I unironically love this and would use it as my watch face just to get a reaction from my coworkers. Link?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Yep. I switched. Doubt anyone will notice tho

My god it’s all strings.

This is a pinetime it looks like.

You should get one, open source and $30.

Does it support the watch command?

user@watch:~ $ watch now

Otherwise, who knows when "now" was...

Watches should be round IMO. I'm happy with my Samsung Watch 4 Classic.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but square screens are way cheaper to procure and to program for, and every little helps in an open source project aiming for $30.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (3 children)

honestly just depends on what kind of watchface you want, square is cheaper and in some ways more convenient so if you don't want an analog clockface there's no reason to bother

Thanks for posting! I was looking at the pinephone esrlier but this would be an even better tinker device for me atm!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (10 children)

The pinephone is not really usable now. The pinetime is awesome though.

Awful lot of strings that should have been integers. It is JavaScript, though, so I guess that tracks.

That’s something I think I’d like to use, but I don’t know if could get over the fact that neither the date nor the time are in ISO 8601 format.

They should put it as Unix epoch instead!

Let's go back to binary blobs. Everything being xml and json is boring.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I have just the thing for you! Ever heard of binary XML?

Hopefully that's not a resting heart rate.

Use datatypes

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago

I've seen too many android devices with corrupt memory showing something like that to want it as a my watchface...

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

If only fitness apis were actually that easy

You can connect to a vscode server on a Galaxy Watch, just sayin'

You've got the hour hand and the minute hand… they're right there. What's wrong? /s
