An excellent client and backgammon experience.

Thanks Trevor for documenting your path, it is quite useful to us all who might want in the future to write an open source multiplayer game.

This year was particularly cold, which was good for the health of the glacier. But alas yes, there are marks where ice started in past decades/centuries, and it is falling back inexorably…

Comment: I travel light, but this time I overpacked (almost filled my 30l for a one-nighter). I need to consider options next time!

Nope, I use Mega

a long todo.txt, If I knew how to use emacs I would probably try orgmode, but I don't.

I backup stuff both on a MicroSD and on web storage with duplicity. Hopefully that is enough!

passwords.txt on a full-disk encryption HDD.

If you are comfortable with the command line hledger is a great program which has good tools for importing .csv files from banks and other financial companies.

Excellent writeup!

I had the pleasure to try the client last week and it felt clean and responsive!

Nope! Little known to people, you just need to locally clone your repository with --bare and upload that. You will see you can clone it even if you don't have a git server!

It is a very slick, minimalist solution.

I hope to come off as harsh, but documentation quality is an important factor for both discoverability and adoption.

At least there are instructions — which I haven’t tried yet — on how to build the app.
