    Isn't that what instant messaging is for?

    You want a whole client server suite to do something
    that netscape-remote and a few minutes of scripting would do? Just to save a mouseclick.....
    Sounds like one of those hairbrained late 90's
    shared browser .bombs to me.

    Most likely it was sshd, but considering that every
    service that is running on that machine has had a least one remote exploit released it's NOT hard to wonder. Then there's the issue of telnet, maybe it was a simple sniffer that did them in.

  17. Re:Why do I want digital TV? on FCC Wading Into Digital TV Quagmire · · Score: 1

    yeah I've got TCI digital cable and I've got to say for the most part it sucks.
    Often digital channels are pixilated, you don't get that many more channels, most of the extras
    are PPV, the tuner is slow as hell, and in unreliably decodes scrambled services like HBO.

    Not to mention you can't record without going
    through the digital tuner (watch while recording).

    The box TCI uses is lame, no automation at all
    which breaks recording even more.

    I for one am glad the fcc is gonna bust some ballz.
