I’m a huge weather nerd and found this website while looking for new weather sites. I’ve kinda fallen in love with the windows 98 y2k aesthetic and all the cat gifs lol

Also doesn’t disappoint with the weather data but some parts of it are a bit slow to load

    Loading bars that actually load useful stuff like spy satellites instead of tracker scripts? Sign me up! But don’t make me sign up for an account!

    This is amazing. I would really think this was from decades ago if it weren’t for the actual working weather data and the “Hey Siri” further down

        A software language from the 1970s, that is kept alive by government contracts and legacy systems that cannot be replaced, because they are incompatible with modern data formats. The server software has a web extension, which makes it as pleasant to use as classic ASP in the 1990s, just without all the good documentation and code examples…

        9 out of 10 code completions from GitHub copilot are wrong in this language, ChatGPT is not better either. The official VS Code extension for this language complains about errors every time you try to use modern JavaScript language constructs. It breaks basic browser controls such as bookmarks or back buttons, because the session Id is submitted as part of the url. Clicking a bookmarked page will give you an error Message, but won’t take you to a login prompt or even remember where you wanted to go…
