+====== Use TouchID for sudo ======
+Based on https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/306324/21948
+  * Prompts for TouchID when working locally, asks for password otherwise (e.g. SSH)
+Add ''auth sufficient pam_tid.so'' to ''/etc/pam.d/sudo'', e.g.:
+<code>
+# sudo: auth account password session
+auth       sufficient     pam_tid.so
+auth       sufficient     pam_smartcard.so
+auth       required       pam_opendirectory.so
+account    required       pam_permit.so
+password   required       pam_deny.so
+session    required       pam_permit.so
+</code>
+These appear to be tried in the order listed, and if one aborts (e.g. press ESC for TouchID) the next is tried (i.e. the usual terminal password prompt)
+====== Automatic fan control when on AC power to avoid sweaty palms ======
+https://github.com/hholtmann/smcFanControl can do this, and is as easy to install as:
+  brew cask install smcfancontrol
