Well, once upon a time you could pull time from tick or tock. That's a naval observatory, but nobody gets, you can't get that, it's, it's, there were just too many people banging on them. Tick and tock. I love it. But no, NNTP, Network Time Services. So it's easy to synchronize your computer clocks up to, you know, name your favorite servers. If you wanted to, you could even pull it from Microsoft. I prefer Apple. But no, seriously. The Navy has all kinds of time servers that are available to the general public for you to sync up your little clocks. And that's how this works. And then, and then the weather is based on your zip code. Or, for a more universal application, you can also point it to name your favorite airport. So you can, you can plug in PDX for Portland or SEA for Seattle. Or, you know, whatever your favorite airport code is, it's all been programmed into it. Somebody did a lot of work. That's all I can say. A lot of work went into it. So the time part's easy. The weather, well, somebody did a lot of work to put that all together. So there, there it is. And there's a, there's a big repository on GitHub, and you just download it and, and turn it loose on your favorite installation of All Star. And there it is, W278.
