Okay, I think this thing is ready-enough to tell people about it.
I made a #BBS to watch aircraft near #YUL (#Montreal airport), through my home #ADSB

The yulbbs about screen. It reads:

YULBBS is powered by ADS-BBS
(a pun on the ADS-B system that provides data)

Both were created by Sean Coates: https://seancoates.com

ssh (or telnet): yulbbs.via.sc

It uses Swift, NIO, swift-nio-ssh, and dump1080 on the backend.
The antenna is near CYUL, in Dorval, Quebec, a borough of Montreal.
The whole thing runs on a Raspberry Pi 3 in my office networking closet.
Aircraft data comes from the air, not from the net. Be nice.

(Yes, I know that it's not a …
A screen shot of the “ANSI”/BBS style UI. The main “list” view of air traffic near YUL. It contains a list of featured aircraft, a chart of arrivals/departures, recent activity, and some stats.

Am planning my drive to pick up The Son from #yyj on Friday and discovered that the BC Hydro charging app has a very nice and comprehensive session summary for past charges.
It's a 2.5hr drive from home or 1.5hr from work, either way Ill need to charge before heading home.
I was trying to remember how long I charged for or what my starting point was, and there it is in the summary: 40min, going from 36% to 79%.
Now I can figure out what time I need to leave home/work to get down there, charge, and grab him from the airport. ✈️
Need to be at YYJ around 11:10. The chargers are only 5min away in Sydney (literally at the end of the runway lol) so if I'm charged by 11:00 I should have lots of time. So... at the chargers by 10:15.
done.
