By Bill Husted, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution  Sep. 3--There are thousands of ways to kill a computer. I've tried most  of them.   They've gone up in flames in front of my eyes and died quiet and  undramatic deaths at my hand.

Internet TV is a mirage, seeming so close yet turning out to be far away or downright unreal when you try to watch it. At least that's my take on the many past plans for zapping motion pictures over the Internet.

Science & environment: We are constantly told to switch the TV off standby, recycle and boil less water - but does this distract us from the bigger picture?

Simple tool for mass-renaming of files, download of episode lists from TV.com, TVRage or AniDB, analyzing a folder (number of files and total size for each file type), creating and checking of SFV files all in a single executable jar.   What's new in FileBot 1.6: * Episode list searches work much better now (AniDB works again) * Much better handling of lots of files when creating/check sfv files * DnD improvements * Lots of bugfixes

If my car died tomorrow, I'd have a lot less angst picking its successor than I would if my TV conked out. -Rob Pegoraro

I have good news, bad news, and worse news.  The good news is that I managed to get MythTV working well enough that it now plays standard definition channels better than the cable box alone, even though it's getting its signal from the cable output of the cable box.  I get this benefit because MythTV allows me to tweak various parameters that you can't change on the cable box.   The bad news is that high definition channels still look worse through MythTV than they do if I watch then directly from the cable box.  I don't expect to solve this problem. The cable box may be able to handle HDTV itself, but it outputs a digital signal in 480p, which is basically standard definition. The fact that I have two HDTV-capable tuner cards does me little good.  Here's the worse news. I had to learn way too much to get this far.
