wiretappedthat seems to be the source of all the 27th reports00:13
* wiretapped is ready00:13
AStormhehe00:13
AStormwhat about PL retailers?00:14
AStormany info on that?00:14
*** _jason6046 has quit IRC00:14
AStormor DE or other countries00:14
*** ouilsen has joined #maemo00:15
AStormso if everything goes well, it will hit stores ~1st october in the US00:15
RST38hAStorm: "never"? =)00:16
*** tonikitoo has quit IRC00:17
AStormRST38h: wrong, nokia.pl is offering it already00:17
AStormin preorder00:17
RST38h!00:17
RST38hSeriously though, unless it is an official Nokia blog, I doubt Sep 27 date00:17
AStormyes, it's some "behind the curtains" info00:18
javispedroyes, seems to early.00:18
AStormbut it might be accurate00:18
*** lcuk2 has joined #maemo00:18
AStormSep 27 is to the DISTRIBUTORS.00:18
AStormretailers have to order it from them.00:18
AStormthat takes time, so I expect some first shops to offer it on 1st if it's accurate00:18
AStorm+ other delays00:19
RST38hit is still too early date to be true00:19
AStormso it might be beggining of October, for example00:19
AStormit's possible.00:19
AStormthey have the devices likely in full production00:19
RST38hhardware isn't the only thing that has to be ready00:20
AStormyes, but software has to be dogfood-ready00:20
AStormand it already is.00:20
AStormimprovements can be done later.00:20
RST38hnot in mass market situation00:21
AStormyes in mass market situation00:21
AStormwhat has iPhone done there?00:21
Corsacthe dates I've seen for fr are more like oct end00:21
AStormshipped with a really unfinished version of software00:21
Corsacoct 22 for expansys00:21
AStormCorsac: possible too.00:21
Corsachttp://www.expansys-usa.com/d.aspx?i=18694900:22
AStormthe trick is that they can ship english-language versions before localizations are done00:22
AStormsame likely with Finnish and maybe other nordic.00:23
*** sphenxes has quit IRC00:23
RST38hAStorm: comparisons to iphone are meaningless.00:23
AStorm*Finn? or maybe Suomi. w/e00:23
*** luke-jr has joined #Maemo00:23
AStormRST38h: sure they are meaningful. It's the only phone on the market with major internet support for updates.00:23
Corsacinternet support?00:23
AStormuh, support for internet updates.00:23
Corsacdon't you have to plug the iphone to your itunes?00:23
AStormyes, you have.00:24
AStormbut it's easy enough00:24
RST38hHe means the jailbreaking community ;))00:24
Corsachmhm ok, internet support apple-side00:24
Corsacnot client-sid00:24
AStormas opposed to flashing firmware on other phones00:24
AStormand getting it via weird channels00:24
Corsacwell, iphone updates are reflash, aren't they?00:25
*** promulo has joined #maemo00:25
AStormthey are, but it's automated00:25
AStormthe updates try to retain files, apps and configuration00:26
*** bef0rd has quit IRC00:26
AStormthat's what I call support for updates.00:26
AStormeven plain availability of improved firmware is better than what other phones allow00:27
AStorms/allow/offer/00:27
*** luke-jr__ has quit IRC00:27
infobotAStorm meant: even plain availability of improved firmware is better than what other phones offer00:28
javispedro~ping00:28
infobot~pong00:28
SpeedEvilyeah - and breaking existing functionality...00:28
*** luke-jr has quit IRC00:28
AStormSpeedEvil: happens, yes. Better than having broken existing non-functionality usually.00:28
ShadowJKS60 phones has had flash-from-PC for years and years... and now with s60v5 and s60v3.2 also pure client-side updates without need for computer..00:28
*** luke-jr has joined #Maemo00:28
AStormShadowJK: mmmm00:28
AStormflash-from-pc with standard USB cable00:29
AStormwith included software to do that?00:29
ShadowJKyeah00:29
AStormhmm, neat.00:29
AStormusers still don't care too much for offline updates00:29
*** luke-jr has quit IRC00:29
AStormthat's why online update is so nice to have00:30
AStorm(like what S60v3.2, S60v5 and Maemo since Diablo something have)00:30
AStormheck, the phone itself could remind you to check for updates00:30
ShadowJKIf you buy a phone that is crippled by the operator though, the operator will first cripple/add bugs to the new firmware, or they just wont care and never give you a firmware upgrade00:31
AStormyes, exactly00:31
AStormthe "tunings"00:31
AStorminstead of proper changes in configuration00:31
AStormthere should be either very good, update-friendly support for operator customizations00:32
AStormor no operator customizations at all ;p00:32
*** pH5 has quit IRC00:32
AStormmost operators could live with a few logos00:32
AStormand a bunch of default settings00:32
ShadowJKhttp://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/download-software/device-software-update/faq#faq400:32
mavhcif you can't push a bugfix for a SMS overflow security hole over the air you'd think you'd be screwed00:33
AStormShadowJK: hey, you are still00:33
AStormsince people usually don't have data plans yet00:33
ShadowJKI am still?00:33
AStormmissed. mavhc ^00:33
*** luke-jr has joined #Maemo00:34
*** Vulcanis has joined #maemo00:34
AStormso you can't push in general00:34
*** lcuk has quit IRC00:34
AStorminstead, you can remind the user to pull/check00:34
