| bencoh | Hey there! Can anyone recommend a call blocker for maemo5? | 11:16 |
|---|---|---|
| KotCzarny | i think i way using pycallblock | 11:17 |
| KotCzarny | *was | 11:17 |
| KotCzarny | was a bit quirky because it required some nudging after a reboot, but otherwise worked | 11:17 |
| bencoh | hmm | 11:24 |
| *** sunshavi has quit IRC | 11:25 | |
| Vajb | I think I used callerx | 11:33 |
| Vajb | Worked well, but needed whitelist reloading after reboot. | 11:34 |
| KotCzarny | har har | 11:34 |
| Vajb | Got rid of phone spam with it by blocking all the unknown callers :) | 11:35 |
| KotCzarny | i just blocked unknown numbers on operator's level | 11:35 |
| KotCzarny | saves some battery ;) | 11:35 |
| KotCzarny | s/unknown/hidden/ | 11:36 |
| Vajb | Oh, didn't know that is possible | 11:36 |
| KotCzarny | it is, at least in .pl | 11:36 |
| KotCzarny | you can request to disallow calls from hidden numbers | 11:36 |
| Vajb | Oh yeah, might be dependent of country | 11:36 |
| KotCzarny | and most operators support it here | 11:37 |
| Vajb | Then again it might be possible here tooo | 11:37 |
| Vajb | Since i recall that at some point phone marketers switched from using blocked numbers to visible numbers | 11:38 |
| KotCzarny | yup | 11:38 |
| KotCzarny | pity that virtual operators allow it for such a cheap price (to get new numbers) | 11:38 |
| KotCzarny | would be swell to be able to enter regex in any of blocker apps | 11:39 |
| KotCzarny | trivial to implement, yet, rarely done | 11:39 |
| KotCzarny | and i didnt have any spam call for a long time. might be also that im requesting removal of my numbers from their databases | 11:40 |
| Vajb | Yes, i do that too, but there are just so many of them... | 11:43 |
| KotCzarny | i suspect being unpleasant also helps them to tick the 'nocall' checkbox | 11:44 |
| Vajb | It might work, but in the end they are just doing their job | 11:45 |
| Vajb | Kind of don't shoot the messenger situation | 11:45 |
| KotCzarny | ya, and who knows what procedures they must follow | 11:45 |
| KotCzarny | also, working as a marketer is worse than being a slave | 11:46 |
| KotCzarny | one girl at my current workplace used to work as one | 11:46 |
| KotCzarny | and they had some strict rules to follow | 11:46 |
| KotCzarny | ie. they couldnt disconnect themselves | 11:46 |
| Vajb | Yup, I'd rather live at street | 11:46 |
| KotCzarny | untill all questions are asked | 11:46 |
| KotCzarny | even when the other person repeated 'no, thanks' | 11:47 |
| *** Pali has joined #maemo | 11:47 | |
| KotCzarny | they also had daily quota, time per call, couldnt go to WC too often etc etc | 11:48 |
| Vajb | I'm amazed that they have employees | 11:50 |
| KotCzarny | young/old folks' lack of skills + need of money == agreement to slave labor | 11:50 |
| Vajb | I were young and needed the money, eh eh | 11:52 |

| sixwheeledbeast | bencoh: I am still using callerx if that helps, I found them both to be a bit flaky but the best of both | 12:52 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Those types of call centres are often like battery cage farms | 12:55 |

| bencoh | sixwheeledbeast: I went for callerx as well for now ... I'd need to run strace on it for a long period of time to see how it idles | 13:58 |
| bencoh | (but it seemed "okay" thus far) | 13:58 |
| sixwheeledbeast | bencoh: IIRC pycallblocker eats into hildon home over time. | 13:58 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Although maybe it was something else, there where a lot of python things that leaked into hildon. | 13:59 |
| bencoh | huhu | 13:59 |
| bencoh | I didn't even dare trying to let a python daemon run fulltime on my phone | 14:00 |
| sicelo | :) | 14:00 |
| bencoh | (I wasn't exactly happy with the fact that callerx is Qt either, especially since I don't understand the need for Qt there, but ... so be it) | 14:00 |
| bencoh | it doesn't even have any UI ... | 14:01 |
| bencoh | I feel like I should write some simple daemon in C | 14:01 |
| bencoh | from what I understand, all you need is to handle a few dbus callbacks | 14:01 |
| sixwheeledbeast | the GUI it does have a gui AFAIK | 14:01 |
| *** Maxdamantus has quit IRC | 14:02 | |
| bencoh | callerxui you mean? | 14:02 |
| bencoh | I didn't install it | 14:02 |
| sixwheeledbeast | i see it's two packages | 14:03 |
| *** Maxdamantus has joined #maemo | 14:03 | |
| sixwheeledbeast | I suppose, it's how Qt works | 14:03 |
| bencoh | yeah | 14:03 |
| bencoh | err, yeah about two packages | 14:03 |
| KotCzarny | best would be implementing white/blacklists natively though | 14:04 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I have a lot of respect for Qt and Maemo integration TBH, it helped me make packages I wouldn't have been able to | 14:04 |
| bencoh | sixwheeledbeast: oh, I have nothing against Qt on maemo, apart from the fact that n900 only has 256MB of memory ;-) | 14:09 |
| bencoh | so I'd rather not have background applications written in Qt | 14:09 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Yer obviously the lighter the better | 14:10 |
| sixwheeledbeast | ideally everything UI wise would be GTK | 14:10 |
| KotCzarny | and implemented in core elements | 14:10 |
| KotCzarny | without the need of additional apps/tools | 14:10 |
| sixwheeledbeast | A simple daemon would be nice tho, I'd be happy with some "/home/user/.callblacklist" file that was manually edited. | 14:12 |
| KotCzarny | with regexps! | 14:12 |
| KotCzarny | ;) | 14:12 |
