Things have been messy lately -- last few days, including today, are going to be marred running around trying to fix up Zach's broken computer, and I'm sitting on a hundred emails.  I should have a beekeeping devlog up within the hour though.  A vacation would be nice, and I'll announce it if I finally get a chance for one, he he he.

Probably way too late and old news but I wonder how many computer techs live in Washington that would happily fix the Adams' computers at cost, if not just completely for free.


Although it would probably be very hard to resist searching through the computer for a dev version, or hooking the drive up to a tech station with a data recovery program to look for deleted dev versions... 

Huh... I probably single-handedly convinced Toady to never take his computer to a tech shop.

If I still lived there (I am in Virginia now...go figure) I would have that thing fixed before it was broken lol

High five fellow Virginian 

Actually at the moment I am getting snowed under on Cape Cod with my grandmother. It'd be a perfect day for DF if I had a computer more powerful than a 1.2ghz netbook with me. Technically playable, but it gets too slow too soon. It's also a really cramped keyboard.

Try some adventuring.

That sucks! its just starting to get a bit warmer here (in Virginia Beach)...which I am very glad about...

Don't dwarves have IR vision anyway? That should alleviate the need for a while 

Right, and a really good sense of smell and laser vision. (heh)
Toady hasn't added anything to do with light perception other than glowing eyes in the dark, it's been made pretty apparent that we shouldn't go by other fantasy worlds as an indication of where things will go.

Of course dwarves don't have a keen sense of smell... they have to put up with THEMSELVES after all...

Just saying, it would only make sense that a cave-adapted species would have better infrared than us sunlubbers. After all, even your typical digital camera can see into the very near IR.

I wonder if elves can see UV light...

[Mel_Vixen]

Well kobolds can see atleast infragreen.

You mean... yellow?

[Mel_Vixen]

huh? What do i mean?

[G-Flex]

Yellow is pretty much directly below green in the visible spectrum. So yeah, infragreen would be yellow.

[Mel_Vixen]

Gflex you combo breaker that was just a bit Wow humor. Too geeky?


Also the term infra green appears in the green hornet but i fear this discussion gets out of hand. Again by me. Seriously i do that just by accident - if not thinking counts as such.

I didn't get the joke; not everybody plays WoW.

[Mel_Vixen]

Neither do i ....
