Slashdot videos: Now with more Slashdot!

The TV show was not that bad, some episodes were pretty good actually.

Well, this is /. so it's probably the case for most of us...

Make that two :p

Lemme guess? eeePC? If so, it didn't run at 400. It just said it was running at that speed...

It's not just nVidia. Many modern devices suffer from cracked solder joints. I found a big projection TV 2-3 years ago on the curb, the convergence was all screwed up thanks to broken solder joints between the flyback and motherboard. All it took was removing the ROHS crap and resolder using *standard* solder. Still works to this day.

So by using this kind of solder and being able to say they're environment friendly all it does is put MORE electronics in landfills.

And that is why It's a bad idea to use software that relies on server side authentication. Case in point, I just reinstalled my security cam software, but it won't accept my *paid-for* license because it doesn't exist anymore. So my legally bought software is now useless.

ATSC PVRs already record the raw bitstream received from the broadcaster. what you're describing can be bought for around 70$

Windows Media Center serves the same purpose in my living room.

It is the same as cable if you think of Hulu & Netflix as the *new* networks. The difference is instead of paying your cable provider you're paying the networks directly.

I just hope security is really good. A 5W laser is enough to set fire to many materials, I can only imagine something (or someone) using that to set a desk on fire.

Blaming the same countries they're outsourcing to because it's less expensive? (and killing local economy since the staff is part of the outsourcing)

Besides, how many people just throw old pills in the *garbage* ? I'm pretty sure that's the main reason for drug resistance.

Please share the info, I'm pretty sure other people here live in (or near) Montreal.

And most of the steps are still required for other devices. iTunes is not more complicated than other solutions and integrates with Airport express devices, Apple TVs, allows sharing the library with other devices and controlling everything with your iDevice.

Some people prefer Android devices, I prefer the integration Apple offers. To each his own...

So that's where the company's name comes from...

Recording TV is not a typical scenario. Besides, at around 8GB/hour (HD), that's around 2000 hours a year, which is little more than what my BeyondTV machine does, and its 3TB WD green is still alive and kicking. You just have to disable the insanely aggressive head parking on those drives otherwise they might die...

Only 3 of my albums were bought on iTune, yet i've *never* had anything deleted in the 10 or so years I've used ipods and iphones.
