SystemSix: An e-Ink desk accessory running on a Raspberry Pi
SystemSix is an e-Ink “desk accessory” running on a Raspberry Pi. It is a bit of nostalgia that can function as a calendar, display the weather, the current phase of the moon or just be generally fun to look at.
To be clear, despite how it looks, it is not interactive. It changes every day to display a new “desktop”, will update to show local weather, your calendar events, phase of the moon. But you cannot click on it.
It was wrtitten as a love-letter to my first Macintosh. Hopefully it is nostaglic, somewhat informative, and fun.
