Hello, friends! I'm thrilled to announce that The Homelab Almanac, v3.0 has officially launched! There is a ton of new stuff in this version, including:
And lots more. Now, with all this addition, plus the work to make it, I've had to increase the price to $29.99 USD. I know that's a lot. But for what THA is, I still think it's fair. But I'm also running a sale right now. Code OMGVERSIONTHREE gets you 50% off until the end of June.
And of course, if you've already purchased THA, you just got access to the new version. Thanks for being an early supporter!
I hope you love this new version of the book. I'm really happy with how it turned out.
And seriously: thank you to everyone who's supported @thetaggartinstitute over the years, and especially the folks who have purchased and enjoyed The Homelab Almanac. I had no idea what I was getting myself into writing this book, but it's been lovely to see folks build community around it.

Finding Joy in Dieting: My Journey to Sustainable Weight Loss and Wellness
What if the secret to sustainable weight loss isn't found in rigid meal plans or punishing restrictions, but in a flexible framework designed to adapt to life's inevitable curveballs?
After experimenting with over 30 different diets throughout my life, I've discovered something revolutionary in its simplicity: diets fail when they demand perfection. In this eye-opening episode, I share my journey from 550 pounds to the 230s and reveal the mindset shift that finally made sustainable weight loss possible.
The breakthrough came when I made a powerful decision: everything in my life, including the food I eat, must bring joy. This meant no more choking down bland "diet foods" or denying myself simple pleasures. Instead, I created a flexible weekly framework that combines the most effective elements from various nutritional approaches—incorporating fasting, micro-fasting, keto principles, and modified zone eating depending on what my body needs each day.
My approach isn't about willpower or discipline—it's about forgiveness and adaptability. I explain how I rotate through different nutritional strategies throughout the week, starting with more restrictive days early in the week and building in flexibility for weekends and social events. This rotation has allowed me to lose weight steadily while still participating fully in life's pleasures.
Whether you're struggling with plateaus (like my current one), trying to overcome rigid thinking about food, or simply tired of diets that collapse the moment life gets complicated, this framework offers a refreshing alternative. Join me as I break down exactly how I structure my week, handle cravings, and maintain consistency without demanding perfection.

FediCon - Fediverse Conference, August 1st & 2nd in Vancouver
What if the Fediverse met... in real life?
Before I log off here for a few hours, I want to share this #GoodNews story. It's about the #LifeCycles #community #SeedsLibrary that I'm involved with & been posting about recently.
Learn more about our #seeds sharing & local #FoodSecurity efforts around #VictoriaBC #Saanich areas on #VancouverIsland 👩🌾👨🌾
"Public can soon check out free seeds at downtown Victoria library.
LifeCycles revamps its seed library now, just in time for planting 2026.
The executive director for the Victoria #nonprofit LifeCycles Project is spearheading a refresh on its seed library with a goal to create open access where people can pick up all the resources they need from the library – including seeds.
Saving, sharing and sowing seeds has been a LifeCycles goal since the 1990s with a variety of projects.:
