Sure. Grab one of the Plug&Play units. It can go to aux-in's on your head unit (if you've got any), or there's some new FM transmitters out there that people have had good success with.
Here's some of the FM transmitters on Sirius' website.
1. The number of auto manufacturers that have Sirius as factory installed is increasing.
SIRIUS' exclusive automotive partners DaimlerChrysler, Ford and BMW represent over 40% of new cars and light trucks sold annually in the United States. Automotive brands currently offering SIRIUS radios in select new car models include BMW, MINI, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeepâ, Nissan, Infiniti, Mazda, Audi, Ford, Lincoln-Mercury, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen. Automotive brands that have announced plans to offer SIRIUS radios in select models include Jaguar, Volvo, Land Rover and Aston Martin. In 2004, SIRIUS radios are expected to be available in nearly 80 different car models, with over 50 of them factory programs. Also Hertz currently offers SIRIUS in 29 vehicle models at 53 major locations around the country. In addition, Penske Companies - Penske Auto Group, United Auto Group and Penske Trucking - are offering SIRIUS radios as a factory installed option, where available, in their cars and trucks through their dealerships.
2. The safe answer is "yes" because of Sirius' advertising slogan: "Censorship_OFF"
XM beat Sirius to the starting gate, but Sirius is gaining ground quickly. According to their CEO, Sirius is slated to hit 1 million subscribers before years' end. This announcement was made well before Howard Stern was signed.
Sirius is the better value, IMHO (Note: Biased, I'm a subscriber)
Sirius: $12.95/Month Includes: 65+ Commercial Free music channels. Sports, Talk, Weather Free on-line music streaming All NFL games NBA (up to 40 games/week) NHL (up to 40 games/week, if they get off their asses.) Some college sports Starting Jan 2, 2006, Howard Stern
XM: Base $9.95/month Includes: 68 Music Channels (up to 2 minutes commercials/hour) Sports/Talk/Weather NASCAR
Extras: Opie & Anthony (additional $1.99/month) Playboy Radio (Additional $1.99/month) On-Line streaming music (Additional $3.99/month)
No kidding. The only thing that saves me some nights of playing Diablo II is hitting the wrong key on the keyboard and ending up hitting ALT-F4. (Why the hell didn't they disable that? or at least bring up a warning first?)
Speaking of which, "Tournamet Poker: No Limit Texas Hold 'Em" is written in Java. The commercial package comes with Windows and Mac Installers. Sadly, the Linux installer isn't included on the CD and appears to be a separate download. I'm going to just copy the files over to my linux box and mess with the classpath to see if I can get it to run.
The company that put it together (Donohoe Digital) is interested in translating other games to computer based games with their Game Development Framework (GDF).
I have gone some days wearing my thumbdrive on a lanyard around my neck at a college campus with a large population of women, and some days without. The number of women who have approached me to ask me out on a date in either case has remained a constant 0.
On the other hand, while wearing one, I had a woman come up to me and ask for help with her artificial intelligence homework.
I think the only way we are going to get decent, scalable telecomms to our door is by paying for it ourselves. Can't rely on the government to roll out this infrastructure.
Ummm... In the context of this article, you've given a complete turnaround in the course of two sentences. In this case, it is the people of these towns that want to build their own fiber-based infrastructure because the private companies for whatever reason won't do it.
If we use your argument, since my city doesn't generate any revenue from the parks it operates, we shouldn't have any parklands maintained by the city.
Yup. I remember an employee trying to claim disability pay. Then someone heard her voice... on the radio, doing DJ work at a radio station in the area.
Needless to say, her disability claim was rejected.
In another case, after a merger, we knew a round of layoffs were coming. Most everyone had taken a day or two of "vacation time" in the previous weeks. Many had gone on interviews with other companies during that time.
One guy, when he was terminated collected his severance package on Friday, then started work at another company the next Monday. (Still getting severance pay for whatever period of time that was).
Sounds a bit like the Ambient Orb that Thinkgeek offers.
There's also a developer interface where any semi-savvy web programmer can control the color of their Orb with a simple http "get" call. Track how full your hard drive is, traffic on your website, Slashdot posts, or your credit-card debt.
I'm kind of glad that this is being done. The only thing I'm worried about is a reputable business being shut down over a black hat spamvertising gampaig... like.. for example... one store paying hacker to spamvertise for a competitor... or a group like Scientology "spamvertising" for xenu.net. (Of course, how do you spamvertise a non-profit website?)
Sometimes, I think people are so bent on the whole "one nation, under god" in the Pledge of Alliegance that they forget that the Pledge ends "with liberty and justice for all"
Just like the actions of the Swift Boat Veterans group should be turning off a bunch of Republicans, but you haven't heard much from anyone there other than John McCain condemning the actions of that group.
I was at JavaOne and either the SAP or Oracle booth was using Shuttle systems for demonstration. The particular model looked good in brushed aluminum... it matched well with the rack it was attached to.
Nope. Product Specs. No TV Out on board, but if you get a video card to fill the PCI Express slot, you can probably pick up a PCI Express video card in the near future that has TV-Out on it.
Hmm... sorry you didn't find anything worth listening to.
Here's what's on Sirius right now.
Actually, there's 4 satellites that Sirius owns, 3 in the sky, one on the ground for backup.
Sure. Grab one of the Plug&Play units. It can go to aux-in's on your head unit (if you've got any), or there's some new FM transmitters out there that people have had good success with.

Here's the Plug-n-play units.
Kenwood has some sort of a universal connector unit coming out in the near future.
I'm not so good a Sirius tech, but some of the people on the forums on SiriusBackstage can help you out.
Then how do you feel about XM's shock-jocks Opie & Anthony?
Oops... won't be subscribing to XM either I guess?
Okay, then skip XM while you're at it, since they've got shock-jocks Opie & Anthony of their own.
In the meantime, those Sirius subscribers can find something else to listen to on one of the other hundred or so Sirius stations. mmmkay?

"Most people still steal music," he said. "We can build the technology but there are still ways for people to steal music."
The Microsoft boss also claimed some domestic familiarity with the issue.
"My 12-year-old at home doesn't want to hear that he can't put all the music that he wants in all of the places that he would like it," he joked.
Looks like we know who is getting the next RIAA suit...
Junior... SUBPOENA'ed!
I'll follow up my own post and say that I just e-mailed the company, and they'll send me a link to download the Linux installer version.
(yeah, a non-automated e-mail response in 3 minutes. Rock on.)

Yes, once I'm done with school and college geek becomes chic.

It's good, but there's some potential for abuse.

There has been intermittent problems with /. rendering the center column slightly over the left sidebar text. You will find this as bug 217527.

Generally, refereshing the page works.
It would also be nice if
Either way, it's probably not getting back into major league baseball.
Yeah, and I just noticed this on a site I need to use for work...
Attention Netscape Users! The FSAFEDS web site now supports Netscape browser versions 6.1, or higher due to accessibility requirements.
Good 'ol 508. Funny thing is that their site worked on Firefox anyways. (It's mostly forms, html pages, & a few PDF's.)
