ppg.report VS hacker-scripts

Thank you u/aeharding !!! I use ppg.report regularly -- you can Sponsor/support Alexander and his hard work here: https://github.com/sponsors/aeharding

https://ppg.report

Shows a nicely formatted weather report for flying my paramotor, pulling data in from many different sources :-)

Why use it when you have Windy.com and Windy.app and ppg.report and aviationweather.gov ?

Yep I like ppg.report for quick no fluff wind speeds at different altitudes. When I just want to basics standing in the field or driving to an LZ, Windy is for large screen analyses at home days beforehand.

PPG.report (web) - I have it as an Icon on my iPhone for quick access to the NOAA GFS model data, which gives you 24 hours of wind predictions at different altitudes. It is not always accurate, but it IS predicting a solid 20 km square. I prefer this now over RyanCarlton.com because there are weather forecasts and airspace restrictions built in. It's very pretty too! I think Alexander Harding lurks in here. You can see and view the code for the website too. You can donate to Alexander's work on Github as well.

So excited for colors outside of sRGB! I make good use of display-p3, currently only supported in Safari, on https://ppg.report.

Flying my paramotor is one of the things I love to do in my free time, and this project (weather report for paramotor pilots) is the result of that!

Also open source https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report

I like ppg.report, but I always thought it was just a re-skined version of wind.ppgzone.com

https://ppg.report/ and RyanCarlton.com show you CAPE and CIN.

It only works if your location is within 30 miles of an airport. In which case you will see a little widget in the header, as seen here: https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report/releases/tag/v2.1.0

India has hundreds of millions of English speakers, is it a stellar IT nation? It can only boast a dozen puppet top execs of Indian origins in US megacorps like Microsoft and Google. And a few hundred thousands of office drones on H-1B visas. Half of them probably already got used as ass wipes and fired during the post-pandemic mass layoffs. Are there so many reasonably known Indian programmers? If the ones working in IT companies may not be known due to NDAs and code being proprietary, they should have as many known contributors to free software. Where are they? Do you know many? I know ONLY ONE. All India is known for are mean memes like the one about Kumar the proverbial asshole. You can read more about it here if you're not familiar https://github.com/NARKOZ/hacker-scripts

This story comes to mind. It could very well be made up, but someone else made those scripts inspired by the story.

kumar-asshole.sh

This is the script used to talk to the coffee machine:

I wonder how many other devices talk telnet and have a weak password. Would be cool to have a database of such models.

This reminded me of this internet folklore: https://www.jitbit.com/alexblog/249-now-thats-what-i-call-a-...

There is also a recreation of the scripts at https://github.com/NARKOZ/hacker-scripts

This is it, not sure if it's the original

nunca te olvides de esto...
