As I live in Europe, France exactely, why not include the system that is used for instance by WMWeather under Linux and that makes possible to use the world wide city weather codes that already exist !

For instance My town of Bordeaux in france has "LFBD" has code, which provide temp, wind speed, etc..... when you include it into a program for instance as wmweather ....

what about it ?

Great job!!! I like this a lot. Keep up the good work!

Neo your such a ditz, first off its a BETA bone head, so dont be quick to jump and spit out crap before you think. Matrox didnt have to do this at all for anyone, but he did because of the interest everyone has in it. and again it says BETA its not complete and I know Matrox will work further on it, if there is more interest in going futher with it and yes even including Canada.

I am glad all of you like it, err...most of you like it :)

Mike11212: Sure, but I would wait until Beta 2.

Syntax Error: Its made with VB6.

Xcert: What error? My guess would be that you dont have the correct runtime files. You can get them Here.

Mike11212: IIS is not required for this app to work, but a internet connection is. You may have to configure your firewall to allow it to access the internet.

Beta 2 is in the works. I am trying to add everything you all have requested.

    • Microsoft releases new Windows 11 Media Creation Tool with the latest updates

      By erpster3 · Posted

      MVS subscribers got the proper 26200.8655 Win11 25H2 ISO downloads as of 6/16/2026 avoiding this whole MCT fiasco by MS. I'll obtain the official 8655 MVS ISO download instead.

      too bad the "backend" June 2026 ESD files are still at build 26200.8653 and not at the correct build 26200.8655 release. I'll avoid using the MCT for several weeks until late July 2026
    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand

      By Nas · Posted

      Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.