ShadowJKWithout Internet connectivity you're pretty screwed, because operators are utterly uncooperative and wont lift a finger to push updates of any sort00:35
AStormayup00:35
AStormthey could do that... send a bunch of prepared broadcast messages for example00:35
mavhcand that's why you should root all their phones and use them to DDoS their own network00:35
AStormmavhc: lol00:36
AStormstupid use of a rooted phone00:36
*** zap has quit IRC00:37
AStormextra bonus if some ISP does push a rootkitbreaker00:38
AStormwhich will work against unpatched phones00:38
*** jofjdi has quit IRC00:38
AStormprompting the users to upgrade manually if auto is unsafe or impossible00:38
AStormor push an antivirus via the hole ;p00:39
*** warp10 has quit IRC00:39
AStorm(to catch all the dumb exploits that don't patch the hole themselves)00:39
crashanddie_ShadowJK, unless the operator sold the handset and have control over it, also, if they risk losing money, they will push00:39
AStormthey don't risk losing money usually00:40
AStormsince blah blah legal print00:40
ShadowJKI wouldn't be surprised if instead of pushing a OTA update, they insisted each handset be sent to the manufacturer for update00:40
AStormyep00:40
*** luke-jr_ has joined #Maemo00:40
AStormwhich of course nobody will do00:41
* ShadowJK just avoids locked/crippled phones00:41
* Mousey hands ShadowJK a palm pre00:41
AStormif a popular enough phone gets rooted in a funny way... they *will* lose money finally00:41
AStormand have to think00:41
crashanddie_in my day job I'm actually currently in the process of discussing the feasability of implementing an authentication platform for mobile devices that would allow operators to give users access to specific features -- one of the features mainly talked about would be allowing (forcing is more like the word) user access to a specific piece of information00:41
crashanddie_this comes from the idea that the more advanced the devices become, the greater the risk of a widespread "attack"00:41
Mouseycrashanddie_: goodluckwiththat00:41
AStormuntil some large operator gets bit by that, it's unlikely to be implemented00:42
ShadowJKon recent s60 you get a popup when new firmware version is available :-)00:42
ShadowJKand on Maemo we get the orange blinking ! :D00:42
crashanddie_from an authentication point of view, it's not necessarily hard -- it's the handset step that's pretty damn complicated (and out of scope for my work, I might add)00:42
AStorm*if* you have a data plan00:43
AStormit should blink some annoying message if you haven't connected and checked for updates in X time.00:43
crashanddie_AStorm, no, the whole point would be that you give users data access for such a feature00:43
AStormyou mean like minor trickle?00:43
crashanddie_minor trickle?00:43
AStormfree packets?00:43
crashanddie_yeah00:43
crashanddie_only for specific updates or software pushes, though00:43
AStormyep00:44
AStormgood enough00:44
AStormbut operator maintenance heavy00:44
AStormthey get to enable each update to be fetched in that way00:44
crashanddie_well, it's a start00:44
ShadowJKI guess a separate APN for updates00:45
AStormthat is, until they get an automated tool that does that00:45
AStormShadowJK: good idea, yes00:45
ShadowJKI'm not a big fan of reinventing the wheel anyway00:45
ShadowJKWhen operators stop living in the 20th century and step into the 21st century and give us the datapipe we want, we'll all be better off00:45
*** nielsslot has quit IRC00:46
AStormyeah, when they stop caring about extra $$$... oh really?00:46
AStormonce that happens (a true unlimited data plan with enough bandwidth behind it to make it fast enough), there will be no way back ;p00:46
ShadowJKWell US will always be years behind others when they've got such good lock-ins to limit competition :)00:47
ShadowJKI think it has happened here00:47
AStormwhat lock-ins?00:47
AStormit's same in EU00:47
AStormShadowJK: no, they dropped the "unlimited" part00:47
ShadowJKWell they've got different frequencies and different tech so it's difficult to make a phone that works on them all00:47
AStormvery very quickly00:47
ShadowJKthey haven't dropped it here yet00:48
AStormso it felt more like a marketing move to me00:48
AStormyeah yeah00:48
AStormcheck if you have no transfer limit00:48
AStormunless the link is fairly slow... ;p00:48
AStormor number of users low00:48
ShadowJKIf I have, it's more than 30 gigs per month, which they claimed I did last month00:48
AStormhehe00:48
AStormconsider what would happen if people started using those connections as main ones00:49
ShadowJKPeople have already started doing that :)00:49
AStormthey likely won't anyway (since land-based are faster, lower latency and more reliable)00:49
AStormyes, started00:49
AStormthe question is, will some kind of "boom" happen00:49
*** ArSa has quit IRC00:51
*** luke-jr has quit IRC00:52
AStormwhether really large cell-phone data transfers become common00:52
AStorm(as in, say, monthly total)00:52
AStorm4G LTE is supposed to bring flat IP(v6?) architecture00:53
AStorm3GPP LTE actually, or 4G00:54
ShadowJKhm, in 2008, 10% of the .fi population has mobile internet subscribtion...00:57
ShadowJKand 30% used "mobile internet data services"00:57

