| DocScrutinizer05 | who maintains playlists? there's just one playlist I use: the queue | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| DocScrutinizer05 | however YMMV | 00:00 |
| Sicelo | L29Ah: try oscp | 00:03 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I find it highly annoying that most players don't have convenient and smart management of the queue. Like not only removing songs from queue but alsi inserting, or moving a song up/down in queue. Or setting a stop-point after a song (*in* a song?) with either hard pasue or fadeout | 00:03 |
| Sicelo | DocScrutinizer05: do you have an example of one that does all that? | 00:08 |
| Wizzup | mpd | 00:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | err, amarok I think did most of it, back when it was OK | 00:09 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | amaroK sucks in that it never empties the queue after a song has been played (or after the 12th song after that song starts playing) | 00:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ok, it's just a hit of a button to clear complete playlist, but often that's also not what you want to do | 00:12 |

| Oksana | (magnet missing in n900's cover?) My magnet separated from the leg, but still is magnetically-attached to the other side. So the leg waves around freely which is a tad annoying. I am not sure which glue would be strong enough (in tiny quantities) to put this tiny magnet back in place. | 01:55 |
| L29Ah | cyanoacrylate should do the job | 01:58 |
| drathir | Oksana: mine soldered by normal fast one but needed a lot of patience... | 01:58 |
| svetlana | Hm. I didn't realise one can use a soldering process against magnet and plastic. | 01:59 |
| drathir | bc needed to clean both parts... | 01:59 |
| drathir | svetlana: soldering mean put together/catch together... | 01:59 |
| jabis | same superglue they use to stich your face if you accidentally bump into a fist :D (some model airplane superglue without the additives that melt plastic) | 02:01 |
| drathir | and will be really useful tooth-pick and long nails ^^ | 02:02 |
| * Oksana doesn't exactly know what is "normal fast glue", but will try to do it... Not the most urgent thing to do. But given how any new phone will arrive only in q4/2015 (optimistically) or q1/2016 , I have to maintain this one in working condition until then | 02:02 | |
| drathir | yea superglue one... | 02:02 |
| drathir | Oksana: ^ | 02:03 |
| *** Kilroo has joined #maemo | 02:03 | |
| drathir | Oksana: not use 2part one/mixed ones glues...s | 02:03 |
| jabis | one drop, spread with a toothpick, stick the magnet, voila | 02:04 |
| jabis | also let it stick for some good hours before throwing it into the floor etc | 02:05 |
| Oksana | Should I put some pressure onto it, while it is drying-sticking? | 02:05 |
| jabis | can't think of anything that wouldn't press out the adhesive out from inbetween the elements, but surely something to keep the magnet from moving and in contact with the glue won't hurt | 02:07 |
| drathir | first glue place by tooth-pick on the cover plasyic part... i toyched then keeping magnetic part at nail... when it touch the glue will keep to plastic need to sacrifice nail and take too much glue wich go out by clean tooth-pick... | 02:08 |
| jabis | what drathir said ^ | 02:08 |
| drathir | and at plastic not really nuch glue needed enough is touch the place bt tooth-pick a little smashed in glue... | 02:09 |
| *** Kabouik has joined #maemo | 02:10 | |

| Oksana | Okay, steel patch (still, I am lucky that it does not get lost; it has lost some of its blackness, but otherwise it stays not-lost for weeks) | 03:21 |
| *** Kabouik__ has quit IRC | 03:22 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | apply some small amount of cyanoacrylate to the cleaned cavity where the magnet (or in your case the steel patch) belongs. within 20 s max place the small object (steel patch) into place. Do not move after 0.5s, so you better make damn sure to place it into right position on first take. use some scotch tape (sticky side) to hold the small object, this has two benefits: you can properly grab the whole thing, and superglue won't stick to | 03:22 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | the scotchtape glue so easy removal of scotchtape | 03:22 |
| *** Ariadeno has quit IRC | 03:23 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | apply some moderate pressure to keep object in place, for maybe 10 or 20s. Really moderate or even gentle! Do not move object while glue cures. cyanoacrylate cures with air humidity, so blowing at the whole thing will speed up curing | 03:24 |
| *** Kabouik has joined #maemo | 03:25 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | don't be mistaken, even superglue takes several minutes before it reaches final strength of joint | 03:25 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | so don't remove the scotchtape too early or you'll pull out the magnet or whatever object with it | 03:26 |

