Wen the Eternally Surprised's random banging on keyboards is really getting to be a serious problem.  She managed to do something this time, with my screen locked, that screwed up my keyboard so completely the only thing I could do was ssh in as root from another machine and kill X.  She's also got some trick she does (we don't yet know what, we haven't observed her to do it) which unlocks [livejournal.com profile] cymrullewes's locked WindowMaker workspace on llioness.  Whatever it is, it only works on llioness, so I personally suspect it's a hitherto-unknown Windowmaker hole.

We have a Power Mac with a G3 card in it that she can't manage to do very much to because, well, there's really not that much you can do to the system on a Mac through the keyboard, except power the machine on and off.  She doesn't want to play with the Mac though. She wants to play with Mom and Dad's computers.

I may have to start laying my chair down on its side whenever I go away from my desk.  If I push it under or away from the desk, she's strong enough to roll it back to where she wants it, and if I turn it around facing away from the desk, she climbs up on the back of the chair and plunders everything she can reach from there.  But she's not strong enough to pick the chair up.

(Yet.)