AStormfinland is a small country and quite a special case01:03
AStormoh btw..01:03
AStorm"A data rate of at least 100 Mbit/s between any two points in the world,"01:03
AStormthis reminds me of a quote from Space Odyssey01:04

ShadowJKAStorm, special case how? :-)01:04
*** barnoid has quit IRC01:04
ShadowJKmaybe special in the way that we had competitive environment :/01:04
AStorm(corrupted)"He knew how to do it, but didn't know what it was good for. He'd think of something"01:04
AStorm;p01:04
AStormShadowJK: exactly that01:05
AStormand Finland has had mobile services with national range for how long in comparison?01:05
ShadowJKno national 3G coverage yet :D01:06
AStorm3G is one thing, I'm talking about voice01:06
AStormand then data (2G is ok there too)01:06
ShadowJKsince forever :)01:06
*** danilocesar has quit IRC01:06
ShadowJKThough it reached widespread use in mid 90s iirc01:07
*** herzi has quit IRC01:07
AStormsee, that's longer in most other countries I think01:07
AStorm*than in01:07
*** jofjdi has joined #maemo01:08
*** acouto has quit IRC01:08
ShadowJKYeah, but the infrastructure has to be rebuilt every 5-10 years anyway :)01:09
AStormno, most of it not.01:14
AStormusually it's a partial update01:14

