@ericmigi.com Thanks to the new Pebble app I am able to use my Pebble Time Steel while recovering from rotator cuff surgery. Necessity is the mother of invention and I needed a lanyard setup since I couldn't wear the watch on my wrist. 😎⌚

Prototyping. On left, the official Minirig 4 case that has a zippered top and no port access while in case. On right, a case I made today with no zippered top and all port access while in the case. Cordura fabric, Gore-Tex liner. 😎

Current setup on the school bus: two Minirig 4 speakers wired in stereo, one FiiO BTR17 Bluetooth DAC wired to the speakers, and one HiBY R4 DAP handling the music playback over Bluetooth to the FiiO. I've been doing this for decades; I don't think I've ever heard a better setup. 🤘

Something about the #Pebble Time 2 redesign reminds me of the Philco Predicta, and in a VERY good way! I love it! @ericmigi.com it was a stroke of genius moving to that look. 😎

What's really mind blowing is given how old this #Pebble Time Steel is, it is more responsive with its Bluetooth playback controls than many other popular smart watches released after it. Can't wait for the sequel! 😂⌚

My son asked me if I had any #OzzyOsbourne songs on my music player. The Prince Of Darkness? That's like asking a bird if it can fly. Ozzy is required listening (that's the early beginnings of synthwave) and an excellent teaching opportunity. 🤘🫅🦇

One of my favorite Pebble watch faces. Hope I can use this on the upcoming Core Time 2.

Sadly, even with the Rebble instructions followed to a T, the Pebble 2 HR and the Pebble Time Steel as well as the Pebble app do not work with the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. See photo for full explanation (BSky word count limitation). @ericmigi.com

I'd love to get back into making and recording music again, especially with my #orangeamps rig, but it's hard when others out there are doing such a great job! 😆🎸

This is one of my absolute favorite bands #JulienK with a song from their new album "DRK MODE" which I am using to test my sound setup (under 30 secs) using a @minirigs.bsky.social Minirig 4 , a FiiO BTR17 , and a HiBy R4 which all takes up less space than a tablet. 😎🤘🎹 #synthwave #synthpop

My ideal Spring Break: music on another level. I've been a huge fan of @minirigs.bsky.social for years, and with the Minirig 4, all of the things that I hoped the next iteration would have are there. Minirigs, you absolutely delivered. 😎