| jester | hello world | 08:03 |
| jester | i am facing quite a curious problem on my n900 | 08:03 |
| Luke-Jr | which one? | 08:04 |
| jester | i have the cssu thumb installed and everything works great except | 08:04 |
| jester | yappari cant tell if there is an internet connection or not | 08:04 |
| Luke-Jr | nhoi | 08:05 |
| jester | also, the FAP says network error twice before updating catalogues | 08:05 |
| jester | although it ends up working fine in the end | 08:05 |
| Luke-Jr | my problem is that phone call recording uses too much CPU and so it makes the actual call impossible :< | 08:05 |
| jester | ah, which software are you using to record the phone calls ? | 08:05 |

| *** L29Ah has left #maemo | 08:43 | |
| Luke-Jr | jester: dunno; someone here suggested I change software when the one that used to work stopped working, and since that replacement never worked either I never learned its name well | 08:45 |
| Luke-Jr | seems to just be a pulseaudio problem to me. | 08:45 |
| *** Roth has quit IRC | 08:46 | |
| jester | Luke-Jr, I was going to suggest using a replacement as well, its either a software issue or the pulseaudio one. But if one software works fine for everyone except you, its certainly a pulseaudio issue | 08:50 |
| Luke-Jr | jester: you know something that works? :p | 08:51 |
| KotCzarny | jester, dont use fap | 08:51 |
| KotCzarny | ~fam | 08:51 |
| infobot | fapman is probably Faster Application Manager, a frontend for apt which uses own repositories catalog, and shouldn't be used to do system upgrades (like CSSU), or actually for anything since ~speedyHAM. It also does "apt-get autoremove" after every operation, by default. In short, it's been identified as source of system corruption and thus deprecated, or see ~hamvsfam | 08:51 |
| KotCzarny | ~speedyham | 08:51 |
| infobot | hmm... speedyham is 30 times faster than HAM http://maemo.merlin1991.at/cssu/community-devel/pool/free/h/hildon-application-manager/hildon-application-manager_2.2.73-2_armel.deb | 08:51 |
| Luke-Jr | (otoh, I suppose another possibility is that the eMMC is getting slower?) | 08:51 |
| KotCzarny | its also in cssu-t | 08:52 |
| jester | I have never tried recording calls, but theres orecchiette that can record calls and i think mydicto does that too | 08:52 |
| svetlana | Oksana: you recorded phone calls. What did you use? Luke-Jr's stuff uses too much cpu. | 08:54 |
| Luke-Jr | orecchiette is the most recent one I tried | 08:54 |
| * Oksana uses orecchiette , too. But, it has to be open before phone call, and you should check settings | 08:55 | |
| Luke-Jr | Oksana: when the call starts, CPU maxes out and the audio is unintelligible :/ | 08:55 |
| Luke-Jr | what about the settings? | 08:56 |
| jester | KotCzarny, i dont actually see speedyHAM in my applications, and yappari isnt already working ... do you think it may be because some of my repos be out of date? also im confused as to, what happened when the nokia repos went down, are the replacement packages there on the standard repo now ? | 08:56 |
| KotCzarny | jester its called hildon-application-manager in repos | 08:56 |
| KotCzarny | ~maemo-repos | 08:57 |
| infobot | it has been said that maemo-repos is http://wiki.maemo.org/Repository#List_of_Maemo_repositories | 08:57 |
| KotCzarny | there are few mirrors | 08:57 |
| jester | KotCzarny, thats the usual one, aka HAM hildon application manager | 08:57 |
| svetlana | Maybe depends on the length of the phone call (?). | 08:57 |
| jester | thanks for the link, id verify my repository information | 08:57 |
| KotCzarny | jester, could be, still, dont use fam, speedyham is good | 08:58 |
| jester | Luke-Jr, or maybe youre setting the recording quality too high | 08:58 |
| KotCzarny | (i've tried it few days ago and it was good) | 08:58 |
| Luke-Jr | svetlana: it's unusable from the moment I answer | 08:58 |
| KotCzarny | as for call recording, write as wav then encode after a call? | 08:58 |
| Luke-Jr | hmm | 08:58 |
| Maxdamantus | I'd try recording wave and piping it to `lzop -1` | 08:59 |
| svetlana | Wonder what version of sound stuff and of the orecchiette. Maybe some odd bug | 08:59 |
| Luke-Jr | all my older "worked great" cases were AAC | 08:59 |
| Luke-Jr | which I wouldn't have used in post-processing | 09:00 |
| *** ssvb has quit IRC | 09:00 | |

