You guys have crappy keyboards I see. You should upgrade.

Good luck with the move!

While certainly not as nice as, say, a G15, those little Dell USB keyboards are actually pretty nice.

They're tiny since the bezel conforms to the shape of the keyboard, yet the keyboard itself is still full-sized. They're also very easy to clean. The keys have a nice range of movement and are nicely weighted so if you touch type, you almost never make accidental 'landing' strikes.

While they come standard with most 'business-class' Dell workstation PCs these days. I wouldn't mind buying one separate to use as a 'lug-around' keyboard for configuring headless machines.

Now the Dell machines themselves tend to have some crappy hardware. The on-board audio for the Optiplex line is notoriously flaky.

I guess, I'm a keyboard snob. I like th curved, ergonomic keyboards. They don't make my wrists hurt.

OMG!! Please add these costume designs now!

Okay, since it is obviously only affecting me, can someone repost links to the images Ex Libris posted? Unless I quote her message, which reveals the HTML, the links in her posts all point to the main Photobucket page, not to the pics she actually linked to (and if I try pasting the links from the HTML code it just times out trying to pull up the images).

Thanks!

The pics are still timing out. It may just be my work PC, which I think is using a tin can and string to connect to the Internet. I'll check when I'm home. Thanks again, though.

.... damn, he gets to OPENLY display all thsoe non-Co* games in his cubicle? Is that standard NC^2 policy, or is he just lording his Boss-liness over you all? ^_^

By the by: tell Posi to get his butt over to the [u]Comic and Hero/Villain Culture[u] forum, and post his Gamertag on the Exchange thread, so it'll have two redname entries. ^_^ I see that there Halo3 LE helmet on that shelfof his ...

Finding out my gamertag is not impossible without me posting in the Gamertag Exchange. I know one CoH player who already found it and added me to his friends list. It just takes a little internet savvy and digging.

Who wants to bet that it's Positron?

Is there a badge for these scavenger hunts, Positron? Mind you, I'm not specifically asking for one, just inquiring if one exists.

If you're at work, your job network doubtless has a block in place for image hosting places.

Nope, no blocking here -- we only have five employees and believe me, none of us are blocking anything -- for better or worse.

Posi, glad to see the w00tie, the w00t mascot, at the head of the shelf! I was worried he'd get lost!

Ex Libris rescues a stray Pitbull, we found a home we think!








Ken and his fish made it swimmingly!








Jay shows all his sexy...well not all, there is no camera that can contain all his 'sexy.'

Does a silly "squee" dance over JLove's "Masters of the Universe" collection!

or at least that's what it looks like from here ...

Ok which dev is Ken?

As for Jay - all i can say is:

where does he get all those wonderful toys!

<Considers sending Jay some action figures for more costume idea references >

 

Posted

Awwwww, the pitbull.

I literally burst out laughing at Jay's area because of how awesome it is. Just seeing him hanging out in his area, it's so cool. xD

 

Posted

*whistles*

Jay's toy collection rivals what mine used to be before the fire...

That's something epic, there.

<also considers sending Jay toys for costume idearz.>

So, y'all like your new digs?

Meh. I want a badge for the Candy Cane salvage. Seriously, check back - I suggested an extremely similar setup as an Easter/Spring event. ^_^

(In all seriousness, it's nifty to see an idea I posted here, actually end up in-game - whether because I posted it, or not.)

Not to be a party pooper, but you may want to make sure your city/township doesn't have a law against owning pit bulls. IIRC there's at least one city in Cali that does. (When laws like this get passed, some folks just abandon the dogs. Sad really.)
