I'm convinced they're not only sentient but able to communicate telepathically. It's the only convincing explanation I could come up with as to why a mail server in a previous job would work so long as a small spiral made of solder was underneath it, but became unreliable when it was moved; and why I knew about 5 minutes before arriving to work that it had problems.

I strongly suspect I shouldn't have admitted to any of that in public

Probably not. But I can hardly talk (I'm not on my phone to my mum right now. She's almost as bad as I am for staying up late, but this might be pushing it a little. But when I am, I have been known to. The yeti does to when he's talking to his mum. Or reads. )
