Yippee skippy, look at all the hate I created.

The Windows version is understandably terrible, but it's rather nice on OS X. What don't you like?

Faster than Safari? It's scrolling/pinch-to-zoom is pretty slick.

I wouldn't call them awful developers. Gawker sites are just really, really javascript heavy. Less so than when the redesign first hit (holy shit slow), but they're still pretty loaded.

The reason I like Pages so much is because it gives the distinct impression that it is a word processor, not a text editor. Not that Word can't be used for the same thing, but I know way too many people who are so ingrained in "typing = Word" that they even use it for long form Tumblr entries. Once I install Pages…

You are using tools the way they were originally intended: a text editor for writing, a word processor for formatting. Two very different tools, often confused.

I had a boss when I was a teenager who swore by this stuff. I had to remind her that the dark scummy stuff it would create from scrubbing stainless steel sinks was not dirt, but was in fact bits of sink it was eating away.

Not sure if it's been mentioned on Lifehacker before, and it's a little basic, but the Cmd-Tab box has a couple tricks. When you highlight an icon, continue to hold Cmd, then press H to hide all windows from that app. Also works with Q to quit that app. You can quickly close all apps this way by alternating between…

Pretty sure they need to adjust the Kalamazoo borders about 1 mile further east. I am not in Battle Creek dammit! #ruralproblems

That might be the most pompous looking building I've ever seen, and I've seen a fair few Apple stores.

Well in that second link, they said the demo was shown on a 70 ft screen. This IMAX screen is almost 152 ft, which would, I would think, stretch those pixels a bit more.

This Foxconn thing really gets my dander up. Especially when "normal" people who know me as the Apple guy feel really cool confronting me asking how I feel about Apple using child labor and sweatshops to make iPhones.

Well Thunderbolt/Light Peak is basically PCIe over a small port, so some PCIe card enclosures have been announced. Basically like a daughterboard add-on.

Adding transitions is not encoding. I guess it sort of is, but is so nonintensive it is typically handeled by the GPU.

I was actually wondering recently how Path so magically knows when somebody I know joins Path. I assumed some Facebook wizardry, but I guess not.

Did they try tapping the gauge?

I've always used X Lossless Decoder for OS X [code.google.com]
