It does - I was assuming that based on the slightly earlier versions: | |||
-"A man trapped by boredom can use the 'box' merely to stave off boredom." | |||
-"A guy trapped by boredom can use the 'box' for nothing but to stave off boredom." | |||
...that the intended interpretation was "at a bare minimum, it'll still help" | |||
Given the old TL/edit, the less likely (but still plausible) interp was your most recent "at best" version - i.e. somethnig like "all a box can do for a man trapped by boredom, is just the bare minimum." Not sure which was the original intended meaning though. [[User:Grrarr|Grrarr]] ([[User talk:Grrarr|talk]]) 16:21, 5 April 2013 (CDT) | |||
