LOL me too my brother. However, one thing I do use is Grocy for pantry and other inventory. Homebox seems to be in that inventory genre of apps. I’m somewhat of a prepper, but ‘prepping’ was very common in my generation along with Victory Gardens. I don’t do EOTW scenarios, but I do stock for social or political unrest and upheavals, weather related hazards or catastrophes, food shortages, etc. During the pandemic, I rarely wandered from my compound.
I have a UPC scanner that I scan all groceries and food stuffs into Grocy, and when I use the item, I scan it out. I’m the only one who is authorized to use it which gripes my lady friend when she comes to visit. LOL So, when I am doing my monthly shopping, I can pull up the app and check against the inventory to see if I need to pick up a couple 50 lb sacks of rice that are on sale.
I could see how Homebox would be useful in that you could take inventory of all your household items for perhaps insurance claims reasons. I take pictures of all such items along with their serial numbers and store them just for that purpose. I wonder if Homebox could import such data to securely store.
but it’s so portable I have no idea where I left it!
LOL I can feel your pain. I have to force myself to put the tool back in its proper place when done, or I’ll never find it again for years. Put your toys back in the toybox.
The worst case scenario is when you know you have something, you cannot find it after multiple raids, and you end up buying it again. Then of course you eventually find it during the course of doing something random.

Yup, that’s my use case. I set it up in case of theft or loss. Now I just actually need to go around and put my valuable stuff into it…
And also find my Dremel. I bought a mini cordless one that worked great, but it’s so portable I have no idea where I left it!
