    This is awsome bc Github Gist links aren't Cool URL's and break on name changes even though repo's don't and Gist's have those hash ID's. I don't know that the Styles need be quite…

    I get some of this (have an unused Pinephone), but I'm still thankful they tried (built up a stir) and, FWIW, the PineTime is OK and the Pinecil is the best soldering iron I've see…
