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.

Sure, it snowed on Sunday, but the asparagus proves that Spring is actually finally happening in #Montreal.

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.
Alas, The Internet provides.

It's super cool.
Just 17 minutes.
Congrats to the Montreal-based creators and all who were involved!!

I couldn't go to #VCF #Montreal last weekend because I was away. Did any of you go? How was it? (Despite it being way down in St-Jean, not in Montreal…)
Haven't heard anything at all. Worth going if they do it again next year?

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.

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.
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.

There’s not really any Chicago deep dish style pizza in #Montreal so we’ve got to make it ourselves.
