@troubleMoney … what is that?
re: apple thingy
@kirby that's a Breitling Chronomat, one of the first watches to have a slide-rule bezel
Slide rules were used for quickly calculating things before calculators were invented and someone had the bright idea of adding a circular slide rule to a watch so people like engineers and scientists didn't have to carry one around with them
Later on the same idea was picked up by pilots

@troubleMoney "Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea."
also smartwatches

@troubleMoney wonder if an Apple watch can even tell the time without a multimegabit mainline to Cupertino

@troubleMoney I mean, this really isn't a fair comparison...
The Casio is way easier to use.
