Last night I laid in bed thinking about what animals would look like if they were crossbred with giraffes, and then spent a long time thinking about whether there was any species that even physically could do so. Even Elephants would have trouble I would think. But like if a Giraffe did manage to impregnate another animal, what if the baby got both the long legs and the crazy neck, they would probably need a C Section. Anyway, I checked there are no species that can interbreed with Giraffes, they branched too far off, they adapted too hard. Even other types of Giraffes rarely mate.
@RickiTarr my daughter says she’s going to draw a frog-giraffe for you, and then thought about it more and laughed and milk spilled out of her mouth. Will post the drawing when ready

Or just give up on bluteski, forever
@kevinrns I'm curious, did you read my blog post?
I considered this the pertinent, completely accurate point.
"If services don't want to provide moderation then they shouldn't let their younger users be exposed to harm."
We can all help protect users from bluesky. Its an job, an avocation, a duty.

but since you have a post about brid.gy, you probably already knew that :)
@Edent Interesting. Incidentally didn't they violate GDPR by not requesting an extension to the SAR within 1 month?
Going to the shop, does anyone want anything?
@astronomerritt Coffee beans, we just bought a burr grinder and would love to test it out...
@RegGuy genuinely don’t know if my local corner shop stocks coffee beans but it actually might, it’s surprised me before
@astronomerritt I was surprised to find my local place does after we decided to buy a grinder. We got a really nice one on sale and not boosted by tariff tax. So a big win for us.
@astronomerritt World peace, and an end to hunger. But only if you have room in your bag.

nice bikkies
oh, can you pick up some marbles while you're there? I seem to have lost mine
@charism8 if my local Spar stocked marbles I’d be much saner than I am now
did get some nice bikkies though. practically mandatory innit? if you have to go to the shop you deserve a reward for going.
@astronomerritt The subtle level of charming comedy in your posts keeps me coming back for more...@charism8
@RegGuy This is lovely of you to say, but I am pretty sure that among the people of Northern Ireland I am considered less funny than average 😆
@astronomerritt Ah, but I have but a touch (great-grandmother) of Irish in me, so it still tickles me funny bone.
@astronomerritt A fallen leaf collected on the way?
@MartinVuilleme there’s certainly a lot of them!

@astronomerritt If you could somehow track down a Mars Delight that would be amazing (RIP to a real one)
@DrChris unfortunately my local Spar does not exist outside of space and time (though I swear some do)
@astronomerritt am I too late to ask for a Double Decker?
@astronomerritt I left Ireland with entirely too few Starbar Duos. Could you grab a handful and hurl them west for me, please?
@bucknam winding up for it as we speak

@astronomerritt can you see if they've got any tuits. Preferably the round ones.

@astronomerritt Well, I did buy my folks a bowl with this joke on a school trip to Ironbridge, many many many moons ago.

I finally bit the bullet and spun up my own instance. I've picked a fun domain name that others might end up enjoying too, but for now it's just me, myself, and I.
It's running on #Snac2 on a Hetzner (ARM64!) instance in Germany, so the connection is a bit slow for me as I live in Asia, but should be fine for most everyone else I suppose. I could have put it on a Vultr instance, but this'll do for now.
Other than this.. nothing new to report? You may know me from the #BitBang #Mastodon instance, but since I've been wanting to give self-hosting a try, I figured now is as good a time as any to actualy try.

The U.S. Department of Energy (@...) responds with a statement from washingtonexaminer.com claiming wind and solar energy infrastructure is worthless without wind or sunlight. Readers added context noting batteries store electricity for use at different times.
@georgetakei The same old stupid lies the oil companies have been trying to implant into the minds of the stupid since the 80s.
@georgetakei haha wow a classic "anti wind/solar energy" talk point I've heard in france in the last few years too...
I guess I should remove the solar panels from my roof and stop charging our EV and running the house for about $7 per month. What a scam.
@georgetakei I got a real charge out of this post. I'm storing it up for a day when I need a good laugh!
@georgetakei For several months of the year my battery will hold enough charge from the solar panels during the day that it can power the house overnight.
And that's not counting the winter days when there's so much wind power being generated that the utility is giving it away for free so I charge my battery up.
@georgetakei solar is useless due to lower capacity when it gets over 65 degrees, wind, inconsistent. You want reliable clean energy go nuclear.

