if channel 79 was fucked up, like would be fuzzy or grainy or have lines in it if it was anolog, all the channels in the hits pack on that freq. would say "one moment please" or some other message.digi its all or nuthing.no fuzzy pics.
all channels included in basic and expanded are anolog. even when they are going through a digital box. always. even digi challes are actually delived to your house in an anolog video stream. the digital box takes the anolog stream and extracts the digi channels out of it. all digital channels are delivered to your cable company via HITS(Headend In The Sky) packs. for example in SLC,UT,anolog channel 79 has HITS pack 1. HITS pack 1 includes channels 120,121,161,162,220,272,401,402,405,501,503 and 851 so all those channels are mpeg2 encoded and STUFFED into the space of one anolog cable channel. so you get hits pack 1 even on an anolog set,it just doesnt know how to pull the 12 streams of audio and video out of channel 79 so it looks like white noise.
seeing mpeg artifacts on a basic and expaned?? then mpeg artifacts are present in the videostream your cable company is recieving.
im not saying you arent seeing them,im saying your cable company is reciving a mpeg2 stream then converting it to anolog and then sending it to you.
well...nytimes you HAVE to reg in order to read...i only reg here at/. so i can read all the crap at -1 without having to set it that way every damn story.there is no HAVE to reg here,just makes it easier because then it remembers i like a -1 nested =)
regarding your.sig....lots of people use extacy that way....it's called "booty bumping" if memory serves. (i have a little sister who goes to lots of raves and her and all her little friends do it this way)
Anyone know how to go about getting a *.state.*.us domain?
*.state.ut.us to be more exact.
have looked all over trying to find out how and even GOOGLE is giving me no love =(
8. Rich media doesn't absolutely require broadband, but it sure helps. And 2002 will be a pivotal year for broadband, which took a lot of lumps in 2001 with the fall of companies like Northpoint, Rhythms, Covad, and Excite@Home. What is key here is the deal for Cox Cable to buy AT&T's cable TV unit. If that goes through (and I think it will), Cox will try to make its big investment pay off by competing for local and long distance phone service over its cable system. Other cable companies will follow suit and the only way for the local phone companies to fight back is with expanded DSL.
i predict that at&t will be bought by comcast,not cox.good chance too since it already happend.

not just support, no more directx updates,no more security patches, no more anything from ms.
I have DSL that runs solid with unwavering 150-158k downloads. I keep asking myself why am I keeping cable?
183 would be 1.5M stupid, so your 150-158k downloads are almost a 1.5M connection
375*8=3.0 you are getting a 3.0 M connection if you are downloading that fast.2 times a 1.5 cap.
so 400kbps=3.2M stupid.thats wayyyyyyyy over a 1.5 M cap.
