  • I got a Wagner at a thrift store and it was covered in a burnt on crust that I couldn’t even chip off with a hammer. My mom told me her grandfather used to just throw it in a bonfire and let it all burn off. After watching a video where a guy got rid of the same crust in an oven on self clean mode, I decided to go the bonfire route. I don’t have a self cleaning oven. The iron did start glowing red after a while, but once it cooled, no sign of the crust. I was amazed and now that pan acts better than most non-stick I’ve ever used.


  • My opinion on tech is that there are cool things being done that do one shiney thing, but everyone disregards the shit it produces behind the scenes. Blookchain is an awesome concept, the whole chain depends on all the other parts of it, but the fact that in order to use it, you have to download the whole thing in several systems. The size of a single will grow so large, only a few companies will be able to analyze it at scale. And AI is a huge joke. Nobody should be celebrating generative AI. A ton of computing power that is dangerous to our eco system, and it’s all trained on shady material. Nobody is doing anything significant about the power consumption, just coming up with agencies to help companies use AI properly. It’s all a joke. Most of our most influencial technologies are just someone asking how to make big bucks off something comes else created for free.
