No fonts, no cloud

A week without the foreign internet. Our design tools live on someone else's servers. Fonts: foreign servers. Icons: foreign servers. Colour palettes: you guessed.
What I did on Monday: found an old copy of the font library on a hard drive, copied it to my phone, and sent my colleague the files by Bluetooth, like in 2008. It worked. Lesson: anything you rely on, keep a copy of in your drawer.
That is all I will say about this month.
