Never one to shy away from voiding a warranty, I decided to take the plunge and pull apart my malfunctioning 9200 PVR to see if I could figure out if the hard drive had any sort of AAM (Advanced Acoustic Management) enabled.

I have been a PVR fan for quite some time. My first exposure was a TiVO series 1 on DirecTV, and then when Bell ExpressVu came out with their 5100, I immediately grabbed one. The difference between the 5100 and a TiVO series 1 is quite stunning - no name based recording or season's passes. In spite of the shortcomings, I happily used the 5100 for a couple of years, until the hard drive started getting more and more flakey.

I think I'm listening to history happening. I think that podcasting is the most incredible thing to happen to online content in quite some time. I'm a big fan of tech-related podcasts - mostly from the ex-TechTV crowd. However, this week I was shocked to hear the latest from Diggnation and This Week In Tech.

A while ago, I created the site PsychicProgrammer.com as a place to gather up programming-related stories from various corners of the Internet. I whipped up some code to automatically gather RSS feeds from various programming-related websites and pull the stories to turn them into Movable Type postings. I've had a few people ask how I did this, so I thought I'd post the code with some explanation of what's going on.

Spring has finally arrived here in the Great White North. Time to give the lawn a trim (it's looking pretty bad because it was getting kind of long last fall and then, all of a sudden, it was covered by snow). My wife pulled out the lawn mower and tried to start it. After sitting all winter, it didn't want to start. I thought that it was about time it had some TLC.
