原文: 10 Cool Geek Gadgets for the Kitchen

Being a geek is not just reserved for the computer room - it pervades every aspect of your life. In order to enrich the lives of the geeks on the site, we have produced this list of 10 cool geek gadgets especially for use in the kitchen! Enjoy!

10
R2 D2 Trash Can

R2D2 Trashcan

Every geek must have at least one item of Star Wars memorabilia - and if you don’t - this is a great item to start the collection. You can keep your old pizza crusts and soda cans in here, as well as your old draft copies of quantum physics papers. Unfortunately the trash can doesn’t beep and squeak like R2, but it is better than nothing!

Tetris Ice Moulds

Tetrus

Tetris. Ice. Moulds. What more can I say? These are a design concept so you can’t buy them yet, but once they are out, I will definitely be buying some for my next geek cocktail party!

8
Tic Tac Toast

Tictactoast

With Tic Tac Toast you can now exercise your brain at breakfast too! Grab some peanut butter and your favorite jam and have a tic tac toast competition. The winner eats the toast so you had better brush up on your tic tac toe skills or it will be cold left-over pizza for you.

7
Eye Vac

Eyevac

This is perfect for the geek who likes to eat his pizza standing up in the kitchen. When you are done, all you need to do is sweep the crumbs in the general direction of the Eye Vac and it will suck them all up! You don’t even need to bend down! What could be more perfect for the less active geek than this?

Digital Hour Glass

Digital-Hour-Glass-1

This isn’t the most thrilling of gadgets, but I had to include it because it looks so cool! I have recently been looking for a new egg timer and this is definitely the one I am buying.

5

Hood Toaster Concept

Hood-Toaster-2

Unfortunately this gadget it still only a concept, but what a GREAT looking toaster! I will be first in line to buy one of these when it makes it to the production stage. It works by sliding a small cage under the hood which holds the bread in place. Very very nice.

4
Nutritional Scales

Dietaryscales

They say you are what you eat, and these kitchen scales can tell you, exactly, the nutritional content of just about any food you use to prepare a meal. The scales come with an in-built computer that can analyze the nutritional content of the food you are weighing, from a database of over 1,400 different foodstuffs. The scales not only report on nutritional information, but they can keep a record of total dietary intake, for up to two people, so that you can monitor calorie intake as well as other important dietary information over time.

Grenade Fire Extinguisher

Pinqy Fire Extinguisher

One of these would look cool in every geeks kitchen! I would recommend that you not wear one on your belt when in public as you may get tazed bro. This is definitely a must have for every geek - especially those with questionable talent in the kitchen!

2
Voodoo Knife Block

Knifeset

A friend of mine owns one of these knife sets but in blood red, and I can tell you - it is even cooler in person than in the photo. This is probably the coolest knife set I have ever seen and at only $100 (approximately) it is a real steel!

ReadyWhenUR - SMS Kettle

Kettlepic-1

This has got to be the coolest gadget ever made! This kettle can be turned on and off via an SMS message! Imagine heading home after a long day and arriving home to find the kettle hot and ready for a good cup of coffee! I am almost certain that owning one of these will cause a dramatic increase in my daily intake of coffee. This product has been marketed but does not yet appear to be available for sale. Let’s hope we don’t have to wait much longer.

      做一名极客(Geek)可不是光窝在电脑间里就成——它遍及你生活的各个角落。为丰富本站中极客们的生活,我们打造了这张极客十大厨房酷装备榜单!请欣赏:

R2 D2垃圾桶
R2D2 Trashcan
      每个极客都至少得有一件星球大战的纪念品——要是你还没有,那就从这一件开始收藏吧。你可以扔进过期的披萨饼和空饮料罐,还有量子物理学的论文草稿。可惜的是这个垃圾桶不会像R2那样发出嘟嘟吱吱的声音,但也总比没有强!

俄罗斯方块冰模
Tetrus
      俄罗斯方块。冰。模子。我还有什么可说的?这还只是个设计概念,所以你还买不到;但一旦它们上了市,我肯定会为我的下一次极客鸡尾酒会买上几个!

Tictactoast
     有了井字游戏吐司,你就能在吃早饭的同时锻炼脑子了!刮点儿花生酱和你最喜欢的果酱,来一次井字游戏比赛吧,赢家才能吃掉这片吐司。所以你最好温习一下井字游戏的技巧,不然留给你的就只有剩下的冷披萨了。
 
7
“看着就行”真空吸尘器
Eyevac
      对于那些喜欢站在厨房里吃披萨的极客们来说,这件装备简直妙极了。当你吃完的时候,你只需把碎屑大致扫到吸尘器的方向,它就会把它们统统吸掉!你甚至连腰都不用弯!还有什么能比它更讨那些懒得动弹的极客们的欢心呢?
 
6
数字沙漏
Digital-Hour-Glass-1
      这并不是件震撼人心的装备,但我必须让它上榜,因为它实在太酷了!我最近正在找一个新的煮蛋计时器,而这绝对就是我要买的。
 
5
罩式烤箱
Hood-Toaster-2
      可惜这件装备还只是个概念,但这个烤箱看上去太棒了!等它进入了生产阶段,我会第一个排队去买。它的使用方法是将一个装有面包的小笼子推入到加热罩下,非常非常精致。
 
 4
营养秤
Dietaryscales
      人们说吃啥补啥,而这款厨房秤就能精确地告诉你任何食物的营养含量。它含有一个内置的计算器,能根据含超过1400种食品的数据库,分析出所称食物的营养成分。除了报告营养成分,这款秤还能为最多两个人保存饮食摄入总量的记录,你可以时时监控自己的卡路里摄入量,以及其他重要的饮食信息。
 
3
手榴弹灭火器
Pinqy Fire Extinguisher
      这样一个小玩意儿在每个极客的厨房里都会酷毙了!不过我建议你别在公共场合把它别在腰带上,不然你可能就要被警察的神经控制枪放倒了。这绝对是每个极客的必备品——尤其是那些对厨房没什么天分的!
 
2
巫毒刀架
Knifeset
      我的一个朋友就有这么个刀架,不过是血红色的,我还可以告诉你:实物比照片可酷多了。这可能是我见过最酷的刀架了,而且只要大约100美元,真正的钢制品!

 随时待命——短信电热壶
 Kettlepic-1
      这应该是史上最酷的小器具了!这个电热壶可以通过手机短信来控制开关!想象一下经过长长的一天工作,到家时就有一壶热水等着你,正好可以泡一杯不错的咖啡!我几乎可以肯定,拥有这个壶会大大增加我每天所喝的咖啡量。这件产品正在做市场宣传,但市面上还买不到;希望我们不用等太久。
