I love the power of curl combined with wttr.in
$ curl wttr.in/leonsberg_suriname|lolcat
Giving this example for those of us who love to use true free services for our work / live flow
I've been using wttr for decade(s)
Read here for more examples.
For me that meant that I had to rebuild my live environment again from scratch since my main mini Pc Computing system has failed me a number of weeks ago. Since I'm quite affluent in using proxmox like environments I've taken it upon me to automate certain of these tasks so that the restoration of the Live environment has happened exponentially faster
Over here locat is crucial in the terminal arsenal of programs.
Just as the vitality of Bram Molenaar's VIM which I need to write fluently,
I use a set of vital functions that are always inserted in the sh. I always need to have lolcat along with me for the ride.
Sometimes the third Line Function is just not enough to highlight the output
In the helpful shell functions department:
(Requires bc

load() {
local load=$(uptime |sed -E "s/^.*load averages?: //; s/,.*$//")
local uname="$(uname)"
local cpus
if [[ $1 == -q ]]; then
echo "$load"
elif [[ $1 == -i ]]; then
echo "$load + 0.5" |bc -l |cut -f1 -d.
else
case "$uname" in
Linux) cpus=$(grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo);;
*BSD) cpus=$(sysctl hw.ncpu |tr -dc "0-9\n");;
*) warn "load(): assuming 1 cpu, don't know how to get the number in \"$uname\""
cpus=1;;
esac
local loadPerCPU=$(echo "scale=3; $load / $cpus" |bc -l |sed 's/^\./0./')
echo "$load ($loadPerCPU per processor ($cpus))"
fi
}

As you can see in the screen cap the project has grown beyond just a one-man show
It is vital to understand that the project would not have been scaled in this manner & at this logarithmic rate, had it not been for important partners, who due to the power of the FediVerse, were quickly introduced to the project
Did not only gave words of interest they actually contributed with giving server space to boxyBSD.
Reed the Alt text voor more information
Please read the screen cap closely and also read the Alt text & realize how much boxyBSD has blown up
600 plus VMS!!!