| Maxdamantus | You might want to check that it's not resampling or something. | 09:00 |
| KotCzarny | would be great to have photo button starting and ending recording | 09:03 |
| Luke-Jr | KotCzarny: meh, if it worked I'd just figure "record everything and edit later" | 09:04 |
| *** jester has quit IRC | 09:04 | |
| KotCzarny | that would be nice to have as a setting in phone config | 09:04 |
| KotCzarny | i wonder if it would be possible to listen for dbus events for call start amd end | 09:06 |
| KotCzarny | then it would be very simple to write recording feature | 09:06 |
| Luke-Jr | the software I used before orecchiette just automatically recorded everything | 09:06 |
| KotCzarny | s/amd/and/ | 09:07 |
| Luke-Jr | orecchiette does also, but needs to be started manually | 09:07 |
| Luke-Jr | as in, the program needs to be running in the background; and then it will record/stop automatically | 09:07 |
| Luke-Jr | meh, I need to get to bed :< | 09:08 |
| KotCzarny | write to orecchiette author? | 09:08 |

| Maxdamantus | Well, the hologram itself is obviously not as high-quality as the Nokia one. | 12:05 |
| Maxdamantus | (not the one in the video, the one currently in my phone) | 12:06 |
| * Maxdamantus doesn't have another device to record, so has to swap batteries. | 12:06 | |
| ceene | so, coderus has libaxolotl (needed to implement TextSecure on Yappari) ported to QT5 | 12:08 |
| ceene | of course our N900 doesn't feature QT5 but QT4 | 12:08 |

