[quote name='wubb']Yeah yeah, Tivo can scramble an egg while it's still inside it's shell too, I'm sure. :bomb:

We were supposed to get an update to fix the problem with the available recording space dropping like a rock sometime in late October but it didn't happen. I noticed a very subtle difference in how search results are displayed but it could have just been something I missed before so I don't know if any update went out at all. Didn't note the revision of the IMG.

I'm fairly certain they instructed their phone CS to tell people about that update becuase I heard about it from two different people. Talk about making a fairly shitty job even shittier for your guys.[/quote]:lol:

Remember, I'm paying a fee for each Tivo, and it's less than your monthly fee for your DVR. Comes out in the wash. :razz:

I think you may need to bug them weekly and find out when this update is going to be dropped, as that's something that's more than a little important.

That reminds me of something. I just had the best candy ever last night ... namely Mint M&Ms. They're phenomenal. They taste like little peppermint patties with shells.

Ooooh, gotta try those.

[quote name='TFN']I like those Andes mints they give you at Olive Garden.

Mmmm.[/QUOTE]

My friend made a good observation the other day. He said you could eat a 1,000 of those things without getting full.

I agree.
 
[quote name='senorwoohoo']Peanut M&Ms own all.[/QUOTE]

WTF, they aren't even the best M&M. Almond M&Ms > Dark Chocolate M&Ms > Peanut M&Ms = Plain M&Ms > Crispy M&Ms >>> Peanut butter M&Ms
 
I'm with the sad penguinigga on this one, Almond MnMs rule all.

A thousand is pushing it. I usually just squish like four of 'em together and eat 'em. I dont really eat candy either.

Yeah I should call them up again.

Found an article on this release (they are calling it a maintenance release) and it said they are improving the calculation used to determine the free space. Which falls in line with what the first CS rep I talked to said (guy was not very good). I'm not terribly psyched about how mucht that is really going to help. Sounds like they might also be rolling back in the option to record a show only at a specific time. (Talk about DVR features 101, these guys are nimrods...)
 
[quote name='TFN']You press right I believe for UAV Recon/Airstrike, it should show you on your screen when you get 3/5 kills. ;) The UAV just basically lights up your map with the locations of your enemies. I think at 10 kills or something you get a helicopter that just mows niggas down that are outside running around. I think though, I'm not sure.

Left is for secondary weapons on your initial weapon. Like if you pick the M16 w/ grenade attachment, you press left to switch between regular ammo and 'nades. The 'nade launcher on those guns is useless. ^__^ Rockets are where its at if you wanna blow niggas up.[/QUOTE]

7 for helo
 
The fuck? I read the title of the OTT and immediately thought 10v3 was a reference to starcraft. fucking internet speak. I'm going to have to install some sort of program to translate all this shit soon.
 
Someone offered me a cheap HD Tivo w/HDMI for $75.
Then I saw the monthly plan for 1 year. $16.95?
I seriously thought it was much cheaper.
 
Yeah I didn't think Tivo service was all that cheap.

It's good Tivo is out there though or cable providers (1) probably wouldn't be offerering a DVR option at all and/or (2) if they did it would be way more expensive and even crappier.
 
There's no way I can go back to gaming on less than 50" for next gen games.

I played Animal Crossing a few days ago on a 13" CRT just fine.
Looked great.
 
[quote name='senorwoohoo']I haven't had the almond ones. :([/QUOTE]

Almond ones are definitely harder to find than peanut or regular and you get less for the money. Damn almond hoarders.

It's steps in the right direction, though I just wish they had a bar gauge or something to show you total space used and total space remaining, in hours. I've suggested it to them numerous times when they've been soliciting for things to add to the service updates.

You don't need to use it with the subscription, if you just want to use it like a VCR.

The older subscribers, like me, have $12.95 for the first device, and $6.95 for each device after that, without making any yearly commitment. You can get the box from Tivo itself and roll the fee for the hardware into the monthly commitment. $75 for a HD Tivo is a great price on one right now, assuming it works.

I'd rather go roll my own DVR solution or MCE solution than resort to a cable company solution. I'd rather not have to have the company that provides me service own the box as well. Never know what they could do to you.

Looked great.[/quote]I think my next TV for my game consoles will end up being a 52" or 56" LCD. That's about the right viewing distance for my basement, and around the point where 1080p makes sense.

The new mint ones are better than all of those. :booty:
 
[quote name='wubb']Almond ones are definitely harder to find than peanut or regular and you get less for the money. Damn almond hoarders.[/QUOTE]

F'real.
 
