ICC Cricket World Cup 2011: 1st Match, Group B - Bangladesh v India

Posted: 19 Feb 2011 12:30 PM PST

Amish, you can bowl out a team thats trying to win it......

Bangladesh were never trying it, once Tamim was out.

Even Gavaskar was saying in between - "Bangladesh should target 300 - to reduce the NRR, instead of going for a win". And they were doing that.
Once you go onto calculated risk, there's no chance you could get out on a wicket like this, especially with some dew coming into play.
Agreed they fought back well to begin with, but were pathetic in the end - and cudnt even reach 300, which seemed simpler.

Watch ICC World Cup in HD without a single ad!

Posted: 19 Feb 2011 11:24 AM PST

Is there a significant difference in picture quality when watching a cricket match with and without HD? Is it worth paying extra for a few HD channels?

Hell yeah...its worth the money really and ad free...that is freaking sweet especially with those morons reducing ur screen size with those irritating ads...and pricing is still an unknown commodity in Indian market so who knows what the future could hold...but damn no ads and picture quality is stunning....you will feel the sd telecast is pathetic after watching hd...

ICC Cricket World Cup 2011: 3rd Match, Group A - Sri Lanka v Canada

Posted: 19 Feb 2011 10:19 AM PST

True.. but its SL (a better side) in SL.... NZ is their (Zim, Ken, Can)'s best bet , maybe along with Pak.. but do not think really there will be one, though Zim may get beaten by Ken or Can (not sure if it can be called an upset though)

GTPL Ushers in Cable Digitization with Next-Generation Cisco Set-Top

Posted: 19 Feb 2011 09:43 AM PST

Actually, the original product of GTPL is cable channel. It is indulged in cable network from starting. So, it always wants to be competition with DTH. Fast growing in gujarat.

I have taken its internet but at some instant it is satisfactory. There is no downtime but I face some slow speed issue with my 256kbps plan. I normally get various from ranging 5-22kbps. Sometimes it goes upto 30-32kbps with some selected sites.

How to use fivenet in ubuntu linux?!?

Posted: 19 Feb 2011 08:48 AM PST

fivenet cant be the name of your provider. it would be something like ssvfivenet.

To check, go to windows check the properties of your dialer. In 'General" it will show you service name.. write/copy it like that. Small/large, as it is. That will be your name.

If not that then in linux you can use following command to find out available services on the broadband.

#sudo pppoe-discovery

or you can just call your service provider. that ssv people for it ;)

Rs. 10220 crore/year IRCTC fraud? Possibly run by agents?

Posted: 19 Feb 2011 02:54 AM PST

I had similar troubles and did manage to get a booking once but in my urgency I entered my CC information wrong :(
Eventually had to pay an agent, cannot help it, we live in a crooked country.
I heard that when booking via mobile, the servers are different and that usually succeeds, not sure though.
Also there is a quick book in irctc, that should typically be used when booking tatkal.

Actve Sports not available in full screen mode

The rolling camera is working now. So there are 2 camera angles. When the service was discontinued 3 years ago, full screen live telecast was possible and Actve content was possible to be viewed just by pressing the red button.

This was not expected from Tata Sky. No cricket lover would prefer to watch the match in smaller size.

Now here's the confusing part:
Yes completely true: Users having IP of 182.237.xxx.xxx used to get only the internet speeds & not WAN speeds... But now the people [like me] who used to get ONLY 58.146.116.xxx or 202.177.241.xxx IP are getting even 182.237.xxx.xxx IPs. I got scared 1 day thinking even i wud get internet speeds; But I was wrong. I get WAN speeds in Popeye Hub [DC++] when i'm on 182.237.xxx.xxx IP.

So u cannot say that people of 182.237.xxx.xxx IP range WILL get low speeds [as i used to tell (scare) everyone before.. ;) ].

This is my assumption: SOME people who have joined Fivenet the latest [I guess] will get only internet speeds on popeye hub... {I presume that they will be connected to the WAN later by their local reseller (cabble-wallah)} {One more assumtion by me is that the NEW RESELLERS of fivenet may not be connected to the WAN..}

your assumptions are wrong my friend...there are users for over 3 years now who have recently got shifted to 182.237 range ...just like you my ip also keeps shifting between 58.146 and 182.237 range but i can download in mbps from others...only these users who always are assigned 182.237 range are giving net speed.

The Department of Justice and Homeland Security's ICE office proudly announced that they had seized domains related to counterfeit goods and child pornography. What they failed to mention, however, is that one of the targeted domains belongs to a free DNS provider, and that 84,000 websites were wrongfully accused of links to child pornography crimes.
