@aviophile So are most of my rants you see. Its interesting tho how people always comment when they hate something.
I will give ou advice buddy. When you dont like something. Just scroll by it and ignore it.
Some people just like these kinds of rants. If you dont just fucking ignore it. -
@Haxk20 sooo, what’s the hardware? I’m intrigued about this project.
-
@100110111 Cheap. Rpi 4. Ofc stripped of full ethernet jack and etc. Will be connected back using some sort of plug to keep the thickness of it to bare minimum.
-
@Haxk20 Why not a raspi zero?
-
@Haxk20 think me as a movie/game critic.
-
@aviophile as in has opinions which you should always take with a huge pile of salt?
-
@100110111 as in movies are public things, like devrant posts. We shall be able to criticise everything? There are/should be many disagreements on a public domain. It is like saying only people agreeing with me can write to my post.
-
@aviophile then you are a damn bad critic. Because if i take look at your rants then some dont even make sense. Which would mean you critic others people work while producing basically the same crap. Uninteresting rants. You may like them but to me they look not interesting. Tho some are interesting
-
@yakomakaza because rpi zero is 1 core 512MB of ram shit. Its bot powerful enough to be truly used as smart watch.
-
@Haxk20 why would you look at my rants? For revenge criticism?
-
@aviophile that wasnt my intention. I just wanted to see your rants when you said mine are basically shit and i was rather surprised to find out that some of your rants are on worse level then this one is.
-
@iiii im aware. But i still stand by my opinion that its shit for what its supposed to be.
-
@Haxk20 what is it supposed to be? Its intention is a fitness tracker with bells and whistles.
-
@iiii yeah and i wwnted to use it as one gps refused to work. Timer is always off by few minutes and etc
So i was just using my Mi Band 4 and while its cool i dont like having crap like that on my hand. Heck it cant even fucking run Linux kernel. AKA its useless.
Yes that means im going to build the top of the line smartwatch. And actually do the name "SmartWatch" a freaking justice. Android Watch ? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. Android watch is shit. It can run Linux kernel but its still useless. Its not running mainline linux kernel. And to the new people. If you are going to build anything running Linux. Make sure its fucking Mainline linux or dont bother releasing it.
So while all the plans arent fully done yet. I have some parts ordered and when it all arrives you can expect some pics and probably a writeup on github on how exactly to do it all blah blah.
Obv all the files i will use will be opensource. Except the things i cant control like the firmware of the hardware which is required.
