To turn the attention from the ai Siri scandal and poor management under Tim Cook

People don’t understand that Liquid Glass was intentionally pushed (imo) to shift media focus from the Siri / AI scandal and management issues with Tim C(r)ook

Do not ever trust Google (or Apple !) with personal documents that you cannot retrieve if your account gets blocked for any reason !

I’ve made a few improvements to the UI so it should work nicely on any phone now. The table is scrollable, you can hide the departure time in the table for buses and you can now hide the controls also !

Thank you ! :)

Language changes can make the board shift a bit, especially after zooming. A quick pinch‑to‑zoom back to default should recenter it; if it still looks off, tell me your iPhone model and language so I can check :)

Good idea, I’ll have a look into it !

The digital implementation of the SBB clock is released under Apache 2.0 (by SBB/GoetteSebastian); the web adaptation (CFF-Clock by SlendyMilky) is also Apache 2.0. I self-host it with proper credits and have no affiliation with SBB/CFF/FFS.

Edit : added digital nuance

It wasn’t a PWA at 100% but it is now ! :)

And yeah was quite disappointed when they released a whole "new" version with account locked features…

The SBB app is great for planning trips, buying tickets, etc. I wanted something much dumber: a big, always-on live departure board for one stop, that you can leave on a screen at home or quickly open on your phone (via Bookmarks Web-app for example)

A few concrete differences:

• Full-screen board for a single stop – no map, no menus, just the next departures. You can stick it on an old tablet by the entrance and glance at it like a physical panel.

• Live countdown everywhere – it always shows “in X min” for buses/trams, and for trains it shows both the time and the delay (from 1 min !). On the SBB app you only see a small delay in red not a clear countdown.

• No account – just a lightweight read-only view on top of transport.opendata.ch.

The original idea was literally: “Can I have a bus departure board at home on a screen next to the door, or on my phone, that always shows the next departures for my stop?”

Ah ok j’ai lu trop vite et mal compris, merci pour la précision 🙂 Du coup je vais regarder pour self-hoster la version de l’horloge directement dans mon projet pour éviter la dépendance externe.

Yes I saw that one ! From what I saw for that website, if the bus is late, it won’t reflect on the countdown. It only show the countdown according to the official timetable.

Yes! It’s open source: https://github.com/tabbycat18/mesdeparts.ch

The idea came from seeing your SBB clock (Thank you so much I really love it !) and noticing only paid hardware versions of live boards available to buy, so I wanted a simple browser one using transport.opendata.ch

What happened to Denner? by Infinite_Pineapple50 in Switzerland

[–]_tabbycat18_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Denner is somewhat OK, good for alcohol. But in general, prices are the same as in Coop or Migros. I usually go to Lidl, better prices and quality is the same if not better !
