I agree (with what is under the cut). But what lessons can we learn from all that?

That's what I'd like to figure out.

Of course, a better reflection and self-control would help.

I even strongly suspect that when an identity is really turned off, it is subject to much less decoherence.

But a better reflection and self-control would solve all kinds of problems, so it's catch-22.

Among other things I want to focus on various aspects of how to make a computer more useful/less harmful.

One thing I've just done was installing a "Take a break" Firefox plug-in:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/45343

It's not ideal, but it's better than nothing:

"Addicted to the Web? Don't compromise your health! Continuously staring at the computer can cause headaches, blurred vision, neck pain, fatigue, dry eyes. "Take A Break" extension tries to help you avoid or reduce these problems. It reminds you when to take a break while you are surfing the Web.

- A little icon on the status bar will be flashing every 15 minutes to remind you a short break. You should sit back and close your eyes, or look outside the window for a while.

- A pop-up dialog will remind you a big break every hour. You should stand up, get a cup of coffee, do some stretching, or go freshen up.

- You can adjust the timers according to your own needs."