kpeldepends on the technology01:18
*** pupnik64 has joined #maemo01:19
AStorm2G -> 3G -> 3G+ -> ...?01:21
AStormor rather, 2G -> 2.5G -> 3G -> 3G+ -> ...01:21
AStormyes, base stations have to be replaced01:21
kpelwhat exactly is 3g+? HSPA? HSPA+?01:21
AStormHSPA and HSPA+ is mostly same01:22
AStormbut it is HSPA.01:22
ShadowJKgsm -> gprs -> edge -> 3g -> hsdpa (in about 7 generations) -> hsupa -> hsdpa+01:22
kpelthere are quite a few extra features in hspa+ afaik01:22
ShadowJKAnd the backbone capacity and links to the cells msut be upgraded to ethernet, and the capacity must be constantly upgraded when bandwidth is growing 10X per year on cellphone networks :)01:23
*** chenca has quit IRC01:23
kpelyes, it's a lot of trouble01:23
AStormnot that much really, more a question of money and how often you upgrade01:23
ShadowJKIt's also a question of trouble :)01:24
*** milos_ has joined #maemo01:24
AStormin a good modular design, the radio part would be replaced01:24
AStormbandwidth can wait01:24
*** blade_runner has quit IRC01:24
AStormsince users won't upgrade their devices fast enough01:24
AStormthen you do a lumped bandwidth update01:24
ShadowJKI mean total bandwidth use, not individual user's maximum speed01:25
javispedroStskeeps: wow01:25
*** LinuxCode has quit IRC01:25
AStormtotal bandwidth is unimportant01:25
AStormwhat is important is peak bandwidth01:25
javispedroStskeeps: glx?01:26
AStormand maybe RMS bandwidth ;p01:26
Stskeepsjavispedro: mesa on virtualbox01:26
Stskeeps(sw render)01:26
javispedroStskeeps, I mean, opengl instead of ogles. Can you test if the color swap bug appears?01:26
Stskeepsyes, it's instead of ogles01:26
ShadowJKAStorm, peak to trough is only factor of 2 or so and year on year growth was a factor of 11 2006-2007, for example :)01:26
AStormbut what was the baseline for that growth? :p01:26
AStormnote that you can't extrapolate trends too far01:27
ShadowJKyeah it was about 5X 2007-2008 :)01:27
AStormotherwise car sales would still be increasing 10% per year ;p01:27
AStorm(to 200%)01:27
ShadowJK99% of traffic produced by computers not (smart)phones :)01:28
AStormthis is the useful modelling tool: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gompertz_curve01:28
javispedroStskeeps: but of course, very nice :) I hope the transitions are resolution independent :)01:28
kpelAStorm: out of curiosity, how many do you think are the differences between hspa and hspa+?01:30
AStormMIMO support.01:30
AStorm(on the receiver side)01:31
AStormsome firmware upgrade on the operator side01:31
kpeldownlink yes01:31
Stskeepsjavispedro: think transitions are copyrighted and we really dont want them01:31
mavhcthe software is what changes the bandwidth used though, noone sends videos unless sending videos is easy01:31
AStormmavhc: true, and even if it is easy, no one sends because there's not enough targets01:32
AStormagain, Gompertz curve ;p01:32
kpelAStorm: so if you add MIMO to 3GPP release 6 you have HSPA+?01:33
AStormkpel: let me check01:33
AStormMIMO needs communication between cells01:33
AStormbut that is likely already there01:33
kpelit adds overhead01:33
*** lardman|afk is now known as lardman|home01:33
AStormyou need 64QAM support.01:34
AStormlikely a firmware update on most well-designed sending devices01:34
kpelbut i find it hard to believe that MIMO is the only difference01:34
AStormMIMO and 64QAM.01:34
AStorm(new modulation)01:34
kpelat L1 maybe01:34
AStormyes.01:34
