Really nice to see that with each release of #InfiniTime there are less things I need to change in the code to adjust it to my liking.
Only thing left for me is to adjust to what screens you get by swiping in certain directions on the watch face. I want swiping up to directly enter the music controller and swiping right to open the "app" screen.
I use the music controller often. Hiding it in the app screen makes it unpractical, especially since the touch sensor of the #pinetime is a bit sad.
I'm running custom firmware written using @TinyGo. Admittedly I haven't been using the watch a lot, but BLE, the touchscreen, and the step counter have all been enabled this time.
(It says InfiniTime only because that's what Gadgetbridge scans for, it's not actually running InfiniTime).
I had ordered a #PineTime late october from the Pine 64 website. It came in France mid-November. I paid taxes online (I first checked if it was the real website of laposte). But never received it. Both local carrier (#LaPoste) and Pine Microsystems advise me to check with the other one...
Any advice? :shibacry:
Funny: I was just about to post how my #PineTime has been absolutely waterproof for me(gym, shower, dishes, etc.) and then it started doing this (constant vibration motor at low speeds I guess?).
Latest #InfiniTime 1.14, a 10s-button-reboot doesn't help, nor does triggering normal vibration. I can't make it stop, how does one turn this thing off? 😂
The screen is also constantly backlit. 🤔
EDIT: lol now it stopped randomly? wtf... 🤷
EDIT2: aaand again 🙃
updating my #PineTime#InfiniTime firmware to the new 1.14.0 version right now and i geniunely feel like i'm living in the future. OTA firmware updates via bluetooth, BLE filesystem access, it's all so useful
Reduced memory footprint, improved raise-to-wake functionality, fixed weather service with °C/°F selection, improved build system, this new version has a lot to offer!
#Watchmate v0.5.0 is out - a companion app for #InfiniTime powered #PineTime smart watch! It is already available on Flathub, and hopefully soon as community distro packages.
The highlight of this release is the new option to run in the background, accompanied by a variety of related fixes and additions: auto-start, auto-reconnect, recover from system suspend, persistent settings, and more.
HEY! What are some of your favorite gadgets you got this year? And I'm not talking about an iPhone 15 Pro or whatever... tell me the quirky stuff! Neat products you love and don't think many people know about. :D
There can be some glitches:
(1) pairing may require turning on + off in settings, then you need to click back and select smatwatch again.
Yesterday it took me about 10 minutes to connect.
(2) I have noticed some reconnect issues which needed systemctl restart --user harbour-amazfish from terminal
Smart-/Fitness-Watches gibt es viele. Wer nutzt eine und wie macht ihr das mit dem Datenschutz? Ich werde mal die HUAWEI WATCH D einem Praxistest unterziehen. Natürlich auch die App.

Leider sind meine Pebble Uhren mittlerweile hinüber.
Wrote an algorithm for drawing circles, to be used for an analog clock.
I looked a bit into circle drawing algorithms but in the end I came up with something unique that I haven't seen before - including a unique way of doing anti-aliasing. I'm not exactly sure how it works to be honest or whether it's exactly correct but it works, is reasonably fast and it looks nice.
Lines are way, way more difficult than I expected! And it's because lines (with thickness) are essentially rectangles that can be rotated, and it's easiest to draw them as a polygon.
The code is still rather buggy but I have a somewhat working analog clock. Even here you can see that anti-aliasing is broken in some cases - I suspect I wasn't careful and I have integer overflows on 32-bit systems.
...I should probably take a break now as I've been far too obsessed with this.
