The Pinetime Software Efficiency Could Be Like Peak Gaming Consoles (lemmy.ca)

Think of the games Last of Us and Red Redemption 2 running beautifully on 5+ years hardware that both have had heads turning in the gaming industry even the pc gamers thanks to the crafty optimizations made by the developers.

The same deal could happen with the Pinetime as it is open source with an unlocked bootloader and has incredibly talented contributors. It would be funny watching people with Apple Watch Ultra 2s start asking us questions about our humble little Pinetimes because of the killer features we have invented on such limited hardware.

Thats close to my own thoughts about the pinetime. We own three. The wife, me and a dev kit. The stuff you can build for it is insane. People have gaping mouths when you tell them its less than 50 bucks and they stop talking about their stupid 600 bucks apple shitfest.
