Plex
Plex is even better when you read the instructions. Movie and TV settings rock when you do content settings correctly.

I have given up on the Windows Server built in NTP client/server.
I have moved to Meinberg’s NTP build for windows.

Everyday there is something new to remind me why I hate politicians. Especially ones that seem to be puppets for big corporations – which is most of them in my opinion, no matter which side of the isle. 20 members of the US House of reps have asked the FCC to investigate Google Voice – regarding their blocking of calls to rural carriers. Google already explained this: the carriers charge exorbitant termination fees and then team up with conference call and other “free” services to bilk long distance carriers. Google says that they should not be forced to pay the fees but instead the out of date teleco charging model should be changed. Is there really nothing else for these asshats in Washington to do but criticize and try to shutdown a service that they probably do not even understand. I think they should spend more time figuring out how to lower the National Debt.
If you are not technical enough or have not spent enough time researching to know that Google Voice is not a VoIP application like Skype then you should probably not talk about it.
Google Voice uses the PSTN for the “last mile”, it calls you and then calls the person you were calling. No translation to IP until it moves from the PSTN to Google’s IP network, which is used to bypass LD charges for Google. Minutes are still being burned on your cell phone plan. Here is why the carriers are afraid of GV:
1) GV assigns you a number you get to keep forever – which you can then have redirected to any of your phones. This allows you to have no forced “loyalty” to the carriers and instead bounce between services when ever you like. You can also change your GV number for $10 and keep the old one for 3 months during the transition. Most carriers charge around $35.
2) It offers services the carriers could have implemented but have not or if any do probably not free.
a) VM to email translation
b) Different call delivery behavior based on caller, including call blocking.
c) Web based interface for calls, VM, contacts, ….
3) Google has cheap International rates and free domestic LD service. Although I am not sure how much profit the carriers get from that now, given that most of them offer very cheap all-you-can-eat LD packages.
4) Free text messaging, although most people will have SMS forwarded to their current cell number, so they will still need a text package. Text packages are a very large profit margin product (almost 100%) for the wireless carriers.
and all of this and more for free.
Sirrius XM please fire Martha Quinn, Nina Blackwood, and the rest of the MTV rejects that came from Sirrius.
You have 3 months to make the 80s channel more music like it was with XM pre-merger. If these highly annoying djs are not gone by then I’m cancelling my subscription.
What do you do if you are the President and simultaneously want to subvert the democratic process and be able to blame somebody else when something goes wrong?
Start appointing Czars that have virtually no accountability to anyone but the President.

The GOP needs to let this one go. The new potential Justice could be a whole lot worse.
Quote from South Korean negotiator speaking of recent threats from North Korea: “If they follow through on their threats it will be a good opportunity to teach them a lesson.”
I find it funny that people that were total dicks to me in HS want to be my friend in FaceBook.
If you were an asshole to me in the past why would I want to be part of your circle of “friends”.
Join the revolution – it is time for a FaceBook slaughter. Unfriend 10% of your “friends” today!
or as I call it culling the herd
