Likewise. No snow with the digital signal, just the sounds drops out first then the video turns into choppy blocks. Analog with a tiny bit of snow was fine, no sound and blocky picture sucks.
This isn't on all channels, but I used to get about 20 different channels on my rabbit ears and now I get about 25, but most of them are repeats (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4...all show the same thing 90% of the time, or the weather...meh)
I think the switch to digital is healthy. As I understand it it requires a lot more bandwidth (spectrum?) to send analog vs. digital, therefore that same bandwidth can be used for other things. I just wish it wasn't losing one (quality) for the other (quantity.)
Summary of the summary:
1. Chip cooled down to very cold temperatures.
2. Chip ran faster than it ever has before.
3. Intel creates a micro-fridge. 4. The world turns.
It's all relevant somehow, and news is news... *shrug*
I live in the middle of the woods and I'm a registered NRA member. I do believe that we got to a point where I could no longer trust the government with my security, and would much rather be able to survive than feel "safe." I can most certainly protect my assets.
Being a nerd implies a lack of social grace. Being a nerd also implies a thirst for knowledge. It's hard to "learn" behavior if you've already been socially (and mentally) stamped into a box. I personally think this is a cool idea for a class. Just think how YOU would respond if they brought in Jeri Ryan as a guest speaker!
I have an honest question: How many people here truly think that if there were an anomaly that they would be able to survive without A) Electricity B) A grocery store C) Modern medicine -and most importantly- D) Fresh (clean) water
I know for a fact that I'd safely have A, B and D. I live in the woods anyway, huge garden, plenty of animals to slaughter for tasty bbq and we have a very high water-table with multiple ponds around. Not the cleanest but I'd figure out a way to survive. I'm just wondering about statistics here.
I'd assume this could apply to intra (inter?*) stellar images too. That'd be sweet to see Titan or Enceladus!
*After pondering that thought, I bet this could be applied to any sort of electromagnetic spectrum (visual or otherwise.) Point some camera's at the center of the galaxy. That'd be sweet too.
He isn't a libertarian. The government is supposed to protect us, a fundamental right we get for paying taxes. Libertarians, while agreeing the government should be smaller, still feel that there are SOME necessities to government, including this. This guy is just trying for flamebait.
1. Warner made a deal with YouTube to allow YT to show Warners videos.
2. Warner decides it doesn't like the deal anymore so they pull their videos, against the terms of the deal.

It's not hard to set up a page that looks exactly like the front page of anything. cfhttp does it for you (if you are for CF.) At the very least, a site could be hijacked, a cfhttp to the IP of the server could easily be set up, and the forms could be hijacked to steal your password. Slashdot isn't probably the most likely target, but I'm sure there are plenty of people here who's/. password is their email (or [insert any service here] password.)
Brand spankin' new, never before seen in nature! JESUSONIUM! Throw some in your water, it instantly becomes wine! Bury it for three days and it instantly becomes a chocolate bunny! You can eat and drink it, heal yourself and best of all, if you accept all of this, you will be rewarded with eternal bliss.
For example: The Halo 3 "Beta" was really internally called Delta. The true beta was taking place in the months and years prior. Gmail has been in "beta" since before it was invite only. Technically, when they started allowing people to sign up if they provided a cell number (vs. knowing someone with invites) was when they should have started calling it Delta.

Next time GP, how about YOU try? (That took me a whole....3 seconds to find. Thank you TP!)
wtf? is that domain really owned by microsoft? suddenly I feel scared.....
Which can be reformed by education, which is a tool of the masses, which the Chinese authorities most certainly don't want to propagate.

Politics would change, sure. Anarchy? Maybe, but at some point you take on the people you can support (and require for defense, labor, etc...)
All I'm really saying is that while I have the means, even I don't really have a plan. Who does?

I don't see how this is shocking to anyone.

Text messages are not cheap either!
So Rob is Jesus 2.0?
Which only goes to further my theory that Canada is really Kashyyk.
Right but because it can be both, it can't just be one or the other hence the contradiction OR incompleteness.
Hey, at least 3 of the voices in my head thought it was funny! (Yeah we do!)

Otherwise, I suppose, you can rot in hell.
Well their #1, the White House worked, so I call shennanigans! GRAB YOUR BROOMS!!!
What does a tasty dog treat have anything to do with this?
