Spent tonight watching “Real World” reruns on MTV. I’m rocked that MTV is now planning to air a total of 10 videos a week in their rotation. Yup. That’s it, 10 videos total. Even smaller blocks of those videos and more programming. Whatever happened to music?
Right now I’m waiting and watching fedex.com for the status of my shipment. You know, that All in Wonder Radeon 9700 Pro. It was in Indianapolis for most of the day and it just left and now I’m bouncing and I hope it’s here tomorrow. I’m horrible at waiting. I really am. I’m going to be up all night. Then I won’t be able to nap tomorrow. I’m waiting and waiting and waiting for this package to get here and I can’t wait to be able to unwrap and install it.
I know the Screen Savers say that ATI is horrible. Even the Gnome disses them. But you know what? I don’t care. They’re biased because Nvidea is a major sponsor. They *have* to diss ATI. I’m sure it’s in the contract and I’m very disappointed in their biased coverage of video cards. Everyone else in the world loves the Radeon and gives it a great review, so it makes no sense for them to take the stance they do on it.
It’s like I wrote the other day: the age of impartiality is over. With the future of TechTV on the line right now they can’t be impartial right now. They have to suck up to sponsors and that’s that. I mean look at the desperation … a sex show is making the air. It’s not even a GOOD sex show. It’s another lame cheap import from the looks at it. It’s very sad that 90% of the programming on TechTV are lame shows that no one else has. Know why no one else has them? BECAUSE THEY AREN’T ANY GOOD.
I’m sorry to rant like this, but it’s true. It’s getting worse all the time and it’s very troubling that they just trimmed the screen savers by another half hour just so they could put on even more of the lame programming. I realize that live TV is very expensive, but come on. Let’s remember WHY people watch … it sure ain’t for a technology sex show.
Rant over.
