oh man, i keep committing this crime.  for some reason i burnt in my
brain that whenever you yield(), the thread doesn't die, it just idles
doing nothing while the other threads get scheduled, until the entire
proc dies.  i really have to read libthread again, or nemo's 9intro
section on the matter, which was very concise.

i agree, but implementing it with the conclusion struct seemed like
the simplest idea atm.  in the end it's the same process, so it will
have to wait (blocking) those five seconds after printing the banner,
no matter the thread.  but it can be done better for sure.

cool, i look forward to that.
