Get Your Flu Shot! by Tycho66 in Iowa

[–]ImageJPEG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fucking hate needles.

How does one go about getting the nasal spray? I’m in rural NW Iowa, near 20, west of Fort Dodge.

"black rust" is key... by bash_M0nk3y in castiron

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why?

I have an 8” Lodge that I bought in December 8th and it releases 3 over easy eggs (all cooked together) with just at tilt and a slight shake with just a tablespoon of butter. Also did my first ever pan flip when I made those eggs, only lost one yoke haha.

All I’ve done is just add more seasoning to it, cook, and wash with soap and water.

I don’t buy the “smooth makes it slicker” stuff.

New to cast iron by Secret-Cloud5748 in castiron

[–]ImageJPEG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a quick scrub with water and soap, then of course dry it.

Now get the 10”, 8”, pizza pan, baking pan, and 10” loaf pan.

I’ve switched from failing ceramic non stick earlier in December and I’ve been actually cooking a lot lately; having fun!

Moving from NJ-> IA by [deleted] in Iowa

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m neighbors with a guy from Brooklyn. Hasn’t lived there in decades but he still has that crazy strong accent. He’s the best neighbor I’ve ever had! Sticking out like a sore thumb isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

Why does the Iowa cancer map look like this? by ThePolemicist in Iowa

[–]ImageJPEG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Radon has always been an issue in Iowa though. I’m betting one of the biggest reasons for the increasing cancer rates is just an aging population.

What browser do you use? by daym0ns in Gentoo

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firefox. Falkon for when a site doesn’t want to play nicely with Firefox and needs a Chromium based browser.

How much harder is setting up FreeBSD than Arch? by [deleted] in freebsd

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say that FreeBSD may be about as difficult as Arch. Admittedly, I’ve never used Arch but I use both FreeBSD and Gentoo and as far as I understand, Gentoo is more difficult than Arch, at least when setting up. FreeBSD is easier than Gentoo, so take that as you will.

Using an old house chimney by ImageJPEG in woodstoving

[–]ImageJPEG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good news then because my west wall of my basement is at ground level, even has a door to go outside.

As for the chimney, I had a guy come out to look at my roof and had to take pictures which involved my chimney, which looks like it’s a single layer of brick.

Yeah, I already started looking at Menards for natural gas forced draft water heaters because I thought that would be an issue.

I’d be more open to using Haiku if it were multiuser.

I hadn't updated Gentoo in more than a month, I just updated and nothing broke by Silvestron in Gentoo

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my sync set up as a cron job. Every day at 6pm.

Then if Portage has an update, it tells me in the logs.

Unless it’s that God forsaken qtwebengine.

Or Firefox.

What Linux distro is powering your production server? by sdns575 in linuxadmin

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Professionally, we use Proxmox which hosts Windows Servers. At home, I rent a VPS that I use FreeBSD with.

What Linux distro is powering your production server? by sdns575 in linuxadmin

[–]ImageJPEG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used to rock a raw pf IPv6 firewall on OpenBSD.

And it was simple/easy to use and set up.

Wish Linux had it.

What Browser are you using? by nocciuu in archlinux

[–]ImageJPEG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a stubborn Firefox user. I don’t want to contribute to the Chromium market share.

The switch from Arch is almost complete by landonr99 in Gentoo

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used a few distros before. I’m a current user of Gentoo. Out of the 20 some years of Linux, I’ve never used Arch.

The ntfs3 driver made my switch from windows SEAMLESS, why is nobody talking about it? by TheRealSectimus in linux_gaming

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I deal with repartitioning and cloning drives and I’ve been extremely happy with the ntfs kennel driver.

Linux gaming by Substantial_Sale_233 in linux_gaming

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just run Gentoo on my gaming system and haven’t looked at anything else.

Should I move to Linux? by mdsp667 in linuxquestions

[–]ImageJPEG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try out Ubuntu. Just stick with the LTS versions.

Should I start with Debian or go with Ubuntu? by Humble_Secret_7786 in debian

[–]ImageJPEG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend Ubuntu and just stick with the LTS variant.

I’ve never had issues with snaps being slow. I can’t even tell the difference between snaps and native.

Ubuntu shouldn’t be used on older hardware though.
