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 10 months ago

Yep. I switched. Doubt anyone will notice tho

[-] ironcrotch@aussie.zone 149 points 10 months ago

My god it’s all strings.

[-] petersr@lemmy.world 64 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Always has been

not uncommon for data to be displayed on UI

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

This is a pinetime it looks like.

You should get one, open source and $30.

[-] ramsay@lemmy.world 31 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Does it support the watch command?

user@watch:~ $ watch now

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

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

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

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 32 points 10 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.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 10 months ago

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 10 months ago

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

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 10 months ago

They should put it as Unix epoch instead!

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

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

[-] bus_factor@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

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

yaml sucks. I'd like a toml one

[-] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 10 points 10 months ago

I exclusively use YATL: Yet Another TomL.

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 20 points 10 months 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 10 months ago

If only fitness apis were actually that easy

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

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 10 months ago

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

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

But a json file is used for storing settings and the like, not for providing real-time data, yeah?

[-] felbane@lemmy.world 71 points 10 months ago

API calls often return json. It's just a data format.

[-] Winter8593@lemmy.world 35 points 10 months ago

I think:

  1. that's the joke
  2. this is just a watchface template, not an actual file being updated constantly
[-] Turun@feddit.de 11 points 10 months ago

/sys/: am I some kind of joke to you?

To be fair you won't find Jason there. But plenty of files that provide real time information about the system!

[-] Daxtron2@startrek.website 8 points 10 months ago

No it's used for all types of data transfer and real time data as well.
