Low-energy European systems reboot from deep sleep in one to two minutes.
What sort of system takes that long to come out of sleep?
This sounds like more evidence that competency is not required in order to be successful in business. :-)
Here, on Comcast, it takes so long to switch channels (sometimes multiple seconds), that channel surfing is no longer reasonable. Additionally, the channel listings are limited to less than half a screen so they can cram more ads in, so locating interesting shows is an exercise in frustration. A Netflix-style, information-dense interface is now so superior that I see absolutely no future for cable television systems.
- cantbecool 15y agoMy thoughts exactly. I could not believe the recent cable box firmware updates Comcast rolled out. When I press the channel up or down button the remote, I see a light blink on the box indicating it received my input, but the cable box is so sluggish that when I press channel up a few times, it takes a few seconds to interpret my input and change the channel. It is bizarre that they did not do proper quality assurance testing on the set top boxes they are disseminating out to subscribers.
