As promised, today I brought my TARDIS hub back to the office and I finally have plenty of USB ports within easy reach.R2D2 is getting along nicely with the new addition (click images for the larger versions):
Of course, I couldn’t bring the TARDIS in without some daleks showing up. You see the black one menacing my poor police box there. They’re lurking in many corners. See:
This one thinks he’s being crafty:
I also brought back my photos since they always bring a smile to my face. Cute kids will do that to you.
I’m trying to decide if my desk is geeky enough or if I need to add a Doctor action figure to round it all out.
Last week I determined that I needed a new USB hub. The one I was using got dangerously hot, even just sitting there with an idle flash drive plugged in. Untenable. So I found a hub online. Say hello to my little friend:
He’s surrounded by several of the devices that I need to now plug into him. Every time I do, he emits movie-correct beep beep boop sounds, much to the delight of my co-workers.
Can you identify all that crap? A pat on the head goes to anyone who can. I’ll give you a hint on the penguin: it’s actually a USB flash drive with Ubuntu pre-loaded. R2 is also surrounded by my fancy Logitech keyboard and mouse, seen here:
The last time I worked here I had a pretty geeky cubicle with a TARDIS hub and Daleks menacing me from every corner. I think I need to get back to that. I’ll get (yet another) hub for my desk at home that’s not quite as fun then bring the Doctor Who toys back.
Any other suggestions for geeking out my cubicle?
