If I lose this key on a drunken night out, am I totally screwed accessing my previously-enabled apps?

Depends. Most U2F-enabled sites and services require you to both register a U2F device and a TOTP time-based one time password together, so even if you loose your Yubikey you still have your smartphone or at least your backup codes (somewhere at home in a safe hopefully). As for the PGP functionality - if you created your keys on yubikey and didn't export/backup them anywhere, then yes, but gpg and other software packages usually suggest doing a backup or do it automatically, so you should also be safe.

Can it be used for Hotmail?

Not yet, but there are plans to introduce it since there's a whole lot of users requesting it.

Is the nfc compatible with htc one m9?

as long as it has nfc, then yes

Can you store ssh private keys on it for accessing remote services?

You can store keys, but not without allowing them to be read under normal operations, just like passphrases as sleeping_scorpion said, i.e., just files. The NEO (as opposed to other variants) can act as a smart card. This will store certificates that are not exposed during authentication. But these are different from ssh keys.