Last Thursday, Cardinal Matteo Zuppi, who is the head of the Catholic Italian Bishops’ Conference, led a prayer vigil in Marzabotto, Italy. He began by reading aloud the names of every Palestinian child killed by Israel since their genocide began.
It took 7 hours.
Just to read the names of the children.
Anyone who isn't disgusted and horrified by this needs to get their humanity card checked.
Towards the end of last night I decided to shoot M45 - The Pleiades. For me this is a very special cluster because it has almost the same story associated with it across the entire world. Almost everywhere in the world it is some variation on seven sisters being chased by a man (Orion). This consistency is unique in the myths and stories associated with the stars, and the sort of thing that makes amateur cultural anthropologists overly excited.
Here I have used two similar telescopes, but with different filters. The blue one was shot using a basic light pollution filter, and the green with an Ha/OIII filter. The overall exposures are similar (50-59minutes), and the post-processing is similar. The green one was shot on a #DwarfII, and the blue on a #Dwarf3.
The different orientations are because I had packed up the DwarfII, expecting clouds that had appeared earlier to build up, whereas what actually happened was they dispersed. So I set it out again, but only in Alt/Az mode rather than EQ.

can someone tell me why people with the surname smith are more common than others like cook or baker or fletcher
@mynameistillian my guess? the craft of smithing was very important prior to the advent of the industrial revolution, especially to the ruling class due to their need to outfit troops for war and their need to fabricate construction supplies like nails.
@LexYeen @mynameistillian Smithing was also a rarer profession, so "John the son of the Smith" was less ambiguous than "John the son of the Baker".
@maxthefox @LexYeen this doesn't explain why they fucked more
@mynameistillian @LexYeen They didn't (or maybe they did, blacksmiths tend to be quite hunky), but more smiths got that surname than bakers did.
@mynameistillian I guess every village needed a smith for ploughs and other farm tools, but families did their own baking
Is Miller also a more common name than Baker? Flour milling there's also similar need for specialist buildings, though there was also taxes at various times (UK) of "you must use the local parish mill, not grind at home"

@mynameistillian look at how manufactured guitar straps work, then do that.

11 years ago, the most explosive #political controversy erupted in the #USA:
President #Obama wore a tan suit
A #Republican said then:
"There's no way, I don't think, any of us can excuse what the president did yesterday. I mean, you have the world watching"
2 things:
1. the heaven of: that's our "big problem"
2. how the fuck did morons whining about a tan suit come to prevail, when they are such a fucking joke?
how did deranged lying outrage kill this country?

and yet, instead of mocking laughter, as they deserved, they leaned into this derangement

what the fuck?
@benroyce Lips are sealed when convicted felon perpetrates another abominable thing
@benroyce The Barack Obama Tan Suit Controversy has the same vibes to it as the Great 1969 Tea Trolley Collision from British comic strip Bristow, about an office clerk dealing with a life of boredom.
Just saying.
@benroyce It's typical Conservative values. All about appearance and nothing of substance. A political dogma of go faster stripes and no engine.
@benroyce to say nothing of the outrage over his using Dijon mustard.

