Dual HDTV outputs? I assumed that one was a DVI input and the other was an output so the PS3 could act as a passthrough. DVI ports are awfully scarce and HDCP-compliant switchboxes cost a mint. After all, lots of people's DVI ports will already be occupied by a cable or satellite box.
If this is true, Star Trek should sit on the bench for a good 15 years or so.

Oh Fuck it...Trip dies at the end and the episode is a holographic program on the holodeck of the Enterprise-D (yes...D as in how DUMB can you get!)which Riker and Troi are observing. The series itself is not a hologram program, but the likelihood of bringing it back after this bullshit is practically zero. You may now commense your saber rattling.

I live in Philadelphia, and work downtown. I am posting AC to avoid being a karma whore and to avoid getting killed by this Sal guy. Last week or so after work I walked down to his address because its not too far from center city. Let me tell you that this guy lives in a crumby crumby neighborhood. And even worse, in a very crumby house...This Sal guy needs to get taken down.
Soo.... you're saying he needs be punished for being POOR and living in a crappy neighborhood? I don't see what point you're making here. The conditions in which this guy lives shouldn't really have any bearing on the discussion.
If I had mod points I'd mod you troll, but surely you must know that in many municipalities cycling on the sidewalk is illegal and cyclists are obligated to ride in the street.
Not only that, but on streets without bike lanes, the law often dictates that a cyclist ride in the middle of the lane.
Assuming this is some sort of intentional community, do you really want something that will keep people holed up in their individual homes for more extended periods? Sounds like something that could break down the close-knittedness of the community.
Pick four or five community centers, or even just one, and put a few computers in there. Instant gathering place.
High-speed internet access in every home, you might as well be living in the suburbs. With goats.
I expect the ILWU won't give a good god-damn about how the ship is moored as long as they are the ones who run the equipment, handle the cargo coming off the ships, and they're the ones who handle the clerical work. It was actually clerical and back-office jobs that triggered the recent strike. And no, they weren't opposed to technology, they simply wanted to make sure the minds and hands behind the technology had union cards.
One reason the ILWU had become such a powerful, well-paid union is the fact that when cargo got container-ized rather than loose-packed, they embraced change and took payouts for the workers displaced by the new equipment.
SCO, after it's buyout from Caldera and then becoming SCO again, has generally behaved favorably towards Linux and the Linux community, even to the point of incorporating Linux functionality into Caldera/SCO Open Unix 8 through a Linux Kernel layer. If SCO's business model has previously included making money off Linux, it would be an act of either desperation or spite to suddenly demand royalties.
Also, isn't SCO still owned by Caldera, and SCO in name only?

Agreed - using Diablo II as a 3d frontend for Nethack or Rogue would be nice, right down to the 3d textured pound signs for walls and a view of your character as a giant ray-shaded "@" symbol.
Pehaps another 3d fps would be more up to that level of customization.

One of the big problems here is that Woldcom still operates various units as separate entities, virtually no integration has been done to get UUnet working with MFS working with MCI. It's a lot of fun troubleshooting a circuit and having techs tell you "the problem is with MCI, I work for MFS." !!!!! They all work for Worldcom!
There's been discussion of this on the NANOG list, and my DS3 in Chicago was taken down hard by this. Physical layer okay, but traffic died once it was two or three hops into UUnet/Worldcom's core. First outage was from 2am to 8am, second outage from approx. 10:45am (CST) to 2pm. The master tickets for this outage are 651744 (DS1 and below) and 651751 (DS3, OC3 and above). I just got off the phone with Worldcom's NOC and the story I got is that all the border routers that took a dive are back up save a few that they're bringing back up here in Chicago. Worldcom has provided confirmation that the Reason For Outage was a wildly unsuccessful BGP config propagation.
I've been diagnosed with kerataconus (sp?), severely in one eye and mildly in the right. It's a condition which distorts the cornea and having it disqualifies me for any laser treatment.
My opthamologist has given me two options, one being hard contacts, the other being corneal transplant. I'm deeply uncomfortable with contacts. I tried them during adolescence and couldn't deal with putting objects in my eyes and found the actual insertion to be diffucult. Also, I can't always count on having a lifestyle where the accessories of wearing contacts can always be at hand. Sometimes I go on extended trips living out of a small backpack.
So far my opthamologist has been stalling on the transplant surgery, but I'm starting to feel a sense of urgency as my right eye has gotten bad enough that I'm considering an eyepatch. As it is, input from the really bad eye is starting to interfere with how my brain inerprets signals from the sort of ok eye. it's to a point where I don't feel comfortable driving at night.
(Yeah, I know it's crass and I just blew karms but I'm fed up with seeing so much media and commercial appropriation of these events with faux-maudlin opportunism. Same goes for the USian government using it as an excuse for a totalitarian power grab.)
I'm hoping to write some scripts of my own to scan the various MAC addresses that show up on the network I manage for 802.11 access points.
So far I haven't been able to find a list of the prefixes used by various manufacturers for their access points. I asked about this on usenet but the only replies I got were the IEEE lists of ALL MAC address prefixes, with no distinction between NICs, APs, switches, etc.
I'm sure various vendors must have compiled such a thing for their auditing tools... but it doesn't seem like there's anything available through Google just yet.

Sci-Fi channel doesn't provide an HDTV signal anywhere, right? Isn't the DirecTV signal SD?
