Picked these up at an estate sale today. How'd I do?

Smaller one is a Griswold No. 8, marked 704H.

!

Larger one is a Wagner Ware 11 3/4 Inch Skillet, with a "10" on the handle.

!

I managed to get them for $50 total. I can't find exact matches online, but I think this is a good deal for these two. Is it?

The Flaws of Flatpak - What do you think about Flatpak Security?
  • OK, so I looked though my browser history, and here are some relevant pages I found:

    I don't remember how much I used each one, but eventually I pieced together enough information information to get the Browserpass extension working in the Google Chrome flatpak. But three of those links are KeePassXC, which should be useful for adapting this for your use.

    The main file that was having problems was the Browserpass Native Messaging Hosts file in my config directory for the Chrome flatpak, ~/.var/app/com.google.Chrome/config/google-chrome/NativeMessagingHosts/com.github.browserpass.native.json. Originally it was a symlink to a file at /usr/lib/browserpass/hosts/chromium/com.github.browserpass.native.json:

    {
        "name": "com.github.browserpass.native",
        "description": "Browserpass native component for the Chromium extension",
        "path": "/usr/bin/browserpass-linux64",
        "type": "stdio",
        "allowed_origins": [
            "chrome-extension://naepdomgkenhinolocfifgehidddafch/"
        ]
    }
    

    The call to /usr/bin/browserpass-linux64 did not see to work for me, so I ended up making a copy of the file in the NativeMessagingHosts directory and modified it to point to a script in my home mount:

    wile_e8 NativeMessagingHosts $ diff com.github.browserpass.native.json.orig com.github.browserpass.native.json
    4c4
    <     "path": "/usr/bin/browserpass-linux64",
    ---
    >     "path": "/home/wile_e8/.config/browserpass/browserpass.sh",
    
    

    I don't remember why I picked to do it inside the ~/.config directory, but it worked so I left it. And here is the script I put at ~/.config/browerpass/browserpass.sh:

    #!/bin/sh
    cd ~
    /usr/bin/flatpak-spawn --host /usr/bin/browserpass-linux64 2>/tmp/error.log
    

    I don't remember how I came up with that script, it must be somewhere in the four links at the top.

    Finally, I needed to use Flatseal to allow access to the script. In the Google Chrome settings, under "Filesystem->Other files", I added an entry saying ~/.config/browserpass:ro. Also modified from the default in Flatseal, I have "Filesystem->All user files" enabled, along with "Socket->D-Bus session bus" and "Socket->D-Bus system bus". I don't know how necessary the last three are, but I'm not messing with it now that I have it working.

    So, that's what I did to get the Browserpass extension working in the Google Chrome flatpak. You'll have to modify some things to get it working for KeePassXC, or for Firefox. But that general pattern should work.

  • The Flaws of Flatpak - What do you think about Flatpak Security?
  • Keep an eye out, I'll come back to this. It involves posting config file diffs and a script I wrote, it'll be a longer post I don't have the time to write right at this moment.

    But yes, the fact that I need to find the time to post all the changes I needed to make to get this to work is part of the problem here.

  • The Flaws of Flatpak - What do you think about Flatpak Security?
  • FWIW I figured out how to get a password manager (Browserpass, not KeePassXC) to communicate with flatpak Chrome if you want some advice on how to get it to work.

    But yes, it was way more difficult than it should have been (which is "should work out of the box, just like a regular package"). So if you're just listing some of the shortcomings of flatpak, never mind.

  • Google Wallet lets you disable animations, rolling out Photo passes
  • Wait, are photo passes really happening this time? Google has made a couple of blog posts announcing the feature, but I've been regularly checking for the last several months and haven't seen it. It was a nice feature of the original Google Wallet that was removed in one of the rebrands, I'd really like it to actually be back instead of just "coming soon" (not that soon)

    Stable Android 14 OTA is rolling out now
  • Hasn't Android had a thing for a while where it gives update priority to people who manually check for updates? Like, my phone (7a) didn't say an update was available, but then I clicked the "Check for update" button, and now it said Android 14 is available.

    So I don't think anyone who really wants the update soon needs to sideload the OTA, just check for an update and you'll probably get it.

    Alabama turning to Tyler Buchner at QB? Notre Dame transfer expected to replace Jalen Milroe vs. USF
  • Well, I don't know if Buchner is actually going to be better than Milroe. But from what I saw on Saturday, Alabama isn't going to win anything significant with Milroe under center. So maybe it's worth a shot to see if Buchner can perform against live competition.

    College Football TV Ratings: Texas-Bama and Colorado-Nebraska both draw 8.7M viewers
  • Am I crazy, or does 8.76M for Texas/Alabama seem low? I was expecting at least 10+M for a hugely hyped, prime time game between two of the biggest fan bases on the sport. Was it because it was on ESPN and not a broadcast network?

