@pavel I chose Bangle.js2 as the base for because of the screen.
No idea about exact color values, but I didn't really intend to display calibrated graphics with how washed out they look.

Actually, I'm rather surprised you're investigating that. What do you want to display?

Help, I'm having trouble sifting through talk ideas for .

Which talks would you like to hear, given the chance?

@fatboy Whereas the watch hardware I picked up for the bike computer, while otherwise nice, doesn't seem have any way to turn the device completely off whatsoever D:

Cleaning device drivers of cruft is exhausting. Yes, I did replace a rather central pice, but throughout I kept finding mistakes like using bytes instead of bits.

I hope they are gone, but am not expecting it.

Need a break before the inevitable humiliation while testing.

Riding #bike? Using a bike computer with #gps? Concerned about #privacy if connected? Bored by its closed nature? Want to implement your missing feature yourself?

Here comes #jazda: jazda.org/community/

Get involved or just follow development on irc or matrix: #jazda:libera.chat

Also there: carrotIndustries - the maker of the battery-less cyclotron github.com/carrotIndustries/cy

How cool is all that?

@ericbuijs not sure if you noticed this post by @dcz about the bike computer.

The hackable smart watch it's based on is much more powerful than the PineTime. Had I known sooner about the Bangle.js 2 smart watch, I would probably have gotten it rather than the PineTime. It's so troublesome to pair it with my Pinephone that I've basically given up. I only use it as an unconnected watch, along with the heart rate monitor. I'm a bit disappointed.
