Other than being completely devoid of culture or eateries the station vibe is very similar to Montreal. Just... sterile. It's hard to imagine meeting someone in one.
I love the absence of tire dust though. Long live rails.

I posted this yesterday, and it got a pretty good response, but I know many people (myself included) bankrupt their unread feeds after a busy weekend, so here it is again because I think it's fun—especially for the #Montreal crowd.

I'm not a huge fan or anything, but I do have some amount of regret for missing the NiN show here in #Montreal last week.

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.

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.
The map view, which uses Unicode Braille characters. One plane is departing, another is arriving, and a third is not currently heuristically engaged with the airport but it’s nearby.
