The Pebble Smartwatch is (maybe) coming back!!!

And the OS has been Open Sourced!!

For those that don't know the Pebble, it was one of the first smartwatches.

Some things about it where there has been NO SUITABLE REPLACEMENT FOR IN ALMOST 10 YEARS (that have more than 3 of these):

- an e-paper display

- a Battery that lasts more than 3 days.

- simple (I don't need 1000 features I don't use but make the watch expensive and cost battery life. I only need telling time, notifications, music control, alarms, weather, calendar, sleep/step tracking. Thats it)

- hackable (you can't even create watchfaces on the apple watch, and for the google pixel watch you need the whole Android SDK and basically have to make an android app) the pebble had thousends of user created watchfaces on its store.

- freaking physical buttons. I loved to control my music from my wrist without having to look.

I've got myself a google pixel watch a few months ago and I hate not beeing able to control music blindly and having to charge it every 1-3 days. The only good thing is, that I can use Google Pay from it and control some HomeAssistant stuff.

Everything you think you suck at... is hackable. Your voice. Your posture. Your presence. Your confidence. Even your hair. You don't have to be born with it. You can build it.

ok im feeling brave. im listening to a random guy on yt explain blades in the dark rules so if he can do it i can too... here are my FATE rules explanation vids!

i think they're most helpful as a kind of lecture to listen to while also going through the rulebook, but i do give a bunch of examples for the subjects im talking about in the vids themselves🫡 and FATE is pretty simple imo!

(thinking about prev reblog) i have so many thoughts about the switch 2 and piracy and emulation and how so many people just do not understand how it works and that it is so much more difficult than people will make it seem but im tired and i dont want to type all that so you guys will have to wait for the morning for this rant because this is something i think a lot about

hii omg your synthdragon au seems so cool !!!! i love their designs in the art you made & i also think the storyline is rlly cool from what you mentioned !!!!

whats your favorite thing / random facts about it ?? :0 id love to learn more about it !! :)

My favorite things? The powers I've given them!

Chosen's power is my favorite! Chosen's power is literally a Duex Ex Machina (though his superpower name, Perpetia, is kinda the opposite of that, so you can guess how he feels about it). It's able to gain/utilize a few major (and, if need be, minor) powers based on need OR comedic potential.

He has fallen out of the sky numerous times because he started enjoying his practice and that was no longer narratively important. He has summoned a massively large spoon out of a cabinet when he knew they were out to eat some soup because it was funny.

Second: Hey, how DO your powers work? Why didn't they activate during that big fight against Lysis (Dark) Chosen: Ah... well, they worked to an extent. It was at the end of the battle they failed. Because I wouldn't die. She saw me, on the ground, and could've killed me with a thought. And yet she couldn't bring herself to do it, so I didn't need my power. Chosen: ...I think it was because they failed, that she couldn't. Seeing me like that. Second: ...your powers are cruel. Chosen: I can make instant popcorn without a microwave I wouldn't say that--

The thing about math and English analysis/essays is that they both have formulas, and people are taught their whole lives that math is predictable and safe and logical, whereas English is more exception than rule and you must work on vibes alone unless you become some kind of monk who can diagram sentences and I'm like. The fact that I can diagram a sentence is why I like grammar. Everything has a place and everything goes in its place. And tbh, algebra is about the only math that stays predictable and safe and even it's full of theorems and whatnot - just not as bad as other maths. I know the structure of an analytical essay as surely as I know the quadratic formula. I can solve for a thesis paragraph as well as I can for x. They are siblings to me, and there was a moment where I wanted to maybe be a math teacher until I realized the sheer level of actual theoretical guesswork I would have to absorb in order to just be left alone with my algebra.

Idk man, pattern recognition is a hell of an instinct. I've never really understood the divide between math and English (the subject, as it pertains to analysis and essays). Things that can be solved by formula are safe, and that's not just math. It's just that with English and writing/grammar, you learn the rules and formulas so that you can better make your point in an academic setting. It's a tool in order to execute a belief or a project. It's communication. It's purposefully setting up a trope and then turning it inside out just for fun because you know what everyone is expecting. You know the rules your readers have learned because you learned them too, and you've learned that individuality is stored in the nuances and exceptions you're most keen to explore.

I love when the UX of software heavily implies way it works internally. like, you can see the way complex operations are built out of simplier operations built out of yet simpler operations built out of atomic operations.
