- Installed ChromeOS Flex on my old laptop from 2012 - it seems to be working quite well. Good job Google!
- I have moved 3 Android apps from my older PC to the current one and published them on github:
- ShieldsAndLives - a mini game to help my son learn times table.
- weather_nz - a small and fast app to display metservice weather forecast for Wellington
- AddAlarmsAndroid - use this app to set many alarms at once - this app just issues commands in bulk to set alarms in your default Android clock.
- Set up Immich on my spare laptop.
