GeneralAntilles. . .00:09
GeneralAntillesWhy would TI layout a keyboard on their calculator in ABC. . .00:10
GeneralAntillesWhat happened to QWERTY?00:10
ajalkaneGeneralAntilles: QWERTY is quite illogical and a relic from the mechanical typewriters. ABC etc. makes more sense. Surely TI is a sensible company.00:11
GeneralAntillesQWERTY is illogical00:12
GeneralAntilles(which is why I use Dvorak on devices where it makes sense)00:12
GeneralAntillesHowever, my thumbs are already trained for QWERTY00:12
GeneralAntillesRetraining for ABC sucks.00:12
ajalkaneDVORAK is tuned to english languages. The only logical, cross-language solution, is ABC.00:13
javispedroworse is better00:13
GeneralAntillesajalkane, yes, well, I'm not planning on using anything but English on this thing.00:21
ajalkaneI guess your complaint then should be "What happened to DVORAK" :-P00:22
GeneralAntillesI'm not asking silly questions. :)00:23
GeneralAntillesGiven that the target audience for these devices are students aged 12-2100:23
ajalkaneSeriously speaking, I'm kinda terrified of as a touch-typist that QWERTY layouts might be getting into the bin.00:23
GeneralAntillesand their PRIMARY mode of communication is through QWERTY thumb keyboards, well. . . .00:24
GeneralAntillesThere's no way QWERTY is going anywhere anytime soon.00:24
ajalkaneWith all the new pads and smartphones etc., and younger generations not needing such typing, it may be in 25 years QWERTY is a relic00:24
javispedroajalkane: until the day Steve Jobs comes out of retirement and ships the iKeyboard with the AWESOME layout QWERTY is not going away00:24
*** smoku has joined #harmattan00:25
GeneralAntillesMan, how awesome would it be to be able to type awesome with one hand?00:25
*** zarlino has quit IRC00:25
ajalkaneWell, it's not going away overnight. But one generation is enough if they manage to push personal computers into fringe with all these new shitty replacements.00:25
GeneralAntillesBy the time PCs are gone we'll all have retinal implants.00:26
javispedrowith the AWESOME layout can also type incredible, beautiful, unbelievable, great, amazing, better, and easier with just one finger!00:26
ajalkaneI sure as hell want to be hacking away on cutting edge hardware/software by my 90's on my retinal implants.00:26
GeneralAntillesFunny side-note: Deus Ex: HR has an awful lot of PCs floating around when retinal implants are cheap and accessible.00:26
SpeedEviljavispedro: That is coming. Technology to let you enter a whole word with one keystroke00:27
GeneralAntillesjavispedro, do you remember that Onion ivdeo?00:27
SpeedEviljavispedro: The vkbd easily fits on a 43" display00:27
GeneralAntilleshttp://www.theonion.com/video/apple-introduces-revolutionary-new-laptop-with-no,14299/00:27
rm_workrofl yes, the one button laptop00:28
rm_worki loved that00:28
alteregoDONE IT!00:28
javispedroyeah, had to see it again =)00:28
alteregoSweet, got qt multimedia -> zbar decoding bar codes :D00:29
javispedroSpeedEvil: hopefully a mainstream tech by the time I get that 43'' screen on my phone ;)00:29
GeneralAntillesI love the pricing structure00:29
GeneralAntilles$2,598 for 8GB00:30
ajalkanehehe, onion ones in a while manages to get a great laugh00:30
GeneralAntilles$9,596 for 40GB00:30
GeneralAntillesajalkane, just once in a while?00:30
GeneralAntilleshttp://www.theonion.com/video/sony-releases-new-stupid-piece-of-shit-that-doesnt,14309/00:30
SpeedEvilAlso - meh - paywalls.00:30
alteregoSeems to be working much better now too ..00:30
SpeedEvilI mean - I like the onion and all - but not enough to go without fruit for a month.00:31
ajalkaneokay, onion makes me laugh more often than slashdot00:31
ajalkaneare all the funny stuff nowadays in videos in onion? :)00:31
GeneralAntillesMore of them.00:32
ajalkaneI feel old.00:32
GeneralAntillesThe print stuff is still good, though.00:32
GeneralAntillesLotta of it US-centric.00:32
ajalkaneI remember Onion was quite hilarious a decade or something like that ago. It's still good, but I rarely remember to read it.00:33
DocScrutinizerajalkane: Scotty:"computer!" <no answer> Pavel: "use the mouse, Scotty!"   Scotty grabs mouse, holds it like a microphone, says in stern voice "Computer!"...00:34
alteregoHe actually says "Hello Computer" :)00:35
javispedroIt's sad that's one of the few examples of someone getting right how computer interfaces change =)00:35
alteregoThat part always cracks me up00:35
alteregoHrm, now I need to generate my own QR code, hook this stuff to qml00:36
alteregoAnd initiate an offline app caching00:36
alteregoThen I have app download from qr code working :)00:37
DocScrutinizerand hell, is any of us faster than Scotty on that (from his POV) prehistoric keyboard, when he sketches transparent Aluminium in <15s, with ~7342 keystrokes/minute?00:40
* SpeedEvil looks at his boule of transparent aluminium.00:42
DocScrutinizeractually it seems like his first 5 keystrokes reconfigure the UI of that program into hyper-shortcut mode00:42
SpeedEvil(sapphire)00:42
ajalkaneThey don't make Scotties like that anymore, RIP.00:42
DocScrutinizeryeah :-/00:42

