⌚ InkWatchy turns the open-source Yatchy/Watchy e-ink smartwatch into a real daily driver.
It ships watchfaces, a launcher, apps, games, weather, and a calendar. The whole experience runs on #ESP32, powered by #Slint's software renderer.
A great example of how far you can push Slint on very constrained hardware.

New in the next #Slint release: drag and drop.
Wrap any element in a DragArea, pair it with a DropArea - that's all you need. A data-transfer payload carries the data between them. Single-window for now, more to come.

#CarAudio #Suzuki #Vitara #Music #TaskParalysis
I play music in my car via a USB stick (no carplay, and buggy bluetooth). For the longest time (years!) I've had problems with certain song files and I just couldn't figure out what was wrong.
I finally forced myself to pull my finger out of my arse and diagnose it properly. I found a Suzuki spec sheet for file types and started a process of re-encoding and re-tagging with the help of MediaHuman Audio Converter and Kid3 on my Mac.
After several rounds of testing I eventually established:
1. Bitrate is crucial
2. Encoder is also crucial
3. Tag length is also crucial
4. Filename length is also crucial
5. Punctuation in filenames is also crucial
6. Filesystem path length is also crucial
7. Having a stick that doesn't overheat is also crucialSo now on my computer, aside from my main music library which is part FLAC and part MP3 320, I now have a "car stick" folder which has everything as AAC (M4A) files, bitrate 196, no MP3 tags at all, and a simple folder structure with filenames that include artist, album and track but have no non-ASCII characters in them.
Finally I can play all the albums that were mysteriously refusing to play in the car. #Slint, #SecretMachines, #Mogwai, #Mono, to name but a few.

will then install alpine and finish the move of my local infra to k0s
also, thinking in writting a simple launcher in rust + #slint to use when wanting to play something; my desktop is the main horse power here, and I use Sunshine to stream stuff to the living room TV (and occasionally my mobile device)

Untitled (Albini Rough Mixes)
2026 RSD Ltd. Edition
@ #45rpm
Grey Matter vinylDiving into the last few pieces of the #rsd titles, and this was a pleasant surprise.
A wonderful sounding reissue of the ‘94 release.
Albini was a great champion for Slint from the beginning, and when a different band booked recording time with him and DIDNT show up, Steve invited Slint into the studio, and recorded these songs instead.
Touch And Go eventually acquiesced and signed the band, after originally rejecting Tweez, and telling the band AND Albini that they weren’t interested.
What came following was a little album called Spiderland.
It was also very heartwarming to open up the open cardboard and see that picture of Steve.
A lovely tribute, and an incredible sounding pair of songs.

I just found out that the maintainer of the Slint linux distro passed away back in January of this year.
Anyone know if the project has been completely stopped, or if someone else has taken it over?

We maintained five widget styles. Now we're picking one. The next #Slint release (1.16) makes Fluent the default on all platforms.
