There is some weird loophole in Baltimore that allowed bars to stay open all night on new years eve, and the first year I lived there I didn't know about it. Was very confused when I left the bar and the sun was coming up.

    Does anyone else feel like the more they learn about fucked up history and current events the more we have to worry about? The older I get, and as I learn about history, the more things I have to think about that keep me up at night. Maybe ignorance is bliss after all?

    EDIT: I should have mentioned originally that I'm a person that is hyper vigilant (on the spectrum) and can't not notice things. I notice every little detail of everything I see. Why is the guy at the grocery store blocking the entire aisle and is completely oblivious that people can't get by? Why did that person turn without a turn signal? I notice people's body language. I meticulously pick apart things that people say and extract meaning that I'm sure they never intended. I originally thought it was OCD, but I don't have any of those traditional trappings. I wish I could just turn it off, as it's exhausting.

    This essentially sums up how I go through my day. I wish I could not know/notice things: https://youtu.be/dmbtt3iGXzg

    I've owned a Pinephone Pro since launch, and have tried to daily drive it on and off for years with limited success. It's sitting in a drawer at the moment because echo cancellation doesn't work on phone calls regularly.

    Anyways, I have a Pixel 3a sitting around that needs a battery replacement, but I wanted to ask here if anyone else is running Linux on it? And if so, how is the experience? I've been using Linux for decades, so I have no problem working around quirks, but I just want a Linux phone I can text and make phone calls on. I really don't have too many advanced app needs other than podcasts and web browsing.

    Thanks in advance to anyone that replies.

     

    Over my years I've owned many types of non-stick pans. Judge me as you see fit, but I've owned Teflon, stainless steel, ceramic, and cast iron pans, but none of them seem to stay "non-stick" for more than a few years. I've had the best luck with cast iron, but my wife doesn't like to use them because they're heavy. I hand wash them all with soap and water, but they all seem to lose their ability to shed off what I cook in them. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good non-stick pan?

    EDIT: It seems like the consensus is on cast iron, or ceramic steel. I just looked it up, and there are "slim" cast iron pans, so maybe that'll be a happy medium. Thanks for all the anecdotes and suggestions folks.
