Best way to wean yourself off computer games

[Hyperblaze]

I'm turning my main machine into a work machine to stop playing games and to do some serious work on there.

My solution: install gentoo on it

well when my ex left me she took the computer, that helped.

Get a day AND a night job. You won't have time to do much more than check your email and nef on ATOT for 20 minutes a day.

Send me your video card. I can send you a 2mb Matrox Millennium (assuming I can find one).

Problem solved.

Play Connect Four. The board game...the real thing with the yellow rack and the black/red checker piece things.

Do that for the next week. Yeah.

He is just suggesting you spend your free time posting nude pics of yourself on the internet instead of playing games.
