’ll never get to start your journey in the first place.
Well, I’d certainly want someone else to check his work first!
But even that is beside the point. Gandhi’s achievements aren’t in an inherently rational and objective field. No matter who you are, gravity works the same.
But instead Gandhi’s field is morals, ethics and politics. Those are inherently subjective and about opinions. If you have a really shitty opinion, then yeah, I’ll question your other opinions.
First they made you fear someone, then they told you they lived down the street.
Debatable how deliberate that was, but it’s certainly not not what they wanted…
