I would hope most of you know what KOL is.

http://www.kingdomofloathing.com/

It has to be the best game you can play on your IRIX box.

If you play, just let me know and feel free to join the Bored@work clan as well.

I am the bringer of Meat!

Bloody hilarious

created an account and will poke around a bit. I'll report back if it keeps my interest long enough.

Yes, the pop culture references are great. There are so many throughout the game. Let me know your username on kol and I can send you some meat.

Registred as ButtHamster, the Disco Bandit. Lowly level 4 so far, but enjoying it quite a lot. Too bad only 40 adventures a day can be done - I'm done playing in well under an hour every day

got enough Meat to buy shiny things, but not enough stats to equip anything worth buying, so hanging on to my purse for now.

That is great. I will send you 100k meat. As for the adventures, you can get more by eating and drinking. The better the food and the drink, the more adventures it will give. Just remember not to get too drunk. :roll:

Recently I felt a unified background for my two-monitor desk setup (one sgi, one windows mounted on a newstar desk mount) might be nice, and have under the last couple of weeks been twiddling around in Maya.

Perhaps someone here would be interested: http://duck.at.shangtai.net/files/unified-bg/

If you like, I can make all the source material available.

Edit: photo of the effect

Neat effect! I downloaded the wallpaper file from your linked site to have a look at it in more detail than the photo. I really like the way the neatly arranged grid of dark spots makes the image look like its on some sort of perforated material. I couldn't see that level of detail in the photo of the whole desk. It looks like you've got a really nice setup there.

Thanks! *bask*

The grille is actually double (a horizontal cylinder, you may see the specular reflection off insides from the side spotlights--coloured logos--if you look closely, the inside has less specular roll-off than the outside so as not to produce distracting lines behind the darker parts) and the tiny holes are bumpmapped so as to look like the grille has thickness :-)

Very nice Staffan! BTW do you have your trackball on the left because of right-hand mouse induced RSI? Because that's what happened to me. As a result now my left hand hurts too... :lol:

Awesome work, duck! Thanks for the wallpaper.

Nope, I'm leftmoused. The trackball is directly connected to the PC because Synergy sometimes doesn't play well with games; there's a SGI puck mouse just out of view beside the teacup (mm.. Zhen Zhu). Now that I think about it, I can't remember why I got the trackball instead of a mouse, some combination of novelty and space saving probably.

Ah a true lefty! I'm ambidextrous in the baseball sense; throw left bat right, but all the sociological research shows that true lefties score well above the average across the board in all categories. For example look at how well organized your computer workspace is, by comparison mine looks like it was organized by hand grenade... :lol:

Yep, true left, even my feet are left first, except when I bicycle (or unicycle). Don't be fooled by the clear desk (not clean, it's covered with dust :-P

), all the mess it out of view... I used to have a fair bunch of USB cables on my desk but they were all eaten by my cat. Strangely he only eats USB cables. :roll:
