gollark: Well, like I said, ability to add custom stuff to it, and probably some FOSS firmware available.
gollark: I don't see why I wouldn't want a customizable smartwatch.
gollark: Anyway, my current watch is a £8 LCD one which just shows the time and date, and a smartwatch which you can load custom code and stuff on would be cool to fiddle with.
gollark: I don't agree with "dumb", but otherwise yes.
gollark: I mean, I have a regular watch which works fine and doesn't need charging, but... pointless cool factor...