kpelthere are more features in the rest of the stack01:35
*** alecrim has quit IRC01:35
AStormnah.01:35
AStorman *optional*, but reommended feature is IP support01:35
AStorm*recommended01:35
AStormflat IP.01:35
kpelthat's just one thing. There have been quite a few changes since rel601:36
AStormminor really.01:36
AStormsoftware upgrades01:36
kpelwell, maemo is software. is it a minor component?01:37
AStormnot *this* software01:37
AStormreceiver firmware01:37
kpeljust because you make changes in the baseband it doesn't mean the changes are minor01:37
AStormyou can get partial HSPA+ with one receiver01:37
AStormjust supporting 64QAM01:37
AStormthat may or may not be easy.01:38
AStorm(depending on the receiver used)01:38
pupnik64Maemo users who want to listen to lectures speeches might be interested in 'yatm' - can play back mp3/ogg/speex at faster and slower rates keeping the pitch steady.01:38
AStormblah.01:39
pupnik64maybe autobuilder it - console app01:39
AStormmay I point those users to sox?01:39
AStorm;p01:39
*** b-man16 has quit IRC01:39
AStormit has time scaling effects as well01:39
AStormwrite a simple script and you have yatm01:39
pupnik64no01:40
AStorm(unless yatm has some higher quality or DSP accelerated effect, that is)01:40
javispedrosox supports mp3?01:40
AStormsure it does.01:40
pupnik64you fail to grasp the essence of tai quan leep01:40
*** jofjdi has joined #maemo01:41
pupnik64approach so that you may learn01:41
pupnik64<boot to the head>01:41
AStormthat's why I don't approach ;p01:41
*** myosound has joined #maemo01:41
pupnik64ever heard that comedy skit?01:41
pupnik64very funny - 'boot to the head'01:41
AStormthe question is, why nobody used sox enough01:41
pupnik64anyway the sound quality of resampling time-stretch sucks01:41
AStormit even has fairly easy libsox01:41
pupnik64what you want is to slowdown/speedup playback within the decoder01:42
AStormpupnik64: resampling? it's not resampling01:42
*** luke-jr__ has joined #Maemo01:42
pupnik64because that way you don't get stuttering effects01:42
*** angasule has joined #maemo01:42
AStormno, you can't simply "slowdown" playback in the decoder01:42
AStormthat would lower the pitch01:42
pupnik64hahah01:42
AStormyou have to cut the signal into pieces then reconstruct missing data (somehow)01:42
pupnik64wanna bet?01:42
pupnik64how much?01:42
AStormthen repaste the pieces01:43
pupnik64bet you whatever you want you're wrong01:43
javispedroyatm seems to cut some parts of the tune01:43
AStormpupnik64: show me.01:43
javispedroat least a constant beat gets turned into an irregular one01:43
AStormI mean, the code.01:43
*** luke-jr_ has quit IRC01:43
pupnik64mp3 and ogg represent sound in the frequency domain01:43
*** b-man16 has joined #maemo01:43
AStormpartially, yes01:43
pupnik64in a certain slice of time, they store the various intensities of frequencies from 20 to 20khz01:43
pupnik64or something like that01:43
AStormyou can't just take the windowed signal and move apart the windows01:44
AStormyou have to regenerate signal between them01:44
AStormthat's resampling.01:44
AStormso you still get to time-stretch the signa.01:44
AStorm+l01:44
pupnik64each snapshot in the frequency domain can be visualized as a series of sine wave oscillators at different intensities01:44
pupnik64i.e. you have a whole series of sine wave oscillators from 20hz to 20khz01:44
AStormI know how DFT works, thanks.01:44
AStorm:)01:45
*** VDVsx has quit IRC01:45
AStormor MDCT actually.01:45
