The joys of working at home, #928

Note to self: the interaction of cats and power switches can be unfortunate. I really need a new power strip, that's not quite so easy for someone chasing a ball to turn off.

(OTOH, the nice thing about using a laptop as my primary dev machine is that I didn't actually lose anything...)

What we've done for Metageek's CPAP, which is subject to the same issue, is to tape a plastic bottle cap over the switch, tape acting as a hinge. He flips the cap up to reach the switch, and then it comes down again to protect it from the cat feet.
