Hold on, let me check the weather.
Huh…
What? What’s it say?
It says it’s going to be a high of 66, a low of 38, and cloudy with a chance of Linux in the air. That can’t right…
No, that sounds right. It’s been Linuxing all week.
What…
From the point of view from BSD.cafe I assume Linuxing weather is bad, right?
Linux -> penguins -> cold -> snow
Makes sense.
A high of 66 though definitely sounds like an issue!
Year of the Linux storm.
@vsis But how do I get Munich, Germany added? Someone make that happen! 😄
Does it work with lemmy? Would be nice if the cities were shown as lemmy communities
Probably not —
You can follow FediMeteo directly in the Fediverse (on Mastodon and compatible platforms)
AFAIK the Lemmy/Mastodon compatibility isn’t great as they use activitypub for different purposes.
Besides, what would be the point of posting weather reports on Lemmy? So you can discuss their accuracy?
Nah, so you can follow them
But… Lemmy isn’t for following accounts. That’s a microblog feature. Maybe follow them on Mastodon or similar network?
FediMeteo is dedicated to my grandfather, who every evening would give me the weather forecast based on TV, radio, and his personal experience. He would convince me that the weather would be bad, so he had an excuse to accompany me to school instead of me going alone.
That’s a lovely anecdote, but also an argument against keeping up with weather prognoses — if you’ve already decided your preferred outcome based on your plans and desires for the next day 🙂
That’s a really cool use for snac! It’s perfect for something so straightforward and uses so little resources that I would imagine if you eventually have the entire planets weather forecasts being published it would still only use a tiny amount of bandwidth and power!
@gashead76 @vsis Yes, snac is perfect for this purpose. The choice was quite straightforward. The load average is ridiculously low — all the instances, Nginx, etc., are using only 154 MB of RAM (including the FreeBSD kernel and tasks). snac is an amazing tool.
I though the same. This is a cool example of “public service” via snac.
Currently supported countries include:
Austria, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands – with many more regions coming soon!Bro. Harsh.