*** _jason6980 has quit IRC01:45
pupnik64if you let them 'ring on' you can let as much time go by as you want before adjusting them to the next frame's intensities01:45
AStormor even windowed MDCT which is what MP3 does.01:45
pupnik64and the pitches stay the same01:45
AStormso you stretch window transitions01:45
pupnik64right01:45
AStormthat will sound uneven and horrible.01:45
AStorm:)01:45
javispedrothat may be what this thing does01:45
pupnik64much better than resampling and pasting different echoes over each other01:46
AStormit might work for noise-like signals... sometimes01:46
AStormwhich means speech01:46
AStormno no, not *over* each other01:46
AStormbetween01:46
*** johnsq has quit IRC01:46
pupnik64no, you get a perfectly smooth transition from one frame to another01:46
AStormthe idea is that you don't really resample01:46
pupnik64completely unlike chopping-up the wave into 30ms frames and overlapping them01:46
javispedroa constant beeping "accelerated" throught this tool sounds like random beeping01:46
pupnik64that is what sox does01:46
pupnik64and mplayer01:46
AStormyou do something like: take the samples you have, run a ZOH between (or some better interpolation), lowpass01:46
*** briglia has quit IRC01:47
AStormuh, cut into pieces01:47
AStormall samples.01:47
AStormsince MP3 is pre-cut...01:47
SpeedEvilpupnik64: It doesn't work right - you need to rewindow the signals.01:47
*** luke-jr has joined #Maemo01:47
AStormyou *could* use that knowledge to improve quality some01:47
SpeedEvilpupnik64: And it's more complex than that as you're screwing with it.01:47
AStormnot a whole lot though01:47
SpeedEvilBut it's not something that's sane to put into each codec - it would be a lot of hairiness in each codec.01:48
SpeedEvilvs one filter.01:48
pupnik64hmm01:48
*** renato has quit IRC01:48
SpeedEvilYou fundamentally cannot achieve a perfect pitch shifting.01:49
*** promulo has quit IRC01:49
SpeedEvilInformation will always be lost.01:49
AStormor missing.01:49
AStorm(and guessed, oh I mean interpolated)01:50
SpeedEvilyeah.01:50
AStormSoX tempo effect does a smart thing for shortening01:50
SpeedEvilIf you're speeding up time, youhave to merge adjacent windows01:50
*** jauaor has joined #maemo01:50
AStormin that it uses good overlap-based check01:50
SpeedEvilIf you're slowing it down, you need to duplicate01:50
SpeedEvilYou'll always have wierd phase effects though.01:50
AStormpicking right samples to merge using least squares fit01:50
pupnik64 an analogue would be zooming-in on a jpeg. because a function is describing the color curve, you get automatic interpolation01:51
SpeedEvilyeah.01:51
AStormSpeedEvil: not really, esp. not for integer sample ratios01:51
SpeedEvilAStorm: I mean for arbitrary ratios.01:51
AStormarbitrary ratios won't have phase distortion either in a good filter design01:52
SpeedEvilI don't think you can avoid it in the multi-tone case01:52
AStormbut that doesn't change the fact that the data has been interpolated.01:52
SpeedEvilSure you can in the single tone.01:52
SpeedEvilI mean phase distortion at the joins01:52
ShadowJKyatm doesn't slow down or speed up anything in the decoder.01:52
AStormmulti-tone is possible too, but interpolation is guess-work01:52
AStormyou can either copy a window of the signal (likely short)01:53
AStormor interpolate01:53
AStormboth solutions are guesses.01:53
SpeedEvilUnless it's a midi file.01:53
AStormcopy (+ lowpass) will work better for multi-tone likely01:53

