You wasted your money on all those “now on DVD” ads on my “That’s My Bush” DVD. You tried to make them unskippable, but you didn’t hire very smart people to do that job, so I don’t know what you wanted to try and sell me, just that it was a pointless effort on your part.
Rest assured, though, I won’t ever buy another Comedy Central DVD. I’ll just go back to renting them at Blockbuster.
At least compared to the original Tivo. It certainly would never have skipped a dozen shows rated at 3-thumbs, in favor of 10 episodes of a 2-thumbs show.
WTF?
Current Tivo devs, you suck ass compared to the guys who did the original Tivo.
You make me ashamed of all the times I tried to sell a friend or family member on how much better Tivo was than the DVR your cable provider offered.
I suspect you sold out, and now advertisers get more say over what you record for me, than the preferences I express.
I wonder how hard it is to convert a tivo box to mythTV box.
In one of those sleep viking moments, I just NOW got the porn/penis reference in the Southpark The Movie subtitle. I’ve always read it literally, as the contrast between film and TV. But seeing someone with a ‘childish’ moniker on WoW, in a guild named “Bigger, Longer, and Uncut”, it suddenly clicked that there might be an alternate, wink-wink, nudge nudge, meaning.
d’oh
The Beetle has finally cleared 60,000 miles. Driving back from the shop, I notice that the almost-ping sound is gone. It’ll be interesting to see, once I run a full tank of gas thru the post-maint engine, to see if I’m getting better mileage. It’s been a good car so far.