Meanwhile Trump does McDonalds and well done steaks with ketchup.
@benroyce The right used precisely the same tactics here on Jeremy Corbyn. Endless headlines about his attire, which was always either too scruffy, too smart, or inappropriate in some other imaginary way. One whole news cycle was dominated by his poppy being too small, as this was supposedly disrespectful to those who died fighting in the World Wars. Another time it was his cheap coat that attracted the ire of the tabloids.
The right wing are deranged and preposterous.
@ApostateEnglishman @benroyce You forgot to add "prosperous"; the right wing is prosperous because being a sniveling liar is the new fashion, and people are stupid enough to pay them. Unlike the left, they get what they pay for.
@Ponygirl @benroyce Yeah, it's a gravy train for sure. A lot of the criticism of Corbyn by his own MPs came from those disgruntled at being disempowered by his member-led movement, which he had almost single-handedly grown to be the largest social-democratic party in Europe. Since Labour under Corbyn was receiving subs from more than 600,000 members, the party no longer needed corporate donations, so career politicians were seeing their gravy train grinding to a halt.
@ApostateEnglishman @benroyce Here in the states, the Democratic party hates it's social democratic base, which has grown exponentially since 11/24. Even the lofty Obama won't be able to stop it this time.
@ApostateEnglishman @benroyce Precisely. All surface and no substance. The Right's politics in a nutshell.
Remember the stupid russian hat thing
@Geri @benroyce Yes! With the Kremlin in the background - despite the fact that it was actually the Tories who were up to their necks in Russian money, just like the Republicans today in the USA.
Every accusation (or in this case, tacit implication) is really a confession. Accuse the other side of what you're doing yourself.
@Geri @ApostateEnglishman @benroyce
One UK adult, a teacher, informed me she wouldn't be voting for Corbin because he 'looked like a Goblin'.
I assumed she was influenced by some very primitive tabloid media.
If this is how low @bbcnewsnight has stooped to keep Corbyn out, you can imagine the crap in the trash tabloids.

Billionaires own our media.
That is the root of the problem.
There used to be rules that prevented the consolidation of media ownership. Those rules were removed by Republicans, fascist billionaires bought up the media and for 40+ years, American have been force fed a steady diet of Nazi lies.
It's not just Fox. It's all of them. ABCNNBCBS and all of the major newspapers and radio.
Our media is not informative, it's pure propaganda.
THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS.
This is the message. This is they key thing that's killing EVERY democracy.
Paid speech is not free speech, and billionaire ownership of all the ways people get their information is paid speech.
But the only permanent solution is to make billionaires not exist anymore.
Even before they owned all the information sources, they played them with layers of think tanks and what not.

#Texas #Democrats on Monday prevented their state’s #House of Representatives from moving forward, at least for now, with a redrawn congressional map sought by #Trump to shore up #Republicans’ 2026 midterm prospects as his political standing falters.

The #Republican dominated #House issued civil #ArrestWarrants intended to compel the return of absent members, but it was not immediately clearly whether those can or will be enforced beyond #Texas borders.
House Speaker Rep. Dustin Burrows urged #Democrats to return to “fulfill your duty.”
“If you continue to go down this road, there will be consequences,” he said.
#law #ElectionLaw #redistricting #gerrymandering #rigged #elections #Trump #GregAbbott
Speaking Monday on FauxNews, #GregAbbott essentially admitted to the partisan power play, noting that #SCOTUS has determined “there is nothing illegal” about shaping districts to a majority party’s advantage. He even openly acknowledged it as “#gerrymandering” before correcting himself to say #Texas is “drawing lines.”
#GregAbbott insisted ahead of the scheduled session that lawmakers have “absconded” in violation of their sworn duties to the state.
“I believe they have forfeited their seats in the state Legislature because they are not doing the job they were elected to do,” he said in the FauxNews interview, invoking his state’s hallmark machismo to call the lawmakers “un-Texan.”
“Texans don’t run from a fight,” he said.
#law #ElectionLaw #redistricting #gerrymandering #rigged #elections #Trump
#Democrats said they had no plans to heed the governor’s demands to return.
“He has no legal mechanism,” said #Texas Rep. Jolanda Jones, one of the lawmakers who was in New York on Monday. “Subpoenas from #Texas don’t work in #NewYork, so he can’t come & get us. Subpoenas in Texas don’t work in #Chicago. ... He’s putting up smoke & mirrors.”
#law #ElectionLaw #redistricting #gerrymandering #rigged #elections #Trump #GregAbbott
A refusal by #Texas lawmakers to show up is a civil violation of legislative rules. As for his threat to remove the lawmakers, #GregAbbott cited a nonbinding legal opinion issued by #Republican TX #KenPaxton amid a partisan quorum dispute in 2021. Paxton suggested a court could determine that a legislator had forfeited their office.
Paxton, who is running for US #Senate, said… #Democrats who “try & run away like cowards should be found, arrested, & brought back to the Capitol immediately.”
#law
The #Texas Supreme Court held in 2021 that #House leaders had the authority to “physically compel the attendance” of missing members, but no #Democrats were forcibly brought back to the state after warrants were served. #Republicans answered by adopting $500 daily fines for lawmakers who don’t show up for work as punishment.
#GregAbbott, meanwhile, continues to make unsubstantiated claims that some lawmakers have committed felonies by soliciting money to pay for the fines…

