Friends finale and NBC Tivo-b0rking --
TiVo Strikes Back

Friends finale and NBC Tivo-b0rking --
TiVo Strikes Back 05/07/2004 10:49 AM
Following up on yesterday's post about NBC's apparent attempts to b0rk potential TiVoers of the Friends finale, BoingBoing reader Douglas Clark says,

I am a loyal Tivo user and Tivo did send out a message alert to users about the Friends episode. It was more along the lines of "if you manually extend the time of a recording, you may miss the beginning of the friends final episode." I find that Tivo is pretty good about catching unusual start times and other wonky tricks the networks play. The previous comment about HUT and ratings was right on the money...

Link to previous BoingBoing post.

Tech maven Meg Hourihan adds, "Even weirder is that I got a message on my Tivo warning me that the finale of Friends would have abnormal times. The message warned that if I wasn't just using the automatic "start on time" and "end on time" settings (i.e. I manually set the start time as 8 PM) that I might miss some. What makes things weirder and worse is that Tivo still didn't record the whole show! I made sure my settings were what the message instructed, and happened to watch the show live. Tivo kicked in to record at 8:59 PM (which is what it listed the start time as) but stopped at 9:59! According to the time on my digital cable box, the program didn't end until 10:03 PM. So if I hadn't watched it live, I would have missed the last four minutes. Seems like a major screw-up on Tivo's part, especially after sending out that message!"

Intel and Tivo Team Up on Tivo-to-Go
(But How?)

Intel and Tivo Team Up on Tivo-to-Go
(But How?) 06/06/2005 12:09 AM

Reuters is running a story about Intel that is chocked full of goo info, including information that their 'Manitoba' mobile chipset has finally found a customer in mmO2 Pic (the Manitoba came out two years ago, to little fanfare, let alone actual adoption by phone manufacturers). But the big news is that Intel will be working with Tivo to provide Tivo-to-Go functionality in future laptop chipsets, like their popular Centrino.

What that is, though, is unclear. Is it just a branding initiative? Tivo-to-Go already works on laptops (that's half the point), so will it be some sort of native support that makes it easier to move the Tivo content around? We don't know—the article is very vague—but at least Tivo is getting some name dropping love from a mega-vendor (considering it was unlikely they were going to get much help from Microsoft, considering they sell a competing product to Windows XP Media Center). (Thanks, Pat!)

Don't have your taxes filed yet?

Don't have your taxes filed yet? 04/13/2005 05:42 AM

I'll be honest I like doing my taxes now. Some of you are going to say what are you talking about. Well it's easy I have been using TurboTax Online for a couple of years now and I love the service. Even though I have to do business forms and everything the process for me start to finish takes a couple of hours.

Luckily I have a wife that enters every receipt and anything related to my business in the book keeping system and I don't have to dig around for receipts and break out in a cold sweat organizing it all. I love filing and the wife likes keeping the paperwork straight. A match made in heaven. [CNet] [TurboTax]

Does anyone have an MP3 of the song "Tivo, My Tivo" from the off-Broadway [hit | miss] The Gayest Straight Man Alive? Because I'd really like to hear it. Also, could someone explain what "surprisingly straight" means? Is that, like, no dicks at all? Not even your own? (Thanks, Peter, for the "tip.")

Suit Filed to Unlock Mobile Phones

Suit Filed to Unlock Mobile Phones 06/09/2004 12:08 PM

One of the mobile phone industry's sleaziest tricks is to put a software lock on new phones that use the GSM system. The lock prevents customers from using the phone with another carrier's service. This mostly affects people who want to use their phones in other countries, or who want to put a stored-value SIM card into their current phone for specific uses, during the initial contract period. It also affects those who want to switch carriers after they've paid for their year of service (or have paid the extra fee for leaving early). A consumer group has file d suit to force the carriers to stop this practice, which is flagrantly anti-consumer. Good luck on this one. The companies will tell you that they lock the phone so you'll pay for the subsidies they give you when you sign up for their service. This is a total red herring -- a blatant deception -- by the industry. You sign up for a year's service (sometimes more) when you get a subsidized phone. As noted, if you quit early you have to pay an extra charge. Either way, you've covered the subsidy. I have a T-Mobile phone, and T-Mobile is one of the carriers being sued. When I bought it I was told I could get the unlock code three months after starting my service. That's coming up soon, and I intend to avail myself of this feature. AT&T, the carrier I left, told me it might never give me an unlock code. Three months is still unreasonable. I hope the suit succeeds, but what we really need is legislation prohibiting this conduct from the industry.
