I read it as Greek, first of all. Man am I bummed out, now.

i recognise all the computer hardware, but what's that pinky squishy stuff underneath? doesn't ring a bell.

some NSFW in Color.

Sure, I can get into the idea of a naked chick playing Gameboy--who couldn't? The others, though, seem awfully contrived.

Getting a girl to balance a graphics card on each nipple neither makes a statement nor makes for good visual form.

sorry for the NSFW, would edit but doesn't look like I can...

It says "Pr0n" straightaway. I think that for 99% of the MeFi audience, pr0n = NSFW. Fear not, Rufus.

Kinda boring.

Looking at the numerous bellybutton shots, I'm reminded of that scene in Hot Shots! where Charlie Sheen kept slapping more and more ridiculous foodstuffs onto Valeria Golino's "little sizzling tummy."

I'm going to have to Photoshop in a winkie for this to work on my OS.

No nipples or labias, therefor worksafe? Depends on where you work.

You had me at hello.

A classic 1D MkI with a 24/1.4? Can't fault the man's taste in photo gear -- hawt!

Unfortunately, it's not tab A in slot B type porn.

What, no soldering irons and breadboards?

(Kinda interesting premise. Some of those b&w shots might not look out of place on the walls of some tech startup's headquarters.)

DaShiv, I saw that the file name had 1541 in it, but was dissapointed it wasn't what I was expecting.

That's not geek porn.

Real geek porn has no women in it, just tech stuff.

Lame for geek photography, lame for nude photography.

Give me a desirable piece of technology and place it with the nude, and it's at least intellectually interesting.

Give me a nude nerd with a favorite game controller and it's on topic.

What I've been given here is poor nude pictures that use the model and the technology as soulless props.

Eh. Just looked at more of the color pics, and see there's a little more depth. I still hate it, though :-p

Aaargh! All those memory cards and no antistatic bags!

I read it as Greek, first of all.

Gah, I did the same thing. Then I looked at the photos for a couple of seconds, with my head tilted like the RCA dog, thinking, "I don't get it."

cat5 bondage [sfw]

There's a less sfw group of pics floating around that allegedly cost a Unix sysadmin at a West Coast data center his job (and several people the domains they used to host the photos). I believe I saw it, but it's quite gone now. If anybody can explicate.

Eh, it's a little too SCSI for my tastes.

Those pictures really got my firewire hot-plugged.

Ugh!! What a let-down. See, this is a premise that could have led to some really nice, genuinely erotic pictures. Rather than displaying women as essentially perfect, plasticated barbie dolls, splayed and displayed for male inspection, you could actually portray (gasp!) women with personalities, with their own interests, with an eye for good equipment (pun intended) and and with a geekishly frank, individualistic sexuality - but with a hint of nervous, inexperienced shyness. See? Hot.

Instead? We get this lame, "edgy", un-subtle art-school wank. Really, if they think putting a microchip on some girl's belly button is erotic, even to a "geek", then they have some weird (read: stoopid) ideas.

I guess this is about the closest they get to even vaguely alluring.

What awful photography.

I am both a geek (Software Engineer), and a photographer (11+ years) to boot.

Doesn't it have to be arousing to be porn?

Naked people != pornography, people. Prurient interests, remember?
