I completely agree, fwiw!

Pretty sure the tagline should read "Cuisinart Soup Maker and Blender: because your existing blender and microwave aren't a sufficient method of making soup, and/or you're too lazy to use both".

Having used unity on Ubuntu and GNOME 3/shell on Arch, I'm definitely more of a fan of the GNOME way of doing things.

Indeed. Perhaps we should modify the sentence so it becomes correct while using "effecting":

Deary me, that video is so bad. The screenshots are also blatantly superimposed over it, too. (The idea itself is quite nifty)

I came here looking just for this. One Internet to you, sir.

I'm guessing "pasties" has a slightly different meaning in the US to how it's interpreted in the UK :)

Call me cynical, but Colgate don't want to do something like this: keep the current package, and people don't get the last bit, thus buying more toothpaste sooner.

Currently suffering from the lifehacker effect, apparently...

Dammit. I clicked *just* to make this post, and you beat me to it.

...and you just put him in charge of the entire facility.

heh, I sympathise: Maemo (-> Meego) is clearly an operating system that had promise. I have a friend that absolutely loves his N900. Can't help feeling a bit of remorse for Meego, but still.

I love the part at 0:43ish, where two N9s exchange an image. It implies that any two people in a given space are actually /likely/ to own an N9...

At the risk of flaming, I really quite like the new grid layout. Admittedly I don't quite see how it'll be good on a desktop yet, but this is the first of many videos to come, and you haters should take some time to see how things pan out. As many others have said, you can turn off the grid.

I have been trying for 2 minutes to break my rather tough Braeburn apple. Now my hands hurt. Tough apple, or puny wimpish hands?

Ah, but In the UK (as I imagine you know), Coriander refers to the leaf, *and* to the seeds (except those are called "coriander seeds"). We have no "cilantro" here at all. I don't think I've ever put ground coriander seeds in a recipe online, though.

well, thanks all. I did notice "steel cut" oats above but I've never heard of them before... wonder if they can be acquired here! The whole US/UK different names thing is a little odd. I've been putting "coriander (cilantro)" and the like on my blog for ages just in case anyone from the US reads it :)
