Yeah the durability is the greatest thing. I can use metal spatulas and scrape away. No need to baby it, it’s literally a hunk of metal. I don’t even give a shit how the seasoning looks anymore, if food doesn’t stick badly it’s all good.
You don’t need any special equipment. Chain mail is useful to have in general though (not just for cast iron), but not mandatory.
Imo pans just take too much space in the dishwasher so I’ll just wash them immediately after use. Takes like 30 seconds because the pan still being hot helps immensely. After drying I like to oil them, just because I like how they look oiled, literally no other reason.
I prefer to have all 3: stainless, cast iron and carbon steel. Personally I have a carbon steel wok that does double duty as a frying pan.
I really don’t understand why anyone feels the need to hate on a desktop environment. It’s not like on windows or mac where it is what it is and you’re stuck with it. If you don’t like it, just shut up and switch to something else (unless you like your de overall but have some improvements in mind of course, no reason to shut up for that).
Addicted to caffeine and sugar at the same time.
I’m 26 and I’ve already been called a boomer by younger people. I don’t really see the problem as to me it’s just funny and reminds me to try my best not to eventually become a boomer that hates everything that isn’t how it used to be.
I started on home assistant with just a couple Smart bulbs and oh boy has it gotten out of hand since then lol. Home bridge sounds good if that’s all that’s needed though.
I meant as a regular computer user who’s new to Linux. Like most of them would be.
The whole point imo was supposed to be to test linux from a point of view of a regular user, and that while surely a bit extreme, isn’t too far from what might happen when a newbie stumbles on an issue (which may or may not happen depending on luck).
Then again he did test it on uhh, quite interesting hardware that’s almost guaranteed to have issues. Maybe it would have been more fair for him to switch to a more conventional desktop for the duration of the experiment.
I didn’t really see that affecting the market share of Linux much either way. Luke who has a normal desktop also had his fair share of more minor issues and so did I when I ran fedora for a bit over half a year on my desktop last year ago, as a similar experiment. What has and will affect the market share, positively too, is the steam deck, which Linus is also a big fan of.
I still use linux a lot in my daily life even if not on my desktop, my home server runs on TrueNAS scale and I have a couple projects running on raspberry pi’s (more probably coming). But for desktop use, I’ll let it cook for a couple more years before giving it another try. Running Linux on my desktop is absolutely my dream and end goal, but unfortunately it still has too many issues specifically for my (actually very broad) use case of video editing, Photo editing, 3D modeling, graphics design, gaming and more. If it was only one of those uses, I’d be able to fairly easily come by with solutions, but when it’s all of them combined, it adds up and becomes a real chore, unfortunately.
He definitely has life-changing amounts of mine for sure. But it’s definitely good if he puts effort into teaching his children not to take it for granted and be nice to other people. From the videos his kids appear in, they seem very well mannered.
That might be the worst video of them all to be mad at. Absolutely no harm done and everyone was clearly having lots of fun, the store owner included. There are videos with actual issues but this ain’t it chief.
It’s not that deep bro.
And the workers make just as much fun of Linus, if not even more. It’s not a one way street, and it’s clear that Linus only does it when he knows the other person will also find it funny. It’s nothing more but humorical banter between people that know each other quite well.
Also lots of those “upgrades” are things that wouldn’t have happened at all, if it weren’t for a video. And seeing how much fun the workers have in those videos, I find it quite unlikely that they feel insulted doing them.
Also, did we forget that the ultimate tech upgrade is a thing? The series where the workers get quite beefy upgrades to their very own homes, and it’s not even limited to pc’s. Linus even personally painted at least a couple of the workers walls lol, so I’m pretty sure “the workers being held as peasants” is quite far from the truth.
As someone who has sometimes watched wan show etc, it’s actually quite obvious that he actually knows quite a lot. The problem is that their channel covers so many topics that it’s almost impossible for one single person to have in-depth knowledge about all of them. Hence they have a writing team and Linus is more often than not, just a host.
None of that is an excuse for the issues in their videos for sure, but as long as they realize the problem and work to fix it, it’s all good imo and their recent releases schedule is a good indicator that they have taken it quite seriously, as they no longer force themselves to upload daily.
I also quite like a few of their writers, they also host and those are often the most fun videos to watch these days.
I love gnome overall and it’s my favorite de, but the missing features and extensions being almost mandatory for basic functions definitely are a pain.
Extensions are cool but the basics should be built in.
Your current gas prices are about at the level where a lot of people used to cruise at where I live. Haven’t really seen it much since it rose to about 2€ per liter (7.57€ or $8.29 per gallon).
I don’t even remember the last time I seasoned mine. Definitely not even once a year.
