there are probably better tools, but I have been using it for ages.
For reminders you can use various categories to show graphically, popups

"remind" is the appropriate tool.
It does NOT rely on anything other than computer being turned on.

Yes, several, but I'll bet you don't want to use either. Nevertheless, I'll
