Ok, first post on HTF in AGES, and its to comment that Profilers site seems to be down. I know that they are doing some pretty radical changes to the back end again, to be implemented in 2.3.2. Did anyone catch any posts about a planned outage? If not, I am now taking bets on how long it is...
I am posting this on the off chance that the intervocative crew still visits HTF. I had to reimage my system, and silly me, I forgot to back up my Profiler Key. To top it all off, I seem to have forgotten my password to log into the Profiler website (which has changed radically). I sent...
Ok, it looks like I will be down in Fairfax, Virginia for up to 4 months (out every other weekend) and was wondering what there is to do. Already planned on seeing the US Capital buildings, the Whitehouse, Arlington, Smithsonian Air & Space...
Ok, this is a fantasy casting call for a remake of Star Wars (the entire series, original trilogy and prequel). Here is the catch - all roles must be filled by Muppets. Luke Skywalker - Kermit the Frog Princess Leia Organna - Miss Piggy Darth Vader - Gonzo, but only becasue he has been...
Don't know how many of you are watching this, but for those Canadians who missed Rick's Rant on This Hour has 22 Minutes, you won't be disappointed. Loved this weeks "interview" with Shiela Copps. Got her good with the quotes out of her old biography, and had her absolutely squirming with his...
Cinescape has put up an article questioning Enterprise's return for a 5th season. Enterprise to be decommisioned? Having only briefly scimmed the article, it would appear the PTB are questioning the lustre of their crown jewels. It is simple really, get rid of B&B and bring fresh blood in...
OK, I admit to not following the Outlaw bit that much over the last while, but I had been mulling over getting the 1050 Receiver. So I was a little surprised to hit the website today to find it discontinued. Have they replaced it with anything? I could not find any hits of upcoming or...
Ok, I managed to grab two old DEC racks from the office. One is being/will be used for my NOC. It will be in separate location, so no worries about cabling, etc. getting mixed up. The other will have a niche built for it in the HT, allowing me roll it our for replacements/etc. Questions I...
Is this a lunch box I see before me, the handle toward my hand? Come let me clutch thee... To paraphrase the great bard, I have been presented with what I feared was a vision tempting me to do evil, but no. It really is the long missing My So-Called Life lunch box, including the bonus disc...
According to Darl McBride... SCO is how it is spelled For those not in the loop, Darl is the CEO of SCO, a company that seems determined to go down in the annuls of computer history as having launched the stupidest lawsuits and threats of lawsuits ever. SCO is suing IBM for IP infringement...
The site was/is called movie links, or something similar to this. Often has multiple types of trailers, and in different formats. Can't for the live of me remember the name of the site, can can't find it in google... Accidentally killed the bookmark, and I feel foolish.
Being a bit of a historical buff (mostly internested in Naval and Maritime History) I was pleased to see this on CBC. I quite enjoyed it, even if "Connie" kept reminding me of "Dawn" from BtVS. Anyone else watch it, and anyone going to buy the DVDs? For those not from Canada, or Boston, in...
Hey, just caught episode 2 (or 3) of this seasons TOH. What the heck happened to Steve Thomas? There is a new host, who seems to be greener then me even, and (according to the TOH website) was picked up after he appeared on a segment of ATOH last season. The website has nearly NO...
Don't know if this really belongs in the PC hardware section or not, but just got shown this by my wife, who has been on a case mod junket of late... This mod is one of the coolest I think I have ever seen... even better then the Millenium Falcon! Matrix: Rebirth
Man, some people have WAY to much time. Millenium Falcon HMM, I would have built a wireless keyboard/mouse receiver into the case, that way I could eliminate those wires. Then tried to incorporate the USB ports into the landing gear... Then again, a Frigate, Corellian Cruiser, or Home...
I have lusted for this since I first saw it. Like Pavlov's dog, it makes me drool as much as a HT Project. So, it will be all mine, my Precious. In less then two hours I pick up My 2003 GT Cruiser! I love this car, and have been wanting to by a Cruiser sine they first debuted. I almost...
I while back I encountered a nice looking alternative to DVD Profiler. The application was written by an Australian, if I recall correctly. Mainly used as a personal, local DB, it only had details for Region 4 dics online. Due to difficulties with DVD Profiler (which over all I still LOVE) I...
Is it possible to have a HTPC set up that can play DVD audio discs? I think that the new Audigy2 cards will allow you to do this, but does nayone know of software out there now? I am currently running an SB Audigy card, and really don't need to go out and get yet an other multi speaker card.
Makes you wonder, did they try rebooting? ;) 203 flights cancelled "Hi, thank you for calling M$ ATC support, how can I help you? ... Ok, so all your planes are missing? Have you tried rebooting your Air Triffic Control systems? No, well sir, I can't help you until you do that...OK, now...
I will be traveling to Houston in Mid March. Couple of things I need to know. Other then Johnson Space center, what other tourist things can I take in while down there? Good restaurants, and hotels? What channels show Buffy and Angel, and when? LOL
Remember to stop by your local version of the Prancing Pony and raise a pint to "the Professor". Today would have marked J.R.R. Tolkien's Eleventy-First birthday (111), or "a very curious number and a very respectable age for a Hobbit." Thank you! I can't begin to tell you how much I...
Ok, I have been using image for updates and searches on upcoming titles for some time (to enter into DVD Profiler, etc). However, for about the last month, I have not been getting much back (if any) in the line of search results. I know titles have been announced, but they are not appearing in...
OK, here it is, I skimmed the DVDProfiler site, could not find what I am looking for. I used to print out a reports by exporting to CSV, the doing the sort I wanted in Excel. With the new version of DVD Profiler, titles are (properly) titled with THE in the front. IE, The Cat's Meow, is now...
