I mean that's great but it doesn't stop everyone else from falling for it, and you having to pay the price accordingly.
I just call myself a Luddite at this point. Any technology developed outside of FOSS just completely disinterests me. Everything else is assumed to be malware.
I got into cycling a few years' back. But of course technology is coming for bicycles too and all my riding buddies are just so amped about it and can't understand why I want absolutely nothing to do with it.
Went from e-bike to fixie and ironically enough this isn't a joke. I'm happier and healthier now.
