Just makes me think of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxbQ_ea-AlI

I remember when TV's had VCR's built in.

I totally agree.. streaming is pointless to me except for old TV shows or something. Movies, I can't put up with the quality. Even with Netflix HD which is not really HD quality, and nevermind the sound sucks. Seems like many people who would pay extra for entertainment would be in the same boat. Larger-screen 1080p displays and good sound systems.

I just know that a streaming netflix movie on a 108" 1080p projection screen turned up hurts your eyes and ears with the compression artifacts and compressed sound.

I agree. The GP was not accurate.

I recall visiting an older friend in college in 1994. We both had TI DLC486-40 CPU's at the time, and he was compiling this new thing called "lie-nucks" and it scrolled some messages on the screen. I ran a BBS then under DOS 5, and I believe I had a "softmodem" card that theoretically could do 33.6Kbps but I never saw better than 28.8 and that was only a few times with my crappy phonelines.

Was just in China last week. Own a CDMA Droid 1, which was on international roaming (1x speed). I noticed I could access facebook, so I tried a few other things. Long story short, I was able to access the wikipedia article on Tienamen square while IN tienamen square. Well, briefly then I put the phone away and got out of sight.

Agreed. I just buried it.

Yeah I agree running the red light is bad. But I think it is worse that the red light camera companies (i.e. RedFlex) require that the intersection yellow light duration be lowered to the minimum allowable by law when they are installed. How does that promote public safety? Not to mention the places where they violate the law and lower it even further just to get more money.

And, the cameras don't even help what I see as the main issue in the intersections, which is people failing to yield on left turns. That has nothing to do with the red light cameras.

Uhhh what? I have a Droid with verizon and there's no trace of V-anything. Unless you go to the market and install the basic verizon stuff. I think you are livin' in the past.

This seems different than the typical Martha Stewart type deal..

Just read some of this stuff.. They had phone taps on these guys for a YEAR... They were blatantly sharing information, and it even infers at one point that the IBM Exec got there through influence from this group of people doing the insider trading..

I always found the posts that begin with "I wish I had mod points to mod you up" stupid, but now I find myself posting one.

Good post.

Well, I'm glad I saw this.. I thought because one of my channels moved from UHF to VHF I couldn't pick it up. But I followed the guide in the link and found the physical channel was wrong. Checked antenna web, updated the channel and it's working again. Thanks to the submitter for posting this!

I agree with the OP. The purpose of this encryption capability is more for data at rest, and for secure erase of data. I'd say this is a good feature just for the fact that wherever the drive ends up after I've used it, the bits on the platters are not in plaintext.
