brolin_empeyHeh, a decade after the Nokia N900 was released with only 256 MiB of main memory, the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is released with apparently up to 16 GiB of main memory.04:49

sunshavisolved06:13
sunshaviis there an app that let me Navigate a text file just for viewing? (like the pdfviewer with scrool by finger and +- for font-size) but just for a text file. Navigating a text file just if it were an image. Sometimes one of my functions is larger than the n900 screen.06:19
sunshavibtw. I have tried converting text file to pdf and using pdfviewer. but. it separates  the text by pages (I want continuos viewing of text)06:20

brolin_empeysunshavi: You can open a plain-text file in a Web browser.07:01
brolin_empeyI mean to view a plain-text file.07:02
sunshavilet me try it07:02
*** Oksana has quit IRC07:02
brolin_empeyUse the file:// URI scheme to access the file system.  For example: file:///etc/fstab07:05
*** DocScrutinizer05 has quit IRC07:07
*** DocScrutinizer05 has joined #maemo07:07
brolin_empey(assuming that Maemo has a normal fstab file.  I do not remember if it does and I currently cannot check because my N900 is at home but I am at my office.)07:07
sunshavibrolin_empey: it works07:08
sunshavino quarantine on Canada?07:08
brolin_empeysunshavi: We are still “free” to travel within Canada, or at least within Metro Vancouver.  I rarely leave Metro Vancouver any more.  I do not know about all of the rest of Canada, though.  The winter in the rest of Canada is too severe for me to want to live anywhere else in Canada.07:14
sunshaviwe can not move from home. Just for buying (1 person)07:17
brolin_empeyI am used to living on the coast too, so it would seem strange to live inland.07:17
brolin_empeysunshavi: Where do you live geographically?07:19
sunshavinear machupichu07:20
brolin_empeyInland Peru?07:23
sunshavimore exactly near nazca. but You have got the idea07:23
brolin_empeyOK.  I had to look up machupichu on Google Maps because I did not know off hand where it is.07:26
sunshaviok. for us everybody knows it ;)07:38
brolin_empeyDoes playing Tomb Raider (1996) count as visiting Peru?  I guess not.07:38
sunshavilol07:38
brolin_empeyTomb Raider II is one of the DirectX 5 games that works on Windows NT 4 with the beta version of DirectX 5 for NT 4.  Officially, NT 4 only supports up to DirectX 3 but a beta version of DirectX 5 that works with NT 4 was and probably still is available on the Internet.07:42
brolin_empeyIncidentally: Is there a case in practice where a device that works with an HDD does not work with an SSD that uses the same host interface as the HDD that works, excluding the case that the storage capacity of an SSD is too large compared to an HDD because that could happen with an HDD too?09:34
brolin_empeyMaybe if the software on the host computer thinks that the drive reporting its rotation speed as zero is an error?09:36
brolin_empeyAlso excluding drives that do not work correctly with early SATA host controllers that lack automatic negotiation capability because that happens with HDDs too, not only with SSDs.09:39
