I've gotta say, my #PineTime is my favorite #Pine64 product I own. Perfect? No. A good use of $25? Absolutely.

@j3rn Do you have any funky customizations in it?

@mauve Not that I can remember. At one point I wanted to add a feature (can't remember now what it was) and looked into customizing InfiniTime, but it's written in C++ and I sorta despite C++, so I embarked on a quest to write an OS for the PineTime in Rust. I think I got something super basic compiling, but then I was worried about how I was going to flash a new version since my super basic setup didn't have firmware flashing (as you could probably guess). I should return to that at some point.

@mauve There are a few older PoCs for Rust on the PineTime, but all of them I tried I couldn't get to compile. It's a bit of a bummer that Rust code bitrots as fast as it does.

@j3rn Unexpected. Were they using a bunch of language features that got messed up?
