Bugs and Annoyances
BTW, I've meaning to mention this for a while, so before I forget:
1) The TW HD DVR has a minor flaw when recording shows. Randomly, about once every 5 shows, it doesn't "rewind" the recorded show. Meaning, when you try to start watching it, it is at the last minute of the recorded show. That may accidentally reveal details of what happened, or may cause you to see what's coming up on the next episode. Not good. Kind of annoying.
2) The new Chase ATMs are very fast, I will give them that. However, they have started sticking offers at the end of your transactions. For example, you withdraw money and when done they will ask you if you want to sign up for a credit card. That would be OK if done out of process, meaning once your session is over. The problem is that they do it within your session. So, they effectively force you to hang around and answer yes or no to whatever they ask you. Otherwise the machine says "Do you need more time?" That sucks, I don't want to have to answer at all, when I am done I want to talk away and have the session expire in 3 seconds or less, very annoying. Bank of America does something similar with their credit cards, when you logout from your online session, the insert an offer before your session is over - bad, bad, marketers. I consider these practices intrusive.
