Ditching cable TV
After our cable bill increased due to losing all discounts, Deb and I considered just how much we watch “live” TV these days. The answer was “not much”. We’ve decided to ditch cable TV. This morning I made the call and terminated all TV services from Comcast. A few hours later all of the set […]

XBox 360 – so much love, so much hate
It happened *again*. Our XBox 360 died with the ring of 3 red lights. This is the second time in six months this has happened. Unfortunately, this time it was out of warranty, so I’m out $139 to get it repaired. We use the XBox 360 pretty much every day. Not so much as […]

Great short video – Shift Happens
I picked this up off of Joe Healy’s business blog. What a great video! Everyone should watch it. For those of us who have been around for a while, it just drives home that what we’ve seen so far is nothing compared to what’s coming! My first home computer had 4k of memory […]

Computers in movies
Through Digg.com I found a link to Annoyances.org The use of Computers in Movies list. This thing is dead on! A couple of my favorite items (not in the list): In the movie Hackers (so bad I watch it every now and then just to laugh at it), when the main guy asks […]

Solid|Drive desktop – a neat idea!
I saw the Solid|Drive Desktop device on a Microsoft Channel 9 video on the "house of the future" in London. The Solid|Drive device is just a hockey puck looking thing that you place on your desk (or in the video, your kitchen counter) and the surface that it’s resting on becomes a speaker. It’s pretty […]

Is Wired now a lifestyle magazine?
The latest issue came bundled with a "Fashion Rocks" magazine supplement. This is on top of the frequent GQ type inserts that come in the plastic wrapper. Hey, guys running these promotions – forget it – while geeks might be aspirational, I’m pretty sure most of us aren’t going to be reading Fashion […]

The E-Ring TV show – some potential, lots of irritants
A friend of mine recently recommended E-Ring as a show worthy of watching. I told him that I didn’t want to get addicted to any more shows, as our MCE system records more than we can watch anyway (we don’t watch that much TV). Well, in any case, a few day ago Deb and […]

The moon landings were faked!
I first saw this site years ago and lost it. I’m putting it in here so I don’t lose it again. Examine each picture in each panel very carefully for all the gory details…
