Agreed - but that's more Armand van Helden's doing than Tori Amos - listen to the two, and the similarities are, um, the voice. The music's v. different, and not the creation of Ms. Amos...
So yeah, she's remixed - but then we get onto "when a song is remixed to that extent, is it still the track of the original artist?" - Van Helden released Professional Widow under his own name, not really under Tori Amos's.
Every song on Play got sold (twice, I think), and 18's going much the same way. However, you won't hear his earlier stuff on ads or whatever a lot at all. The stuff on Animal Rights is understanbly not liked for adverts, because it's shit. But on Everything is Wrong, Ambient, and Story So Far? You won't hear that - in fact, he sued toyota for using "Go" (from his early days) without his permission.
Sorry to be pedantic, but that's just the way I am.
Actually, I'm amazed no-one's mentioned the godfathers of most electronica - Yello (Nasty site with flash). They've been around for years, and most of the stuff you hear now is still influenced by them.
Albums of choice are probably Stella, Pocket Universe, Zebra, and One Second - but they're my faves, not necessarily anyone elses.
Also, Oakenfolds OK, try to get the Sasha & Digweed mix album "Communication" - that rocks. Moby varies between good and awful - look for Everything Is Wrong, avoid Animal Rights.
You can enter an emergency call even on a phone with no credit and no sim, and that still wants a password to get in. It'll accept 999 or 112 as soon as the phone's on, basically. Oh, and it doesn't give a damn about networks - it'll go through on whatever's available.
I'd assume they would use some kind of filtering, where if that source of shedloads of calls hasn't moved in days/weeks/months then they're pretty sure it's an office building, not a traffic jam.
Of course, it could instead be a set of passengers on a train run by Virgin...
Would an extrapolation of this system be possibly used to detail train delays too? It's a wacky idea, but they haven't come up with anything else yet to reliably report that a) the train's late or b) that the train even exists (knowing some train operating companies propensity for cancelling them altogether.)
Yahoo Chat runs in Java applets. And yes, it runs fine in Opera.
I may not be the ultra-secure bod that some people in Slahdot are, but Opera 6.0 has never caused me any security problems, it runs everything I want it to, and doesn't give me hassle at any time because of it.
Of course, it not being IE is also a major bonus...:)
I joined one company (names have been deleted to protect the fuck-witted) about a week after the "I Love You" virus came out. There were about 500 I Love You's a day going to everyone, because they were all too stupid to set a message rule to delete anything with "Iloveyou" in the subject.
This was also a company where 3000+ items in you inbox was a sign you were doing your job right, because you didn't have time to delete/organise them...:|
I'd agree with this, actually. In all the companies I've worked with now, the great majority of the staff know what they need to find, and generally just get on and find it, without feeling the need to endlessly fuck off and find porn/IRC/Messenger clients etc. It was maybe 5-10% of the people in the companies who made up the massive majority of the bandwidth usage, getting pron, chatting, file-sharing etc.
So I just used to end up barring their connections through the network and firewall:)
Slashdot Mirror
it worked fine on my browser.
Ah well

Wrong.

Tori Amos? Electronic music? Bwahahahahaha.

Hope that helps.
That's definite bull.

And as with Status Quo records everywhere, every single one sounds the same as the last...
But when it comes to sports gear, what's the average life of a tennis racket in a pro match anyway? I doubt one lasts an entire competition.
:)
And when the racket's owned by someone like John Mcenroe, it's lucky to last the set...
Wood rackets were fun - but the wood strings didn't have the right amount of bounce to them.
The wooden racket - great for egg and sppon races, crap for tennis
Aren't the extremists already living in the caves?
:)
Oh no, they're not living there any more, are they?
I thought the main culture for scotland was penicillin. I'm obviously wrong.
And I'm worried I may be scottish - I was wanting England to lose too...
And "fresh" "frozen"
"Friendly" "Fire"
and my personal favourite "Tasty" "McDonalds"
All things considered, I found it quite amusing that your first response was "Jesus Christ!" considering it's some Christian Science paper....
It's off-topic because the initial Post was about Java, and the offtopic reply was about Javascript.
As another person has already said, Java != Javascript.

And the other obligatory question/statement :
I'd like to see a Beowulf cluster of these...
Man, if I had mod points, you'd have been modded up for that. First time I've laughed like that in a while.
Thanks...
And who the hell uses the "reply to all" anyway?
I don't think I've ever used it. Maybe that means I should get out less, or something.
Because - negative as it may sound - humans and spanners are fuckwits.
To be blunt - Yes.

Places like Moose Bosom (I'm not kidding - it's in this story) probably have problems with filtering by Keyword too.
And Fuchs Lubricants must have some real problems. Heh.
I thought it stood for Heroically Retarded - maybe that's just the calibre of HR staff I've had to deal with over the years.
And in these days of lawyer-speak, I guess I should point out I'm not anti-retard - I'm anti-HR.
it's also been in The Register so the hits are just gonna keep on ramping up...
I think you mean "the problem was manifest" - I could be wrong, but I don't think manifold means what you think it means, senor...