@Edent Have you seen the new Pebbles? They have contact points on the back with a little magnetic USB-C adaptor for it.
Small portable third-party charging adaptors with an USB-C port offset the issue.
Having to carry such a device is still more inconvenient than if the watch just had a USB-C port, but it is better than carrying the entire proprietary charger with a cable.
I have an Apple Watch and I use a no-name charger from China (see attached pic), which is way more convenient to carry around than a full cable.
I don’t get why Huawei watches and even AirPods can have Qi-compatible wireless charging, but most watches are supposedly too small for Qi.
@stek29 that's exactly the opposite of what I want.
Ending up with a dozen different adapters for each device, easily losable or breakable, is *not* the future I deserve.
@Edent Its so they can sell us a charger. Sensible Govt should insist on standardisation of such devices, but they won’t.
@johnelalamo the law exists.

It doesn't cover very small devices like watches though.

Watch face which looks like an industrial electricity meter.
@Edent any idea what it runs in the background?
@smallsolar you mean the OS?
Whatever they could cobble together in Shenzhen I expect.
Definitely not Android or anything like that.
@Edent yeah I suspected not android, just wondered how hackable these sort of devices are. Wonder if it's got something like FreeRTOS, I've even seen esp32s slipping into AliExpress devices
@smallsolar It doesn't expose anything over USB. The app claims to be able to do firmware updates - and can certainly transmit data to and from.
I suspect the answer is "pay a lot of money to the OEM" if you want to write something custom.
@Edent
Much appreciated.
HRV?
(heart rate variability)
@skua It will track heart rate, either manually or automatically. You can get it to alert you if your BPMs spike over a certain level.
Is that what you meant?
@Edent
Thanks.
HRV is a derivative (?) of heart rate - it provides a measure of how variable/"irregular" the heart beats are.
To some extent increased HRV is claimed to correlate with better health, more relaxation.
The watch "features" are probably going to boast about HRV if it is available.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate_variability
The sleep tracking on this £16 smart watch works. The UI isn't the easiest thing to understand - either on device or in-app - but broadly matches how I felt.
Obviously the UI is poor compared to a watch costing 20x as much - but I think this is pretty impressive.
Alt...
Watch screen with coloured vertical bars.
Alt...
App showing a sleep score of 88 and a weird graph.
@Edent The phone one doesn't look that different to what is used for Samsung watches.

