Sweet.. Thanks. Are they still doing HR34s or have they been sold through to the 44's?

Got an email offering me a free Genie if I re-up my contract.. Basically what I would want to do is put that in place of one of my regular HD receivers and keep the two HR-24's to give me 9 recording tuners (10 total).. In this case would they give me the SWM16 that I would now need in this...

Golden's are awesome. That's the only breed I've ever owned and I will continue to pay a breeder. Golden's (and many other breeds) have so many genetic health problems that you can't afford to buy from anything but a reputable breeder. They are a very common puppy mill breed, and there are very...

Ugh. LFODH was the beginning of the DHINO (Die Hard: In Name Only) series.. At this point its just getting stupid. I hope that writer dies of ass cancer.

Save yourself $15 a month and get Slacker on your phone. Better music stations than XM and only $4 a month. Unless you are looking for the talk/sports... There is no self contained sat radio for the car. They all require antenna and power, and thanks to the FCC the ones that have built in FM...

You are all missing the point of the commercial.. They are highlighting that with the Genie and an RVU TV, you dont need a box or the associated wires at all.

Umm, no. They don't need to waste any more bandwidth on channels like that. Next you'll be saying they should have the infomercial channels in HD. Its just stupid.

Because nobody gives a flying crap about HSN and QVC in HD.

Mythbusters did that a few years back too. Basically beat a top of the line biometric lock with a wet photocopy of a fingerprint.

I've never had luck with pre-seasoned cast iron. I have that same grill pan and two Lodge skillets, and I wound up seasoning them anyway. I use the burner from the turkey fryer because it can get the iron screaming hot and I don't have to worry about the lard smoke in the house.. Same with my...

...All of this is EXACTLY what I said before. But unfortunately a certain person is trying to blame his lack of English comprehension on me. Redmere does not convert the transmitted format, nor does it add error correction. Basically it boosts the signal at the source end, then applies...

I don't think its their own LTE, I believe they are leasing tower space from AT&T.

You need to stop trolling me because you're going to look really stupid. First of all T-Mobile is HSDPA, not plus. It is "enhanced 3g" or "3.5g". They have been claiming to have 4g for at least two years. Second, you are NOT paying less "after the subsidy ends". There is no subsidy, you are...

Lol watch any of their commercials for the 4g claim.. And the claim of "undercutting" is in the article in the OP - as well as claimed by John Kotches above "Other companies won't lower your monthly bill after the phone subsidy ends. T-Mobile will"

First of all they aren't honest about it. They make no mention anywhere except the fine print. And that's besides the fact that they've been lying about having 4g for years. HSPDA is NOT 4g Second, you are buying the phone outright anyway. When the rent to own is up, the plan price drops into...

Uhh. OK.. First of all, HDMI has NO error correction, as has already been established. That is WHY we get spark lies and artifacts. So there was no point in bringing it up. Second, with regard to HDMI (the topic of THIS thread) the signal IS either PERFECT or it is NOT. If you have no...

Its a total scam. Aside from whatever crappy overpriced tier you choose, they tack on $20-40 a month as basically a "rent to own" contract on the phone. If you cancel before 22 months you either have to return the phone (with no refund) or pay the balance. They want you to think its no contract...

No you also missed the point of the statement. We are comparing it to analog - wherein you can (usually) visually see a difference in the picture by using a better quality cable. For example a 50ft component run to a projector using RG6 cables will usually look better than the same run with...

Yeah that's exactly what I was getting at.. Thanks! :) sparklies are lost/corrupted bits in the stream. They can be random like snow, or they can affect the same pixels consistently. Its similar to the blockiness/pixelization you see in a digital cable or sat stream when there is a glitch, but...

I've used them on a few installs, including my own.. They work as advertised, but I wouldn't bother with them for any application under 15'. Basically its almost like a repeater so you don't get sparklies in the picture or handshake errors with a long run to a projector or remote room while...

Until you need/want a new phone. They keep you on it till you reup. Unless you pay full boat for a phone of course..

Meh, my contract isn't up until November, by then the S4 should've seen at least one price drop with the S5 on the horizon.. I wish SprintSung would just drop the crappy bloated Touchwiz and partner with one of the far superior AOSP ROMs. I'm running a super stable CM10.1 on my S2 and I loathe...

No, for the third time, it'll record from the beginning of the show or the beginning of the buffer, whichever is later. All DVRs work like that, because people don't keep pieces of shows. When they hit record in the middle its usually because they want to keep the whole thing. I seriously don't...

Re: New HD coming soon on DirecTV Its a Viacom channel.. The company that ruined Mtv with shows - so they had to add Mtv2 just for music - and now thats overrun with shows.. Would you expect anything less from them?

Edit.. Stupid thing didn't quote.. This is in response to daretobe The tuner has to have been on that channel since the beginning in order to catch the whole thing. If you turned it on at 7:05 and then at 7:25 decided to hit record, it will save everything beginning at 7:05. It doesn't matter...
