The eyesight thread made me thinking.
You sit and stare at a screen for 10+ hours a day, it cant be strictly work related or studies.

What fun stuff do you do in front of the computer?

Tell us!

What, you mean what I do physically in front of my computer other than doing stuff on the actual computer? Or do you mean what I do on the computer?

noisyturtle · « **Reply #7 on:** Wed, 25 September 2013, 17:34:26 »

it would be easier to list the things I don't do in front of the computer:
1. Sleep
2. Shower
3. Travel to other computers

That makes no sense, they're not connected? and they don't influence each other..

hmm, i hope this is a joke. If not, then you might want to talk to a psychotherapist. Watch out for psychiatrists though, they hand out pills first, and ask what's wrong with you second. Meds are not necessarily bad, but I don't like the blanket pharmacology you get from most psychiatrists. If you worry about your monitor and mouse pad every day, and it's causing you anxiety, or interfering with the rest of your day, you may have OCD.

I move a beige oval-shaped piece of plastic around on a table and press buttons on a keyboard.

Windows 98 does have good dial-up support, but I run all my machines on DSL now and set them to access the internet through my LAN. I do miss the dialing sound the modems used to make though!