[quote name='dallow']Oh really?!

Then I'm jumping on that Tivo he's offering.
IT BETTER WORK![/quote]It retails for $299. Makes me wonder why he's dropping the price so cheaply.

Plus, it has two CableCARD slots for doing two HD cable or digital cable recordings at the same time.

When Tivo gets multi-room viewing and the external storage options worked out, I'm starting to switch out my S2 Tivos for Tivo HD's and stick eSATA drives on each new one.

The Verizon box does exactly that. Has a bar gauge showing total hours used and the hours remaining. (Gives you both SD hour remaining and HD hours remaining) In the prior release they did it with a straight total %. (Which I prefered frankly.)

Only problem is the thing holds a small amount for having a 160GB HDD.

[quote name='Maklershed']The new mint ones are better than all of those. :booty:[/QUOTE]

I might give them a try, but there's no way they are better than almond and you've already shown that your taste is suspect.
 
I'm not sure why either.
He's selling a number of items for cheap in a hurry. And I don't think he knows the value of any of them.
He tried to sell me a receiver worth $80 for $300 before I explained that no one will buy it at that price.

I don't think he cares much what he gets.
 
The Verizon DVR service is $13 per month so the same as you pay for your first Tivo shrike. I pay a little more because I got a DVR capable of playing back on any set top box in the house.

I actually don't mind Verizon owning the box because that means no up front cost for the thing.
 
I kinda like people like that.

I dont like that where they got it from is probably illegal... but I like that theres people who just wanna make a quick buck and niggas like us benefit from that.
 
They make a dulche de leche M&M. I need to try those.

Oh wait according to one of the handful of google hits they were only available in a few markets with large hispanic pop. and taken off the market 5 or 6 years ago. Wikipedia has failed me.

The Tivo HD has a 160GB drive in it, though has an eSATA port for external drive expansion. There's a hack to make it work for the Tivo Series 3, which I think works on the HD as well, though it's unsupported.

[quote name='CaseyRyback']So what exactly do you pay for with the service?[/quote]For the Tivo service, or for the Verizon DVR service?

[quote name='dallow']Hmm, I don't think it's a real Tivo now that I look it up.

What is this Shrike? Worth it?

http://www.solidsignal.com/prod_display.asp?PROD=HD-DVR250[/quote]If that's what it is, it's a DirecTivo HD, which is a HD-capable Tivo that only works with DirecTV. It's not as good as the DirecTV HD DVR they've made on their own, as it doesn't support HD content as much at the DirecTV one. Plus, it only works with DirecTV. DirecTV says they're going to update it to work better with their service, though I'll believe it when I see it.
 
[quote name='dallow']So basically I can't use it unless I have DirecTV.[/quote]Correct.

[quote name='corrosivefrost']fucking TiVo talk.[/quote]Someone has to balance out the music talk. :D
 
[quote name='senorwoohoo']Been talkin' 'bout candy, you old slut.[/quote]For now, of course you are.

I'm working off the past conversations. I haven't even made it up to balance out the candy talk, if I wanted to do that.

You young coffeewhore. ;)

Very true!

I actually prefer fruity candy to chocolate, but my grandma didn't have anything else.
 
[quote name='dallow']My first match I got my 3 man kill streak, killed a man while laying dying, and I think call in an air strike to kill dem nuccas.

I'm bout it bout it.[/QUOTE]They must have pussified the retail version. You had to kill 5 in a row to get an airstrike in the beta and you could only access Last Stand by getting to like level 5.

Naw it is all the same. You getting that duty?

I got some homework to knock out of the way before I start playing tonight. I have a presentation for class I am working on (basically typing up a summary and some questions for two articles).
 
[quote name='TFN']The green I went searching for yesterday turned out to be orange. :hot:[/QUOTE]

Must been some crazy funky funk...
 
[quote name='senorwoohoo']Very true!

I actually prefer fruity candy to chocolate, but my grandma didn't have anything else.[/quote]So, have you moved back to your grandma's yet? I know you talked about it a week or so back, though I didn't see anything like an ETA for when that would happen.
 
Yeah, I ordered CoD4 online yesterday but I have no clue when my 360 is getting back from Mexico McAllen. I'm actually getting a little scurred cause it's already been a good week and I don't have an update. I was hoping to get it back sometime this week but next week is more probable. The good thing is I get next day delivery with UPS to/from McAllen because of the proximity.
 
I really don't remember guys.
It must have been 5 streak then.

Thanks for the tips though, I'll be a little more prepared.