Here's a rough and ready video review.
https://tube.tchncs.de/w/vYTnG6eKghnicdNj5nkhVx
Full blog post later this week.
Not sure how many days battery life you get on an Apple watch, but this el-cheapo unit is still at 75% after a day-and-a-half of use.
That's not bad!
Obviously, it isn't doing half the stuff of a more expensive device. But it is counting my steps, tracking my heart-rate, taking calls, and showing the time.
I'm curious - what's your favourite smartwatch function?
@Edent
> Not sure how many days battery life you get on an Apple watch [...]
Advertised run time is: 0.75 days.
@Edent if it could do NFC payments, it would replace apple and android watches for me.
@Edent Being able to see chat messages, and reply (from a selection of pre-written messages - eg "Yes", "No", "Thanks!", thumbs-up emoji etc...)
@Edent
Phone alerts while I'm driving or similar. Countdown timer. Extended info (moon phase and similar).
Funny enough most important thing I missed when my Garmin sacrificed itself for me, before in the long run getting Garmin after trying others:
Easily add alarms or start a countdown timer. I use those in my everyday all day long.
But sadly none of the normal watches can do that, those fitness bands sadly neither and all the normal smartwatches are dependent on touchscreen which I hate. I want buttons that I can use w/o thinking or looking, thru habits I acquire just by use.
@Edent
My favorite feature is automatically unlocking macOS and substituting double-clicking a button in the watch for using the fingerprint reader for unlocking my password manager and other security stuff.
@Edent NFC payments, recording bike rides with Strava, walking turn-by-turn directions, Siri for starting timers and performing unit conversion. (Apple Watch – up to 15 hours of battery life, much less if working out)
I find I don't use most of the health stuff: Sleep tracking, Heartrate, step count, etc.
Today's task - try to connect this to #GadgetBridge.
It is a Colmi rebranded MoYoung so I think it should work, but I need to figure out how.
If you've added a new device to @gadgetbridge before, give me a shout 😃
Alt...
Smart watch on my wrist with a USB-C cable plugged in to it.
The journey of a thousand miles starts with opening an issue.
https://codeberg.org/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/issues/5193
If you've ever set up a new device on #GadgetBridge - I'll take any and all advice 😃
@Edent Holy crap, Colmi makes smartwatches now?!?
I have a smart ring. I recommend downloading the nightly version as it is likely to have the latest devices and updates
@ernie yup! And only £16.
Scroll up the thread for a video review. Blog post in a few days.
@Edent I did a review of my ring here:
https://tedium.co/2024/11/08/colmi-r02-hacker-ring-review/
So nice that a company like this exists and is making cheap hackable electronics
@ernie nice!
I got this one (which is now US$75) because it does MFA.
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2024/02/giving-the-finger-to-mfa-a-review-of-the-z1-encrypter-ring-from-cybernetic/
No tracking, but useful for logging in to things.
Holy shit! It worked 😁
I used #GadgetBridge nightly, I turned on the debug stuff, and added the unsupported P80 as the V89.
And it looks like most of the stuff works. I can track battery, change watch face, measure heart rate, see steps etc!
Alt...
Screenshot of gadget bridge.
@Edent GB FTW!
I have a Bangle.JS 2 via GB and it's belting. The best bit is the battery life - with heart rate monitoring, step counting and notifications I've got over 11 days out of it on the last charge, and it's making the last 2% last for ages!
@tuxicoman @greem
Scroll up. The watch I'm reviewing is £16. That's pretty affordable.
And it works on a reasonably open protocol so it can work with open source apps.
@Edent @tuxicoman yep, that.
I've had Pebbles, the PineTime and now the Bangle and the data only goes where I let it go. I'm willing to forego some fancy functionality like tap to pay for a device which does what I need it to, and I control the data flows.
If I can also write apps for it, so much the better!
cool tell me when you get notifications from SMS, EMAIL, XMPP app.
Usually Gadgetbriges forwards all notifications
One limitation of the Pinetime for example was that non ASCII letter were not supported. :(
For example 'é' char widely used in French would not be displayed or could be replaced by gadgetbridge by a 'e' but that is not a good solution.
Oh, and even if you can't do deep coding - you can always improve the documentation.
https://codeberg.org/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/pulls/5192
Open source is about helping others in *any* way that you can.
Nice! Even without modification, #GadgetBridge can read this sub-£20 smartwatch's data.
Gets sleep, steps, and heart rate without issue. Seems pretty accurate - picked up my exercising just now.
Few missing bits like notifications (which I'll try to diagnose today) and some of the more esoteric settings.

@Edent you've caused me to order one of these. I don't want an expensive smartwatch but messing around something cheap is another matter.

