Yeah, that's what I'm *HIGHLY ADDICTED* to: embarrassing young women.
And I thought she was a he!... didn't parse the username properly where it should have been 's/\(anisha\)\(kaul\)/\1 \2/' not '(anis)(hakaul)'. Good thing I haven't known it soon or else I would have made comments in a more careful manner.
As stated before, don't let a computer (or a site for that matter) take control over your life. When the urge arises to go to LQ, just think about other things you like and try to restrain yourself. I know it's hard, but that's the only way to overcome an addiction this strong, by shear will power and mind control. Best of luck, and don't stay away too long
Don't try things like laser therapy as done when trying to quit smoking or patches or stuff like that. It just doesn't work!! Your mind and will is the strongest medicine you can find.
Many thanks to you for the soothing words...You were right, I should not let any website control me. Somehow I feel I don't need to use the router blocking technique anymore now ! It is time for me to pay attention to self improvement rather than LQ !

Hello Anisha,
You're very welcome. I'm glad that you found the force to carry on and take control of your mind .
The best control you can find is your own mind, believe me, I know for a fact that this is the truth.
Also, it's obviously not possible to do something that even root cannot change. Just think.
Actually even root can't decrypt the /etc/shadow file with all the passwords...If the password is lost, one can set a new password but can never recover the old one ...
