He wasn’t going to add compass because most people don’t use it, but then he added it to the Core 2 Duo as a favor to a friend who helped on that version and wanted a compass in it.

2·11 个月前Well calling it a whole genre is a bit of a stretch. Mark Sandman of Morphine coined the term “low rock” for their type of music and there’s a couple bands heavily influenced by them that also use that label. Monique Ortiz makes music that continues the low rock vibe, and then she’s collaborated with Morphine’s drummer on Bourbon Princess, and put out an album with Morphine’s saxophonist as “A.K.A.C.O.D.” And there’s also the band “Twinemen” with former Morphine members.

- Battery life. With the battery and cpu efficiency improvements in the last 10 years, if the features and other specs stay the same then battery life should be incredible. I think month-long battery is likely possible.
- Improved voice recognition and AI features. Pebble had voice recognition but it sent everything to a server to process. Now they could run speech-to-text on the watch itself or on the connected phone.
- More durable buttons. A known issue with the Pebble 2 is eventually the buttons turn to mush.
these are kind of micro-genres since there’s only a few bands playing in these styles:
- brass house - saxophone-based dance rock. Moon Hooch, Too Many Zooz, and their combined side-project Thundersmack.
- low rock - sax and bass guitar jazz rock style originated by the band Morphine, and continued by Monique Ortiz and the band Bourbon Princess
I wish there was a company like Fairphone or Framework laptops but for TVs.
