@juliank Completely forgot my password in the past, was saved by having fingerprint unlock on my password db (I know, shame on me).

Made me realize that not only do I need to backup my stuff, I also need to work out a setup to backup what's in my head.

Secret sharing of course, but need to work out who to hand the USB sticks to, very socially complicated very quick!

(And also need to deal with possibility of USBs failing over time etc, which will annoy the people I give the sticks to as well when I want to check the sticks are still valid)

@esm @mtr @ipg I got sick and tired of needing to load Worms Armageddon to use IRC, so I switched over to Uplink, but needing to recompile the game to switch servers also started getting on my nerves.

@paulrosen For integer division, can't always be sure that the result doesn't need rounding, so its somewhat hinting that you should use something that provides the right rounding method for the work you are doing (rounding up or down to a specific number, rounding certain transactions in certain directions, etc)

And then additionally needing to keep track of the decimal position too. It becomes complicated and deserving of a library of functions and wrappers.

from what I can tell:

```
@dataclass
class StoresDouble:
original_value: InitVar[int]
value: int = field(init=false)
def __post_init__(self, original_value):
self.value = 2 * original_value
```
