Freedom: A sign of the times

I spend my time manically changing from a passionate love of digital culture to an angry fear that I'm wasting my life absorbing trivia, unable to sustain any serious reading, listening, looking, or conversation.

Just like everybody else.

Comes the digital solution: a chastity belt (or earplugs or blinders -- choose the appropriate reference) that disables your computer's network access for a period of time, up to eight hours, that you choose -- defeatable only by an irritating reboot.

Can't use it at work, don't need it at home, but what bliss!
