Once a week: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events

Seems highly random. Why would the Indian Premier Cricket League and Indy 500 be featured? These are national news which only a few people care about outside the respective countries.

The only other news I consume is via AllSides: https://www.allsides.com/unbiased-balanced-news They take a headline and present an article from different 3 news sources. The 3 sources will include left leaning, right leaning and more neutral new organizations so you get a perspective from all sides.

This is awesome! Anyone know of a UK equivalent?

It's not quite the same, but The Week is a magazine (available online too) which summarises news stories using the perspectives of many different media outlets. It's about as broadminded and objective as you can get, I think.

I made an application to read the weather for a given zip code and to read the news from VOA, NPR, and SKY: https://www.locserendipity.com/Start.html

To customize it for your zip code, add your zip code to the end, like this: https://www.locserendipity.com/Start.html?q=90210

You can also make a shortcut for that personalized zip code link.

If you just want text weather, that is available too: https://locserendipity.com/SimpleWeather.html?q=90210

Most surprisingly, this is an entirely static page and has no dependencies. You could download the HTML file and it would still fetch the news feeds and weather! No tracking!

This is pretty much the only way to get a reply into the visible top part of a comment thread...

I was actually put off by this division of news into the three bins.

Putting things into meme categories like this is really just embodying division...

I actually found Hacker News through https://brutalist.report/ . Nice conglomeration of headlines/links from lots of different sources. Lots of tech and science, but also a good mix of global news.

Damn! I feel like I just hit the mother lode with this website.
