I haven't left the house in months.
Sorry, I forgot about this thread, but I was reminded today when I saw the new bug. The issue that originally affected me was https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/103208. It broke Xbee users, so not everyone. My Zigbee integrations didn't work after the update so I had to roll back to a backup for my first time with HA. A patch was developed, but it didn't get integrated into any of the 2023.11.x releases, which I found kind of frustrating but I figured I'd wait it out and eventually there would be a version that works again.
Fortunately I held off on 2023.12, because according to https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/105344 a bunch of people are having problems with this release too.
The last update broke zigbee for a month, so forgive me if I don’t jump on this bandwagon.
That’s how it’s made. They melt cheese with emulsifying salts, squirt it into a plastic envelope, and it cools into the shape of the wrapper.
My town doesn’t allow polymeric sand so I have to use regular masonry sand. It hasn’t affected the stability of the pavers, but pulling weeds all summer is kind of annoying.
Maybe you use plain sand now and come back and do it when it’s warm.
This will not be a popular thing to say in Lemmy, but I don’t think self hosting those things is going to reduce your headaches. I have worked in IT all my life, and I have lots of experience running services of all kinds, including my self-hosted home stuff. Nowadays, I am very mindful of the cost in time and hassle to DIY rather than let someone else handle it. When it comes to calendars, everything I see has an option to integrate with Google or Outlook, so I can’t imagine how sharing and syncing are going to be better if you move to some obscure open source thing. I fought that exact battle for an entire decade - you don’t want to get me started talking about CalDAV - and my life got so much easier when I gave up and moved my stuff to a standard provider.
I was around pre-Internet, and it wasn't any better. In fact, this "virtual world" has been a huge positive for me and has given me many opportunities to expand my social group and have a more fulfilling life. I don't see the value in fetishizing disconnection.

Kind of a mix of well known science and tech stuff, and some out there things.
I flipped through and grabbed a few from different genres:

- Risky or Not?
- Penn’s Sunday School
- This Podcast Will Kill You
- Reconcilable Differences
