I blame Bill.
You are anthropomorphizing your computer, and
childishly ascribing to a
machine your own personal likes and dislikes.
Everybody knows that computers run on Guinnness Extra Stout.
There has been a study ages ago, that people (especially women) tend to
handle computers as human beings. Funny but true :)so this is nothing
unusual.
There was a story I heard that in the 1920ties older woman in Germany put a
cake infront of the radio so that the homunculus inside would have
something to eat :)

I accept full (or fool) responsibility! I would point out, however, that I did
not make the first off-topic comment about chocolate. If you had said
Guinness Stout, like any normal person, we would not disagree.
And by the way, the danger of creating homunculi [note the plural form] (just
like the golem in Jewish tradition, or the tulpa in Tibet), is that said
artificial creation may develop of will of its own, and get out of its
creator's control. Then, instead of demanding cake, cheesecake, chocolate, or
Guinness Stout, it may begin to make unreasonable demands, like wanting to
eat potato chips in bed, or a diet of nothing but coffee and biscotti for
weeks on end, or pizza, ice cream, dill pickles, and fresh strawberries.
On the whole, it is best not to create such a being inside your machine;
unless of course it is already possessed; in which case it is time to
reinstall your system yet again.
But enough of this levity, wench! Back to topic!

Around here, since I'm a DM-II, only Miller64 is allowed on the
premises,
so it runs on that or does without. When that guy Murphy shows up he
eventually leaves again in search of a real beer. So there are
advantages to a near beer. :)
But enough of this levity, wench! Back to topic!
