    I’ve long bought into the idea of the machine spirit, and I have so many anecdotal stories about it. Most of the time it’s stuff like the mechanics laughing because they finally get to be on the other side of TPS (Technician Proximity Syndrome), but others are more amusing to me. Like the number of times I’ve fixed something by threatening to microwave the machine piece by piece and further turn it into the desktop/server of Theseus.
