There's this little thing called the Oscars. And see, the people that want to get awards, well, they like release these special DVDs. They send these DVDs to the people who actually pick the Oscar winners. And always looking for a quick buck, someone ran DVD2DIVX on their copy and sorta released it to the Internet.

I also wish that TiVo would allow me to jump ahead 15-30 seconds instead of larger amounts. that way I don't have to fast forward through an ad or show, but I can jump. There are increments that I can jump through now, but they look to be 10-15mins... not seconds.

Then hit the button to the lower right of your pause key.
Your job as a minor is to attend school, do your homework, and graduate. That's your job - it's what you do to earn the food/shelter/clothing your parents provide to you. It's what is expected of you. Deal with it.
All I wanted was to dump the crappy built-in modem that has died twice in 3 years and use my internet link to get the guide information.
You mean this, this or even this? Ethernet-based guide data has been available for the Series 1 TiVo for well over a year now (probably more like two years by now). Sure, these options cost you $70, but they do give you that functionality you crave so strongly.
Now if you're strapped for cash, there's a free way to get guide data without buying an ethernet card (you still must have a subscription of course). It's called ppp over serial - all Series 1 have a serial port and came with a serial port adapter (9pin to your PC). The procedure is well documented here.
Blitzoid, your posting would be a bit more insightful if it mentioned the fact that practicallyALL HDTVs one can buy at Circuit City/Best Buy/etc REQUIRE AN EXTERNAL HDTV SIGNAL BOX LIKE THE ONE IN THIS ARTICLE.
Having been responsible for installing and managing OWA setups, I'd strongly recommend an imap client over OWA.
Someone who is used to the intermediate user features of Outlook (i.e. message filtering and folders [specifically, marking a group of message for moving into folders]) will find OWA a major PITA.
Sure, OWA is great for simple access to e-mail from a public kiosk. But OWA simply won't please the daily user of an Exchange e-mail system.
1. Cancel Farscape because of money. 2. Run non-SF crap like Crossing over and Dream
Team (and soon Scare Tactics). 2. Spend tons of money on Spielberg to do Taken. 3. Spend tons of money on a show that was NEVER
any good (Battlestar Galactica).
I'll be boycotting BSG like I did Taken. Anyone remember when MTV played music videos? Same thing is happening with SciFi. At some point seing actual science fiction will be a rare oddity on SciFi.
I wish I had a mod point for you. Crippled is certainly correct. With lack of integration into Windows, the freeware version is useless, unless someone can come up with a reason to not use 6.58...
How are Apple Computers and Green Telecommunications simliar? One builds computers and the other provides bits over copper. I wouldn't go to Apple Computers to get a broadband connection. I wouldn't go to Green Telecommuncations to get a Mac. Seems to me there IS a big difference.
Mr. Chen questions this as well:
"The fact that my business is telecommunications and has nothing whatsoever to do with computer manufacturing seems to be irrelevant under the law," Mr Cheng said.
Where is the dilution of the Apple Computer trademark?
Are you referring to.MAC - a value added service which still requires the consumer to go elsewhere for bits over copper?

Funny story about the $2. Did the guy notice the big loogey and the nose boogers in the middle of his burrito?
Er, already fixed. I get a 404 error when I go there (with appropriate e-mail addresses).

If you RTFA you'll have the answer to your own question.
How would that be ironic? That's anti-ironic.

Good question.
The global address list can be queried via LDAP.
But you're right about calendars and tasks. Those would not be accessible through imap. For those I'd have to send them to OWA.

Fuck karma.

And posting Anon Coward is a waste since their browsers show your real name on their screen.
Wondering if I'll get modded down for listing a non-SF author. But hey, you listed mostly non-SF authors.
Have you tried DeLint? Great urban myth stories with lots of depth and characterization.
Since you're a fantasy/horror person looking for SF, here's a cross-over.
His fantasy was good for three books, then sucked for another three books (he didn't want to write the second trilogy if you believe the legends...)
However, his Gap series ROCKS.
Great author. What I'd consider hard SF.
Too bad he died a few months back.