AStormthat's why they could give 2M unmetered02:33
AStormsince few people will have access anyway ;p02:33
ShadowJKExcept there was one base station 10km away with edge. If I covered the phone with hands, the signal would degrade and it would have to switch to another cell02:33

AStormhuh.02:34
AStormI had a funny problem once, in the mountains02:34
AStormthe phone saw 2 cells with similar signal02:34
AStormand switched between them02:34
AStormsince it's HSPA and not HSPA+ (which sports cell coordination), the connection broke on each switch02:35

lardman|homeI guess that's the idea mind you02:45
javispedroSpeedEvil: agreed. which is why that means "no cell data" for me.02:45

javispedro(actually, I then steal the bandwidth from my alma mater ;) )02:46
AStormit will be best if your ISP uses a mobile-friendly congestion protocol as well02:46
javispedroi'm not used to tcp parlance. "sender" as in sender (who emits data) or "sender" as in host?02:48

javispedroAStorm: your _upload_ flow.02:51
SpeedEvilMy connection to my favourite mud sucked in 1992. It had lots of packet loss - 25% or so02:51
SpeedEvilI simply hacked in a linear backoff not exponential02:52
AStormjavispedro: which means your download too02:52
SpeedEvilOr linear after 3s - I forgot.02:52

SpeedEvilPacket loss of >30% or so and you're guaranteed exponential backoff to silly proportions some of the time02:54
AStormSpeedEvil: even a burst of total packet loss02:54
javispedroand I agree with that.02:54
AStormand that tends to happen on cell nets02:54
javispedrobut I don't see why enabling Veno on a host will magically help its download speeds in an apreciable way02:55
javispedroso yes. acks will now flow. but there's still 30% packet loss. the receive window will suck.,02:55
AStormyes, if you use Reno02:56
AStormif you use Veno, it shouldn't scale the window down02:56

javispedroyou mean Interfaces!03:37
tush726has anyone tried a fedora installation for the SDK?03:37
AStormjavispedro: not exactly03:37
AStormI mean classes that implement many interfaces at once03:38
javispedrogenerics is that List<String> stuff in java parlance03:38
AStormin other words, mixins03:38
javispedroimplementing multiple interfaces has been since the first days I think03:38
AStormyes, and it doesn't interact with interfaces, so I can't have a class looking like a generic List<foo>03:38
*** hannesw_ has quit IRC03:39
AStormso the usual workaround is not using generics there, but generics based on interfaces03:40
AStormlike, IList<foo> foo = bar03:41
AStormthat is not possible.03:41
AStormwe have to thank type erasure for that.03:41
Firebirdtemplates?03:41
javispedroi don't follow yo03:41
javispedroyou say I can't make class A implement List<B> ?03:42
javispedroiirc I can.03:42
AStormyes, you can't.03:42
AStormsince List<B> will be erased to List03:42
javispedroyes. and?03:42
javispedrothat will happen at code generation time.03:42
AStormso I can do IList<int> blah = yourlist (which is List<foo>)03:42
javispedrothe compiler won't let you.03:43
AStormgenerics don't interact well with interfaces03:43
javispedrounless you're in some weird compatibility mode.03:43

javispedrobut either way I don't see what type erasure has to do with that. in fact, to get over that absurd limitation I could just create an extra class C extending B. heh. I guess those are the "hacks" you were talking about.03:51
javispedrolol this exact "hack" is banned in the java spec.03:53
AStormexcept creating a derivation tree is incompatible with mixins03:54
AStorm:)03:54
AStormsince then you don't have a mixin anymore, you have a class that is derived from all the classes implementing interfaces.03:55

