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

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Yep. I switched. Doubt anyone will notice tho

My god it’s all strings.

not uncommon for data to be displayed on UI

This is a pinetime it looks like.

You should get one, open source and $30.

[–] ramsay@lemmy.world 31 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Does it support the watch command?

user@watch:~ $ watch now

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

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.world 32 points 2 years 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.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 2 years ago (2 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!

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] haui_lemmy@lemmy.giftedmc.com 6 points 2 years ago (9 children)

Interesting! I have read that its not capable of a daily driver at this point which isnt such a surprise given the fact that even the fairphone is 500+ $/€. Smartphones are more like computers than phones i guess.

What was your experience with the pinetime? If you want to share I mean.

Gave a quick check, and it costs more than twice the price to buy it in EU, everything from Pine64, for some reason, odd, will look at this in more detail later at some point in case i missed something because the idea of an open, not locked, not tracking your every move smartwatch is appealing, but that doubling the price thing is a minus.

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.

[–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

They should put it as Unix epoch instead!

Finally. A human readable format. And pretty too.

Hopefully that's not a resting heart rate.

They’re just excited about posting this image online.

Clocky McClockface

Use datatypes

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 years ago

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

[–] Cwilliams@beehaw.org 17 points 2 years 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

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

It's perfect 🥹

[–] UnRelatedBurner@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

what does the last 4 mean under stats?

[–] xanu@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

distance: how far you've traveled if you put all the steps in a line (may also be gps tracked too)

azm: active zone minutes or how many minutes you've spent with your heart rate in the "active zone" where you burn more calories

floors: how many flights of stairs you've climbed

calories: estimate of how many calories you've burnt based on all the other stats
