April 28, 2010 – I applaud Serious Eats for attempting sous vide in a beer cooler, but the adventurous article didn't convince me that the mass sous vide revolution would come via Coleman or Igloo.

@Chewbenator: Impatience is a virtue... oh wait, no that's not right, it's PATIENCE. UK election effed things up, but now we're getting back on track.

"Once, we were makers. Now most of us are users." Am I the only person who thinks the 'we' in the first sentence and the 'us' in the second sentence are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT sets of people, the latter much larger than the former?

@Potentaint: You should watch those embedded videos. You will thank me.
@MrCheatachu: Basically. :)
@Tank: The first FreeAgent Theater was crap. The Theater+ is way better. Don't confuse the two.

@fleebailey33: Yes, great app--had a mention, but trimmed it out for some reason.
@Ninety-9: No, you've got it wrong. Just because Apple uses the format doesn't mean their books are "universal." In fact, you can't read Apple's ePubs on other readers--a point I make in this piece. Don't be fooled!
@Lacara: It's Lutheran, as I say up top. And re: NRSV, I don't know for sure but there may be some licensing issue about the translation.
As far as the Bible app, you can do a lot of messing around. I haven't played with it fully, but it's a pretty sweet app. I think there's an iPhone version too.
@TheSonOfKrypton: Well, considering they usually print out the readings, I guess it's a step up from inkjet? They liked the iPad.
