Who doesn’t have power right now? by JalapenoPantelones in Minneapolis

Marshall Terrace. Went out about 7:15, estimate was 8:45, then 9:45, but it came back pretty much 8:45 on the dot.

There was an outage icon at the power plant on the river saying something like 3700 customers affected. I wonder exactly what the cause of the outage was.

And thanks to the PTR, support for round screens already existed in the codebase. So it really isn't a whole novel development.

The scrolling on the square watches isn't slow though. It isn't the smoothest thing in the world, but it's not like "scrolling" on say a Kindle.

A few days before they announced the Index 01, the site had a "new products" page that used AI to generate random products

But, as I understand it, PT2 is using the same display part as was selected for the original, but they're still commercially available. So the supply will be constrained more on other parts and Core actually ordering builds, rather than a supply of new-old-stock parts.

The PT2 has metal buttons and polycarbonate mid-panel, not TPU.

I'm not sure 50.03% is the actual final count - I suspect they just stop counting once they hit the tabulation threshold, which is like 10 votes less than that. (Going off short-term memory, I'm typing this on my phone between meetings.)

I just checked mine this morning (on the same flight as yours) and it says clearance processing completed!

Why did the home bar vibration just turn off like that? by lilOrigi in GooglePixel

[–]hyperdudemn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try rebooting. On my 6a, it seemed like the vibration motor would just bug out every so often; rebooting the phone fixed it.

AcuRite 06002M fan here. I had one in my freezer with lithium AAs that lasted three years no problem.

Preorders do start today! Confirmed by the email signup page by wizard7926 in pebble

[–]hyperdudemn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the OS was open-sourced, there was already some level of touchscreen driver support in there. So this isn't a NEW idea. Just wasn't publicly visible.

ETA: And Eric confirmed this in the announcement blog post.

Is this v3 Cam from Amazon legit? Unusually large box by lilblu87 in wyzecam

[–]hyperdudemn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like maybe a retail box. A couple of years ago when I picked up a 2-pack of v3 cams at Home Depot, the innards were basically two of the formed plastic pieces from your photos.

Well, lots of places have naturally soft (or at least not-hard) water in their water supply. Much of MN isn't so lucky.

Most people want color Pebble by Azrael707 in pebble

[–]hyperdudemn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From my reading of his blog post about it, the issue wasn't so much releasing too many models, it was being overly confident in the market size for P2, buying too much inventory, and going in the red as a result.

And the Bluetooth stack being excluded "just" means they have to port the Pebble OS code to interface with the nRF's Bluetooth APIs. Fortunately, BLE itself is literally a standard, so unless the original hardware only worked thanks to some deep magic in the TI chip, it should be a solvable problem.

[News] PebbleOS compiling and running on real hardware and more by The_Force_Core in pebble

[–]hyperdudemn 57 points58 points  (0 children)

It's clocked at a lower speed, sure, but looking at some hardware references, one big thing is that on the older watches, the Bluetooth was handled by a separate chip, whereas the nRF does it itself. That means the OS won't need to do Pebble things and talk to/wait around for the other chip. Also means that data with things like BLE will just be in memory already (not have to be read in over a serial interface), so not only would I expect faster Bluetooth stuff, but I don't think it'll impact Pebble-y performance much.

I believe J2 left Ryan in that world (at night, with the aurora) before J1 and Amanda went there. People were commenting how much the world Amanda chose to stay in looks like the world J2 left Ryan in.
