Ye_soft_pipes/play_on

Verses taken from John Keats’s poem “Ode on a Grecian Urn” (1819)

The poet loops around a Greek urn, querying it. “What leaf-fring'd legend haunts about thy shape / Of deities or mortals, or of both?”

He sees the hero in the dark of a bedroom, face lit blue by PC tower LEDs. “What men or gods are these? What maidens loth? / What mad pursuit? What struggle to escape?”

Upgrade to liquid cooling. Run the code silently to eternity. “Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard / Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on.”
