One of these things is not like the others…

I’m not done missing Taiwan yet. Just the other day I checked the weather there, as I’m back in frigid central Pennsylvania, and was met with a beautiful cross-section of climates of my loved ones.

Wicked differences, no?

I realize now that I somehow failed to notice that Philadelphia was in Fahrenheit, while all the others showed Celsius, but the important thing is that Taipei and Munich are 17 °C and -17 °C, respectively. Isn’t that wild?

And for the record, I did not boot into OS X specifically to snap a screenshot of pretty weather widgets. I was actually there to fsck a troublesome HFS+ drive which for some reason refuses to respond to the fsck.hfsplus packages I currently have configured in Linux.

    Redesign, I see? Still liking the Hemingway, apparently.

  2. What interface is this? It looks iPhone/Apple-like.
    Celsius ftw.

    Hey maybe you missed this too but I think that says Munich is negative 17 degrees brrrr….

    Honestly I just inadvertently nuked my CSS on the other theme, so instead of cobbling it back together right away, I threw something in its place until I get what I broke sorted out.

    Interface is just OS X (10.4)’s Dashboard. Yay for shiny weather widgets!

  5. Oh ok, I didn’t know you used OS X still. And yes, shiny weather widgets are cool indeed.
