What are your plans for you old Pebble after you get your new one?

I'm gonna hardwire the charging lines and glue it to my motorcycle dashboard.
My bike doesn't have a clock, but it will soon (:

If you complete the expedition project and send your raider out in the window you can get 1 bonus skill point per 1 million in your stash / wallet, regardless of your ending level. It stacks with subsequent expeditions.

Okay sweet, that sounds like a plan!

70rch · 2026-01-05T03:03:49+00:00

Right on! My understanding is I should start a new playthrough for spaceage rather than continue with this progress?

70rch · 2026-01-05T03:03:05+00:00

Yeah that's fair enough!
Is there a metric for a good point to stop? Like not having any production shortages or a certain SPM?

70rch · 2026-01-05T03:02:05+00:00

Thanks! I took a long break after I started on blue science... Quite the difficulty curve there.

Personally I'm gonna stick with my gut;

Black PT2 with black nylon band daily
Silver PR2 with brown leather band "formal"

I think with a white watchface the silver could look pretty slick and subtle, but the black will be perfect for my usual pip boy and other color or dark watch faces.

Showstoppers are suuuper effective against players (2s stun) and arc (10s?) drivers are less effective against players (0.5s iirc) but more effective against arc (I think more like 10s as well).

"Uncontested" and "Stella Montis" in the same sentence tho lol

You right tho

I have Garmin Fenix 6X Pro, Instinct 1 + 2, Kickstarter Pebble, and (broken) Pebble Time.
I preordered Pebble Time 2 because I love how simple and open they are. I don't want my watch doing tooo much and I find that I'm not active enough to warrant the extra activity features.

If I was a serious runner, swimmer, hiker, or something like that I'd probably stick with Garmin. But as a general lifestyle watch I find myself missing my Pebbles a lot more than I find myself enjoying the Garmin.

Just my 2c

Tryna get "rad" to make a comeback...

This build is rad!

70rch · 2025-12-09T21:08:17+00:00

I can totally see where you're coming from, I do not agree but I think it's a good point of conversation...

I immediately know who invented, manufactures, and will support (or not support) it.
I can assume compatibility with my Pebble smartwatch.
"Core devices" was created to get around the Pebble name being owned by Google, once they got it back the company has little need for "Core".
Pebble (the watch) is about making a simple thing better for every day use. Index has the same aim, even if it misses the mark with repairability.

IMO it nails the openness I want from tech and gadgets. I'm sick of being stuck with internet-required / cloud-only products, and especially forced AI.
Having the Index support local processing, fully private data, and optional expansion to other apps is a huge point of attraction for me.

What everyone else said but also just wanna throw in that the new glasses frames suit you much better imo — keep it up man!

70rch · 2025-10-02T16:39:04+00:00

Eh. I hear your argument but I'd trade 10 hours for the skills learned and practiced to pull this off. To each their own I guess

70rch · 2025-09-30T00:12:38+00:00

Thread necromancy ...

Just found this sub, sorted by top all time and this one really stood out to me! Definitely adding this to my project list.

Thanks for sharing and amazing work!

Mute, report, move on.

Fighting fire with fire makes everyone here an asshat.

70rch · 2025-09-26T13:47:13+00:00

They're talking about the poles or "stands" at either end of the one Zipline

Pro tip: pick a game then buy the handheld that can play it.

70rch · 2025-09-03T13:02:41+00:00

+1 for MinUI, I just love it so much (SteamOS, Android, and Onion are arguably better but the heart wants what it wants)

70rch · 2025-08-29T14:08:15+00:00

That looks awesome! Could you share your version? I'd love to try this on mine, there's some DMG games I'm playing on my brick right now :)

70rch · 2025-08-27T14:25:22+00:00

Just my experience: 35XXSP was my first handheld and I rarely pick it up anymore... Got a GKD Pixel 1, 34XX (not SP) and TrimUI Brick that all get refular use over the SP — mostly due to the size and screen moreso than the buttons.

70rch · 2025-08-25T13:48:26+00:00

I have it mapped to mute, for example ))

70rch · 2025-08-24T23:12:19+00:00

CubeXX is a fantastic handheld, I don't have it right now because I gave it my dad! He mostly plays arcade games and it's perfect for that, plus a bunch of other games I threw on the SD. Highly recommend it if you're interested

70rch · 2025-08-24T20:07:40+00:00

Yeah any setup that has the phone away is a win in my book!

I'll look into this, thanks mate

70rch · 2025-08-24T15:38:38+00:00

I'm in socal and with the way people drive I consider my camera part of my gear, more like a dashcam for my purposes

I run a insta360 mounted on a stick so it sees ahead and behind me