Here's the full blog post about this ridiculously cheap smartwatch.
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/08/i-bought-a-16-smartwatch-just-because-it-used-usb-c/
@pikesley That's the million dollar question.
In *theory* there's some OSS for updating the watch faces, but I haven't got that working yet.
Notifications can be sent by GadgetBridge, which offers some possibilities.
I'll contact the OEM and see if there's an SDK.
But, yeah, buying a few hundred of these could be cool 🙂
@Edent I wouldn't say I *like* my Mi Band 6, but the battery lasts 2 weeks and it's adequately waterproof. Not sure a USB C with a plug would cope with my life.
@Edent "Based on the three that I tried, PD chargers will not negotiate down to 1W levels."
It's not the chargers. The watch is simply missing the two 5.1k resistors connecting the CC1 and CC2 pins of the USB-C connector to ground that are required to indicate to whatever is plugged in that it wants 5v power.
USB-A to USB-C cables work because they provide 5v unconditionally. Anything that needs to care about which end provides the power (eg. a USB-C cable to a laptop) won't work.
@Edent Just ordered one
I believe there's an app to display various QR codes - can I add those without using the phone app?
@jackeric nope, that requires the companion app.
But you can deny the app Internet access, block contact and GPS etc. As long as it can connect to BLE, it should be fine.
@Edent occurred to me 0.2 seconds later, how would one load a QR code onto a device without a camera otherwise... d'oh! looking forward to putting my supermarket loyalty cards on there
I'm trying not to be a quantified self-indulgent twat who is driven solely by gamification.
But my watch has just given me gold stars in steps *and* sleep!
Alt...
Screenshot showing 10k steps, 7.8Km distance, and 8 hours of sleep.
An update on this ultra-cheap USB-C SmartWatch.
I've been wearing it for about 10 days and it still has 20% battery left 🤩
I'm using it for exercise, step counting, heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, and some notifications. I'm not using it for calls (although it supports that) and it doesn't have GPS.
The charging graph on #GadgetBridge is a bit wonky - assumes it is on 100% once charging starts. But other than that, pretty accurate!
Alt...
Graph of battery consumption.
@Edent The charging thing could be caused by the watch picking up on passthrough current from the charger, making it think that the battery is full. If you unplug mid way through, does GadgetBridge switch to reporting the correct charge level, or does it start dropping from the false '100%'?
@Edent
Thank you very much, I hope you are happy now. I've ordered the P80 smartwatch and also the P81 (no USB-C, but only 11€ 🤯, and slightly larger 300mAh battery). Will report if it works with #GadgetBride equally well.
@Edent
Got my P80 smartwatch today. To add it as a different model, you have to install gadgetbridge from https://freeyourgadget.codeberg.page/fdroid/repo/ and to long-tap the P80 in the discovery menu, then choose "add test device". Maybe you can add that to your blog?
The German translation is a mixed bag, the "Display" menu is translated as "show", some menus are easy to understand, others I can only guess.
Did you get contacts sync to work with GadgetBridge or only the original app?
@autkin
@ge0rg @autkin
It is mentioned at https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/08/i-bought-a-16-smartwatch-just-because-it-used-usb-c/#open-source-and-gadgetbridge
Feel free to leave a clarifying comment on the post.
I didn't try contact sync because I don't use it for calling.
@Edent my favorite features of my Pine64 PineTime are that it:
- tells the time
- provides a light when I'm walking in the dark
- doesn't spy on me
- stays out of my way, doesn't bother me with notifications or calls
- lasts about a week between charges
- only cost $35
@Edent favourite function? I spend a significant portion of my working day acknowledging MFA prompts. Having them on my wrist rather than my phone is perfect, and I feel like a caveman on the rare occasion I'm not wearing my watch at work nowadays
@Edent Notifications top (phone is always silent), payments, health and workout tracking, not needing a phone when out for a run, and bluetooth presence so Home Assistant knows when I'm at home.
@Edent The reason I bought a smart watch is so I don’t need to carry my phone while out for a run, yet my favourite feature is probably that it acts like a HUD, meaning I don’t need to get my phone out to read a message, see where to go at a junction, skip the ads on a podcast, or even check the time…
@Edent My favorite smartwatch funcion is being able to set recurring alarms with reminder text right on my watch, without needing my phone. I loved this option on my first Casio DBA-800 and have picked databank and smart watches just for this option ever since.
Currently a daily user of Alarms++ on a Pebble Time Steel (still working). https://github.com/reini1305/alarmsplusplus
@dat just tried. It was discovered and connects - but doesn't do anything.
Do you know how I get started with it?
@Edent I had presumed water getting in would be the issue - but you've answered that already!
My Huawei GT2e uses wireless charging. And was a bargain when I got it! (About £70, I think.)
@Edent with the same usbc to mag cable adapter as all my other usbc & micro-usb devices. The only problem is they attract magnetic swarf.
@jbond yeah, I've been using those for a while.
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2020/07/gadget-review-magnetic-charging-cables/
I've found that the cable ends fail a bit too often. I think the charging pin wears down.
But, yeah, magnetic USB-C is the (impossible) dream!
@Edent Read your article, but chose NetDot. I've only had one bad cable. I have probably 20 widgets installed, and 3, 4 cables used every day.
@Edent I was sceptical about smart watches when they came out, and none of this is encouraging me to change my mind.
I suspect it's the same thinness-at-all-costs drive that led to generations of MacBooks that got too hot to touch if you compiled a moderately-sized codebase, and glued-together phones with non-user-serviceable batteries.
@threedaymonk yeah, my last one wasn't a success.
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2014/07/smart-watch-wearable-technology-failure/
But I'm enjoying this one so far. Will see if it lasts 😄
@Edent I've had a Citizen Eco-Drive watch for over a decade (quartz mechanism, but the screen is a solar panel, so it never needs winding or a new battery) and I recognise that I'm too curmudgeonly for this target market, but I wonder if they'll ever get smart watch power consumption down to the point that they could harvest ambient power from light, movement, etc.
@Edent Threw this on lemmy. https://piefed.social/post/1117153
Having a universal charger/data would be a dream. I would like wireless but I have no idea what that would entail.
@michaelch good to see that no-one on Lemmy reads the article before commenting 😆
@Edent heh. It's the universal constant of the interwebs. Why read when you can comment ;)
Bug fan of your articles (and RSS). Some interesting takes in the comments.
"Is the future of the open social web one dominant protocol or bridges and duct tape?" @atomicpoet at #Fedicon
The future of the open social web is people connecting with people no matter what technology they happen to choose. And if bridges and duct tape is what's necessary, then we'll continue building bridges, because it's connections and community over everything.
I never get tired of watching vehicles crash into and getting stuck under bridges.

