  1. It's an old cliché, but in most cases it's PEBKAC Also: use Linux to not only be safe..r, but also to support open source and free software (and not to be depended on single monopolistic corporations)
  2. Yeah, it's much more ambient than their last few records... still nice. I think Amanda Palmer's new album (which was completely financed by a Kickstarter campaign) should be released soon, shouldn't it?
  3. Slashing It Down ~ Flies On You (2012) Delilah ~ The Dresden Dolls (2006) Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space ~ Spiritualized (1997) How has that song not made it yet? Fun Fact: The title of the song (and album) are a quote from Sophie's World "Only philosophers embark on this perilous expedition to the outermost reaches of language and existence. Some of them fall off, but others cling on desperately and yell at the people nestling deep in the snug softness, stuffing themselves with delicious food and drink. 'Ladies and Gentlemen,' they yell, 'we are floating in space!' But none of the people down there care."
  4. Is that this one? That sounds almost... disturbing, I have to say but I guess that's what it's intended to be.
  5. It's actually a user-specific setting, even though I admit I don't remember which option is used as default for it. You can go to My Fusion > Control Panel > Display Settings and there chose for yourself whether or not you want to "Display Online Details"
  6. I actually really like the video. The whole concept of "guy keeps stoically doing his thing while completely ignoring everything around him" reminds me of one of my favourite music videos of all: Rabbit in Your Headlights by UNKLE (directed by Jonathan Glazer) compliments to the whole film crew, it's a really good quality also the umbrella's awesome
  7. or you Beth Ditto? seriously, of course there are exceptions, quite a few of them in fact, but the "pretty face / no artistic talent" scheme is really not a new invention...
  8. You're saying that as if that was different in the past decades
  9. I know the meme with Justin Bieber vs Queen btw, fun fact: When Bohemian Rhapsody reached its peak of #9 in the Billboard Charts, the #1 was Disco Lady ~ Johnny Taylor

    Who is that?

    He does seem a bit familiar, but I just can't put a name to him... can anyone else?
  11. Torturing James Hetfield Well, we got James Hetfield And we tied him up tight Naked and cold We kept the strip lights bright Said what have you got for us James He said nothing at all So we dragged some speakers In from the hall James James James Just give us names names names James James James Well, we tried every tune in the songbook To loosen his tongue We played Simply Red nonstop He just swayed along Then we had an idea A new plan of attack Thought that even a deaf man Would bend and crack James James James Just give us names names names James James James Now look what we've brought for you James Your favorite disc It's Chumbawamba Their greatest hits (There's only one) Turned up the volume You should've heard him sing (Oh how he sings) He cried like a baby And told us everything (it was Lars!) James James James Just give us names names names James James James ("Torturing James Hetfield" is a response to James Hetfield's approval of the use of Metallica's music as a torture device against Iraqi prisoners at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. (Source))
  12. I guess they're not that popular, especially in the US, but I still enjoyed their albums, including the more recent ones
  13. Announcement on http://chumba.com so sad
  14. yeah... that I have a good dentist
  15. funny coincidence... yesterday they've pulled a wisdom tooth - and I've had no problems at all
  16. After reading your post I went there to put up some tags (are 'post-punk' and 'noise rock' appropriate in your opinion?), so that's how I noticed btw, could you direct your collaborator to this post? Generally, at least until you have a decent amount of listeners, I would always recommend putting up your music as "free full-length preview" Also the more users are tagging the music, the better it will be too! So if any of you SFers have a Last.fm account - use it to scrobble and to tag!
  17. That was fast looking forward to the video - I think Slashing it Down is my favourite track so far
  18. I mentioned this in the other thread already, how about adding your stuff to Last.fm too? It's CBS owned if that makes a difference Hit me with any questions you might have about it
