Pluto: Linux-based Do-everything System
tazzzzz writes "Ever wanted an easy-to-configure, whole-house, internet-accessible, Linux-based VOIP PBX with video, PVR, firewall/router, security system, MP3 player, file server, personal web server, home automation (lights, thermostat) controller? I just came across the Pluto which claims to do all of this (and more, of course!). It'll set you back $15,000 if you're living in a small bachelor pad, but you didn't need that car anyway, did you?"
I'm a stupid moron with an ugly face and big butt and my butt smells and I like to kiss my own butt.
Come for the dupes, stay for the trolls.

I hope /. editors won't give in to such manipulating comments and censor it right away!
i gave away my tv about 2 years ago. i never had a tivo, however, i dont want one.
:) cheers on your freedom!
i gave away my tv because of a tv addiction as i found that if i turned on the tv i couldnt turn it off.
just as you have come to the same realization, i have concluded how pitifull, stupid and useless tv is. i recently turned on a local national news casta and was insulted by how the program talked down to the audience - i fellt like i was in kindergarden beint patronized in a most distrubing way.
the same goes for all other programming. i do still occassionally download star trek enterprise from bittorrent, but to be honest, while i do have the option of downloading any tv show i want off the net i don't bother. whats the point of watching shit?
*shrug* i feel like i have reclaimed a whole part of my life and i have filled it with all kinds of things, one of which is learning linux.
death to tv - most people are addicted to it and don't realize it. if you want to know you are addicted, try going without tv for a week or two straight and no cheating. it's impossible and most people wont be able to do it. infact when i gave up tv i had this weird craving in the evening to sit down pick up the remote and start switching channel.
i bet most people here would go through similar symptons, mine lasted for about a week.
i think the parent of this subthread did the equivalent of the patch 3 step addiction witdrawal treatement and release program.