DocScrutinizer51you know true 3D-barcode is still one of the most promising storage technologies of the future?01:05
ajalkaneBut if the holographic principle holds true, maybe a 2d representations is the most promising approach of deep understanding of the 3D-barcode representation... It boggles the mind01:11
*** berndhs has joined #harmattan01:11
*** eman has joined #harmattan01:14
DocScrutinizer51no, the pseudo-3D of 2D holographics is just a special kind of magnifying glass. True 3D storage uses holographic techniques on volumetric storae media01:16
ajalkaneI'm not sure which comes first, me in a wheelchair or that tech.01:17
ajalkaneActually me in a wheel chair is too easy a guess. But have humans visited Mars before 3D storage techs, that's a good puzzle.01:18

SpeedEvil3D storage exists now.01:32
alteregoLooks like I*mve got a fair amount of work to do if I want access to raw video data, live using QtMobility.01:46

faenilso any news since 3 days ago?11:43
djszapifaenil: everybody got a new software, but no more left :)11:43
faenilI had uni exams on 5th and 6th so I've been away :)11:43
faenildjszapi: aahahhah11:43
faenildjszapi: u joking, right? lol11:44
faeniljavispedro: I am ready to test out the radio thing :)11:44
faenilI have read the forum post, but I'll wait for you if you need anything to be done11:45
djszapifaenil: he is not here ?11:45
faenillol, did not even check, he's always here :D11:45
faenilwell, I'm going to fix my bicycle then :) cya later :)11:46
hiemanshudjszapi: we are out of new software? BS, they haven't even started with new software :P11:50
Venemodjszapi is particularly jokey about new sw, especially when I'm also on this channel :P11:51
fluxvenemo, so it could be said.. you're djszapi's muse?11:53
Venemoflux, I think he got mad because I said about a thousand times on this channel:11:54
* Venemo wants new software for N95011:54
Venemo:P11:54
djszapi"C++0x will introduce the keyword constexpr, which allows the user to guarantee that a function or object constructor is a compile-time constant." -> mmm, this is good.11:54
Venemolamdas are better11:55
fluxdjszapi, unfortunately the functions allows are quite limited. iirc recursion is prohibited ;).11:58
flux(s/allows/allowed/)11:59
*** vladest has quit IRC11:59
djszapiflux: I have never really seen a need for that, just that what it actually solves.11:59
fluxdjszapi, it would limit evaluating actual algorithms involving looping during compile time12:00
*** vladest has joined #harmattan12:00
flux..of course, you can still use template magic for many things12:00
djszapialso, there is nothing written like that on the wikipage.12:00
djszapinot that I could put any rationale behind that claim.12:01
fluxindeed it doesn't seem to mention lack of recursion, but I'm still pretty sure that limitation has been mentioned elsewhere12:02
fluxI guess harmattan platform won't see constexpr for a while, though?-)12:03
djszapialso, templates were also improved a lot, for instance the external template anyways.12:03

artemmneed some place for file storage22:37
MohammadAGif it's temporary use CacheLocation22:37
artemmnot sure how temporary it is22:37
artemmI may need to keep them for a day or a week22:37
MohammadAGyeah, use DataLocation for your purpose22:37
npm these aren't local settings /home/npm/.config/google-chrome/Default/Local Storage22:38
artemmIf I figure I want history22:38
MohammadAGit's actually just /home/$user/.cache22:38
artemmwell, I'll start with what Qt gives22:38
MohammadAGI'm not sure where data location is22:38
MohammadAGartemm, just a tip22:38
MohammadAGI noticed this after hours of trying22:38
MohammadAGQDesktopServices returns a string22:38
MohammadAGthe directory won't exisst22:38
artemmoh22:39
artemmthanks22:39
artemmwill keep in mind22:39

artemmgot to leave now22:39
npmand qtcreator stores files in .config too /home/npm/.config/Nokia/qtcreator/generic-highlighter22:39
MohammadAGQString dir = QDesktopServices::storageLocation(QDesktopServices::DataLocation);22:39
MohammadAGQDir dirObject = QDir(dir);22:39
npmso i'm not going to change my code to stick stuff in .local/share/<appname> :-)22:39
MohammadAGif (!dirObject.exists())22:39
MohammadAGdirObject.mkpath(dir);22:39
artemmgot it22:40
MohammadAGnpm, .config is used by QSettings22:40
artemmwill use .config if data location is bad22:40
MohammadAGno, that's for QSettings :P22:40
npmso will an app be in violation if it stores all it's local stuff in ~/.config ??22:41
MohammadAGno, since Gtk apps use that sometimes22:41
MohammadAGbut .config is naturally for inis, not images22:41
MohammadAGit's just wrong22:41
npmok, so i guess i won't worry about it being for qsettings22:41
MohammadAGI'm not sure if it's backed up22:42
MohammadAGif it is, I expect users to have larger backups :p22:42
npmi'm not thinking about images as much as say sql database storage related to app22:42

*** infobot has quit IRC22:43
MohammadAGcuteTube does that22:43
npmexactly the app i'm thinking of22:43
npm~/.config/cutetube/Databases/63db502ea46fc7fe74e01e615d2c00d6.sqlite22:43
MohammadAGthough I'm not sure why cuteTube uses sqlite for settings22:43
MohammadAGoh, could be usernames22:44
berndhsthe xdg standard is well accepted, putting things in .config and .local, and also widely ignored :)22:44
npmMohammadAG: yes, it stores user/passwords for one22:46
npmsee http://nielsmayer.com/meego/qml/qmltube_1_11_2.tar.gz http://nielsmayer.com/meego/qml/qmltube_1_11_2.i586.rpm http://nielsmayer.com/meego/qml/qmltube_1.11.1_armel.deb22:49
