It should grab the current moon phase image of the server as the server is doing all the leg work behind the scenes. If you just want a visual display, then you can create an image geeklet and use this address: Why don't you just use the command tool to poll a website that provides the moon phase data, grab the results, and then dump those results on to your desktop? That's pretty much how all these weather geeklets work. Has anyone found any geeklets that do that? Geeklets doesn't even have anything at all when just searching for 'moon'. One of the things I used to love about some desktop widgets were moon phase ones where it would show the current.

Does Mac OS X have easter eggs?Įdit: speaking of easter eggs, some google-fu: For a second I thought it was a mac os x easter egg. My New York friends think I'm just in love with the novelty of it and if I lived there long enough I'd hate NYC in the winter as much as they I tried the cowsay terminal command only to find out I don't have it. There is something beautiful about NYC in the winter. I'm not a big fan of cold weather, however I've been to NYC twice during really cold weather fronts, and both times I loved it. I assume the same for those in the cold climates who adjust what they do indoors and outdoors. However if I head down to shop or pick up something and I see the heat index is what you'd experience in hell, I turn on the air-con because I know I'll be coming back sweating buckets. If the actual temp is 30+, it's bearable indoors with the air-cons off during early morning and early evening. So we try to be conservative where we can. During the summers, our electric bill skyrockets because of the air-con use. Yeah, but the reason for both is because the actual temp is what you experience indoors, and the 'feels like' temp is what you'll experience out doors. Don't tell me what the temperature is and then the 'feels like' temp. Padgeman, thanks for the weather site link. I just didn't know what the opposite was for colder climates although I have heard of 'wind chill' before, but I just never understood the context.

2-3 weeks ago the heat index here was 47.2C (~117F), fun times indeed. I know what heat index is as I live in Hong Kong and during the summer the heat index is on average 40C/104F+. It may be 95˚F out, but if it's particularly humid outside it could feel like it's much hotter, etc.īasically they use 'Feels like' as a place holder so they don't have to switch between Heat Index and Wind Chill, which would change depending on the season/locality/etc. what it feels like outside, while wind chill calculates what it will feel like with the cold and wind, as wind increases the rate at which heat dissipates from any surface (like skin). Heat Index calculates temperature with relative humidity (at the surface) in order to allow people to infer. 'Feels like' = wind chill in colder climates, and heat index in warmer. And what does, 'feels like' mean? Is that the heat index? Does Ireland have a heat index? I always assumed Ireland to have a colder climate.
