Well done about the schedule, OP!

As for me, I changed my bedsheets without getting a migraine, which is a very very rare occurrence and feels amazing.

Earth is a big place with different types of climates. I can imagine some people not only want but need to warm their homes.

No problem!

I understand! I’d do the same. “What if they don’t like it and they throw it away?” Such a waste of life.

Truth is, we cannot shoulder the responsibility for the whole chain of events. Someone gives us something we don’t eat. We decide not to eat it and give it to someone else.

The rest lies in someone else’s conscience.

Finally, if I wasn’t sure they’d eat it, I’d adopt a freegan approach and eat it myself.

By the way, I recommend you edit your post to add a short comment about the not plant-based confusion. I think you are being downvoted by people not taking the time to read and engage…

People who gift me food know I do not eat animal carcasses or secretions, so I’ve never received food containing any of the two in all these years.

If it ever happened, I’d accept but also let them know not to do it next time, and explain why :)

The food would end at the office for my coworkers’ enjoyment.

… what. Maybe you mean not plant-based?

Of course! Different animists have different views, as it is not a dogmatic belief.

I myself believe not only sentient creatures possesses some kind of spiritual essence, but also plants, natural phenomena, and even some rocks and places.

My instinct is to respect nature not only because I am part of it, but also because I am interacting with other creatures and they have as much a right to life as I do.

Therefore, a product should never be treated as scrap or useless remains, but honoured and valued until that object cannot be used anymore.

This is something I’ve reflected upon in the last few months due to being attacked for it by someone close.

I am an animist, so my approach to this is very much affected by my beliefs.

I keep my clothes and shoes made with materials of animal origin. I do not throw or give them away, as that would be a disrespect to the life that was taken, and an uncertainty about what consideration the next person would have for that very life.

I myself mend and take good care of my things, making sure I extend their life for as long as I can. It is my responsibility to make sure no more is taken from nature than it is absolutely necessary.

Now, if I must buy something, I go second hand first. And I don’t stay away from leather or wool or other animal products due to the above: if I take one with me, I will care for it as well as I can for as long as possible, ensuring the life taken will be honoured and not simply turn into soil-poisoning waste.

It is when buying new is unavoidable that I hit a wall. I’ve had very bad experiences with plastic shoes. I walk a lot, and they ones I’ve tried have made me develop some nasty foot smell I’d rather avoid for the rest of my life… Other times, the shoes simply broke so fast I had to buy new shoes after barely a year. Both my budget and options are limited, so I am stuck on what to do when the inevitable happens and I need new boots.

Anyway, thank you for asking this! It has been useful to write it down – and not sure why you got downvoted…

I tend to buy more than I should, so I do patties or savoury pancakes.

I don’t have a specific recipe. I just search for one every time like a savage haha

I really want that community to be active!

… I also wanted to answer your question but I cannot remember a single humorous road trip moment.

Thank you both – and apologies. I feel I’m thick as porridge with this topic. I bought my Hassio Yellow months ago and I keep on pushing this because it is so daunting.

I finally understand the difference between what I have (connecting my device to a VPN service) and what I need (setting up a server so I can connect to my device) – so I can call myself wiser than yesterday!

ExpressVPN offers port forwarding and I’ve read about it on the Hassio website, but I am not sure that’d be the way to go for someone who baaarely knows what they are doing.

Ah. Shit (pardon my French). I understand.

I got a VPN router a while ago, and all my connections at home go through it (console, Hassio, laptop, etc.). This way I get to choose individual locations for each device.

I’m using ExpressVPN, by the way.

Would this be a first step for what you explain?

Look at ‘em. So precious 🥺

I see! I am not the owner of the license so I “piggy backed” without reading much about the options it offers.

I’ll read about it and try to set it up.

Thank you for taking the time to teach me about this!

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll check it out.

And they say money doesn’t bring happiness 😅 I wish I could…!

Sorry, I am not sure of how to answer your question…

I am using VPN to browse internet in general. If I try to access the (iOS) Hassio app without being connected to the same WiFi as my Hassio, I cannot do anything. It doesn’t even load. Should this be different?

✨Fashionably late✨

As far as I know, Meta has been demanding that info for a long while.

They want to make money with your data. No surprises here.
