    Exactly one year ago, on 30th December 2024, I laid the foundation of FediMeteo.I took a VM, installed FreeBSD, and set up the first jail to support Italy. The goal was to create a tool for my own use, support a few countries, and announce it.Unexpectedly, the enthusiasm was incredible. That pushed me to keep going, support more countries and cities, and turn it into what it is today.FediMeteo now supports 38 countries and 2,937 cities, with more than 7,700 followers in the Fediverse alone, not counting the many people who follow via RSS feeds or visit the web pages.If you are curious to read the story and some technical details, you can find it here:https://it-notes.dragas.net/2025/02/26/fedimeteo-how-a-tiny-freebsd-vps-became-a-global-weather-service-for-thousands/Today is also Tuesday, a #ThankYouTuesday, so I want to say thanks to:OpenMeteo - @openmeteo@fosstodon.org - for providing accurate, high quality data, without which FediMeteo would be far less useful@grunfink@comam.es - creator of snac, who made all of this possible using very few resources, on a 4 euro per month VMFreeBSD, which thanks to the efficiency of the OS and its jail implementation made it possible to run this service in a stable and efficient way with minimal effortFediFollows - @FediFollows@social.growyourown.services - that periodically spreads the word about cities, countries, and the enthusiasm around the projectAll of you, who suggested, encouraged, corrected, and celebrated this projectAnd forward toward supporting more countries and other interesting features already in the works.Happy birthday, FediMeteo! ๐ŸŽ‰#FediMeteo #HappyBirthday #Meteo #Weather #FreeBSD #snac #snac2 #OpenMeteo #Fediverse

    Hey #FreeBSD friends: Is there some kind of severe rate/connection throttling in base sshd? I was able to connect once and then since then, it hangs. If I telnet to port 22 I do get a banner but the key exchange just hangs and I get a connection reset after a while.Am I better off disabling the base sshd and install openssh server?

    FreeBSD: pkgbase: major upgrades<https://gist.github.com/grahamperrin/a58edbb8587af513a154ac01d922f611#file-pkgbase-major-upgrade-md-readme>โ€• a rough guide, for alpha testing on AMD64.From <https://redd.it/1nlo8lp>: โฎ An obvious response to the roughness: it's more complicated than legacy freebsd-update(8) (for FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE). True; this is for alpha testing.Please read the preamble before anything else. If you have any question, please don't hesitate to ask. โฏ#FreeBSD #pkg #pkgbase #alpha
