There are 2 main reasons I see that more people to not have a Tivo 1) It is competing products, try getting the numbers for people with a DVR. Most people I know have a cable or satellite or U-verse DVR instead. While truely being more expensive int he long run they feel the $24 a month is less expensive than a few hundred for a HD tivo plus the monthly or lifetime service. However they are getting killed because you are locked into using local cable company. HD will only use cable card and you can use a IR transmitter to change the channel on a satellite box for non-HD but the channel changing is painfully slow and it will occasionally miss the channel change and you wont have your show recorded.
2) Their killer app would be to have while house DVR system where by you have a single dual tuner HD tivo to records all shows. Then you would purchase individual client boxes (100-200 price range) that have a small HD, ethernet connection and remote receiver. This way you can call up your recordings on any TV in your house and start the video stream immediately rather than spending hundreds on individual tivos, service agreements, and setting up recordings.
All/. readers are well aware of our erosion of freedoms when it comes to fair use and DRM. The fact that Bill did not copyright his work yes can still live a good and his original comics are popular need to be seen as an example when corporate giants are pushing to extend their copyright privileges for hundreds of years. I live in the town where Charles Schultz (Peanuts) lived a good portion of his life, I know his kids and how much money they have all given to charities and community development. I respect the family for what they do but I respect Bill far more allowing his work to be part of global comminuty and not restricting who can even draw his characters even not for profit. Bill may not be the third largest earning dead celebrity (http://www.forbes.com/2007/10/26/top-dead-celebrity-biz-media-deadcelebs07-cz_lg_1029celeb_slide_4.html) but we all owe him a big thank you for his pioneering efforts whether intentional or not
"As part of the overall counter-UAV demonstration, Boeing also successfully test-fired a lightweight 25mm machine gun from the Laser Avenger platform to potentially further the hybrid directed energy/kinetic energy capability against UAV threats." I hope the person demonstrating said, "He is too close for lasers, switching to guns"

Look who is Bush's new best friend. Czech republic has some beautiful places but alot of it has been exploited and destroyed; mostly by communism. Their economy is not doing well and they have a high unemployment rate, of the 8 mil czechs in the world 1 mil live in the US. Klaus is just another short sighted politician who only concern is how much money he and his friends can make in the short term. If he can destroy the environment and get paid to put a foreign missle defence system in the country, that is fine with him.
It is currently out of print is is selling for hundreds for an unopened copy (see wikipedia for more info). Mystery Science Theater 3000: the movie would be prefect for fan who wish to buy the movie after the studio feels its not worth stamping CDs.

1) Never have your chips designed where they are manufactured 2) Don't hire a company where you have to stutter to say their name.
I doubt the point of this story was about accuracy but more about reporting on events in the United States; more specifically the evils of democracy and capitalism. The newspaper wanted to show the Chinese people that the US government is greedy and how the Chinese government does so much more for the people. The paper won't car about being wrong, yes, they might print a small retraction on page 25 but few people will see that. All they will remember is that the capitol building contains concession stands and congress wants to spend millions on a retractable roof. This story doesn't make the newspaper look bad, they made their point whether the news was factual or not. Now this may be a good thing that they will reprint dis-information if we ever go to war (think Russia and the end of the Cuban missile crisis). This does not make the Chinese people think any better of Americans.

Unfortunately no. But that woudl be cool to breadboard a optical circut. Unfortunately we have to resort to special cutting and polishing tools just to connect a few components together.
How to piss a optical network admin off: go to the long haul switch and yank a few wires out, they will be there for hours redoing all the lines.
How much interference do you think there is in space? The ISS is still using the specially made Pentiums that protect from all that interference.
How long is ISS? Yes they can have relay stations scattered through out but how about when they repaired Hubble. Satellites are designed to protect their internal circuitry, if you are on the other side of a satellite working you will get a lot of signal degradation.
I am not staying that it is a horrible idea, it will certainly make space safer and easier but there are other wireless networking standards with a greater range.
As you may be able to tell from the other posts it remains harmless intill dry. Thats why filter paper is used. After the water drips out through the filter paper it becomes volitile to: a feather, air currents, glass rod, sophomore chem student's fingers;)

the London and Tokyo urban planners have the equivalent intelligence to a single celled creature?

Rob, stop telling your credit card companies that you make $2.5 mil a year and you will stop getting rich-people spam. :)
Then I won't say how many time I read the ST encyclopedia and technical manual ;)
The future is here!
The running joke in Deep Space 9 about self-sealing stem bolts is about to become a reality.
The news claimed that it was an optical illustion of the sun playing with the upper atmosphere. Ya, right, like I didn't hear that in MIB.
;)
You know it was the replicator controled Tok'ra ship falling to earth.
This article erroneously make the assumption that the windows version is good software :)
I don't think I would be able to stand the product placements. That is just one thing that seriously ruins his movies.

There are plenty of test and measurement equipment available for the optical market. Look around Agilent's T&M lightwave page.
At my old school we used names of elements on the periodic table; really helped me memorize them for chemistry.
At home/out business we use the name of the star trek ships eg: enterprise, nebula, defiant, and so on.
In college the various servers are named for local cities; Easy to remember.

I would think that they would go with a wireless networking standard that allows for greater distance.
In space no one can hear you scream...
if you are more than a few hundred yards away.
I bet the system clock is always off
Cesium...get it....cesium...as in the atomic clock..
You are right that was not funny.
