@BreadMilkButter @videodante oh yeah my parents’ neighbour would routinely mow his lawn at like 7am on a weekend.
@oolongstains @bigzaphod yeah it just makes the whole game feel kind of chaotic with the constant context switch between building and shooting.
Nothing feels better than seeing automated backups working properly.
I've probably got to find a new (S)FTP/S3/etc. app now that Transmit for iOS is in maintanence mode, but it's still working for me right now, and so much better than anything else on iOS that I'm going to try and stick with it as long as I can
Also I did most of that work from an iPad which was kind of neat. Turns out a good shell gets you a long way and http://www.blink.sh is a fantastic little app.
Mosh for iOS, Best SSH Client - Blink Shell for iOS

Blink Shell is a professional, desktop grade terminal for iOS. With Mosh & SSH clients for iOS, lightning fast and fully customizable. The best terminal for iOS.

After being too busy / tired to work on my Masto instance for a while, I've this evening moved it over to a new server, set up regular backups, regular SSL cert renewal etc. to (hopefully) be able to let it run mostly unattended
Looks my SSL certs weren’t auto-renewing oops.
I loaded up Dragon Quest XI and watched the opening cinematic before I had to leave for work. It’s so beautiful and I’m so excited for that game ah man.

It’s nice to have side projects where you can just spend hours upon hours building nice abstractions, getting the architecture right, and taking the time to build everything just right.

It’s a terrible way to actually ship anything, but my goal with side projects usually isn’t to build a Product, but to learn new skills and try out ideas that just aren’t practical in most real-world projects.
