Thanks for the feedback. I think you're saying that it would be good to see an example not just in the spec files, but right in the readme that GitHub displays when you visit the repo. That's a good idea. I'll do that. I'll also make it more clear that the primary work is in that spec file.
The design was inspired mostly by markdown. I initially mentioned that in the readme but I guess it was lost in my edits. I will add that back. Thanks again.
I hope you can correct me here, but I don't believe Debian offers any commercial support. That's what people are paying for. It is kind of amazing to be able to call a reliable OS vendor when your hardware vendor is blaming the OS and you need a third party to get involved.
I'm going to throw my support behind this one as well. I'm circling back to Debian after a long stint on Fedora on my primary machine. I've been running Debian 12 on my desktop for several weeks now and it's been pretty great.
it is one version behind fedora in gnome releases, so I installed the latest gnome from the experimental repos and that worked pretty well. I don't know if I would recommend that for anyone else, but it worked for me.
I have a few personal servers still running CentOS 7, but I will be migrating them to Debian slowly over the next few months. I suspect I will go fine. Debian organization to maintain FOSS ideals over the next 5 to 10 years, so it seems like a good default for me.
I have read about Vanilla OS. It is Debian based with some neat features stacked on top that might be fun for a desktop OS. I can see myself switching to that on the desktop if they deliver on all their promises.
I love it. I don't know what that dial is called, but it's really cool. Blue is the best color, and I say that not as an opinion but with absolute certainty.
I've been wanting to ask a PRX owner their opinion of the Christopher Ward Twelve. Seems like a slightly different take aimed at a similar market. Do you have an opinion on it?
Every time I see a moon phase I think about how much I want it despite having no need for the complication... I realize that's a silly thought because I don't need anything since I have the time on my cell phone and a clock in basically every room I spend time in.
That is extremely slick. I really like affordable watches. I get why grail watches exist, but affordable watches give you so many more opportunities to express yourself.
I just commented on your Casio post and recognized the tattoo. You have really good taste. Seiko is my favorite watch brand. That blue dial is an example of the reason.
Your choice is a classic one, much like my favorite watch which was passed down from my grandfather to my dad, and then to me. The timeless design of your watch, as with mine, makes it an ideal family heirloom. Each time I wear my dad's watch, I'm taken aback by the realization that it's over half a century old. I hope that one day, your son will feel the same awe.
In the meantime, I hope your time with the watch too. The wear and tear it will inevitably acquire will only add to its charm. My watch, while well-maintained and in great condition, was worn daily by my father. The marks of use from his everyday life over 50 years make it even more special to me. It is a reminder of him and everything he did for me. I once told my wife that I feel like a better dad to my kids when I wear it because it reminds me of what I'm working for.
Thanks for posting this link. I'm afraid my background isn't a perfect fit for this job, but at this point in my life it kind of feels like it might be my dream job so I'm throwing my hat in the ring.
That's awesome. I like the dial and hands combo.

Somewhere along the way I think the Seamaster quietly passed the Speedy as the coolest Omega.

oOoOO that dark mother of pearl dial!
Op, that's a sharp watch. if you have a minute, I would love to see a side shot showing off the convex dial.

Killer strap combo with the Seik!
I had never heard of Sherwood. That's a new one for my list!
I've never seen this brand before. That's a beautiful watch. I need a moonphase in my life. How long have you had it? How has it held up?
I was looking at one of these yesterday. Its such a sharp looking watch.
I get where you are coming from, and I hate to disagree, but I do suggest that it would look better on my wrist.
Excellent watch choice for a trip. I don't think its a good idea to travel with expensive watches anymore... maybe it never was.
