Yep, it's sort of like looking at your hand to see if it is still |
| 23 |
there. If nobody cut it off, why check every two seconds to see if it |
| 24 |
is still there? Now if you are expecting someone to cut it off, then |
| 25 |
maybe check to see. Of course, if this happens a lot, you either need |
| 26 |
mental help or a body guard. I think hal needs mental help myself. I |
| 27 |
just thought it may be me that needs help, maybe a setting or something. |

This is another thing that doesn't restore my confidence hal. Still on |
| 30 |
the old xorg. |
