The National Weather Service, one of the few parts of the United States Government that does genuine good and nothing else, now has a website that is functionally inaccessible without a JavaScript-contaminated "Web" browser.
I am so fucking tired of everyone and their mother deciding that reinventing pure and simple HTML in fucking supercomputer-needing slow as script JavaShit is somehow the better future of the World Wide Web.
YOUR WEBSITE IS NOT THE ONLY APPLICATION I NEED TO RUN AT A SINGLE TIME! YOUR WEBSITE SHOULDN'T EVEN **BE** A FUCKING APPLICATION JUST TO SHOW SIMPLE TEXT, YOU TECHBRO-ADMIRING DUMBASSES!
@arielmt There is at least a URL you can use to see a text only output of the forecast, I look at it a lot and it does still show up in Lynx as of today:
https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=37&lon=-84&unit=0&lg=english&FcstType=text&TextType=1
(swapping out the lat/long for what you need)
That doesn't forgive the rest of the shit going on and who knows if they'll cut this off at some point, but it's nice to have it.
@arielmt I don't even know how you would FIND this option on their site and have never figured that out, I literally just found someone who posted this URL once and have had it in my bookmarks ever since, this is what I want the site to be by default
@arielmt amazing
