I have been using ChatGPT to write a few scripts this week, mainly firewall
related, one to auto report to abuseipdb and similar. But also a couple of
weather related scripts. I am waiting for a weather alert here to start on my
next project with ChatGPT

I have been using iTerm for almost as long as I have been using Mac's which is
far too long :) It is my default terminal now. I use BlueMail which I complied
here. I added rsz via homebrew so I can download and upload mail by using
triggers

Sadly my 2015 Macbook Air had to be Windowed so I could use my weather
forecasting software. It went with me to Mongolia in 2015 and was dropped so
many times but lasted
