SOmetimes I can be rather lazy, especially when it comes to study or the such. What are effective ways to overcome procrastination?

I've been meaning to respond to this one too, but I just can't find the time.

That's hilarious!

One way of overcoming procrastination is to busy yourself with so many things that you just don't have time to procrastinate! If you become busy enough, you may one day master the art of being too busy to do anything at all!  ;D

Good for you, Jerry!  ;D

The best is still to get to the point where you turn and blankly stare out of the window, only stirring for the odd sound of the HD spinning... if you get good enough at it, you can actually hear what's going on by the way it spins!
I'm so good at it already that I know just from the HD sound, when there's an incoming email, or whatever else!
I'm hoping to one day get to the point where I can "think" my emails from those sounds!  ;)

I think that is going to be part of the evolution of humans.  We'll have hearing acute enough to hear when our fan bearings are dying but resilient enough to survive the full volume of the ipod permanently attached to our ears.  Oh yeah, and we'll have a tail that is specially adapted to controlling a computer mouse.

Or maybe we'll evolve to have built in bluetooth technology, where instead of having a tail to control a computer mouse, we'll have bluetooth to control it, and storage and such and such.

Possibly, but from a natural selection standpoint, you'll be prone to being hacked (bad).  The tail would serve as a an ancillarly sexual aid that would become the new sign of virility (good)

 ;D Perhaps we'll just have our brains plugged in, or better still, have our pc's implanted!  ;D

I wouldn't mind a usb interface, but then we would be obsolete at some point :)

More superior beings would have a firewire interface, for greater speeds
