This is why I like my new linux computer. I'm uploading a video file, downloading a video file (both on my local lan), encoding an mpeg2 file to divx, watching a wmv movie streaming off the internet, and posting here with everything running smoothly.
Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yes, but can you manage your recipes and chart your biorhythms?

Well, sure, it's no BeOS but it's better than my old setup.

One of the theatres I design at is still using the BeOS for their audio playback system.

I have one cable channel that's all colored fuzz. Sadly, it's UPN, so I'd like to have it working before the new Veronica Mars. After waiting a very long time being told that my call was important, I got a person who kept insisting that I had to make sure the *television* channel was tuned to the channel. Both my cable box and television manuals say that you don't have to do any television channel programming, just put it on 3. After I hung up, I tried programming the television anyway. to no affect. Have any of you ever heard of that?

Have any of you ever heard of that?
No. If you normally use a cable box, then you don't mess with the TV channel.
"We don't want to have to put in a service ticket, do we?"
Ummm.... yeah "we" do!

All is well that ends in pizza.
It sounds like one of the cards in the box downstream is going bad. The tech will be able to clear that up with a mad dash up the pole, or maybe pulling a card in a box somewhere.
Unless it's my house, then it'll take severl months and seventeen phone calls before someone believes I have cable issues.
This is why I don't have cable any more.

I'm trying to reload Azureus, and keep getting told I need to have port 50678 UDB open. I tried going to my Security and adding the port, but it asks me for a name, and I don't have that.
I just want some TV, man!
Help?

Is it too much to ask to find clean, dare I say it, hip, interesting clip art to update my ezine? I've slogged through what seems like hundreds of sites looking for simple designs (not photos) and now I'm overwhelmed.
Anybody have any favorite resources?
I found some images I liked at my email campaign (Constant Contact) site, but they are the wrong color. Curses.
