Ask HN: Tracking Desktop PC Statistics

Hi, I'm currently using an app called "WhatPulse" to collect a limited set of statistics pertaining to how I use my desktop computer. It's nice, but I'd prefer something more thorough/comprehensive in terms of what gets tracked. I vaguely recall reading here years ago about something maybe Wolfram was involved in that tracked far more data points than WhatPulse does. But I'm not fimding it in the HN search. I don't know if there's anything publicly available to do tracking like what I'm after. With my luck, that functionality was some home-grown app I wouldn't be able to get my hands on. What do you know about this? Thanks, -c
