thanks for the tip. I'll take a peel at the replay. although I admit, I love my TiVO. just pissed about the mac support vanishing and the lack of any reasonable explanations from TiVo.
about time they replaced the dumb one. only took what, 7 years? these guy can turn on a dime!
so how much more press will MS get for this vapor thing they talk about. again, it's not actually a real thing. just a promise. just a distraction from REAL things. so what REAL thing was released that this is supposed to distract me from? that would interest me.
I've seem MS screenshots before, they look like windows will bells on. ho hum. watching slugs crawl across the sidewalk is more interesting.
it's Microsoft that seeminly hates people. It shows in the condescending way they treat everyone. The way they lock people in. The way they frustrate the user at all opportunity. the way they change their licensing at will. The way they fail to play well with anyone or anything that is not them.
I am not well studied in this space elevator thingamajig
So what happens to the elevator when a huge storm comes into contact with it?
I expect there are places that mitigate this, but everyplace has weather. Is this not an issue? Or is this something we can rebuild quickly and cheaply if wiped out by a freak storm?
I do think it would be great to be able to take a ride in one. could put the space needle out of business.

If big government had done this 10 years ago, HTTP, DNS, FTP, SSH all of it would be replaced by one simple do all example of innovation.

I am sure we'll be better off if they get a chance today.
so kudos to sony for showing us why we should not use linux? (me, I use OS X and the frequently dead FreeBSD)
or perhaps kudos to sony for showing us why not to purchase sony?
I have to give credit to sony for making it even more clear why we should not be using windows.
Is this not a public service of the highest order?
It's the curse of Novell. over the course of their history they have been closely tied to many many failing disasters.
and who founded Caldera? and what are they now?

How do you then ensure that the music and player you buy today will not be incompatible with your player, online store or the OS?"
buy the actual cd?
I think the proof this product was sabotaged is in the NAME.
it's unbearably lame

Until they re-support Macintosh, TiVO is "dead to me"

MS admits to sending out 18 million pieces of spam.
prosecute them, law breaking to catch law breakers is the job of the cops.
they admitted it, should be an open and shut case.
someone should patent the most widely used method of taking a dump.
then all toilet makers would be forced to put meters on for the royalties.
after about 5 years some politician somewhere would wonder what the heck happened to free dumps, rise up an flush this idiot patent system.

gitmo_baby();
}
so if I write totally cool makes a million $$ code for my company, they own it and retain all rights and $$ for it.
but if I write bad code, I am "resposnsible"?
of course in good slashdot practice, I didn't actually read the article....
wow, and I though television had sunk to it's lowest already.
moore's law applies to the bottom end too, eh?

It Microsoft that is the one doing the hating.
does it run Linux?
sheesh, now MS is going to have to rule TV too, having that bad case of google envy.

they should quit being namby pamby managers and start cracking the damn whip over there.
lots of yelling and screaming, that always works.
maybe toss a chair. threaten some air supplies and such
that will get them over the hump
Just as long as they don't test their shit on poor defenseless animals, they can open as many labs as they want. I say.
so if people had a personal version, they could avoid getting photographed repeatedly in city streets?
they will have to license such a device as to prevent terrorists from being able to use them to avoid being identified.
just think, you are a wedding photographer, and a number of people forget to turn off their personal photo-obsfucators (Apples iNoPhoto). the horror.
since in this argument, any twisted logic can be considered meaningful, I toss this obvious one out.
if they didn't release music, there would not be anything to pirate.
