"I also tried with a Raspberry Pi Zero 2, but 512 MB of RAM were too little to run a [clock]"

As we all know it didn't used to be like this! Really hope that a side-effect of the RAMpocalypse is a return to sanity in regards to memory usage.

I would have done this in either Processing, or if it was connecting to something running Plan9 I’d do raw draw commands.
