Thanks that looks like the most attainable way for now. But I would like to have more data in there, such as season temperature trend, 10th and 90th percentile historical values and min/max temperature records, to give context to the data. Also have precipitation. Be able to zoom in and out of the data to get more find grain minute-by-minute, or see the last 5 years at once, and be able to move the “X” position in time, so that I could watch the data, at the minute level, but from 4 years ago. Also I would hope to see the 7 day temperature prediction line

Like this, where the yellow line represents “now” and to the right is predictions

This looks good, although I’m not a fan that it says “non-commercial use” To me that means, we reserve the right to alter the deal. Also it seems to get it’s data from a private company, rather than my local government weather office and their public API, whatever it might be ?

Also, this says it is an API. So would I need to code up an entire web front end to display the data like I would like … ?

I presume, there is some application which can display data of this API ? Are any, like the style I am after ?

I see that it has the historical data so that’s great, maybe I could have the min/maximum recorded temperatures as part of my single temperature view thing, at least, it could do it !

I see there is a 10000 API request limit, so I don’t know if that’s going to work at all. If I just scroll back in time, I imagine it would bust this 10000 request cap very quickly ?

But that does sound like the most promising meteo self-hosted option.

It’s kind of weird we’ve got maps, mail, notes but not weather ?

There are so many people making their own weather stations but it seems here there has not really been someone self-hosting their own weather dashboard !

Maybe it’s a new frontier of selfhosting !

Well they’d have to cut c-suite and shareholder’s cut because everything else that could be squeezed out has already been squeezed out, so the c-suite and shareholder will convert their money into the political power it takes to just block out the competition.

The income stream would disappear, their operations would collapse and that would just be the end. There would not be another manufacturer that would flourish in the void left behind. Without the institutional know how and the existing structure, supply chain the current car manufacturing industry would never be able to restart if it ever stopped.

The social darwinism of the globalist free market is meant for crushing the spirit and bargaining power of individual workers, they are replaceable, disposable, interchangeable. General Motors and Ford aren’t.

Yes grafana does seem like a good framework for building such a thing. But has anyone done it ? It is quite a lot to learn so I’m curious to see if someone has made one of these self-hosted meteo application already.

Ok, I had a look at windy, but it doesn’t seem possible to self-host Their github repo has a lot of stuff, but no web frontend https://github.com/orgs/windycom/

As for meteo.pl, they seem to use rrdtool to generate the graph, but like windy, they graphs are static, no scrolling or putting cursor on the graph to get exact values. Also, meteo.pl doesn’t seem to have any software repository ? It is just a private commercial website ? There doesn’t seem to be something to self-host ?

Yes, that’s starting to look like it. Does it let you zoom out to the whole year without a page load ?

Also, does it work without a local sensor ?

To be clear, I mean something with a user interface that combines multiple aspects of the weather and lets you change the date range by scrolling.

I have not found one of those.

I"m seeing these options

But it’s many many clicks before you see your data.

And then the data looks like this

Static, non-interactive, no data context

Really complex and unintuitive interface that give you data, one static plot at a time

All firefox really needed to be once google took over everything, was to be a viable alternative and find a way to metabolize all this cash in a way that doesn’t damage google’s own cash machine or threaten it’s actual dominance.

For google the pitance they give firefox is a very cheap insurance policy against against anti-trust legislation. Just like Intel with AMD, this shows how toothless the liberal anti-trust legislation are, even if they were really being enforced, they cannot handle a token 2nd player. It cannot handle controlled opposition if it’s credible and believable. So an actual thriving ecosystem doesn’t need to exist, we just get duopolies instead of monopolies but in practices we get ducked up the cloaca just the same.

I’m specifically aiming at the “a culture that…” bit.

That the same logic with different garbs. It doesn’t become ok because it’s a “culture wink wink”.

It’s the same weapon used the same way with a tiny lil’ tweak to try dodge criticism.

This is transparent and should not be fooling anyone.

“comes from a culture that lies about everything”

What do you think he meant by that ?

How the logic of his statement works seems very plain to me, we’ve seen that a million times.

With nothing else but the blank walls and the cruel clock now students have nowhere else to turn to to pass the time but listening to teacher blab his time-filling spiel. If they’re very lucky, the students might learn a single thing that matters before days end, but of course that remains exceedingly unlikely.

It’s about creating the conditions for money later

Yes, VLAN is an IT convenience feature, you don’t need it just because it is a feature of the more expensive hardware.

Instead just establish separate L2s and operate proper L3 firewalls between them. For IoT devices, any kind of reliable potato will do just fine.

It’s San Francisco’s instruction manual.

Money has no intrinsic value, it’s a dynamic relation between all other humans who would accept it. Even a gold bar will vary in what it can really buy based on the health of the society around you. And that’s just transaction, which is not where wealth is. Land and physical property, and the ability to leverage their use is the mediator of wealth. The people without, will never ever be on a level playing field. How can you be born owing your life to infinite rent and interest and think you’re on a level playing field ? You reach for this utopia, thinking this time you’ll be the one collecting ? This time you can be the landlord without having to pay taxes. But at the end of the day, if the people around you are miserable, are you better off ?

And all of that is assuming it even would work as advertised, which it won’t, nobody is waiting 10 minute to clear a payment.

This technology is a scam sold by the people trying to shit-up everything so that they can get their best pick out of the rubble.

Can you DRM a crawl ?

They want to be regulated so they can finally have their mote. Cutting out the states’ power does mean they will only have to buy one group of politicians in Washington and those are some relatively cheap Hoes
