Sorry, I laughed harder than I should have just imagining the whole thing.
Thank you for telling your story, I’ll think about your rachet strap whenever I remember about my Coke can and that will definitely provide some comfort knowing there’s just some crazy nonsensical people out there.
I once got my window crashed to steal my radio plus a warm can of Coke I had in case of a long drive sleepiness emergency. The radio I get it, but the warm Coke… dunno why but I still think about it decades later.

Sad to see all these beautiful projects suffer for greedy interests. I’m loving Lemmy TBH, hope everyone comes to this new sweet home
Hope you enjoy your new laptop!
I’ve been 100% Linux for a few years now and absolutely love it. It’s not perfect, every now and then things break and become somehow frustrating, but it’s a different type of frustrating compared with Windows forcing ads or Apple gaslighting you into something, we are a huge community of users that want the best for our users, not greedy investors.
In my case I’ve stuck with Mint +XFCE for old computers and Kubuntu (Ubuntu + KDE) for new ones. Tried others but Ubuntu/Mint “just works” and eases a ton of pain, I haven’t got much free time to bother.
