Nice article, but I stopped reading after the M$ word. Sorry, but my trusty Series2 Tivo and Phillips DVP642 can do all that at a fraction of the cost of his equipment.
Just what we need, big brother trying to be our parents. Whatever happened to parenting skills? Your son wants the game so you tell him heck no, you ain't getting it. Simple, easy, done. Why do we need government telling us what is good and bad for our children?
Here in the states, your Social Security number has been turned into an ID number for everything. Banks, insurance companies, driver's license, etc..
Computer records have replaced paper filing systems in most organizations. Since more than one person may share the same name, accurate retrieval of information works best if each file is assigned a unique number. Many businesses and government agencies believe the Social Security number is tailor-made for this purpose.

this was exactly the reason I choose to purchase a used Series1 Tivo off eBay. I didn't want the DRM crap and the sucky transfer speeds. I hope you know why its that slow is because series2 is USB 1. You'll be lucky if you get 500kb/s. It maybe harder and more expensive to upgrade, but the troubles you guys are having transferring isn't true.
I purchased a TurboNet card for the inside expansion slot. This gives me true 100mbit access. 900mb in 30 minutes... right.. try 10 minutes with this sucker.
Upgraded the image to 3.0 with the Instant Cake imaging CD. This also includes all the cool tools like tivoweb, tivoftp, etc..
All that remains is to extract the MPEGs to my computer. And that is handled with TyStudio. Its a client/server operation and works very well.
Now see? That wasn't so bad. Oh, on eBay my Series1 was $56 including shipping!
That would be true if they were Iranian American students here in the states. But, no, they are a loosely government sponsored news website, based in Iran. Therefore, they don't have the rights of Americans. They should take it up with their government for freedoms we are used to.
Dude, you're missing the point. Freedom of expression isn't guaranteed to FOREIGNERS. They can host their website on some Iranian equivalent of RackSpace and do whatever they want.
The Kyoto protocol just allows popluting countries to poplute more by buying "credits" from less poluting countries. The US did a good thing by throwing the finger at Kyoto for such a bogus treaty.
My favorite episode was when Starbuck crash lands her jumper on an asteroid and the only way off of it is to fly the Cyclon plane. And there she finds its a living, breathing... Oops.. too much spoilage!;)
Don't worry, you'll have to wait for 2 months before that episode.
If they didn't want people to download it then DON'T SHOW IT EARLY! It's simple. For all I know, Sky One had exclusive rights or they put some money down for production costs and they expected to air them early.
Just because I have them downloaded doesn't mean I won't watch it to help the ratings. Not all sci-fi heads are morons. It does occur to us that if nobody watches it on SciFi then there won't be a next year. We did what we did because we couldn't wait the four months and wanted it NOW!
Several examples of an easy backup. In KDE, drag and drop and select "Copy". Duh...
For the more typing inclined people, create a directory and do this:
Slashdot Mirror
That's still too much. My 100mhz Tivo can do all that and then some.

Pass a law for nothing!
Constipated? Pass a Law against it!
Replace common sense with government BS? PASS A LAW!
Maybe an underground water source? From those 2 pictures, the sand looks like wet beach sand.
Simple... leave the country. Or the geek way would be to use an anonymous proxy, like these for example.
All you need is a Tivo Series2 with JavaHMO.

Intel's dual core chips, expect a speed decrease. HT is pathetic.

Actually, to be correct, we get more oil from Venezula than the Middle East.

Damn... Started going good, then WAAAAY down. Thanks anyway ;)
Ouch, the truth must hurt ;)

Right on bro! A catastrophe is always a good thing. This planet is already over populated and its time for a good plague or something.

People in the know were already watching it on Sky One out of the United Kingdom. It's already up to the 12th episode, so NANNER NANNER NANNER!
That's too bad. I'm on Internet2 and it's coming throught excellent.
That's why you rsync at a time you know the likelihood of it being used, like late night or early morning.
For the more typing inclined people, create a directory and do this:
rsync -av --delete --no-whole-file /folder-to-backup/ /backupfolder
