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

This is a pinetime it looks like.

You should get one, open source and $30.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Does it support the watch command?

user@watch:~ $ watch now

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

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 31 points 7 months 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] 12 points 7 months 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 7 months 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.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (2 children)

They should put it as Unix epoch instead!

I prefer YAML please

[–] [email protected] 81 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Please, dont joke with things like this. Someone might take you seriously...

[–] [email protected] 47 points 7 months ago (2 children)

XML it is!

[–] [email protected] 17 points 7 months ago (3 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] TxzK 8 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

yaml sucks. I'd like a toml one

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago

I exclusively use YATL: Yet Another TomL.

Use datatypes

[–] [email protected] 19 points 7 months 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 7 months ago

If only fitness apis were actually that easy

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Here's one for Wear OS / Pixel Watch.

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

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

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