| Maxdamantus | That's pretty much the same with all computer packages. They pretty much all come with Windows, though there's a small chance it's not going to pretty much completely work with a Linux-based OS. | 12:54 |
| Maxdamantus | People who use Linux-based OSes aren't using magical hardware. | 12:55 |
| KotCzarny | userbase is bigger | 12:55 |
| Maxdamantus | (myself included) | 12:55 |
| Sicelo | i was thinking more about the booting part .. don't know what bootloaders are sitting in those tabs | 12:55 |
| KotCzarny | so is bigger chance of re of the drivers | 12:55 |
| Maxdamantus | Probably just the standard NTLDR, unless they've changed the name. | 12:57 |
| Sicelo | but i see now that since Intel Atom processor, we shouldn't have problems :) | 12:57 |
| Sicelo | why is no one putting in Linux on the Nokia N1 though? | 12:57 |
| KotCzarny | they may use some vendor quirks to be working | 12:57 |
| KotCzarny | i remember helping someone with chromebook | 12:57 |
| KotCzarny | and unloading one particular module froze whole thing | 12:58 |
| Sicelo | that's ARM though iirc | 12:58 |
| KotCzarny | still, vendors often lock their devices in nasty ways | 12:58 |
| Wizzup | samsung arm chromebook are not really locked | 12:59 |
| Wizzup | same for the nvidia-powered acer ones | 12:59 |
| M4rtinK | there is some work ongoing for running Fedora on bay-trail (x86) based tablets: https://www.happyassassin.net/fedlet-a-fedora-remix-for-bay-trail-tablets/ | 12:59 |
| Wizzup | actually all arm chromebooks are not locked | 13:00 |
| Wizzup | You can (re)flash | 13:00 |
| M4rtinK | Sicelo: N1 is x86 | 13:00 |
| Wizzup | there are always sources avail too | 13:00 |
| Sicelo | yes, i know. i mean the chromebook is ARM.. isn't it? | 13:02 |
| Sicelo | oh wow.. unlocked? hmm | 13:02 |
| Maxdamantus | I think a lot of Chromebooks are x86. | 13:02 |
| * Maxdamantus suspects they'd usually be x86. | 13:03 | |
| Maxdamantus | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromebook#Chromebook_models | 13:05 |
| Maxdamantus | So mostly x86. | 13:07 |
| Sicelo | cool. never realized that | 13:08 |
| * Maxdamantus wonders if that Rockchip thing at the end is x86. The Wikipedia page is of the company, which apparently mostly produces ARM chips, but entered a deal recently with Intel to expand their architecture in the mobile market or something. | 13:08 | |
| * Maxdamantus wants to see more desktops/laptops using non-x86. | 13:09 | |
| Maxdamantus | Intel doesn't, because they rely on their architecture being the de-facto desktop/laptop one. | 13:09 |
| * Maxdamantus wants more competition of technology rather than competition of legacy support. | 13:10 | |
| KotCzarny | that competition could mean more work for devs | 13:11 |
| KotCzarny | see physx | 13:11 |
| KotCzarny | and similar examples of proprietary technologies | 13:11 |
| Maxdamantus | I'm not sure what it being proprietary has to do with anything. | 13:14 |
| KotCzarny | that means that technology will be bound to particular hardware | 13:15 |
| KotCzarny | remember old sse vs 3dnow ? | 13:15 |
| Maxdamantus | but computers/OSes have been based on the same weird model for the last forty years or so. | 13:15 |
| Maxdamantus | where the computer/OS is responsible for emulating another computer for each program. | 13:16 |
| KotCzarny | unless patents and licensing comes into play | 13:16 |
| KotCzarny | and you cant emulate other things without paying royalties | 13:16 |
| Maxdamantus | If there's more fluidity between architectures there's probably slightly less of a chance of proprietary things taking over. | 13:17 |
| KotCzarny | have you ever thought why there are different architectures in the first place? | 13:18 |
| KotCzarny | this thing is still on | 13:18 |
| Maxdamantus | Because the PDP-11 wasn't optimal. | 13:18 |
| KotCzarny | in 2001 alpha intellectual property was sold to intel | 13:20 |
| KotCzarny | alpha was >>>>> intel | 13:20 |
| Maxdamantus | But Intel already pretty much has the monopoly over desktop computers by that point. | 13:21 |
| Maxdamantus | which is why they were able to swallow up potential competition like that. | 13:21 |
| Maxdamantus | s/has/had/ | 13:21 |
| KotCzarny | yes, but they really took off when ibm clone thing became popular | 13:21 |
| Maxdamantus | Intel is successful because it's successful enough to fight off competition. | 13:22 |
| KotCzarny | earlier they were just a small competitor | 13:22 |
| *** zGrr has quit IRC | 13:22 | |
| Maxdamantus | and what helps them is the current monolithic state of desktop computing. | 13:22 |
| Maxdamantus | it's all on Intel's architecture. | 13:23 |
| KotCzarny | its because people started using cheap clones and writing software for it | 13:23 |
| KotCzarny | ie. things became cheap enough for many people to use it | 13:24 |
| KotCzarny | and once userbase become significant, commercial solutions started popping out too | 13:25 |
| Wizzup | 12:03 * Maxdamantus suspects they'd usually be x86. | 13:31 |
| Wizzup | I don't think 'usually', but ok | 13:31 |
| *** zGrr has joined #maemo | 13:39 | |
| Maxdamantus | It apparently is usually. | 13:44 |
| Maxdamantus | unless by not usually you meant always. | 13:44 |
| Maxdamantus | but it's not always—there are a few ARM models, just not many. | 13:45 |
| Wizzup | It would be good to see numbers net to the models | 13:45 |
| Wizzup | next to* | 13:45 |
| Wizzup | also, seems the code names on wikipedia aren't acccurate | 13:46 |
| Wizzup | guess I should fix them... | 13:46 |
| Sicelo | numbers of? | 13:46 |
| Wizzup | sales | 13:47 |
| Wizzup | Otherwise you don't really know the distribution | 13:48 |
| kerio | meh it's likely a gaussian | 13:48 |
| kerio | :> | 13:48 |
| Wizzup | let's just say that in my circles, (/me counts....) one friend has an intel chromebook, the other 7 have (one or more) arm chromebooks | 13:49 |
| Wizzup | probably biased :) | 13:49 |

| Sicelo | further on the previous topic: so the problem with bootloaders that's plaguing smartphones .. is it "caused" by the ARM processors used, or we should just blame Android for example? | 14:44 |
| KotCzarny | both are vendor issue (hw or sw) | 14:45 |
| *** ssvb has quit IRC | 14:48 | |
| Sicelo | hmm, ok. currently N900 is still one of the relatively easy ones to boot your own OS. Very few other smartphones seem to have scored success. It sucks | 14:48 |
| *** _rd has quit IRC | 14:48 | |
| KotCzarny | it all starts with one | 14:49 |
| Sicelo | one? | 14:49 |
| KotCzarny | one device | 14:50 |
| KotCzarny | that gains user base and interest | 14:50 |
| Sicelo | it's been a long time already. N900 could boot your own linux "almost" from day one. | 14:51 |
| KotCzarny | im gonna do just that next week | 14:51 |
| KotCzarny | my third n900 should arrive today | 14:51 |
| Sicelo | there's a lot of interest also in samsung devices especially .. and i dare say those hackers are knowledgeable. success is another story though | 14:51 |
| * Sicelo has booted Arch, Debian, Nemo & SHR on his main N900 in the past :) | 14:52 | |
| Sicelo | very fulfilling. | 14:52 |
| KotCzarny | how about wince? | 14:52 |
| KotCzarny | :) | 14:52 |
| Sicelo | of course calls didn't work, but 3G did, and i was satisfied. | 14:52 |