johnxyeah, I heard they made it into a mobile phone platform :)07:16
johnx(no worries about the off-topicness when it's so quiet07:16
zelrikriandoThey asked the guy who did a popular rom to stop doing it07:17
zelrikriandoso basically they gave a huge kick in the custom android roms07:17
johnxwas he redistributing proprietary code against license agreements to lots of people?07:17
zelrikriandoSo yeah, they claim that gmail,youtube and stuff are proprietary07:18
zelrikriandobut he was distributing it on phones that had licenses...07:18
microlithif they're proprietary, only google can distribute them07:19
johnxyeah, I'm sure the license didn't allow redistribution07:19
microlitheven if the person who uses the rom has a license07:19
zelrikriandoThat kinda sucks though07:19
zelrikriandoit s against the spirit of android07:19
microlithsee the devkit with devphone, setup requires you to let the installer pull some libraries off the phone07:19
johnxwonder what the situation would be if someone tried that with maemo :)07:19
luke-jrzelrikriando: Android was never free07:20
zelrikriandois there proprietary parts in maemo07:20
johnxyup07:20
luke-jrMaemo is probably a bit more free than Android, but still not completely07:20
zelrikriandoso no custom roms for that one either hu07:20
johnxa couple of the apps and strangely the internet connection daemon07:20
johnxbut maemo gets more free with each release07:20
luke-jrzelrikriando: Not out of the box, no07:20
johnxand there is a distro based on the free parts of maemo, called mer07:21
luke-jrzelrikriando: Mer aims to be compatible with the Maemo packages07:21
luke-jrand Gentoo can sortof make use of some too07:21
zelrikriandoso of course, lots of people are mad at Google (me kinda too since I use custom roms)07:21
johnxnokia has been pretty friendly about figuring out some way to redistribute the proprietary bits with mer so that people can keep using the non-free bits, but it takes cooperation, not just going off and redistributing without asking07:22
microlithno real reason to be, and the sdk is open so they should get cracking on replacements, or figure out how to transition the apps07:22
zelrikriandomicrolith: it's pretty hard to keep a good experience without google apps07:23
luke-jrI am 100% anti-proprietary, but I wouldn't violate copyright law.07:23
luke-jrzelrikriando: you replace them, that's how.07:23
microlithzelrikriando: yes, but that's not google's problem07:23
zelrikriandohmm07:23
luke-jror, like microlith probably meant, provide a legal way to migrate them07:23
zelrikriandoI use all those apps07:23
microlithluke-jr: yes07:23
zelrikriandoI got that phone because I make heavy use of google apps07:23
johnxusing proprietary apps often requires giving up some freedoms07:24
luke-jrzelrikriando: it's quite possible to make a desktop app that downloads apps from the phone and reuploads them after you've flashed07:24
johnxthough it sounds like a tool to extract the apps that could be distributed to people who already have the phone would be totally legally unassailable07:24
zelrikriandoyeah there are workarounds07:24
luke-jrthen you could download those Google apps, flash, and upload them to the new ROM07:24
zelrikriandohopefully07:24

luke-jr-.-07:25
zelrikriandoI think it would be a mess to remove07:26
zelrikriandoespecially the google search07:26
johnx"mess to remove"? well their open source code builds into a ROM, right? the question is just adding the proprietary bits back into it (or creating free replacements)07:27

johnxluke-jr, did they give you the schematics for it?07:40
luke-jrjohnx: irrelevant.07:40
luke-jrI'm not asking for schematics (yet)07:41
luke-jrjust specifications to use the hardware.07:41
johnxbut you can't make pushing the 5 dial a 707:41
johnxthat's not open07:41
luke-jrjohnx: my phone has no software.07:41
luke-jr:p07:41
johnxso you don't care about modifying the basic call-making properties?07:42
luke-jrsure I do. eventually.07:42

RST38hlcuk: Right now we have Nokia's own player (half baked at best), MediaBox (with confusing UI), Canola (with 20+ second startup time)13:54
RST38hlcuk: And a few more, written in Python and not working very well13:55
* lcuk2 nods, but i actually like the nokia media player13:55
* lcuk2 is all for simplicity13:55

lcuk2yeah, media players are like hello world13:56
lcuk2yeah i know13:56
lcuk2good media players are rare13:56

Khertanmaybe to be available for the two hands16:36
asj_wrk-glass: but normally it's so small it's a strech for either hand16:37

lcuk2have you considered how you could do it on the nokia devices - draw your nice models whilst sat on the bus etc16:50
glasslcuk2: a bit, but a keyboard and a mouse with buttons are essential to the workflow, to rotate around the stuff and so forth16:51
keesjthat is what I do most lcuk's note taking progam16:52
lcuk2thats only because the software is designed as such - and dont get me wrong, desktop sw is very well suited16:52
