I'm sorry to say I don't. :/ You can grab dev boards off aliexpress for cheap, and they're really easy to play with. Just connect the to your PC via USB to load your initial ESPHome script, and they spring to life. From there you can do basic testing, since they'll get power from the USB. It's just a matter of what you decide you want to hook up to them after that. I assume you're looking for like a hobby kit, like you can get for arduino boards? Something that comes with a bunch of LEDs and I2C components you can fiddle with? Unfortunately I don't know of any that come with ESP32 dev boards, but I'll admit I've not looked. Sorry.
When you put mail in the box, unless it's a REALLY small bit of mail it'll land so it obscures at least one of the proximity sensors. This then sets the 'got mail' statue to 'on' in Home Assistant. From there, I have HA set up to send me notifications to go and check the mail.
Before you say so, yes this was a lot of work for something so trivial, but it was fun. Plus I actually get so little physical mail that I can forget to check the mailbox for weeks at a time. Which would be very bad if I got some actually important mail. And actually, that exact thing happened just days after I finished installing the thing. So it has already potentially saved me from a fine.
Okay so that is an issue with the ESP32, sure. There are a lot of variants.
So from what I can tell, the ESP32 is the SoC chip and what you usually get is a dev board which has that plus a bunch of power regulation bits, a USB connector and UART so you can easily program it, etc. That part varies mostly by pinout. I.e. Same features, different pin location.
There are also variants of the chip, but those are usually more costly and will be named things like ESP32-S2.
Every one I've seen can run off 5v or 3.3v and uses the latter for logic, so if you got yourself an arduino kit and then just bought an ESP32 dev board it would almost certainly work with whatever is in the kit. Both are microcontrollers, not microprocessors, so they tend not to have OSes or screens.
No problem. The one I used is an ESP32 DevKitC, and you can find info about it on Espressif's site, or just google the pinout diagram. For basic tasks it should be all you need since it has lots of binary pins, two ADC channels, two DAC channels, realtime clock, special pins for waking it from deep sleep, two I2C, etc. Though if you want to do video input you probably want something else, I'm learning.
Anyway, if you can spare the money to get one just to toy with I'd definitely recommend it.
The article says it works by messaging systemd to run the process as the given user, rather than being a SUID binary. So it wouldn't work without systemd.
"Buying American" would be exporting money for me, and there's no domestic car manufacturing anymore. So I'm sending money overseas no matter what I buy, and it's probably all made in China anyway… :P

GOG doesn't contribute to Proton AFAIK, and doesn't offer amazing QOL stuff like Steam Input. But what you buy from them is yours forever, assuming you sensibly back it up yourself. So "best we got" is debatable depending on what you value.
Ah, I see. That's a fair point, and yeah I do worry about GOG's potential for enshitification. But knowing at least my past purchases will not become shit is some small comfort.
Honestly unshocking. Eldritch horrors and fey are basically the same thing anyway; a powerful entity with alien intentions and motivations, not good or evil particularly, just unknowable.
I know vlans is the answer, but I don't know how to set it up. I really need to do this with my own network some day. There must be an OPNsense guide for this, I know it…
I'm still using Duplicity. It's a command line program, so point #1 is handled by systemd timers, but it does the rest for me. With a udev rule and systemd automount, I even have it so I can swap out the backup drive and take it off-site occasionally.
You guys absolutely need healthcare, and I don't want to diminish that, but at the same time this is potentially a big deal as it impacts right-to-repair, sustainability, etc.
I've installed gentoo but there seems like there's so many sacrifices. I love that it's all open source, but I really don't mind closed source software now and then, because after all I would be using it to play closed source games. The biggest compromise I've observed is the very long build times. I have a lukewarm cpu(i3...
Gentoo is a great learning tool for linux. It's also got a great package manager and lets you truly customise the system to your liking, which is why I stuck around.
Of course I hear you can do the latter thing with Arch, but I don't know Arch, so…
I tried transferring a ublue based install to another drive recently. Didn't go well. And I wasn't really able to find any info on how to do such a simple maintenance task as fix the bootloader in their weird way of doing things. :/
Okay, let me start by saying that I really do love Home Assistant. I believe that it is a fantastic piece of software, with very dedicated developers that are far more talented than I. Although, that being said, I strongly disagree with a number of their design choices....
Women are gonna be sexualised regardless, I suspect. Wherever the line is drawn, give it a generation or two and men and WLWs will be all about women wearing one step below that line.
For better and worse, most people don't care what's under the hood. They care about the surface features. I.e. Chrome already has their bookmarks, the buttons are all in the same place, etc.
You and I know there's little difference but end users don't want to change, even if it's to something that would benefit them in the long run (i.e. Firefox)

I dunno what you guys are doing that makes your nextcloud die without touching it. Mine runs happily until I decide to update it, and that usually goes fine, too. I don’t use docker for it, tho.
You might want to consider looking into Home Assistant. It can’t do the voice assistant part (yet?) but if you get the right smart devices to go with it, you can be reasonably safe from the usual smart home product stopping working because the maker got bored BS.
This delay isn’t exclusive to Firefox, it’s in any browser where a user has enabled adblockers including in Chrome. Disable the adblocker and this delay magically go away. This was done on purpose.
Keepass fIle in my own nextcloud instances, synced to my phone so I can also use keepass2android. This way if something happens I at least have another copy of it, beyond my backup system.
You should swap to something else. Anything else, tho ideally something that actually respects your privacy like Firefox. If more people did, maybe WEI would not be on the horizon.

I just run HAOS on the hardware, yeah. Have considered making it a container on my main home server, but I have the RPi and I just want my home assistant to work. My home server is more of a tinker project so it’s nice to keep them separate.