| KotCzarny | show off | 14:53 |
| KotCzarny | :) | 14:53 |
| L29Ah | hmm, maybe i need to screw calls and use sip instead | 14:53 |
| L29Ah | i wonder if i'll suck on gprs tho | 14:53 |
| KotCzarny | maybe boot cut down maemo os just with dialer and calls engine? | 14:53 |
| KotCzarny | (in chroot or something) | 14:54 |
| Sicelo | L29Ah: regarding? | 14:54 |

| ceene | lol | 17:56 |
| Sicelo | it's them i was making a group for when i got that disconnection (i hope not ban, yet) | 17:56 |
| ceene | it seems to be a ban, but maybe it's only temporary | 17:56 |
| Sicelo | hmm. that sucks then | 17:57 |
| ceene | i couldn't get scratchbox to work, so i used my main number to test it | 17:57 |
| ceene | maybe i should post about this on the forum hehe | 17:57 |
| ceene | so people don't get massively banned | 17:57 |
| Sicelo | if only everyone just used IRC! | 17:58 |
| ceene | those were good times | 17:58 |
| Sicelo | or XMPP if they want/need fancy features such as calls | 17:58 |
| Wizzup | You can perhaps create a bitlbee plugin | 17:58 |
| Wizzup | Any clue why whatsapp is so agressive in banning implementations | 17:58 |
| Sicelo | or SIP. i've tried to win over some people here, but didn't get far | 17:58 |
| Sicelo | people just like what "works" | 17:59 |
| ceene | the problem with the bitlbee plugin is the same as with yappari | 17:59 |
| Wizzup | ceene: wrt banning, of course | 17:59 |
| Sicelo | Wizzup: they claim unofficial clients are a security risk | 17:59 |
| ceene | you get one little thing wrong with the protocol and bam! banned! | 17:59 |
| Wizzup | but then it appears like everyone is using IRC ;) | 17:59 |

| Wizzup | where do you live | 18:00 |
| Sicelo | Swaziland/South Africa | 18:00 |
| ceene | well, in my book yappari is less of a security risk as it is free source, but go and talk to them about that | 18:00 |
| ecc3g | stupid whatsapp simply wants to uniquely identify people so they can ban them if they start spamming the service without thier consent... that's the security they want. | 18:01 |

| KotCzarny | in .pl there are few im networks, but they usually dont ban people for using alternatives | 18:50 |
| Sicelo | haha, just because of whatsapp? i'll quit whatsapp, not the N900 :) | 18:51 |
| KotCzarny | yet, recently they updated policies with the list of 'official clients' so maybe its a wider move | 18:51 |
| KotCzarny | dont forget to make people mail whatsapp staff | 18:51 |
| KotCzarny | that they quit because of ban on alternatives | 18:51 |
| KotCzarny | also, make a campaign or two | 18:51 |
| KotCzarny | but suggest people to mail WA staff | 18:52 |
| KotCzarny | it really can make a difference | 18:52 |
| Sicelo | it won't | 18:53 |
| KotCzarny | it can, receiving few hundred thousands emails is significant | 18:53 |
| Sicelo | ok .. let me not be dogmatic, but it does seem impossible | 18:54 |
| ceene | dunno, how may of us are? | 18:54 |
| ceene | 200? | 18:54 |
| Sicelo | KotCzarny: for one, they don't even seem to be interested in mails that don't come from mailbox directly .. they want you to mail from the app | 18:54 |
| KotCzarny | ceene, seek other WA alts, join forces | 18:55 |
| KotCzarny | mail the bastards | 18:56 |
| ceene | i may end up installing an android emulator and connecting via vnc to access WA | 18:57 |
| ceene | or parsing androids' wa sqlite files to forward them or something | 18:58 |
| ceene | i could sell a cloud of virtual android devices with WA forwarding... | 18:58 |

