I use this all the time. I find this option pretty neat:

  curl wttr.in/Moon

Shows current lunar phase.

I use Termux[0] on my phone with curl installed. Pretty handy.

Also, check out rate.sx[1] from the same author:

  curl rate.sx

Shows information about current exchange rates of cryptocoins.

    curl findip.win

Just FYI this doesn't seem to work with MacOS's default Terminal app. I guess it doesn't support 256 colors or something.

heh... visited that link and tried it; then I remembered that I sit behind a proxy. Guess what happens when a proxy first caches the entire responwe of that page and then sends it to the client all at once? :D

Also very useful:

curl ifconfig.co (shows your public ip)

[nvr219]

I just use an alias

   myip is aliased to `dig +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com'

I do the same! Only catch is, doesn't always work if you're on a restrictive network that only allows udp/53 to a specific DNS (captive portals, corpnets etc). I use a small shell script that tries the DNS trick first, then falls back on HTTP if that times out.

Nice. I like the curl thing because I can hop any any server and not have to worry if I setup an alias or not....I got a lot of servers I am constantly on.

I used to use this a lot, but when I tried yesterday (and same today) I got a Heroku error message :(

Not sure if it's temporary down or fully off.

[hitpointdrew]

I get that occasionally too...not sure why, but if you spam it it usually works after 3-4 attempts.

Don’t forget the /json

Thank you very much for sharing this info. Now I can use wttr.in in a varied manner