Jonathan Capehart explains why he has now left Jeff Bezos' Washington Post, siphoning yet more brilliance and truth from that cesspool of a journalistic enterprise:
"We’re supposed to ignore [what's happening to the country under Trump]? Leave it to others to wrestle with on their news pages and websites? No, no, no, no, no, said in 'Get Out.'”
@wdlindsy We got tired of the paper’s decline and ended our 30 year subscription last year. Alienating your core customers is a page from the Tesla business model. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Washington Post is out of business in five years.
@Patrickoldhiker A good decision, seems to me — and tragic, that we're now forced to repudiate journalistic outlets that once did courageous things to serve democracy, but which have now decided to trash their noteworthy heritage.
@wdlindsy better link to Capehart’s Substack instead https://jcapehart.substack.com/p/goodbye-washington-post

@welshpixie 😟 Who do you mean?
@welshpixie Oh wow, that's unexpected and hard to believe for me. But I know that you're usually referring to actually happened statements or actions. Are there sources to back this up?
PBS and NPR have been defunded by law passed by Congress, not just an executive order. The government agency that funds them will wind down in a few weeks.
It’s crazy all of this was mapped out in Project 2025 and is being executed like clockwork. A well oiled machine of economic and intellectual sabotage.
This is bound to bring some joy to your day. Everything about it is delightful.
