Funny to us

Are there any observations about life the universe and everything which are particularly funny to you are a Linux user which would fall dead flat to anyone else?

I’ll start by saying every time I type “gnome extensions” into my duck duck the top two answers are for sites selling garden gnomes. I should make a shortcut to the page I want, but its too funny to just search not to.

Maybe its just me.

Sometimes people wonder why my audio player is called DeaDBeeF.

But I can also tell them that I can run it inside (a) Wine (bottle). As a matter of fact I do that because I love the tagging and replay gain capabilities of Foobar but do not use it as my main audio player regardless that it works almost perfectly.
