  • Sounds like you have people you can call? If so, ask someone to go do something physical together where conversation doesn’t have to be center-stage, like hiking. If you live in a place where there’s good hiking spots with challenging terrain, such as steep hills (hopefully accompanied by beautiful views), you might be too out of breath for the absence of conversation to be unnatural.






  • I run Movary on my NAS in a docker container so that my partner has a place to add to our watch-list.

    I also run a personal kbase that I built on top of Docbase and Markdown files.

    And I recently started using HTTP2Shell to throw commands at a local networked device. This is useful to me personally, maybe not for others, because I’ve written my own automations.

    I recently considered adding Home Assistant, but it doesn’t look like it’s gonna happen because we have lamps that don’t remain in an “on” state when unplugged; any devices I might buy to add wifi to them wouldn’t actually turn them on remotely as a result. Shame cause there’s one that’s pretty necessary at night that’s between a wall and a sofa that’s pushed back against it because that’s just the layout of the room. I don’t mind manually controlling the others, but that was the one that would have been nice to trigger from my phone. Our thermostat and robot vacuum would have been on the same system, but they already have dedicated apps anyway.

    You’re only limited by your imagination and curiosity (and wallet).
