For the intersection of #minidisc and #Pebble fans/owners, you can now wear a minidisc on your wrist! More socially acceptable than strapping an actual disc. Available in the @Pebble and @pebble_dev app stores. apps.repebble.com/490eb606151f4e… apps.rebble.io/applications/6…

@DoctorLemma Wrong. Half those people are on the far side of the planet, not in the photo. 😝 (Well, I suppose that depends on what continents are facing the camera, so maybe more or less than half. 🤔

For nine years, an astronomer begged NASA to turn a spacecraft around and take a single photograph. When they finally agreed, the planet it photographed was smaller than a pixel. The astronomer was Carl Sagan. The spacecraft was Voyager 1, launched in 1977 to study Jupiter and Saturn. By 1981, it had done its job and was heading for the edge of the solar system at 38,000 miles per hour. Sagan wanted it to look back once. He knew the photo would have almost no scientific value. Earth from that distance would be a speck. That was exactly the point. NASA worried. The Sun was still close enough to fry Voyager’s camera sensor if they pointed it the wrong way. Other missions kept getting priority. The years ticked by. Sagan kept pushing. They finally said yes. On 14 February 1990, roughly 6 billion kilometres from home, Voyager 1 turned its camera around and took 60 photos of the solar system. One of them captured Earth as a tiny dot caught in a stray beam of scattered sunlight. That single image became known as the Pale Blue Dot. The entire planet, every person who has ever lived, every war, every love story, every sunrise, was 0.12 pixels wide. Thirty-four minutes later, Voyager 1 powered off its cameras forever to save energy for the long journey ahead. It has never taken another picture. Sagan later wrote a book about that single pixel and called it Pale Blue Dot. He died two years after it was published. Voyager 1 is still going. It’s now over 24 billion kilometres away, the furthest human-made object in existence, still sending back faint signals from interstellar space. Does that dot make you feel insignificant, or does it make everything on it feel more precious?

Next up: Tic-tac-toe on @Pebble. Built with the Piu touch UI framework in Alloy. Check the JavaScript source: github.com/Moddable-OpenS…

Touch – coming soon to @Pebble. Alloy makes it fast and responsive. Standard JavaScript. ECMA-419 touch API. Poco mini-drag app, freshly updated by @stc1988. This is what the future of Pebble feels like.

Just a request to the @Pebble team: please don't ever remove the "Start watchface" button from the Pebble app. It allows me to get back to the watchface on my P2 watches with the missing and/or broken back buttons. Yeah, I'll fix them someday.. 😂

@S1apSh0es As nice as it looks, having driven on KS speedway at dusk, it was really hard to see going into turn 3. But maybe they are better than average drivers. 😉😁 (Old reply I just found in my drafts folder 🤣)

This is why as many races as possible should end at or near sunset. Something about the golden light sitting low in the sky just makes the end of a race feel magical.

@Pebble I just noticed the thumbnail preview shows the wheel cropped. That is incorrect. It's only cropped on the legacy Time and Time Steel with the smaller screens.

Roulette Wheel for @Pebble now supports Pebble Time 2 watches! apps.repebble.com/49907e615cc64f…

@davepl1968 @ChShersh The good stuff 😁

@ChShersh I use vi every day. What's the m for?

In the age of AI, knowing Vim still helps me daily. Truly a timeless essential skill to have.

@3_Rex_Shawn @davepl1968 @ChShersh What was the joke? 😜

@davepl1968 @ChShersh Dave, even though everyone else in the comments missed the joke, I want you to know that some of us laughed!

@SasquatchVinnie I worked, like I do most Royals off days.🫠

Soooo, what did you guys do all day on the Royals off day?

@Justanotherlake @bobfescoe 🔥

@bobfescoe This has to be up there

Brutal drive. What is the worst drive you have ever been on?

@ericmigi @Pebble Some amazing entries out there already, but I'd love it if everyone with a round watch would check out my new Roulette Wheel watchface and give it some love! Optimized for Round and Round 2, but also supports the Time and Time Steel. apps.repebble.com/49907e615cc64f…

Week 2 of the @pebble Spring Developer contest is live! Submit your apps, heart your favs and win some new watches. Top 5 apps/faces win, plus everyone who hearts an app is entered into a draw! developer.repebble.com/spring2026cont…

@ericmigi Finally, it sees the light of day! 🤣

Haha someone made a bezel mode to turn Pebble Round 2 into a PTR

@SakshiSugandhi Yes

what operating system do you use?

@ericmigi @Metek17410999 @freakified I mostly use it to find the bathroom in the middle of the night without stubbing my toe 😂

@Metek17410999 @freakified I use the backlight as it flashlight all the time to find things in the dark

beautiful and open source Pebble app from @freakified!

@royalsreview I think they look like soccer jerseys

City Connect jerseys will be revealed Friday, but many images have leaked. What do you think?

@SasquatchVinnie It's all about the Benjamins, baby

For everyone arguing that it was about cable networks, it was about both

It’s 2026, never in my life have I heard someone say “Oh the game is Blacked Out? I’ll just buy tickets to it instead” #EndMLBBlackOuts

@BVMRO1893 @ericmigi So 12-14x longer than an Apple watch then? 😂

@ericmigi Cool. Can't wait for better power efficiency for my P2D. Right now my lasts around 12-14 days.

Now that PT2 is fully in mass production, we're working on reducing power consumption in PebbleOS. Building a bunch of fun (to me at least lol) tools to help with this! Here's some charts of where we're starting at. Asterix is the codename for P2D, Obelix = PT2.

@EricGravesKMBC @kmbc I assume it will be priced out of reach of average Joe

Kansas City now has a 121 y/o bridge with a restaurant, event venue and huge public space stretching across the Kansas River. Rock Island Bridge might be the most unique spot in KC. The founder says it’s a “steel park with amenities.” We’ll tell you all about it on @kmbc.
