You're right. Further discussion in that bug and on twitter [1] confirm that Firefox is affected after a restart. The author of this didn't restart.
So any removal instructions which don't include clearing out Firefox's certificates are incomplete. This includes Lenovo's published instructions.

I like the additional filtering in the experimental interface, for example to switch between "All" and "Hot". I could see that being quite useful. Though the experimental page has too much whitespace for my liking - I can see 5-6 stories on a page vs. 10 or so on the HN style page.
It would be great if it saved my preferences (Sort by, date range) since I usually end up flipping those values to the same thing.
One minor annoyance is "JavaScript" being picked up when I search for "java". Would be nice to have the option to search for whole words.
A very minor annoyance is usernames are treated the same as text in stories. If I search for 'IBM' for example, I'll get all stories submitted by user 'IBM'.
Does this work in the background, or do you have to have that app running?
For a while I was using an iOS app called BuzzClock. I liked the feature that it would give a different # of buzzes as you went through the hour. I found this helped reduce the need to check the time when I was heads-down on some work, or give a subtle reminder that I might be lingering too long on something.
But having to keep the app in the foreground ultimately killed it for me.
Waterloo does have a strong Math tradition. But further to that, for a long time the Computer Science degree at Waterloo was a specialization under their Bachelor of Mathematics degree. So you had to fulfill all of the requirements of the Math program and graduated with a "BMath". You were also offered interesting minors like "Combinatorics and Optimization" where you would get deep into Cryptography, Graph Theory and so on.
I can't say how it compares to other schools, but certainly many of my memories of CS at Waterloo were working feverishly through difficult math assignments so I could get back to the lab. ;)
For those that liked this, the video comes from a fantastic series called Petrolicious:

As a car nut I look forward to their videos and rewatch them regularly. They really do a better job of capturing "automotive enthusiasm" than any other series I've seen. They videos have a very positive energy and as a result the comments on these videos are also almost entirely positive - never seen this on YouTube before!
A few others that non-car-nuts might like are:

GPU acceleration is off by default in Chrome 10 on Windows XP.
It worked for me when I started Chrome with: chrome.exe --enable-webgl --ignore-gpu-blacklist
