    Bracing for the storm:I'm staying home today and doing some home office, concentrating on documentation, answering mails, phone calls and planning next week... all the stuff that's usually gets squeezed in between real work with the children when there's usually no real office time. (To think some people to have time and to get payed to do just office work... what a marvel 😉)Schools are closed in my region today because of the weather (blizzard), that's coming and all the kids are at home now, we also decided to close down today and leave the kids I'm working with at home later as well.Wind really freshens up now, it started to snow a bit and snow flakes whirl before the windows. It seems weather forecast was pretty accurate so far.All in all, I can stay indoors, I have enough to eat, it's warm and now for some tea break. It could be worse.#weather #snow #blizzard #northern #germany #home #office

    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! 🎉#FediMeteo #HappyBirthday #Meteo #Weather #FreeBSD #snac #snac2 #OpenMeteo #Fediverse

    Featured story: Everywhere I went along a 30-mile or so stretch of the Guadalupe River, there were excavators and people digging, looking, hopeful to find the missing. The scale of the devastation, the search and recovery efforts, and the grief—all things unfathomable to me, even after I witnessed them. https://www.texasobserver.org/where-the-water-reached/ #Texas #photography #politics #USpol #news #environment #weather #ClimateChange
