All podcastsS01E08: After √64 (O'Clock)
In the eighth episode of PineTalk, Ezra and Peter discuss news on the PinePhone keyboard accessory, InfiniTime 1.0, Plasma Mobile progress, Megapixels 1.0 and answer three community questions. They also share their minty-fresh first impressions of Pine-y wrist-wear.
The third and final community quote of the day is by Matt Burger @matthewburger "We’re definitely hitting the same high notes; we’re just not singing the same song."
Thank you Matt for sending it in!
What have we been up to lately?
Ezra: is still working on his point and click adventure game:
Has received a PineTime and will definitely make some videos for his my YouTube channel Elatronion (also available on Odysee). Make sure to like comment and subscribe!
Peter:
LINMOB.net is now running with Zola, a static site generator written in Rust.
Now working on a replacement for LINMOBapps, read this blog post for more information on that.

News
Plasma Mobile reports progress
also, since then: Podcast client called "Kasts" with a k!
It was being implemented a feature of Alligator, the feed reading app, but was then branched out. It’s awesome.
First impressions with PineTime
InfiniTime, default OS on PineTime developed by JF
Amazfish, originally a Sailfish OS app ported over to Kirigami that works with many smartwatches
WASP-OS Installation Guide
wasp-companion is a thing, but the flatpak does not build as a dependency can’t be resolved) and struggles with wasptool, that uses components that no longer come with bluez on Arch Linux. (There is, however, an Android companion app (wasp-os companion for Android that seems to be a Flutter app, so it might be possible to bring over to the PinePhone.)
Casio style watch face for InfiniTime - Thanks Electr0lyte!
Off-topic: Fluffychat 0.3.0 (a Matrix client) runs on the PinePhone now.
Community engagement 😀
Listener Questions
sleep dealer Hey @talkpine do any of the pinephone OS offerings have a voice keyboard or mycroft type assistant? #askpinetalk
Mycroft GUI:
Peter’s video with a Mycroft GUI If you, dear listener, have played with speech recognition or assitant features, please get in touch!
Wikipedia: Speech recognition software for Linux
@Epicanis Would a hypothetical new redesigned "pinetab2" with more easily-sourced parts be more feasible than chasing unavailable parts for the current pinetab?
eshep asked via email about NixOS on the PinePhone
