    Yup. Aluminum is not magnetic, so as long as it doesn't cover your earpeice everything should be fine. However, if your earpeice is analog, subliminal messages me be superimposed into the normal signal by your toaster.

  7. Re:Tivo does contribute back on Sony's Linux DVR Can Record Two Weeks of TV · · Score: 1

    They also don't go around suing thier customers. I have delt with TiVo's customer service before when my TiVo was having the green line problem, and they can't be expected to help you if you break something, but if the problem isn't something you broke in your hacking efforts, they still help.

    They also haven't gone DMCA on the people bypassing thier security measures, including... getting around thier signed kernel and init scrips, extracting and inserting video, preventing the unit from scrambling the video to facilitate extraction, etc.

    Stuff that most definatly does voilate the DMCA.

    They realize that the hackers adore them for this, which gets them more sales :)

    I personaly bought a TiVo over a ReplayTV because of the hacking community behind TiVo.

  8. Re:Are these TiVos? on Sony's Linux DVR Can Record Two Weeks of TV · · Score: 1

    This is no longer true. Check out this guy's page on upgrading his TiVo to a single 300 GB drive. My TiVo currently has a pair of 120GB drives in it, giving me just over 300 hours of recording time, and yes, it does fill up.

    The Davis Joint Unified School District uses it on thier WAN (12 schools, and 15 T1s) (or is it a MAN?)

    RIt would invalidate the Microsoft Shared Source license. It would also eliminate Microsoft's method for the distribution of the Windows operating system, which is pre-loaded by hard drive manufacturers onto disk drives they deliver by the hundreds of thousands to PC manufacturers.

  15. Re:I have one on Time Warner Cable NYC Begins DVR Distribution · · Score: 1

    My TiVo only ever locks up if I'm running TiVo web on it (and even then, it continues recording shows, the interface just stops responding to input). And yes, the modems fry to easily, but that is easily solved with a surge protector.

    TiVo is smart enough not to duplicate recordings. The other nice feature is wishlists. They let you record by actor, keyword, director, etc.

  17. Re:geez? on Turning Your Mac Into a Serial Console Server · · Score: 1

    Try one of these with one of these. A $500/server solution... but it'll work. You could get a multiport serial ethernet server for a lower per-server cost.
