  • Ex commercial (sourdough) Baker here. Cast iron will be handed down to your children’s children.

    What we used was basic (good quality) sheet metal bread pans. Avoid coatings, or anything fancy… Sure they may do something in the short term… But… Same with pyrex. They used to be good, but quality has gone way down in the past 20 years, and you have to be real careful with them, like they’re made of glass or something ;)

    This is one place, where possibly the cheapest option is what will win the day. Keep it simple silly :) don’t overthinking it, get something, and get baking!

    I have used Ubuntu for years on and off, since the days you could have them send you a cd in the mail, with a free copy of Ubuntu. I recently installed Ubuntu server 22.04, and saw some serious red flags.

    1. Ubuntu pro account - canonical send to be withholding security updates, until you subscribe. This was clickbaited during the command line install with “you are missing out on 97 security updates”
    2. snap, although very slick, and quick to set up, seems very resource intensive, as to my understanding, if I install 2 snaps on my server, they will run 2 instances of Apache, MySQL, etc… Correct me if I’m wrong

    Especially the first point, just gave me an idea of which direction canonical is headed in… And I think I for one will start to look elsewhere. Absolutely happy to be wrong about any of my points





  • I use Firefox as well. My uneducated concern. I once installed Chrome on my PC for something specific. During the install, it asked if I would like to import my saved logins from Firefox. I thought: “let’s see”. In fact, it unencrypted the file, and loaded all my passwords. So, my thought is, of someone was to gain access to that file, how hard would it really be to unencrypted it? If chrome can do it as part of their wizard.

    Again, feel free to educate me, but that’s my concern
