The GNOME Overlords have DECREED that thou shalt NOT power your computer off.

The GNOME Overlords further DECREE that all BLASPHEMERS who express such SICK and TWISTED desires shall choose between banishment to Extension-Land and carpal-tunnel syndrome from sixty-two mouse-clicks while holding down Ctrl-Alt-Shift-Meta-Windows to satisfy their BLASPHEMY.
