Quit smoking and other ways to keep healthy with Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Ah, Linux! Is there anything it can't do? Not only can you surf the Internet, 
| write documents and calculate taxes, here's how Linux also wants to look 
| after your health and well-being, including getting you off cigarettes and 
| avoiding repetitive strain injury.   
| 
| This month’s theme is “I didn’t know you could do that in Linux” and todays 
| is possibly somewhat light hearted but the message is a sound one. 
| 
| Everyone knows the card game Solitaire. It’s often among the six 
| most-recently used apps in Windows XP and Windows Vista’s start menu list. 
| There’s even an old joke depicting an office worker laying cards across his 
| table while complaining that the computers had broken down and he has to do 
| everything by hand.

Linux is Making Me Fat and Lazy

| Because of Linux I hardly have to lift a finger anymore, and because of it my
| health is suffering. I rarely hop up and down in a fit of temper, I don't
| have to drive to the store to buy software, and I don't get the aerobic
| benefits of spending hours on the phone with tech support, breathing hard and
| accelerating my heartbeat. I rarely make site visits anymore. I don't even
| leave my chair, because I log in and do fixes and admin chores from home. I
| even have my remaining tiny herd of Windows users (close relatives only who
| bribe me handsomely) set up with VNC over SSH, Cygwin/SSH, or rdesktop. I
| alone have the passwords, mwahaha.
