Show HN: E-Ink Day Schedule
Instead of using a cronjob you can put the device into sleep and use the RTC to schedule the next wakeup (see [1]). This takes only very little power, as the device is only turned on for mere seconds and sleeps the remaining time.

CutiePi – thinnest Raspberry Pi 4 tablet
The stopgap solution for this is pascalw's kindle-dash[1]. I set it up on my jailbroken kindle and now it displays some headlines, my google calendar events, and the weather (via OpenWeatherMap API)

Show HN: QueryCal – calculate metrics from your calendars using SQL
Hey HN, I built this project because last year I did a terrible job of actually taking time off work and needed a way to see just how overdue I was to take a day off.
Because so much is already automatically tracked in my calendar (e.g. the HR system adds calendar events for booked holiday), I just needed a way to query it to get the metrics I wanted.
Originally I used a Go MySQL implementation to evaluate queries but it was a bit buggy and didn’t support all the SQL I wanted. Now I’m using a full SQLite database for each user so you can really do some gnarly queries (recursive CTEs, window functions, the works).
Personally, I’m using QueryCal as a Grafana datasource to power a dashboard that’s displayed on an old Kindle on my desk (using this great project: https://github.com/pascalw/kindle-dash).

You will have to compete with much cheaper ideas like this kindle-based dashboard https://github.com/pascalw/kindle-dash

Show HN: E-Ink Day Schedule
I don't think the resolution is the problem with images on e-readers, but the amount of grayscale levels.
Dithering works brilliantly on these devices. I made a photo frame out of one of these by calling some imagemagick from golang.
