There would be cameras, software and people, who detect visitors, which procrastinate or are distracted or do nothing productive, and kick them out.

       I think this idea is... hang on, there's a squirrel. Get back to you soon.

       I had an idea for this once. Well, more than once. Never actually got around to doing it, though.

       Think of it as extra credit.

       Procrastinators anonymous prayer:   

       God grant us the serenity to, wait a sec I'm looking up what serenity means.

       //I put the count into country music.// Bravo that man.   

       Perhaps this explains why there have been several people claiming to be the King or Queen of country music, but never the Count.

       I don't even know what a "computer club" is in this context in the first place. It doesn't sound like an *UG…

       ^ "computer club" means computer cafe I do not really understand, what discussion is about, just want to admit, that I am not english native speaker, so there could be some sort of misunderstanding XD

       I see! In that case, these rules make sense. But if the customers are paying for the time, what does it matter if they waste it?
notexactly, Aug 26 2019
  

       I think of a computer club as a place where people do a lot of soldering, make wire-wraps and muck about with breadboards and DIL sockets and stuff.

       I wasted another morning with the other serenity movie.

       So wait how does anti-procrastination tie into the halfbakery?

       // I wasted another morning with the other serenity movie. //   

       Did you not watch the TV series (Firefly) first? I imagine it might not make much sense without that.   

       For anyone who's going to watch Firefly, I recommend skipping the episode "Out of Gas" in the normal episode order and then watching it at the end. It's better that way.

       Some rare times, over-workers need an infection of procrastination to bring them back down to earth.

       I thought about procrastinating, but it sounded like a long word and too much work. Maybe I'll think about it tomorrow.
