I have the tw dvr. I can tell it to record just first run Enterprise, or just Episodes coming on at Wed at 9. Perhaps I have a different box/software revision. Also, I _CAN_ hit record and go and if I've been watching the show, it grabs the "live cache" as someone else has called it and includes it too. So if I'm 15 min into a 30 min show and i hit record, it records the whole 30 min show.
Please re-read parent. It answers the questions you pose. Also, this is getting to be a nastily nested thread. If you wish, you may contact me via email.
I would hope developers would produce quality action games rather than RPGs. RPGs bore the hell out of me and I try to get into them, but I end up not caring and then that passes into anger that I wasted a period of my life inside the game.
Games like Midtown Madness 3 is what gaming is about to me. It's a quick game I can pick up without thinking about what level I am and instantly play with online and real life friends on xbox live.
EA makes some awesome games and they need to pull their finger out of their ass and introduce online play on the xbox.
I don't see how my statement is 'silly', but rather not in accord with yours. You're right though; anything that helps the xbox sales is a good thing to attract developers of hopefully non-rpg games. As for your snes comment, no I did not know anything about squaresoft's relationship with nintendo. I knew after I played Legend of Zelda on my gameboy and then later traded it for kirby's dreamland(another awesome game, I loved it 400 times better than zelda), that RPGs were not for me. I played games like lethal enforcers(guncon) and mario brothers on my snes.
I hate Paris Hilton a lot. She is now around 70% of my spam which is currently at about 20 a day. I use spamassassin though and I don't see spam unless I go to my spam folder. I'm at 100% accuracy for positives, negatives. I love bayes and AWL.
You obviously haven't played many xbox games. Either that or you're a big RPG fan. Personally, I hate RPGs, and I'm glad there aren't that many for the xbox. I love Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge, Project Gotham Racing, Jet Grind Radio 2, Project Gotham Racing 2, SSX Tricky(yes i know it's on ps2), and all my other games. The online play on the xbox is superior as there is a standard. All your friends are on your friends list no matter what game you play and you can send cross invites and just do voice chat without even having a game in at all! The graphics are visually superior in every way to the ps2, except for ssx tricky. I think they ported that directly from the ugly jaggy ps2 version. The best looking game out for the ps2 is Socom II, and it doesn't even compare to one of the first and flagship games for the xbox: Halo: Combat Evolved.
There are a lot of games out for the xbox now, even though it was a couple years behind the ps2 in its release. I know you think it makes you a "cool guy" to diss microsoft on slashdot, but their console really is great and so is Microsoft Game Studios. I think it used to be Bungie, but man, do they ever crank out some awesome games!
Just because a console has 2 cross-platform games doesn't make it useless. I love my xbox and I have stopped playing pc games altogether.
Does it have the memory card thing on IT so you can plug the headset into it for live? That's what I really need. A wireless controller is useless for live if you want to use the communicator unless the memory card slots are on the controller instead of the plug.
First of all what is so hard about including a link rather than a broken url.
Aside from that, I do use the Cruzer Mini 256MB every day in both linux and windows. I even use it in yellow dog linux on my iBook and of course in mac os x.
Linux detects it as a scsi device, usually/dev/sdb7 for me.
Anyone remember Ellen Feiss? How come nobody obsesses over her anymore? Poor girl; her career was like beep beep boop beeeep. And she was like, a really good actress.
How can I do this in sendmail. I like to check on spams that are slightly over my threshold(5), but I'd like to chunk everything over 10 automagically.
Yes, I am kidding. Also, here is the email i sent our buddy: ------------- In regards to your "bottom line" at the end of the article entitled: Commercial solutions win, spam loses, Nov 14th, you stated it was much harder to install, configure, and keep running.
Although it isn't point and click like with windows, you said it was installed WITH red hat 9. All you had to do was add::0fw | spamc to your/etc/procmailrc files to make it an enterprise wide spam filter.
You also said it has scanty documentation, but it has full documentation for every configurable option available on their site, spamassassin.org.
You said 63% spam identification??? What did you have your threshold set to? 9? or some other high integer? I have mine set to 5 and I have a spam catching percent greater than 99%.
