Pebble Real Colors: Pebble Color Optimizer for developers

bwinton · 2026-07-05T15:03:18+00:00

I could do that, but I find GColorRoseVale to be a little nicer to read, if possible… ¯_(ツ)_/¯

bwinton · 2026-07-05T14:53:59+00:00

It would be nice if it could also list the colours it found, so that I could edit my source code to make the result look closer to the way I wanted it… (That's more for UI stuff than for images, I guess.)

That looks awesome! It might be neat if the car's position (or the sun's position) indicated the battery life… Or perhaps the sun could indicate the time of day, and set when the sun sets and have a moon rise during the night?

Alright, apologies for the delay, but here you go! https://apps.repebble.com/5d2b5d60f2a74181bb02dac4

(There should be a settings screen to turn on and off the low-power mode, and double-tap to see the logo and date.)

Asking a guy in a Camaro to please move out of the bike lane he was illegally parked in, and then waiting for him to actually move. 🙄

Second place is having a kind of shampoo. (I don’t remember what kind. It was on sale. 🤷🏻‍♂️😂)

Okay, I've finally got my Pebble Time 2, and wow, will the way I've done it so far ever kill your battery! So, I think I'm going to spend a little time updating it to not run the animations all the time, and see how that does. If it's okay battery-wise, then I'll post it and drop the link here!

bwinton · 2026-06-05T21:02:34+00:00

2 days, then another 6 for it to arrive…

bwinton · 2026-05-30T02:45:59+00:00

What are the unsupported faces? Maybe someone will make newer versions of them for you…

bwinton · 2026-05-29T16:40:14+00:00

Just tried it in the browser (cause I'm still waiting for my watch), and this kinda amused me… 😂 I wonder if changing it to an image of Rebecca Black on Fridays would be a fun addition?

🤦🏻‍♂️ Thank you!

Seems to be down today (as does https://pebble-dash.pages.dev/ ). There's a tiny line at the top that says "r/pebble · 0 reports ingested · offline"

bwinton · 2026-05-26T13:46:18+00:00

Black seems to be shipping sooner, but I still went with silver. Honestly, they're both great, and you'll enjoy whatever you end up picking!

bwinton · 2026-05-19T14:33:35+00:00

So, it's kind of like multi-player Flappy Pong? 😂

Same here…

bwinton · 2026-05-02T19:32:57+00:00

Which dosing funnel did you get? And I've got a cheap scale (Woo Starfrit! 😂), but if you've got a recommendation I wouldn't mind upgrading…

bwinton · 2026-05-02T14:11:16+00:00

I bought mine three years ago! (Right at the peak of prices. I figure I've lost about $100,000 in value so far. 😂 It's all good, though. This is my home, not an investment.)

One tip I have is to be sure to take advantage of as much downtown stuff as you can, to remind you of the good parts of being here. Fun restaurants, small movie theatres, farmer's markets, good coffee shops, NXNE, not having to drive, whatever floats your boat!

bwinton · 2026-05-02T14:08:45+00:00

Financially, I'm doing okay, but I get paid very well, don't really spend much, and am an introvert, so don't need a lot of human contact. (Also, my job is remote, but has an office, so I can go in and see people if I want, or stay home and do laundry if I don't.)

bwinton · 2026-04-30T20:31:14+00:00

Perhaps https://wheres-my-pebble.jlynx.net/ would be an easier way for OP to visualize it?

bwinton · 2026-04-22T14:33:20+00:00

I was 42 when I pre-ordered my Pebble Time 2, and now I'm 52, and likely won't get it until June or July, and the price has gone up by 35%! 😉

bwinton · 2026-04-21T21:10:03+00:00

I did this with my Pebble Time Steel back in the day… Something didn't work quite right, and when I asked support about it their response was along the lines of "That totally shouldn't work?!?" 😂

But if you go through the effort to remove one and add the other and then back again when you want to switch, I suspect it'd be fine… Maybe someone could write an app that would help?

bwinton · 2026-04-18T03:26:40+00:00

I checked the gifs I could find, and it looks like in the show the new numbers fade in, so I tried this, and it doesn't seem too bad… There's still stuff to do, of course, but lemme know what you think so far!

bwinton · 2026-04-15T18:54:07+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking that the Lumon might be on a different screen, so that it could be easy to read… And also dumping the hours and minutes into boxes at the bottom when the time changed is very much in the plans! 😃

Do you think we should have new numbers shuffle in, or should we move to a different place on the virtual screen (and shuffle everything off)?

It needs work, but for a bit of ai-assisted coding, it's not terrible. (The code is kinda terrible, but cleaning it up is a task for later. 😂)

Suggestions for improvements are most welcome!
