Matt has a point.  If we all limited ourselves to activities that are
pleasant from the very beginning, I doubt human civilisaton would have
ever occured.  From personal experience even sex requires overcoming
some discomfort before reaching ecstasy and I understand it's a lot
worse for women, nevermind such things as whisky drinking or winning a
marathon.

Why do we expect our computer usage to require no sacrifices at all?


I have one that seems to require a burned chicken to get it to boot, but
that's besides the point.

honestly, anyone played with omero?  I did for a few minutes and should
really try it again I think...  I'm actually thinking I might load Plan B on
my Plan 9 file/cpu/auth server and try to drawterm to it.  (It should work
right?)
