Where is "here".

HA....after reading this story, i feel myself evolving right now in preparation.

ROFL!!!!

I've been calling it Radio Hut for the longest time!

Its not like this rebranding will make the products any better or cheaper. But what do i know.

Im in agreement. Though i muddle thru it because its home...

Find someone to come in and tell you,

"Ah, we can fix this. We'll just replace it with an MS AD server. Oh wait, you want to keep this? Why ever for?"

Those are a dime a dozen. Well ok, considerably more than a dime. But they make themselves sound soooo wonderful...

...not a damned thing.

Seriously, while Youtube has some worthwile content (tutorials, etc) its not of sufficient quality that I'd actually plunk down money to watch. Hell if i see one more chick shaking her ass to some song...im going to retch (after the video is over of course).

Just my 2cents.

Oh, i say prophetic because i've spent the last 8 years or so as an email administrator. Though unfortunately its Microsoft Exchange....

In a move that, in hindsight, was eriely prohpetic i set up a uucp mail server. I was teaching myself C when a coworker gave me a copy of this disk based unix tutorial. I thought it was neat and then began hunting around for a full version of the os. Mind you, this was 1992 or so. I even remember sending 3 boxes of 3.5" floppies to someone somewhere who copied a version of slackware for me and sent them back. Loved the OS ever since.

your point is taken but i think NASA would've been better served by going with the popular vote.

...democracy is thrown out when it suits. Its not like Colbert was an offensive name. I'd be insulted were i Colbert.

Ok, lets see, this server with i already pay 100+ dollars for, to watch maybe a dozen out of a couple hundred channels, wants to charge me even more for having an internet life? Isn't it bad enough that i have to pay for channels i'll never use like the spanish speaking channels, or that i have to buy blocks of the same network that shows the same thing on each channel? And lets see, i spend most of the day either asleep or at work. Something isn't adding up. Damned thieves...

Hmmm...what say you and I find this guy and work him over in an alley. I'll beat him with my slide rule. You shove your pocket protector in his mouth to keep him quiet.

No really, im a father of 3 and working in the tech sector about as long. Amazing what some people are paid to come up with isnt it.

I have to agree with you on this. With the cancellation of so much that was truly good, we are left with the occasional gem in a trough of crap. All the snake movies, and gator movie and spider movies, and knock offs of other movies... I remember when i used to enjoy watching SF. Now its my starting point to surf up FX or USA, or down to History or some such.

SciFi has historically been treated as the province of fringe viewers. Networks would rather do something popular like, GAG, another "Law and Order"/"CSI" spin off or clone such as "Lie To Me".

Not saying these shows are bad, just that SF has often been given short shrift.