  • Can someone tell me the benefit of season tickets?
    • Back in the day, it used to be cheaper to buy season tickets than to buy tickets for every individual game. So a whole lot of if it inertia from being the standard way to go to all/most home games.
    • Knowing you have the same seats in the same location near (mostly) the same people for every game it pretty nice.
    • You can just relax with the comfort of having tickets in hand before a game instead of regularly having to go through the hassle of finding decently priced tickets before any game you want to attend.

    But yeah, the administrative need to maximize revenue in the next quarter and the enshittification of everything means these benefits are hardly worth the cost any more. Which is why we've seen lots of articles the past few years about decreasing attendance in stadiums nationwide. Surely it must be because the fans aren't supporting the teams hard enough any more!

    American Electric Car Selector
  • Thanks, that's close, and has all the filterable options I was looking for. However, it seems more tilted towards "individual cars that are for sale in your area now", while I was thinking "models that fit our criteria so we can order one for delivery in the future". It's useful for looking at options, but doesn't list things that aren't available here right now.

  • American Electric Car Selector

    We're probably going to be buying a new car in the next year or three, and I'd be interested in getting an electric vehicle if we can find one that works at a price we can afford. I haven't been super into the details of all the electric vehicles available now (and soon), mostly just scanning headlines and reading articles on tech websites that caught my attention. I was looking for a website with a filterable list of all the electric vehicles that are available, and I found the Electric Car Selector and the Electric Vehicle Database. Both of which seem to do what I want, but both seem to be Europe based, which doesn't help me a lot since I'm in the United States. Are there any similar websites with filterable lists of electric vehicles for cars available in the United States?

    Jerboa ignoring default sort for communities

    I have my default sort set to "Hot" inside lemmy.world. When I open Jerboa, it shows posts from my subscribed communities sorted by "Hot", like it's supposed to. However, whenever I open a community, it show the posts sorted by "Active", and I have to switch to "Hot". This is different from the main web site, which uses my default sort when opening a community. Changing the sort inside the app doesn't change anything - the next time I open any community, it's sorted by "Active".

    It would be nice if Jerboa was fixed this so communities were sorted by my default sort by default. I've made (simple) Android apps before, so I can try looking into it. But mostly I don't know the appropriate way to add an issue so it gets tracked and fixed eventually.

    Tips for scaling recipes?

    I have a recipe I've found and like making because the crumb regularly turns out nicely for me, but I'd like it if the final loaf was a little bit bigger. If I wanted to scale up the recipe to make a 10% bigger loaf, would it be fine to just scale up each of the ingredients by 10% and bake it a little longer? Is there anything else I need to do? Any sort of formula for estimating changes to baking time?

    How to clean up carbon build up? Does it matter?

    I was trying to apply a coat of oil to my pan after cooking when I noticed the towel catching on a whole bunch rough spots from carbon build up on the pan. So I took a chain mail scrubber to the worst parts of the pan, and managed to peel off a bunch of build up. But after a few minutes of scrubbing, there was still a lot of carbon build up on the pan (as you can see in the picture), and the remaining stuff is going to be much harder to clean off.

    So: Is there a better way to get all this stuff cleaned off of my pan other than elbow grease and time? Am I being foolish for trying to clean it off? Should I let it go and just cook?

    Sourdough Beginner - Finally a loaf I'd happily make regularly

    I finally got into the sourdough trend three years later than everyone else, after getting sick of paying $9 for a loaf I actually like from the bakery. But I was weird, I don't really like boules because I mainly use sourdough for toast and sandwiches and want loaves that provided similar size pieces that fit in my toaster. And every loaf-pan recipe I tried came out super-dense. Eventually, I figured out how to make a batard, and a recipe that didn't come out super dense, and I have something I would be content toasting for breakfast every morning.

    • Starter: I mostly followed the King Arthur Baking guide, although I modified it based on tips from the /r/sourdough wiki to include ~25% wheat flour to get it to actually rise. I could probably reduce the sizes to waste less flour, but right now I'm at the point where I don't want to mess with something that works.
    • Recipe: I mostly followed King Arthur's Naturally Leavened Sourdough Bread recipe, although I made some changes based on the high-altitude guide since my house is over 5000 ft elevation: add 1 tbsp flour, add 1 tbsp water, bake at 475°F for 35 minutes.
    • Shaping: I followed the instructions for a batard from this video for Pain De Campagne, although I gave up on trying that recipe after multiple attempts that all had huge tunnels. It seems like something is wrong with how I was proofing it, although I don't know enough to figure out how to fix it. And then I scored it cross-wise instead of length-wise, to try to get it to expand length-wise instead of expanding too wide to fit in my toaster.

    And I think it turned out well! Crumb seemed nice, no big tunnels, it fit in my toaster and tasted great with apple butter!

    !

    !

    It may not be the greatest loaf of bread in the history of the world, but I made it from scratch, and I like it.
