Is anyone surprised by this? Small cities/towns are easier for more people to bike — less traffic to get around, usually shorter distances to travel, and because of their lower populations, a higher percentage is reached by fewer people.

I have the same issues. I wish they would work on making the service more stable instead of adding stupid image syncing and the like. I just want something that lets me text from the web (or their tablet app) reliably. Unfortunately, there aren't many other options, so I continue to use it. Although I find myself…

I can't believe I've never thought of cooking other stuff in my rice cooker. Steaming veggies sounds like a great idea. Thanks for the tip, Jacobm.

One tip I was hoping to see on this list is eating seasonally. While it's lovely that we can get raspberries in the middle of the Canadian winter, this is extremely wasteful from a financial, nutrition and environmental point of view. I save a lot of money buying all my produce from local producers when it's in…

Check which days of the week your grocery store butchers meat. On those days trimmings and bones are put on the shelves for making soup stock. For as little as $2 one can purchase enough chicken trimmings to make several litres of soup stock. Also, the produce department will have a shelf featuring discounted…

Let's make this more fun. He has to dress up as a pig and try to hump a sheik.

So, we're blaming social evolution for people's ridiculously stupid behavior on social media?

In some places it is illegal for the landlord to hold extra months rent in addition to what is allowable (first and last, deposit and last, etc...)

So uh... we are not allowed to watch?

Aw...I really wanted to see a time-lapse video of this. Cruel, cruel world...

Whoa, whoa, whoa. That's an extremely ignorant comment to make. As a person who has also "developed before", I'm calling shenanigans on your apparent deep knowledge of this game's code base. There is absolutely no way that you can know the exact means of this aspect's implementation. You can't just assume that…

Wow, flowers! Classy move for an honest mistake. (Still, how awful to have that happen in the first place.)

I vote we name him Pabu. All in favor?

I swear to god, if they don't name him Pabu.......

Now I miss Avatar: The Legend of Korra even more. Damn you io9!

This is what it looks like when you get bit by a spider. Ulcers and necrosis at the lower leg, destroying tissue almost down to the bones and tendons. It took several surgerys, daily treatment over several years til it finally healed up in 2011.

Just because you interact with a diverse group of people doesn't mean that you'll necessarily come across a wide range of names. Almost EVERY Hong Kong-Canadian person I know has a western name, for example (most of the people who DON'T are elderly, and culturally, I call most 80-somethings Poh Poh and Gung Gung…

I've always had a thing against web-installers. Not exactly sure why but they always bothered me. When I download the setup file, I want the setup file, not a tiny thing that'll later gather what it needs to install.

My inner programmer just screamed in horror. That's not just a design flaw. That's a security hole the size of Mt. Rushmore (or bigger).

Dihydrogen Monoxide.
