Oblivion had some really nice areas but also some damp swampy areas I had no desire to be in! I actually prefer the cold dry snowy areas over damp areas!

Please give the thing rounded sides like the SE (and older phones with that case). I’m getting so sick of the sharp corners of all the current phones and the way they dig into my hands.

Aluminum is reactive too. But it tends to hold onto a seasoning really well!

Carbon steel and cast iron cookware have reactive metal surfaces that will rust if left exposed to moisture and air, especially when heated. To use these materials of cookware you need to season them which involves washing the surface clean and applying a very thin layer of oil which you then heat up to a high temperature (usually past the smoke point, but not strictly necessary).

The heating of oil in contact with the metal causes the oil molecules to polymerize and bond to the metal surface. Done properly, this gives your cast iron and carbon steel cookware a smooth, glassy, slightly brown protective polymer layer which prevents rust and helps foods release (though not as well as nonstick pans). The seasoning process can be repeated as many times as you like and it builds up more and more layers which darken over time. A well seasoned piece of cast iron or carbon steel cookware will look shiny and jet black, though this is not necessary for cooking.

The downside of these materials is that acidic or basic foods can damage the polymer layer and dissolve it right off the pan with enough heat and cooking time. Tomato sauce is a classic example of an acidic food that will eat away at the seasoning of a cast iron or carbon steel pan. A well seasoned pan can still be used to cook a tomato sauce, but not one you plan to be simmering for hours and hours (like some Sunday meat sauce like you’d see in Goodfellas).

Stainless steel (as well as enameled or porcelain coated) cookware is nonreactive so you can use it to cook acidic or basic foods no problem!

Stainless steel! Neither of those is something you want to use to simmer a tomato sauce.

Methylene blue is used as an antifungal for aquarium fish.

I live in Canada. We get very humid summers but the winters are way below freezing. Below freezing temperatures make the air extremely dry, with outdoors plunging to 0% humidity.

Humidifiers are needed to maintain indoor humidity though you can’t raise it too much or you’ll get condensation inside the walls and on the windows, leading to mold issues.

Doesn’t matter! Could get that thing NASA clean room levels of clean and I’m still not going to towel off my butt before my face. That’s just weird!

I do, but I still wouldn’t do that!

So you dry off your butt first and then your face with the same towel?

I bet the sign is just driven right off the serial port so Linux just treats it as a console to log to. Then their custom signage app just starts right up from init. Nice!
