How do you even get boring on a Mac??
Now serious, always choose things that contribute to yourself and to your wisdom, read books or articles, watch movies, some porn now and then.....
I don't like reading books, I don't have patience for watching movies and there's no man that is watching porn 24/7.
I'm reading many (news-) articles day, but sometimes you want to do something to relax. 
This...
I was reading through the history of gaming this morning, and then I somehow ended up on a page about jazz music.
Work on fixing layouts and functionality problems in the FileMaker Pro database I wrote and maintain as a volunteer or go clean my woodworking shop.
Or if I'm really bored I'll fold laundry.

There's got to be something that you find exciting. Go and do it, or get a book on Amazon about it and educate yourself.
Isn't there a strong link between boredom and creativity? I sure do hope so and finally everything would make sense again..
and re that 4k stuff, I've absolutely no clue what you're talking about, but it sounds very important. I hope there will be some front page news around here soon covering that topic, since it sounds like a killer argument for getting a retina MBP??

I would think creativity derives from curiosity coupled with having free time to indulge in exploration.
Boredom seems like the result of being incurious and uninterested.
Wouldn't think of it as a dogma. Sometimes when I'm bored it is that I think of sth. different, and not when my mind is already occupied. But I don't disagree necessarily, it's just that out of sth. bad sth. very beautiful can emerge. *cough*
Don't click on it! The site will crash! It's the same if you type in Google on the Google website. It brings down the whole Internet!

If I'm not near a computer, Peggle / Peggle Nights for the win.

When I'm bored, i browse the web, play Pokemon Yellow on a emulator, listen to spotify, and when i dont have computer access, read or sleep
...Wikipedia has a lot of words linked, and so sometimes I might look up information about a book, and then I end up reading like 100 pages about the origin of the genre, what other works are notable, and like what kind of paper they are usually printed on. And then I end up reading about all the different types of paper there is, and it starts all over again, and then I end up on a page about cheese.
This FTW. I have stumbled across so much mindlessly amusing and dubiously factual information by grazing from one Wiki article to the next.
