From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Oh, showing the equation is very nice. I'm not sure why I stopped using it, no copy-pasting or something?

[–] herrcaptain@lemmy.ca 6 points 9 months ago

I literally just stopped using it yesterday but can't remember why. I also think it had something to do with not being able to copy/paste. I know I also didn't love that it doesn't seem to have a memory function, though nor does the app I replaced it with.

Personally, it was precisely the fact that it didn't show the equation, so this fix makes me extremely happy.

Does anybody know if there will be more providers or the option to add your own for the Weather widget/app?
