Compulsory bicycle helmets in New Zealand - http://www.cycle-helmets.com/zealand...
"There is no evidence that mandatory helmets reduced cyclist injuries/hospital admissions relative to overall road safety trends, despite the law causing a 51% reduction in public cycling participation and an average 90% of remaining cyclists wearing helmets." - Ross Miller
Someone found the guy for me. Unfortunately, while a helmet saved his life, it's not an entirely happy story. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news... Still, he advocates that people wear their helmets. http://www.youtube.com/watch... - Spidra Webster

Apple Radio is amazing if for no other reason than the first station I made was based on the song "Wake Me Up" by Avicii and the first song they choose to play is "Don't Wake Me Up" by Chris Brown... Hilarious

LOL! There is an air freshener in the bathroom I am in that makes a fart sound when it releases its scent. Epic.

Wait... BlackBerry's big announcement today is that they're making an iPhone & Adroid messenger app so people who bought new phones in the last 5 years can text the ~16 people on earth who still use a BlackBerry?

"Please keep in mind it can take 7-10 business days to completely remove your email address from our records." - No, it doesn't take 7-10 business days to remove an email address, asshats. But at least you're honest about not actually removing my email address...
You know... it has been over 6 years since Office 2007 was released and I still spend *forever* searching for things I know exist, but I'm not sure which ribbon they're on.

What Microsoft has been doing for the last so many years seems like changing the UI of everything, just for the sake of change. And after so many years of everything being basically the same, and users getting used to doing things a certain way, expecting things in certain places, etc., all this change seems to do nothing but make all their users, that used to be productive experts in what they were doing, go back to being newbies. And it leaves people feeling frustrated and/or stupid. And nobody likes to feel stupid, especially when they are not. But this "I don't know what I am doing any more" effect then gets used as the excuse for more change, really bad changes, designed for the stupid and clueless that they think the majority of users are. Which just alienates their power users even more (and developers, too, when all the change breaks stuff with no hopes of ever being fixable). It's one of the reasons why even if I had the money to upgrade to the latest version of Windows, I wouldn't. I got very used to doing things a certain way using the classic Windows desktop that I have used from the very first day I booted up a Windows PC, and if I was to upgrade past XP I'd have to relearn things that have become instinct over the years. It's a real productivity killer, right up there with losing your keys somewhere in your house, when you have places to go and things that need to get done. Stability means a lot more than not crashing and THIS is something Microsoft seems to have forgotten. That said, I HATE that damn ribbon crap...and you will NEVER find it in any apps I develop, EVER! And I am seriously not only thinking of giving up developing apps for Windows, but also giving up using it at all. Just need a few more things to be able to make Linux feel like home, and some of them I can take with me and run under WINE while I wait, if I have to. (need replacements for Trout, Surfulater, Notezilla, and an app that can mimic the functionality of the classic Windows taskbar in ALL its glory) - April Russo (FForever!)

Sooo what does the pope actually do? Is there somewhere to look up what decisions a pope has made recently or something like that?

It seems pretty clear we're going to be told by the overlords that we need to have another screen attached to us. So... do you want to wear a new screen on your eye-wear or on your wrist?
Eye, definitely. - Andrew C (see frenf.it)
I think Glass would be a smartphone that's more accessible. The camera's pointed where I'm looking, the display is already in front of my eye instead of having to unlock my phone... - Andrew C (see frenf.it)
Neat Michael Jordan fact: He has been known to check into a hotel using the name Leroy Smith (the kid who beat him out for the last spot on the Laney High School team when he was in the tenth grade)