"But just because the software is installed does not mean it will work -- filtering criteria must be added manually, and until that's done nothing is filtered out." -- What is that??? You can edit the scores but all the scores have default values that are very good and require NO editing. I can understand if you are a linux/*nix newbie, but you should have a disclaimer in your article instead of bashing an open source project that works quite well with no configuration other than procmail.
As far as the whitelisting you said that could not be done by normal users: first: there are many web(php and perl) applications that let you do this over the web and also will let you view quarantined mail over the web. Second: from the spamassassin man page: -W, --add-to-whitelist Add addresses in mail to whitelist (AWL)
>From your article again: "There are blacklists available that you can subscribe to, and some are updated regularly, but these are noncommercial lists with no guarantees." Those "non-commercial" lists are used by ALL the commercial products. In fact, one of the major commercial antispam product companies just bought spamcop to ensure its success in the future. Those blacklists are not ones you have to "subscribe to" as your purport, but are already used. Vipul's razor which IS a signature product used by CloudMark's commercials software is automatically used if found. You can install that from an rpm. In your chart, you said that SA cannot use signature based scans.
To keep SA up to date, guess what you type. up2date spamassassin. OH MY GOODNESS!!! That was very difficult. Or if you want, since you're using red hat 9, you can type yum upgrade spamassassin.
"Filtering rules are relatively basic, and although there is a Bayesian filter available, it is not part of the distribution -- and I wasn't able to get it working for this review." Filtering rules are not basic in any form and Bayesian filter is included. Another lie(a disturbing trend for a "journalist"). Simply add use_bayes 1 to the local.cf configuration file.
Where to begin? "It looks for keywords in the subject or body of e-mails, but is frustrated by words not in the dictionary, such as "V!agra," or words that contain invisible HTML characters." I get TONS of spam both in the enterprise and at home and spamassassin gets more than 99% of it with 0 false positives. Believe me, it gets the "vee ag ra" and the "v!agra" and variants. 100% of the time, in fact.
Your chart said no end user access to quarantined mail, but you can easily put it into any folder you want because spamassassin writes a header: X-Spam-Status: Yes. That means you can also put into/etc/procmailrc the following::0: * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes $HOME/mail/Spam
And like Emeril, BAM! Enterprise wide filtering and quarantining of mail into a Spam folder.
Now, I've posted on why it's time to pay up or admit you're a pirate.
Arg Maties!! If ye be perpetuating the myth that boarding a ship and stealing booty(physical, tangible goods) is the same as copyright infringement, then you are mistaken.
I am so sick of hearing people say that "it's just like shoplifting". If I wasn't going to pay for it, and I didn't deprive anyone else of the opportunity to purchase it, where is the monetary loss? I fail to see it.
If I couldn't download roms to play, that doesn't mean I was going to go out and purchase a Neo Geo machine, a bunch of pinball machines, and a Mortal Kombat 3 machine. Not only can't I afford several thousand for each of those, but I have no room for it.
Copying bits is not stealing physical property. It is sharing, and companies do not like people to share. Chris Benard
im at work right now, email me at chris at talkingNOSPIZAMtoad.com and i can help you get it working. it's just a port you have to forward. i think it's 5100. try that
Did I hear you right, did I hear what you're saying, that you're gunna make a copy of a game without payin'? Come on guys!!! I thought you knew better, don't copy that floppy.
I own an Xbox and I used to own a ps2. I broke it and took it back to best buy under my service plan and got an xbox. It is sooooo much better as a gaming platform and the online gaming is superb. On the ps2 you get to pay a monthly fee for each game you play unless the publisher is nice enough to give you a flat rate for all the games from that publisher/cartel(sony). Xbox live is a VERY low YEARLY fee of 45 bucks. That's $3.75 a month!!! For EVERY Live GAME!!!!
Bottom line, ps2 online gaming pricing/value/experience sucks compared to that of xbox. I hate a lot of things MS does, but the xbox isn't one of them. I love the games they make too. If you haven't played Midtown Madness 3 for the xbox, you haven't lived. The Live! gameplay really brings the game to life. RENT it at least and then you will buy it.
Oh and just to add...the ps2 only supports 5.1 in cutscenes whereas the xbox supports it ingame and all games I have actually use it. Xbox supports HDTV resolutions and all games support at least 480 so it actually RENDERS a wider picture on my 55" 16:9 samsung.
