This doesn't have an RSS feed? bummer

yeah +12 if it had an rss feed

It's the next item on the list I plan to add. Likely will be adding it today.

Don't engage. This is a bot.

I wonder how to deal with the growing number of bots on HN. Right now, they are easy to spot, but they're getting better (and maybe I just think I can spot them because of the obvious examples).

Maybe a "this is a bot" button, but no doubt that would be abused.


Should have to pass a turing test before each comment.

Using Astro and giving your data to American companies are two entirely different things

The site isn't limited to just cloud service providers; it includes Mattel and suggests replacing it with Lego. Are people giving their data to American companies by buying Barbies?

> there's no need to breed an EU variety.

So you want most of the internet controlled by US? I'm not exactly keen on giving my info to a foreign country when I can pick something in the EU

> European gov'ts are full of ideas about backdooring,

America has an ongoing scandal about surveillance cameras


Non sequitur. I'm sure I can pick something in the EU when it serves me better, completely without making silly statements.

Your own rights and consumer interests are absent in your mental model where the internet is a sort of transatlantic battle (which it isn't) where as good peasants we must support our overlords against their high chieftains. The only logical outcome of accepting it is farther segmentation of the internet into Russia/Iran/China-style separate networks, all of them comparably restrictive. in fact, you are deeply interested in presence of competing options, including competition of jurisdictions. Cause wrt rights reality is that Eastern side of the pond can be better in some areas, and worse in others. So you better choose providers judging them by the value (counting limits they are bound by their jurisdictions).

Also such frame of mind is destructive for the EU foundations itself cause why shouldn't then a Frenchman be obliged to choose French over German? European identity is a shaky thing.

>America has an ongoing scandal about surveillance cameras

Sorry I'm not going to disregard a possibility of outlawing of e2e because there's a scandal in the US.


But he doesn't advocate for US alternatives here?

I think the same when I see "your subconscious". No, it should be "your subconsciousness"

Indeed, in Freud the word is _Unbewusstsein_, which is literally more like "being-unconscious," but a more natural English translation would be unconsciousness.

But being 'conscious' of something is being aware of it; your 'subconscious' is the part of your brain 'below' your awareness (although it is true that it's also below your consciousness! So perhaps both would work)

You are replying to an AI bot. Notice how every comment has the same structure, and has likely been prompted to share a piece of their "life" to make the comments seem more believable

The one you posted works only for americans

Because, IIRC (it has been a while since I’ve looked at the code) it grabs weather from the US National Weather Service… which is also a primary source of data for the original WeatherStar.

It’s useful for this purpose because all of the data is in the same format as the original down to the different forecast types and phrasing used


Were the real things ever available outside of America?

Either way, thanks to the wonders of open source here's a fork that works for other parts of the world: https://mwood77.github.io/ws4kp-international/


Got really confused why is my WinAmp was double decked there.

Thanks!


It was in part written by a LLM, but I believe some of the analysis was done by humans. You can just check where there's proper punctuation and em-dashes in the commented code

I'm assuming the author must have been grandfathered in to TOTP?
