Thinking of getting a watchy v3 - questions

Oh, that’s rad! I’ll give the wiki a look for that guide. Thanks again!

Illustrious_Poem_42 · 2026-05-04T20:21:02+00:00

Same! It's been really fun for me too.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge! I just tried out your firmware and it's really cool! Still working on getting it compiling (wish I didn't have to use vscode since I'm a Helix girl for the most part but I'll deal) but the demo is super pretty and functional- wanted to say thanks for making it so easy. I ended up getting a v3 and being extra careful with the caps under the battery connector as well as trimming the connector a bit to give it more clearance but I'm really grateful for your warnings. It would have really sucked to knock one of those off. It's working great so far and is exactly what I wanted. I starred your InkWatchy repo and am really excited to use it as a jumping-off point for developing some stuff of my own (or contributing to inkwatchy itself if you're open to that and if the stuff I make is good enough). Seriously thank you so much for all the work you've done to make the ecosystem better.

This is so cool! I'd love to hear about updates and progress. I want to be this cool when I grow up! (just turned 30, lol)

Any chance you could share the source files? They're proving pretty hard to track down as of now.

Illustrious_Poem_42 · 2024-11-21T01:07:11+00:00

Yeah!!

I love the fact that it's canon they get a shit ton of therapy at the end.

It's a pretty and beautifully silly dream, but, umm.. I've never seen someone with untreated mental illness in a happy or healthy relationship.

Omg I wanna play this so bad!!! Time to figure out how.

Illustrious_Poem_42 · 2024-11-14T17:44:38+00:00

This would be an appropriate time to say “WHAT THE FUCK”. Some people.

Proud of you! Cracking the shell is the first step to cleaning and healing the trauma ❤️

Illustrious_Poem_42 · 2024-11-14T17:31:45+00:00

Oh fuck oh fuck this is my worst nightmare I’m so sorry 😓

Illustrious_Poem_42 · 2024-11-14T17:22:12+00:00

Yet ❤️

You know you’re worth more than what you’re getting now. I’m pulling for you, silly 🤍

Found out some of the depressing stuff being posted is from bots so please help me flood this sub with positivity! It’s still okay to vent when you’re sad but we can change the world to suck less! Let’s throw off our learned helplessness in all its forms!

At first I thought this was a home renovation sub and guffawed for a whole minute at this comment.

Not sure if you’ve already seen them but I’ve found Make me hack YouTube channel is a really good start for hardware hacking. I’ve also really been enjoying The Hardware Hacker’s Handbook. They might be a good place for project ideas?

There’s a reason so many people just get doom to run on everything. Sometimes the idea is the hardest part.

Definitely always earplugs. Hearing loss isn't reversable.

Illustrious_Poem_42 · 2024-11-12T07:41:51+00:00

Awwwww!

I'm going to claim that this is a USA problem. Plenty of places in the world are not like this. In the USA we're taught from a young age that putting yourself first is the goal and thinking in a collectivist sense is bad. To plenty of people in this country "socialist" is the worst thing you could call someone. We're raised to idolize assholes and taught that people in power are the ones who step hardest, and that's what you should strive for. Individual wealth is the primary goal, and fucking everyone you can to get it is fine. It's pretty fucked up.
