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

[-] ironcrotch@aussie.zone 149 points 1 year ago

My god it’s all strings.

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 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Does it support the watch command?

user@watch:~ $ watch now

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

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

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

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 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.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

I exclusively use YATL: Yet Another TomL.

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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[-] Winter8593@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year ago

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