Last PebbleOS update for Pebble 2 Duo boosted battery life by almost a week. Median battery life is now 26 days! FYI this only counts devices that are connected by Bluetooth to Pebble mobile app, and have analytics enabled.
More improvements for PT2 in the works!
@ActionRetro1 revived a PineTime in his latest video!

Mastodon 4.6 is here! It's been a long time in the works, but it's finally ready. In this release, we're introducing Collections—a way to share curated collections of profiles to help old and new users discover more of the Fediverse. We're also updating the look of profiles, alongside many quality of life and accessibility improvements.

The watch demo is the one I planned to show off at @fosdem this year. The other app is a selftest application I'm working on to test all devices and functionalities of the hardware !
Our priority is validating the HW so that PineStore can build the pilot batch.

We received the new prototype of the @thepine64 PineTimePro!
Together with Gamiee and Marek, we managed to power it up and flash/run/debug our code into the device!
Here are a few pictures of my setup!
ALT Development setup : - nRF PPKII that powers the device via the battery pins - JLINK that connect to the SWD headers on the board - Serial adapter that connects to the serial port via the external connector
ALT The internals of the PineTimePro plus a few additional wires for debugging. The SWD wires are on the top left and the power on the bottom right (the battery is currently disconnected).

Bambu Lab 3D printers: never again.
They're breaking the open source social contract (for the nth time...), and I'm past hoping they'll amend their ways.

Newest Featured Work – See what others are building on RISC-V
Docker on RISC-V is moving at a different pace now.
With community-maintained packages, Docker v29 is available on RISC-V64 within days of release, not months. Fully automated pipelines compile natively on RISC-V hardware and deliver the full stack as installable .deb and .rpm packages: Engine, CLI, Compose, and Buildx.
No workarounds. No missing features. Just parity.
This is what it looks like when a community gets ahead of the ecosystem.
Explore how it all came together and what it unlocks for developers working on RISC-V.

Solar-powered ESP32 E Ink smartwatch with long battery life
cnx-software.com/2026/04/26/…
Inspired by Watchy, the LightInk open-source hardware watch features a 1.54-inch e-paper display and supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LoRa, and GPS, all running on a 100mAh battery.
Thanks to its built-in solar panel and firmware optimization, the watch can last up to 10 months on its battery.

Linux 7.0 is out! Here's a changelog.
cnx-software.com/2026/04/13/…
We look at some notable changes, like AI tools' policy documentation and Rust being promoted as "not-experimental".
Then we go through the details of the changes for the Arm, RISC-V, and MIPS architectures.

We're going to be hosting a @Pebble developer contest starting in a few days! We've got dozens of Time 2 or Round 2 (winner's choice) as prizes, plus...
**drumroll**
3 extremely limited edition transparent Pebble Time 2!!
Start thinking of ideas for apps and watchfaces!

CLion 2026.1 just dropped 🎉 This release brings GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and other AI agents into the IDE via the Agent Client Protocol (ACP). It also offers DAP debugging over TCP, support for custom project formats, enhanced Bazel tooling, and more. Get the full picture: jb.gg/cl_261_release_x
Pricing is not finalized yet, so don't take my word for it, but the current estimate would be 1.5 to 2x the price of the OG PineTime. I don't have any date for the public availability.