| ceene | on the other hand, I've set up a linux server of mine to act as exchange server | 19:07 |
| ceene | so i have instant mail delivery on my n900, alongside contacts and calendar synchronization to owncloud | 19:07 |
| ceene | mail is previously filtered and each attachment is removed and replaced by a link to an https location | 19:07 |
| ceene | so i don't download big attachments on the phone without my knowledge, saving 3g data | 19:08 |

| ceene | it seems to be good enough for this | 19:15 |
| ceene | it's quite a bit burdersome to set up | 19:15 |
| ceene | because owncloud dav urls are a bit confusing | 19:15 |
| Sicelo | how about resource usage .. not bad? | 19:15 |
| ceene | on the server it's completely negligible | 19:16 |
| ceene | and on the n900 | 19:16 |
| ceene | i'd say it's better than using modest to automatically sync | 19:16 |
| ceene | as exchange protocol supports push operations | 19:16 |
| ceene | so email is not polled by the phone but pushed from the server | 19:17 |
| Sicelo | yeah. i''m currently using outlook.com for that, but don't really like it at all | 19:17 |
| ceene | to remove attachments i simply use procmail and a perl script i found somewhere and modified a bit | 19:17 |
| Sicelo | did you really have to use it? modest doesn't download attachments until you choose to .. am i wrong? | 19:18 |
| Sicelo | i think only mutt has that flaw :( | 19:18 |
| ceene | uhm | 19:18 |
| ceene | you know what? | 19:18 |

| Sicelo | no | 19:20 |
| Sicelo | but it doesn't auto-download it :) | 19:20 |
| ceene | are you sure? | 19:20 |
| Sicelo | if you want the attachment you click it, and only then does it start downloading | 19:20 |

| Sicelo | you still learned something from your efforts | 19:21 |
| ceene | that's very true | 19:21 |
| Sicelo | and can bring that to mutt, which sadly downloads all junk you get sent :( | 19:21 |
| ceene | and push mail is still something nice, as well as calendar and contacts synchronization | 19:21 |
| Sicelo | definitely. i'll look at z-push further. | 19:22 |
| Sicelo | i would like to close my outlook.com | 19:22 |
| Sicelo | but haven't had access to a proper server for stuff like z-push, etc | 19:22 |
| ceene | luckily i have acces to a couple from my uni | 19:23 |
| ceene | my own copy of ovi repos is in one of them | 19:23 |
| ceene | it also seems to be currently maintained | 19:24 |

| Sicelo | DocScrutinizer05: apparently recaller has some serious memory leaks | 22:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | does it? | 22:56 |
| *** trumee has quit IRC | 22:56 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | my device been at 60 days uptime at times, maybe 90 | 22:56 |

| DocScrutinizer05 | (memleaks) if it's really a problem, then a killall hildon-home once a week prolly can't hurt | 22:58 |
| Sicelo | yeah. tbh i also never noticed any issues | 23:00 |
| Sicelo | but .. the dev didn't abandon it for no reason and put orrechiette instead | 23:01 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | well, it's a quite screwed-up implemetation, as a applet (so sub-'process') of hildon desktop | 23:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | those desktop applet 'plugins' are a silly concept to start with | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | one failing-> whole hildon desktop hangs | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | once segfaulting -> reboot loop | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | one* | 23:07 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | it's maybe appropriate concept for really lightweight stuff, like... queenbeecon or sth like that, or for weather forecast applet (though I already start feeling stomach ache with that and the access to internet it needs) | 23:11 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | for such stuff the benefits from not needing a complete own dedicated process environment are noticeable | 23:12 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | stuff like recaller better was a mature decent own process, no matter what's the GUI | 23:13 |
| Sicelo | ceene: lol. just found that my 1st blocked number is now unblocked .. it was maybe 3-4 months ago if 'm not mistaken | 23:21 |
| Sicelo | will be testing your 2.0.18 now | 23:22 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | how about using temporary account/number for testing new apps? | 23:23 |
| DocScrutinizer51 | (not that DocScrutinizer51 would ever suggest using stuff like watsapp) | 23:24 |
| Sicelo | tbh most of us wish we didn't have to. unfortunately, we also have real lives .. and real people to communicate with, who cbf about the philosophy of proprietary vs. open standards | 23:27 |
