Menidurkan bayi menggunakan linux

Ini adalah salah satu contoh, pemanfaatan desktop linux secara maksimal. memanfaatkan script agar bisa mengeject cdrom dan menutup-nya dan ini dilakukan terus secara berulang-ulang sampai bayi anda dibuat tertidur. Jika anda menggunakan sistem operasi linux dirumah script ini boleh dicoba, kalo bisa gunakan cdrom yang sudah tidak dipakai tapi masih bisa membuka dan menutup :), agar cdrom yang baru anda tidak cepat rusak maksudnya. 

Berikut file script baby_rocker.sh

#!/bin/sh
while [ 1 = 1 ]
do
    #eject cdrom
    eject
    
    #pull cdrom tray back in
    eject -t
done

selamat menikmati juga film-nya:
