00:00.29 | pawky|2 | by the way... I read one could do some simple video editing in PR1.2... haven't found out how... did they take this feature away in the final release? |
00:05.42 | itsnotabigtruck | i heard about that too...maybe you just need to look harder? |
00:05.46 | itsnotabigtruck | i haven't actually tried it |
00:06.00 | itsnotabigtruck | but there's a bunch of stuff in the release for it and i think they were trumpeting it on their blogs |
00:06.04 | itsnotabigtruck | non-destructive editing |
00:06.18 | itsnotabigtruck | well, that was for photos actually |
00:06.39 | pawky|2 | hmm.. buy that one could do already in the PR1.1 |
00:07.25 | pawky|2 | (but) |
00:08.24 | itsnotabigtruck | ok, i downloaded the worldwide generic PR1.0 emmc |
00:08.28 | itsnotabigtruck | it has the same familiar two vids inside |
00:08.30 | itsnotabigtruck | :( |
00:08.42 | itsnotabigtruck | what product code is your n9 |
00:08.51 | itsnotabigtruck | well, was the N9 that you sent in |
00:09.26 | pawky|2 | hmm... |
00:09.34 | Jare | pawky|2: go to gallery, choose a video clip and edit it |
00:10.08 | pawky|2 | Jare: like video clips would be in the gallery? |
00:10.43 | *** join/#harmattan heymaster (~heymaster@78.61.212.188) |
00:11.09 | pawky|2 | Jare: only pictures in the gallery on my N9.. |
00:12.26 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: looking in an old dmesg output file.... |
00:13.06 | itsnotabigtruck | pawky|2: i'm not sure that would actually contain the product code |
00:14.01 | pawky|2 | you mean that 059L6J7 or similar? |
00:14.16 | Jare | the videos you've shot with the N9 are in the gallery |
00:14.22 | itsnotabigtruck | yeah |
00:14.27 | pawky|2 | Jare:ohh.. |
00:15.27 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: 059L7N6 |
00:15.45 | itsnotabigtruck | 059L7N6: N9 RM-696 Country Variant Sweden SE Black 64GB_COLOR |
00:15.57 | pawky|2 | yeah.. that one.. |
00:16.16 | itsnotabigtruck | jesus...1.5gb download |
00:16.18 | itsnotabigtruck | because of all the maps |
00:16.26 | itsnotabigtruck | you do this :p http://nds2.fds-fire.nokia.com/fdp/interface/FiRe/2011/9/--FID--A0A22BIQSOSCN/--LID--FiRe1317290711122/EF26AFF2_DFL61_HARMATTAN_10.2011.31-3.339.2.339_EMMC_339.bin |
00:16.44 | Jare | I suppose you could edit other videos too, if the format supported and you move them to DCIM folder.. |
00:16.59 | Jare | +is |
00:17.05 | itsnotabigtruck | pawky|2: install flasher 3.5 (not 3.12.1, though they can co-exist) |
00:17.19 | itsnotabigtruck | make a directory called emmcdump or some such |
00:17.34 | itsnotabigtruck | flasher -uemmcdump -F foo.bin |
00:17.46 | itsnotabigtruck | that will put a file named mmc in the directory |
00:17.56 | itsnotabigtruck | get that onto a linux system and loop mount it as vfat |
00:19.26 | pawky|2 | Jare: you are right... cool :-) |
00:19.51 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: duh... no flashing for me for a long time to come... have burned two phones that way.. |
00:20.10 | itsnotabigtruck | pawky|2: no need to flash, you use the flasher to un-fiasco it |
00:20.15 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: well.. actually only one.. the first one was broken from factory.. |
00:20.25 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: ahh.. |
00:20.44 | itsnotabigtruck | no need to connect the phone, in fact don't connect the phone in case you typo it or something |
00:21.01 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: yeah.. |
00:21.08 | itsnotabigtruck | what happened to the 2nd phone? |
00:21.41 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: I was experimenting with trying to throw aegis out.. |
00:21.47 | itsnotabigtruck | also flasher 3.5 installs to c:\program files (x86)\maemo\flasher-3.5\flasher-3.5.exe |
00:21.58 | itsnotabigtruck | or something along those lines |
00:22.10 | itsnotabigtruck | pawky|2: heh |
00:22.16 | pawky|2 | in the end, the phone thought it had a newer version of the firmware than was upon the phone.. so I could never reflash.. |
00:22.36 | itsnotabigtruck | you couldn't just flash the firmware it thought it already head? |
00:22.44 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: well.. using that openmode version, you still have aegis doing stuff... |
00:23.24 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: nope.. i sent it in to Nokia.. who sent it to Romania (as usual)... who gave up and sent me a new phone... |
00:23.54 | itsnotabigtruck | that's also weird, i thought nokia stores usually have dongles that allow using phoenix to downgrade phones |
00:24.16 | itsnotabigtruck | so they could just downgrade it from whatever it thought it had to pr1.whatever |
00:24.18 | pawky|2 | obviously not... :-( or.... :-) |
00:24.38 | pawky|2 | neither the official repair store could fix it, nor Romania.. |
00:25.15 | pawky|2 | ... or was it hungary... |
00:25.28 | itsnotabigtruck | it's all kind of irrelevant to me since nokia doesn't even have repair shops in north america |
00:25.40 | pawky|2 | they should have.. |
00:26.02 | itsnotabigtruck | and i might or might not have a warranty in the first place |
00:26.25 | itsnotabigtruck | :p |
00:26.45 | pawky|2 | well.. nokia wont complain if you accidentally cannot reflash your unit, even if you have flashed it before... |
00:27.15 | pawky|2 | they probably don't have to help you.... but they righteously see things through their fingers i presume.. |
00:27.45 | pawky|2 | again.. the best thing would be to not break it in the first place.. ;-) |
00:28.27 | pawky|2 | so.. beware of aegis... |
00:28.42 | itsnotabigtruck | well, beware of messing with SW certificates |
00:28.52 | itsnotabigtruck | that's dangerous stuff yo :p |
00:29.09 | pawky|2 | found a backlog? :-) |
00:29.45 | pawky|2 | I think it all started with wanting to mount stuff... then I also looked into certificates.. |
00:29.50 | itsnotabigtruck | nah, haven't looked |
00:30.10 | pawky|2 | should be somewhere... in november/december |
00:30.22 | pawky|2 | I nearly cracked it... |
00:31.09 | pawky|2 | Believe I accidentally flashed some certificate that f..ed it all up... |
00:32.16 | pawky|2 | had one to many firmwares laying around... |
00:35.01 | pawky|2 | well.. time to sleep... |
00:36.07 | itsnotabigtruck | pawky|2: see pm |
00:36.15 | itsnotabigtruck | oh, nm then |
00:36.24 | pawky|2 | itsnotabigtruck: still here.. |
00:36.47 | pawky|2 | pm? |
00:38.27 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Could you verify one little thing for me? |
00:39.00 | pawky|2 | sure |
00:39.17 | pawky|2 | DrGrov: ohh... sorry.. |
00:39.58 | DrGrov | pawky|2: Huh? |
00:41.01 | pawky|2 | DrGrov: never mind, thought you asked me... |
00:41.13 | itsnotabigtruck | pawky|2: private message |
00:41.22 | itsnotabigtruck | DrGrov: yeah |
00:41.37 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: You are on PR 1.2 with a N9 yes? |
00:41.40 | itsnotabigtruck | yeah |
00:41.56 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Good. How long does it take for the device to power off? |
00:42.03 | itsnotabigtruck | DrGrov: not long at all |
00:42.15 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Talking 5-10 seconds approximately? |
00:42.18 | itsnotabigtruck | a couple seconds, and then it takes a while longer to actually power off after the screen blanks |
00:42.40 | DrGrov | So the light is lit when you are powering it off and it stays lit for a few seconds longer? |
00:42.58 | itsnotabigtruck | yeah, if i remember correctly |
00:43.02 | DrGrov | Ok |
00:43.35 | DrGrov | I wonder if I might have some unusual odd behavior... I powered it off, took a few seconds to get the Nokia screen, it blanks off and then the lit is lit for about 5 seconds. Perhaps even 6-7 seconds. |
00:44.07 | DrGrov | I wonder, feels like it is actually slower to power off in PR 1.2 than in PR 1.1. Could the feeling of delay be because of heavy usage? |
00:45.25 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Have you tried to plug in the charger after you switched off? Did it give you the power on state and it went through all the way to actually powering it on, asking PIN ? |
00:46.00 | itsnotabigtruck | DrGrov: i think i've done it once or twice |
00:46.04 | itsnotabigtruck | it's heavily timing dependent |
00:46.16 | itsnotabigtruck | remember, attaching to usb boots it into act-dead mode |
00:46.22 | itsnotabigtruck | so if the phone is already changing modes |
00:46.35 | itsnotabigtruck | what mode it ends up in depends on exactly when you plugged it in |
00:47.02 | DrGrov | So a delay before I start charging will make it go into act-dead mode for only charging? |
00:47.16 | DrGrov | Perhaps I plugged in the damn thing too fast LOL |
00:51.27 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Will the delay actually help to make it only charge? |
00:51.45 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Or do I need to monitor something else in this fucked up process to get the bloody phone only charging? |
00:52.07 | DrGrov | I am losing patience with this charging bullshit |
00:52.08 | itsnotabigtruck | plug it into usb, then "power it off" |
00:52.23 | itsnotabigtruck | or power it off completely, wait, then plug it into usb |
00:52.39 | DrGrov | Ok, will ex. 5 minutes be enough? |
00:53.01 | DrGrov | *for example 5 minutes |
00:54.03 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Thanks for the help, I am off to get some sleep. |
00:54.42 | itsnotabigtruck | DrGrov: 5 mins? no, like 10 seconds |
00:54.48 | itsnotabigtruck | just wait for the light to be off |
00:54.55 | itsnotabigtruck | or plug it in while it's already powered on instead |
00:55.10 | itsnotabigtruck | that will transition it directly from on to act dead mode |
00:55.24 | itsnotabigtruck | instead of on -> off -> act dead |
00:55.46 | DrGrov | Well, I waited 10 seconds after I powered it off and the bloody thing powered on all the way until it asked for the PIN code |
00:56.01 | DrGrov | That is when I powered it off and tried putting the charging cable |
00:56.23 | DrGrov | Nevermind, I wait 10 minutes to be on the safe side and plug the fucking charger in sideways and hope the bastard phone reacts like it should |
00:56.36 | DrGrov | Or I throw it out from the window, fuck it |
00:57.18 | DrGrov | needs his nicotine to calm down |
00:57.37 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Thanks for the help though :) |
00:57.59 | itsnotabigtruck | lol |
00:58.01 | itsnotabigtruck | later |
00:58.16 | DrGrov | I gotta get a grip of myself, this snusing and smoking is making me insane |
00:58.58 | DrGrov | I used 6 cans in 4 days of Swedish snus. It is insanely much. Usually goes about 1 can per 2 days but no, now it goes at least 1 can / day. |
01:00.11 | DrGrov | itsnotabigtruck: Laters, take care |

02:15.44 | beford | i have one |
02:15.46 | beford | :d |
02:15.46 | beford | xD |
02:16.06 | itsnotabigtruck | ieatlint: i'm sure there is, the question is how,a nd whether aegis blocks it |
02:16.08 | itsnotabigtruck | hmm |
02:16.46 | itsnotabigtruck | beford: well, i'm sure lots of people do :p |
02:17.22 | itsnotabigtruck | on the other hand i probably wouldn't have had much use for one back then |
02:17.40 | itsnotabigtruck | if i was in college 5 years ago maemo tablets probably would have been the stuff |
02:19.50 | beford | is it 5 years old? time passes fast xD |
02:20.45 | itsnotabigtruck | n810's getting close to it |
02:21.23 | itsnotabigtruck | and the 770 is a bit over 6 years old |
02:22.55 | ieatlint | itsnotabigtruck: yeah, i'll look into, was just seeing if someone knew so i could shortcut to the solution :) |
02:24.02 | itsnotabigtruck | looks like the n810 wimax goes for about $125 these days |
02:25.08 | itsnotabigtruck | interesting, apparently the n810 wimax is locked to the now-nonexistant xohm |
02:25.15 | itsnotabigtruck | it can't be used with clear, which succeeded it |
02:25.58 | itsnotabigtruck | actually it's not, looks like some people just couldn't figure out how to make it connect |
02:26.24 | beford | lol |
02:28.48 | itsnotabigtruck | the problem with clear's wimax service is that it's at least as expensive as a cell phone add-on data plan |
02:30.38 | itsnotabigtruck | and everybody has a cell phone these days, and most of the people who'd think about signing up for wimax have smartphones too |
02:43.35 | SpeedEvil | Will depend on who has the unlimited plan with the biggest quota. |

02:51.23 | itsnotabigtruck | eh, there has to be at least 4 digit numbers of N9s in the us, that would still make it very small |

04:24.12 | itsnotabigtruck | i'm hoping bumping the version of my app will cause appsformeego to come to its senses and refresh everything |
04:24.39 | itsnotabigtruck | that "screenshot" i submitted being stretched horribly is keeping me from posting it :p |
04:25.34 | ieatlint | the icon for that ad-hac is a bit tacky :P |
04:26.00 | itsnotabigtruck | ieatlint: on appsformeego, or once installed |
04:26.14 | itsnotabigtruck | in the package manager, it shows up as that nokia wifi icon that's in the middle |
04:26.32 | itsnotabigtruck | the icon on appsformeego should, i hope, change soon |
04:26.49 | ieatlint | yeah, ok |
04:26.54 | ieatlint | the one on the website is what i saw |
04:27.05 | ieatlint | and i oddly don't want an american flag icon on my phone :P |

04:27.16 | itsnotabigtruck | it just changed |
04:27.50 | itsnotabigtruck | but that icon again is only for the website, on the device it's the wifi icon (squircle in the middle with the waves) |
04:28.01 | itsnotabigtruck | and it installs no desktop icon at all |
04:28.46 | ieatlint | ah, ok |

05:34.33 | tehdely | i'm more concerned about privacy implications |
05:34.36 | itsnotabigtruck | though otoh a knowledgeable attacker can just wipe the phone no matter what antitheft software you use |
05:34.39 | tehdely | and also whether it'll work once i put my phone in open mode |

05:35.06 | itsnotabigtruck | but the only thing preventing it from being removed is the device lock code |

06:27.12 | itsnotabigtruck | for a specific example, if someone installs calendarrr then the pr1.2 update |

06:31.08 | ieatlint | what is calendarr? |
06:32.37 | itsnotabigtruck | ieatlint: my calendar live icon program |
06:32.44 | itsnotabigtruck | pretty sure i relentlessly spammed it here when it was new :D |
06:33.08 | ieatlint | yeah, i installed it on a phone |
06:33.14 | itsnotabigtruck | it doesn't make any sense on PR1.2 because it has the same functionality built-in |
06:33.15 | ieatlint | thought that's what it was |
06:33.18 | ieatlint | but wasn't sure |
06:33.40 | itsnotabigtruck | so i put a conflicts line in blocking it from being installed with PR1.2's calendar |
06:33.42 | ieatlint | so all i can say is the phone i installed it on, which is now running 1.2, updated without issue and the calendar icon is still updating |
06:33.50 | itsnotabigtruck | but i'm not really sure how gracefully package-manager handles that sort of thing |
06:33.54 | ieatlint | i am now wondering if the calendar icon is being updated twice each night though |
06:34.28 | itsnotabigtruck | ideally it should either a) get rid of calendarrr, or b) fail the update before it actually starts, so the user can rectify it |
06:34.58 | itsnotabigtruck | ieatlint: well, see if calendar-live-icon (calendarrr in the package gui) is still there |
06:35.13 | itsnotabigtruck | it sounds like package manager might have just automatically nuked it |

07:23.56 | beford | ugh it rebooted automagically to set the lang and scared me |
07:24.39 | itsnotabigtruck | beford: hmm? it should only reboot if you tell it to |
07:24.56 | itsnotabigtruck | if you skipped doing flasher -i though, i've heard it'll automatically reboot shortly after the flash |
07:25.14 | beford | I suppose it read the sim settings and noticed it had to boot in spanish |
07:25.33 | beford | it was starting normally and showing a 'new things in you n9' and then iy rebooted |
07:27.02 | itsnotabigtruck | weird |
07:27.12 | itsnotabigtruck | btw the default language is set in CAL |
07:27.16 | itsnotabigtruck | and afaik it persists |
07:27.28 | itsnotabigtruck | actually i'm not 100% sure about that |
07:27.54 | beford | I had it on english before flashing |
07:28.33 | itsnotabigtruck | right, but my guess is that the default language is set at the factory and never changes |
07:28.41 | beford | ah |
07:28.43 | itsnotabigtruck | however, i'm not actually sure about that, it might just be part of the image |
07:29.03 | itsnotabigtruck | but i don't think any of the 00x images are *just* for spanish speaking countries |
07:29.10 | itsnotabigtruck | so that doesn't make any sense |
07:29.17 | beford | no, thats why I think it read it from the simcard |
07:29.34 | itsnotabigtruck | but it defaults even without a sim card installed |
07:29.44 | itsnotabigtruck | and mine defaults to english (great britain) |
07:29.48 | itsnotabigtruck | because that's what's in CAL, presumably |
07:30.16 | itsnotabigtruck | though i'm surprised it doesn't default to spanish, it's a latin america import |

09:37.00 | itsnotabigtruck | once the SDK DVD is out, it might be a good idea to put together a 3rd party repo with as many PR1.2 SDK packages as possible |
09:37.12 | itsnotabigtruck | though that doesn't cover any of the closed source things |
09:38.07 | itsnotabigtruck | the irritating thing is that every one of those -dev packages *exists*, after all, how else would harmattan be built - it just doesn't make it out to developers at all |
09:39.00 | itsnotabigtruck | and if that whole process doesn't change by PR1.3 then important header files will be forever locked away on some abandoned vcs somewhere |

09:42.38 | itsnotabigtruck | well, i think some people at nokia etc. have already tried to get things changed with the sdk, to little effect |
09:42.44 | itsnotabigtruck | that's why i'm being so pessimistic right now |
09:42.53 | itsnotabigtruck | c.f. all the drama related to signing the repository |
09:43.01 | itsnotabigtruck | and that doesn't even involve releasing anything new |
09:43.55 | itsnotabigtruck | and i get the impression that releasing any sort of dev packages, etc. involves a lot of bureaucracy and no one wants to spend time on things like swlc auditing |

10:16.26 | kozzi | I know about that site, what I mean is discussion forums |
10:16.54 | itsnotabigtruck | yeah, TMO and FMC are really the only particularly lively forums |
10:17.08 | itsnotabigtruck | there's a few symbian sites that tried to expand into meego a little |
10:17.24 | kozzi | yeah but none succeeded |
10:17.55 | itsnotabigtruck | looks like my-meego forum = my-symbian forum |
10:18.19 | kozzi | btw, now that Google talk video can be implemented, any idea if msn video is doable ? |
10:18.34 | itsnotabigtruck | has anyone implemented it for telepathy? |
10:18.44 | itsnotabigtruck | e.g. in telepathy-butterfly |
10:18.46 | itsnotabigtruck | if so, probably |
10:19.00 | kozzi | none of my friends use gmail, other than for spams |
10:19.47 | kozzi | don't think so, the current msn support isn't quite there yet |
10:19.56 | kozzi | no file transfer, avatar support |
10:20.09 | itsnotabigtruck | kozzi: http://blog.desmottes.be/post/2009/09/14/MSN-audio/video-chat-in-Telepathy |
10:20.18 | itsnotabigtruck | i'd strongly recommend moving away from MSN asap, but there you go |
10:20.40 | itsnotabigtruck | get telepathy-butterfly installed and configured, and install the video call enabler from the store |
10:20.52 | itsnotabigtruck | despite what it says, it enables video call support globally |
10:20.54 | itsnotabigtruck | it's not just for gtalk |
10:21.21 | itsnotabigtruck | one thing that could be problematic - i don't think an accounts plugin exists for telepathy-butterfly |
10:21.46 | itsnotabigtruck | telepathy-haze (which is what "extraplugins" in the store uses) won't cut it for audio/video |
10:22.04 | itsnotabigtruck | i have no idea if this will actually work, but it sounds like the best bet |
10:22.25 | itsnotabigtruck | remember that MSN is totally unencrypted |
10:22.46 | itsnotabigtruck | however, telepathy doesn't support secure rtp, so all voice or video calls are totally unencrypted no matter what you use |
10:24.14 | kozzi | so, it all depends on extraplugins maker to decide whether to support it or now ? |
10:24.24 | kozzi | *now=not |
10:24.40 | itsnotabigtruck | kozzi: no, extraplugins is a dead end for that |
10:24.47 | itsnotabigtruck | extraplugins uses telepathy-haze for everything |
10:24.57 | itsnotabigtruck | which is a connector between pidgin (libpurple) and telepathy |
10:25.03 | itsnotabigtruck | so it doesn't support anything but the basics |
10:26.55 | itsnotabigtruck | this is kinda the problem, there's a bunch of ways to connect to an IM service and all of them have downsides |
10:27.05 | itsnotabigtruck | anyway, you can add the butterfly msn account using mc-tool in the shell |
10:27.22 | kozzi | yeah, I was wondering what's the different between two method on tmo |
10:27.23 | itsnotabigtruck | it won't integrate into accounts and contacts, only into messaging |
10:27.27 | kozzi | haze and butterfly |
10:27.46 | kozzi | now I got it |
10:28.10 | itsnotabigtruck | right, native telepathy vs pidgin compatibility |
10:28.46 | itsnotabigtruck | obviously the main reason to use telepathy-haze is that it gets you reasonably functional support for everything pidgin can speak, which is a lot |
10:28.49 | kozzi | I remember that you said, you were developing a xmpp plugin/addon to be used inplace of the default one |
10:29.02 | itsnotabigtruck | i said i was thinking about it...haven't actually started :( |
10:29.15 | itsnotabigtruck | but yeah, implementing that should allow xmpp to be used with any server, with video calling and everything |
10:29.19 | kozzi | oh, it good that you gave it a though :) |
10:29.19 | itsnotabigtruck | just like the google talk plugin |
10:30.02 | kozzi | it would be awesome |
10:30.10 | itsnotabigtruck | remember that if you ever connect to e.g. a wifi hotspot |
10:30.28 | itsnotabigtruck | someone can lift all your confidential messages by firing up wireshark and clicking a few buttons |
10:30.55 | itsnotabigtruck | that's the problem with wlm/msn |
10:31.27 | kozzi | yes, but I think like most people, the choice is whether facebook or MSn |
10:31.53 | kozzi | I don't think most ppl really mind that |
10:32.20 | kozzi | otg, messaging is done mostly using 3g anyway |
10:32.46 | itsnotabigtruck | that's kind of the problem...everyone *should* mind that, whether they're speaking about anything actually secret or not |
10:32.53 | kozzi | and I just simply dislike facebook |
10:33.01 | itsnotabigtruck | but vendors don't care about security, and users don't demand security |
10:33.51 | kozzi | well, I don't really know what's safe anymore |

10:34.29 | itsnotabigtruck | that's the thing, the N9 doesn't support any sort of end to end encryption anyway |
10:34.47 | itsnotabigtruck | and 99% of the time no matter what protocol is used, the messages are passing through the im servers of some major corporation |

11:08.29 | itsnotabigtruck | ah |
11:08.31 | *** join/#harmattan Myname24 (~Myname@80.79.159.18) |
11:08.45 | itsnotabigtruck | yeah, the problem is a) afaik there's no interface in telepathy for end to end security |
11:08.51 | itsnotabigtruck | so you'd be doing that from scratch |
11:09.01 | itsnotabigtruck | and then b) the gui in messaging/call-ui needs to be adjusted to be security aware |
11:09.15 | petteri | otr encryption on N9 would be nice: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-the-Record_Messaging |
11:09.19 | itsnotabigtruck | e.g. the call screen needs to have go secure/go clear/short authentication string widgets |
11:09.29 | itsnotabigtruck | for voice encryption |
11:09.37 | itsnotabigtruck | and all of the communication gui stuff is non-oss so that's very lame |
11:09.42 | itsnotabigtruck | aegis isn't the main issue |
11:10.15 | itsnotabigtruck | and yeah, for otr, there has to be go secure/go clear/confirm fingerprint buttons |
11:10.24 | itsnotabigtruck | maybe some sort of key management gui |
11:10.43 | itsnotabigtruck | i really don't like otr but the alternatives are worse, secure im seems to be at a standstill lately |
11:12.02 | Tronic | I really hate the fact that open-source internet telephony fails so miserably. |
11:12.32 | Tronic | is still looking something as easy to as Skype and with encryption built-in and always in use. |
11:13.48 | Tronic | Add "OTR" verification for key signatures if you wish. Do not enforce not recording calls even when OTR is used. |
11:14.38 | itsnotabigtruck | well, there has to be verification of some sort |
11:14.47 | itsnotabigtruck | MITM attacks are only rare because popular security protocols defend against them |
11:15.31 | itsnotabigtruck | if web browsers didn't validate certificates, do you think isps in many parts of the world wouldn't start just mitming every ssl connection that's made? |
11:15.57 | Tronic | Do you really think that they cannot attack via CAs? |

11:17.05 | Tronic | I think the main part of security comes from verifying that the key stays the same. If you connect via a secure network the first time, you can tell that you are directly connected with the same peer even when on insecure network. |
11:17.08 | itsnotabigtruck | e.g. if gmail.com was suddenly signed by the us federal pki |
11:17.12 | itsnotabigtruck | you know something's up |
11:17.14 | itsnotabigtruck | :p |
11:18.39 | Tronic | But yes, key fingerprint verification is pretty basic stuff that just should be there. |
11:19.07 | Tronic | It still is quite impossible to fake that if verification is done over voice. |
11:19.37 | Tronic | What it cannot guarantee, of course, is that you are speaking with the right person to start with. |

12:00.29 | kevin_b | I think it is a Austrian variant |
12:02.29 | CissWit | kevin_b: you can know the exact variant you have by looking at the last 3 number of the version string |
12:03.33 | kevin_b | 480 |

12:06.10 | CissWit | it seems the only PR 1.1 update for PR_480 variant is via NSU. |
12:07.58 | CissWit | all those variants issues are really a pain. |
12:09.25 | itsnotabigtruck | CissWit: pretty sure those australian variants don't have any updates at all |
12:09.32 | itsnotabigtruck | you have to debrand by flashing |
12:10.45 | CissWit | itsnotabigtruck: D.Cent and rahulthewall say they had the update via NSU in the comments. |
12:11.13 | CissWit | I have the 232 variant, don't know what country it's from, but i got the OTA PR1.1 last week. |
12:12.42 | CissWit | hum, australian, i read austrian. |
12:13.24 | flux | this is great. n9 email program decides that all folders, including the spam folder, are as worthy of email notifications as everything else. is there a fix to this? or is the Inbox I'm seeing something the server virtually generates? |
12:13.33 | kevin_b | actually 480 is from switzerland / austrian area |

12:14.30 | matrixx | flux: which email service are you using? At least I haven't encountered such problem with hotmail or gmail |
12:15.02 | flux | matrixx, the "other mail server", a Dovect-based IMAP server |
12:15.22 | matrixx | hmm, don't know about that :/ |
12:15.48 | nid0 | by default the n9 wont even check subfolders for mail at the same time as the inbox unless you star them |
12:16.20 | flux | nid0, I do wonder what the 'Inbox' is in this case.. it appears to contain my all mail, including spam, but my actual INBOX doesn't have that.. |
12:16.28 | flux | the list of folders separately lists Inbox and INBOX |
12:17.08 | nid0 | I would check that server-side, as the n9 will simply fetch your account global imap folder subscriptions and display those |
12:18.06 | flux | the actual client-side problem seems to stem from that I cannot prevent it from using Inbox |

13:05.59 | itsnotabigtruck | i believe it's possible to trick out your warning screen with a replacement image |

13:06.07 | itsnotabigtruck | don't think anyone's actually implemented that yet |
13:06.30 | pa | but after all, what exactly changes? no aegis, but what else? and what does no aegis imply? |
13:06.38 | itsnotabigtruck | nah, you still have aegis |
13:07.07 | itsnotabigtruck | what changes is a) aegis operates using a different key, which messes up most aegis-related things |
13:07.18 | itsnotabigtruck | so you have to expunge everything when entering or leaving open mode |
13:07.34 | itsnotabigtruck | and b) a few things check if you're in open mode and allow you to do additional things |

20:33.27 | tehdely | my other phone has the tether plan, cause work pays for it :> |
20:33.34 | itsnotabigtruck | heh |
20:33.59 | itsnotabigtruck | you can probably put your line on media net and pay $10 less, but it might be tricky |
20:34.37 | tehdely | no need |
20:34.42 | itsnotabigtruck | they started wisening up to that sort of thing a long time ago so it's probably not so easy anymore to get them to reclassify your line as not having a smartphone |
20:35.03 | tehdely | i had to switch to a micro-SIM when my N9 arrived |
20:35.10 | tehdely | and they actually insisted on having an IMEI to activate the SIM |
20:35.21 | tehdely | they know what i've got |
20:35.22 | *** part/#harmattan djszapi (~lpapp@kde/developer/lpapp) |
20:35.24 | itsnotabigtruck | whereas a few years ago you could put your sim into a dumb-phone, call them up and tell them you're no longer using a smartphone, and give them your dumb-phone's imei |
20:35.36 | itsnotabigtruck | then enable data unlimited/media net and put the sim back in the smartphone |
20:35.47 | itsnotabigtruck | even if you just bought a smartphone on contract |
20:36.07 | itsnotabigtruck | a few years ago = before the iphone made data plans serious business |
20:36.40 | itsnotabigtruck | also strange...i got my microsim without even having the N9 with me |
20:39.07 | itsnotabigtruck | tehdely: did you go to a corporate store or a franchisee |
20:39.22 | tehdely | corporate store |
20:39.31 | tehdely | the guy actually screwed up, too |
20:39.39 | tehdely | when i went to my office and unboxed the N9 and put the SIM in, the SIM wasn't activated |
20:39.41 | tehdely | had to do it over th ephone |
20:39.46 | tehdely | but he did actually scan the IMEI right off the box, at the store |
20:39.50 | DocScrutinizer | you got strange business over there |
20:39.59 | rigo | :) was my reaction too |
20:40.06 | DocScrutinizer | here nobody cares what phone you put your sim in |
20:40.11 | rigo | DocScrutinizer, they also pay to receive calls |
20:40.19 | DocScrutinizer | indeed :-P |
20:41.18 | rigo | here works only as long as you don't go from one state to another. Before the Commission came down on them, the austrian providers took 3.50€ per minute for roaming |
20:41.52 | itsnotabigtruck | rigo: except that US phone plans usually come with zillions of domestic minutes anyway |
20:41.58 | itsnotabigtruck | the real ripoff is text messaging |
20:42.29 | rigo | ha! they know the youngsters |
20:42.54 | itsnotabigtruck | with at&t, you get a choice between $0.25 per sms (in and out), or $15 to $20/mo for flat rate unlimited |
20:42.59 | itsnotabigtruck | both are a scam, really |
20:43.38 | DocScrutinizer | muhaha, pay for inbound SMS |
20:43.38 | itsnotabigtruck | they used to have a few steps in between but they got rid of them in order to force everyone onto the expensive unlimited plan |
20:43.38 | rigo | hm, at current conversion rate that's equivalent to here :) |
20:43.53 | DocScrutinizer | as if I had a choice |
20:43.54 | rigo | inbound???? |
20:43.57 | itsnotabigtruck | DocScrutinizer: yeah, that's the really evil thing |
20:44.00 | tehdely | i'm on a family plan with my work phone + my boyfriend's iPhone |
20:44.03 | tehdely | i actually get a pretty good eal |
20:44.12 | itsnotabigtruck | you can choose not to answer a call, but you get the text message whether you wanted it or not |
20:44.13 | tehdely | we share one plan with unlimited SMS, MMS, and mobile-to-any-mobile calling |
20:44.17 | tehdely | so even if they're not on AT&T the call is free |
20:44.36 | tehdely | really it just translates to unlimited, period, since i make so few calls that aren't to a mobile that they fall under whatever our minutes allotment is |
20:44.38 | tehdely | which is, i think, 700 |
20:44.43 | itsnotabigtruck | tehdely: are you sure about that? i'm pretty sure "mobile to mobile" always means in-network |
20:44.53 | tehdely | no |
20:44.54 | itsnotabigtruck | but right now i have thousands of rollover minutes so it doesn't really matter |
20:45.00 | tehdely | this is a new thing |
20:45.03 | tehdely | mobile-to-ANY-mobile |
20:45.07 | tehdely | emphasis on "any" |
20:45.07 | itsnotabigtruck | hrm |
20:45.18 | tehdely | AT&T has been pulling out all the stops to keep customers, ever since Verizon got the iPhone |
20:45.25 | tehdely | they went: "oh shit! we're expensive as hell and our network is awful!" |
20:45.34 | tehdely | it would have been nice if they had realized or cared about that earlier, but no |
20:46.28 | rigo | have a nice WE all! |
20:46.31 | rigo | bye |

22:18.50 | pa | canc key |
22:18.54 | pa | i see only backspace |
22:19.03 | ajalkane | you mean delete key? |
22:20.13 | ajalkane | or esc? |
22:20.56 | pa | yes delete sorry |
22:21.09 | ajalkane | you need to use swype keyboard for that |
22:21.16 | pa | ah |
22:21.20 | pa | its not there otherwise? |
22:21.23 | pa | i see |
22:21.29 | ajalkane | no, unless you edit the keyboard mappings |
22:21.57 | ajalkane | but the swype keyboard has many other goodies also, like arrow keys etc. |
22:23.12 | pa | i'd like |
22:23.22 | pa | but i tried to turn it on on 1.1 and it didnt really work |
22:23.40 | ajalkane | did not? Has worked for me spendidly. What's the problem? |
22:24.05 | ieatlint | note that in the terminal, there is an esc button |
22:24.13 | pa | it did not appear at all |
22:24.17 | pa | even it was there |
22:24.18 | ieatlint | so if that's where you want it.. |
22:24.25 | ajalkane | you need to swipe to get into the swype ;) |
22:24.27 | pa | if i was pressing in the black, some keys were popping up |
22:24.33 | *** join/#harmattan admiral0_ (~admiral0@adsl-ull-90-129.48-151.net24.it) |
22:24.34 | ieatlint | it won't be on the keyboard, it'll be part of a toolbar just above it |
22:25.05 | ajalkane | humm... that's weird |
22:26.10 | ieatlint | well, the terminal may be in select mode... there's a button in the upper right to toggle that |
22:26.31 | ieatlint | when it's not in select mode, if the esc key isn't visible, swipe left/right on the terminal window and it will change the buttons shown on the toolbar |
22:26.39 | ieatlint | (god, this sounds a lot more complicated than it is) |
22:27.05 | pa | ah yes that i noticed |
22:28.29 | ajalkane | so when you activate swype, you just get black rectangle where keyboard is supposed to be? |
22:29.00 | pa | yes thats what i was getting |
22:29.14 | pa | now im trying again |
22:29.33 | ajalkane | try swyping the keyboard... you know, like when you change languages in the stock keyboard |
22:29.48 | ajalkane | maybe that could resolve it. If not, rebooting phone could be the answer. |
22:30.09 | ieatlint | and don't confuse swipe, swype and the verb swipe... they're all different things :P |
22:30.30 | ajalkane | yeah, forgive my drunken banter with mixed y's and i's |
22:31.55 | pa | now it looks like it works |
22:32.40 | ajalkane | anyway, I just got a white N9 so I'm in a better mood than usually. |
22:33.00 | ieatlint | yay white |
22:33.18 | ajalkane | So shiny |
22:33.37 | ieatlint | i need a pink one |
22:33.48 | ieatlint | then i'll have the full set |
22:35.18 | ajalkane | In my hours of desperation, when I thought I could never afford N9 (today), I tried to trade my gift Lumia in workplace's intranet to N9. No one took the bait, even as I embellished it with all the right words like "magnificient Lumia, Windows, "dead-on-arrival" N9 etc." |
22:36.13 | ieatlint | i'm shocked |
22:36.27 | ieatlint | who wouldn't want a windows phone... |
22:36.32 | ajalkane | Ah no... I already tried that yesterday I think. Today I was ready to pull the trigger to exchange it with some anonymous person from internet. But the N9 would have been black 16GB |
22:37.19 | ajalkane | Yeah, I even tried "Pissed off you don't have Windows in your pocket?" line. I'm not sure what's wrong with those people. But I'm stuck with my Lumia. |
22:37.24 | ieatlint | haha, i'd be tempted to do that... another n9 > lumia 800 |
22:37.27 | ajalkane | At least it has Fruit Ninja. Good times. |
22:38.17 | ajalkane | Yeah. I haven't used the Lumia for 2 months. Used it for 2 weeks after getting it. After that it's been sleeping it's coffin. |
22:38.31 | ajalkane | * in its |
22:38.33 | ieatlint | i just use my lumia phone to anonymously call 911 and report people i don't like as drunk drivers |
22:38.38 | ieatlint | it serves its purpose... |
22:38.54 | *** join/#harmattan slingr (santas@will.one.day.hack-the-pla.net) |
22:38.57 | ajalkane | It's a portable gaming console for me. |
22:40.15 | ajalkane | It's unbelievably hard to get multi-sim from operators in Finland. I want to have 2 sim cards, one for N950 and one for the N9. Seems to be hard. |
22:41.18 | pa | itsnotabigtruck, yes this screen is a dust attractor |
22:41.20 | DrGrov | ajalkane: I know a solution for this. Heard it from a Saunalahti guy. |
22:41.21 | pa | jeez |
22:41.50 | ajalkane | DrGrov: yeah? What's the solution? I was just today in the shop and the clerck just said "no can do" |
22:42.21 | DrGrov | ajalkane: You would get 2 similar SIM cards with the same number, like a Mokkula and regular phone SIM cards. The problem is that one of them is the active one that gets all SMS / calls but you could use both still but one remains active and the other passive. |
22:42.59 | DrGrov | ajalkane: Which operator did you go to and talked today? |
22:43.07 | ajalkane | DrGrov: that's okay for me... I guess that's the MobiiliLaajakaista Plus? |
22:43.22 | pa | question: harmattan is open source. are open source also the stock applications? like the camera app, for instance |
22:43.22 | ajalkane | DrGrov: it was Elisa ShopIt |
22:44.01 | DrGrov | ajalkane: Yes, that is the one. It would give you two similar numbers and one remains active and gets all SMS / calls etc. but still could use the other and gives the same number etc. |
22:44.06 | ajalkane | But it may be that the clerk just didn't know what he was talking about. But I wouldn't want to buy into something that I'm not sold as like it's supposed to do what I want |
22:44.08 | DrGrov | That is how I was told, I trust the guy that told me |
22:44.43 | DrGrov | But of course, good to get some type of confirmation about it. I could try to ask the guy next time I go in to Elisa Shopit where I live. |
22:44.49 | ajalkane | DrGrov: yeah cool, I figured by reading the web-page it might work that way. I'll just need to go harass some other clerk with this information. |
22:45.06 | DrGrov | The problem is that most clerks will not tell you that straight |
22:45.36 | DrGrov | Since they do not know it that it works like that. This guy I talked with is a serious haXXor and figured it out in some odd way and told me. |
22:45.38 | DrGrov | LOL |
22:45.46 | ajalkane | Yeah I think I'll just go asking for MobiiliLaajakaista Plus and start drilling from there deeper. I'm not sure why they seem reluctant to sell multi-sims nowadays |
22:46.18 | DrGrov | But be sure that you can actually get it, they might try to "kusettaa" you :/ |
22:46.28 | DrGrov | Piss you in the face when you are not watching :/ |
22:46.43 | itsnotabigtruck | pa: no, not really |
22:46.43 | SpeedEvil | http://aaisp.net.uk/ - have stupidly flexible phone plans. |
22:46.48 | SpeedEvil | But only in the UK |
22:46.48 | ajalkane | Hehe yeah... that's why I want assurance when I'm buying into it. |
22:46.53 | itsnotabigtruck | basically none of the GUI except a few core components is open source |
22:47.20 | DrGrov | ajalkane: I would not want to read in Ilta Sanomat or Iltalehti about a Finnish guy going berserk in a Elisa ShopIt and causing mass havoc :) |
22:47.21 | pa | so basically if one ask for an enhancement, its only up to nokia. I cannot even do it myself? |
22:47.33 | itsnotabigtruck | pa: exactly :/ i really wish they'd open source everything practical |
22:47.37 | itsnotabigtruck | well, probably most people here do |
22:47.54 | ajalkane | DrGrov: I was really close to doing that when I noticed all N9 stands were replaced by Lumia stands. And all traces of N9s were removed. |
22:48.01 | itsnotabigtruck | obviously some things have legitimate business reasons going against it, but a lot of it seems to be "ugh, can't deal with the lawyers" |
22:48.02 | pa | i would like to have a manual focus slider on the camera f. ex |
22:48.13 | itsnotabigtruck | well, it might make sense to build an entirely new camera app |
22:48.17 | pa | but nokia dont seem too eager to accept my request |
22:48.25 | Jare | blah, you have to pay extra for mobiililaajakaista plus, but a few years ago you could get multisim (5 sims) relatively cheaply |
22:48.32 | itsnotabigtruck | PR1.2 comes with libfcam, which is apparently a library for providing super low level camera access |
22:48.33 | DrGrov | ajalkane: I love to see that the N9 is pulled from the shelves. Makes me feel special. |
22:48.49 | itsnotabigtruck | there's an app called fcamera for n900 that uses it for raw photos, exposure bracketing, and things like that |
22:48.54 | pa | ah creat |
22:49.01 | pa | great |
22:49.06 | pa | maybe it can be even ported |
22:49.13 | ajalkane | Jare: It's only 5€ more from my current, and a bit faster data connection too |
22:49.38 | DrGrov | But Mobiililaajakaista Plus is the only way I know about. I do not know any other way to get multi sim |
22:50.04 | itsnotabigtruck | also ajalkane: i wasn't aware such a thing even existed |
22:50.05 | DrGrov | ajalkane: What type of contract do you have? Something gigantic? |
22:50.07 | ajalkane | DrGrov: hehe... I'm just getting a "I pity the fool..." feeling when I see someone with fake N9. |
22:50.11 | itsnotabigtruck | sounds like it's basically 2 lines |
22:50.23 | itsnotabigtruck | a data only line, and a data/voice line |
22:50.41 | DrGrov | ajalkane: I think that the N9 is the last good phone Nokia made |
22:50.41 | itsnotabigtruck | the two sims need to have two IMSIs in order to coexist |
22:50.41 | ajalkane | DrGrov: No I just have the normal unlimited data that's something like 10€ per month. MobiiliLaajakaista is 14.90 |
22:50.43 | DrGrov | But the new 41 Mpix camera phone Nokia is releasing looks quite nice. |
22:51.09 | DrGrov | ajalkane: Ok, I got myself the DNA Joustava 12000...... |
22:51.13 | DrGrov | runs and hides |
22:51.15 | itsnotabigtruck | ajalkane: "fake N9" as in the lumia, or counterfeits |
22:51.19 | ajalkane | DrGrov: yeah last good one for many years to come. I guess until 2015/2016 at least. Doesn't bother me. My previous phone was N95 so I'm willing to wait. |
22:51.55 | itsnotabigtruck | yeah, that's the thing, truly awesome phones don't need replacing every year or two |
22:51.56 | ajalkane | I looked at DNA but they don't have multi-sim. And I really need to use my N950 also for development. |
22:52.13 | ajalkane | itsnotabigtruck: fake N9 as in Lumia ;) |
22:52.22 | itsnotabigtruck | they're built to last and refuse to go obsolete |
22:52.27 | DrGrov | ajalkane: The only reason I went with DNA is that I got a good bandwith on Matkanetti 384... LOL |
22:53.27 | DrGrov | And I get a good signal anywhere I go with DNA. But I am thinking about changing to Saunalahti, not sure though. Perhaps later this year. |
22:54.07 | ajalkane | itsnotabigtruck: true true, N9 was the first phone I was truly excited to get since N95 (N900 was close but not enough), so I'm quite sure I'll be using it for many years to come. |
22:54.28 | ajalkane | DrGrov: why back to saunalahti? |
22:54.42 | DrGrov | ajalkane: I have never had Saunalahti before, I might test it :) |
22:54.50 | Jare | I was surprised how well voip seemed to work via DNA a couple of days ago, when my friend called |
22:55.08 | Jare | there's no way I could get that low latency with Saunalahti |
22:55.14 | DrGrov | My biggest problem is that I can not seem to find the perfect phone. I gone through 9 or 10 phones in 2 years. |
22:55.19 | ajalkane | hehe... but saunalahti just uses Elisa's network. DNA uses Sonera, right? |
22:55.29 | DrGrov | DNA has its own network |
22:55.32 | DrGrov | Yes? |
22:55.37 | Jare | yep |
22:55.50 | DrGrov | Jare: You mean DNA has its own network correct? |
22:55.58 | Jare | yes it has |
22:56.14 | ajalkane | Hmm... cool... Somenoe tell DNA to start selling multi-sims |
22:56.18 | DrGrov | Ok, I am happy with DNA. Works well in the surroundings where I move |
22:56.55 | itsnotabigtruck | ajalkane: can't you just get a 2nd data only line |
22:57.03 | itsnotabigtruck | pretty sure this multisim arrangement is in no way "normal" |
22:57.17 | ajalkane | itsnotabigtruck: Yes I could, but I want it to work also as a phone. |
22:57.46 | ajalkane | itsnotabigtruck: when I'm in middle of developing something and testing it, I want to take N950 with me but still receive and make calls with the same number |
22:57.56 | DrGrov | I require multi sim, god damn it. Why does it have to be so hard to get it? |
22:58.17 | DrGrov | Then I could finally breath a sign of relief to have 2 good phones combined and making me smile and not always look like I have betrayed myself |
22:58.39 | ajalkane | I don't get it either. I guess they're trying to cash more money by forcing people to buy multiple accounts. I don't know. It seems stupid to me. I'm not buying multiple accounts. |
22:59.17 | DrGrov | Yeah, feels stupid to keep buying more and more just to get a simple thing as multi sim. |
22:59.50 | DrGrov | I would love to get out in the summer with the "lighter" phone and then when I feel like taking the N9 I could do that as well |
23:00.14 | DrGrov | Certain situations are not that good for a N9 if I must choose which phone. Regular Nokia 50 phone or a N9. |
23:01.01 | ajalkane | Yep. If it was a piece of cake I would take 3 sim cards, and then I could take Lumia with me to summer cottage. "Oops fell into water, no matter it's just a Lumia!" |
23:01.14 | DrGrov | ajalkane: LOL :) |
23:01.20 | Tronic | I got Mobiililaajakaista Plus just for the multi-sim, so I guess their business does work. |
23:01.23 | DrGrov | Well, I am off. Thanks for the talk |
23:01.30 | ajalkane | cya |
23:01.47 | Tronic | It's not that expensive, anyway, if you mainly use data. |
23:02.02 | ajalkane | Tronic: so calls/sms/mms works on both sims? |
23:03.41 | Jare | well it depends... it might be a good choice, if you get the promised bandwidth everywhere |
23:03.47 | *** part/#harmattan DrGrov (~C.J@a91-153-77-41.elisa-laajakaista.fi) |
23:03.59 | Jare | otherwise I'm just going to stick with the cheapest one (512kps) |
23:04.02 | Jare | kbps |
23:04.27 | ajalkane | I have 384, I guess my account is just that old |
23:04.38 | Tronic | ajalkane: SMS are only received on the primary SIM, other than that everything works on both. |
23:04.49 | Tronic | You can even call yourself and it will ring the other phone. |
23:04.59 | Tronic | Normally when someone calls you, both phones ring. |
23:05.30 | *** join/#harmattan faenil (~faenil@131.114.170.32) |
23:05.38 | ajalkane | Tronic: okay too bad... but I guess I must live with that as there's no better alternative |
23:06.18 | Jare | I would be interested in testing the more expensive data plans though |
23:06.48 | Jare | just to see how bad qos settings they are using for the cheapest one ;) |
23:06.59 | Tronic | Jare: Elisa has a very good network and you actually do get several megabits even in cities and in far-away locations (like our family summer cabin, in Nauvo, on an island with no roads). |
23:08.12 | Tronic | Compare that to DNA (Welho) which was heavily congested in Helsinki and that I didn't even try in remote locations. |
23:11.33 | itsnotabigtruck | ajalkane: wait, so you're capped to umts speed? |
23:12.42 | ajalkane | itsnotabigtruck: hmm? UMTS can theoretically go faster, doesn't it? It's in kbps |
23:13.36 | itsnotabigtruck | ajalkane: vanilla umts only goes up to 384 kb/s both ways |
23:13.50 | itsnotabigtruck | which is what i thought you said you were limited to |
23:14.01 | itsnotabigtruck | i.e. very slow compared to the various sorts of HSPA |
23:14.27 | ajalkane | yeah, that's what I'm limited to. I have very old account. I think something like 4-5 year old account. |
23:14.53 | ajalkane | But I don't really need anything faster. The latencies are more annoying to me. |
23:15.03 | itsnotabigtruck | how much more does it cost to get real speed? |
23:15.27 | itsnotabigtruck | i was slightly disappointed in 2 Mb/1 Mb speed, 384 kb is pretty lame |
23:17.32 | ajalkane | itsnotabigtruck: seems to be 15€ for 1Mbit/s and 21€ for up to 15Mbit/s (this one I wouldn't trust to give reliable performance) |
23:18.19 | ajalkane | But I dunno... 384 has been plenty for me. I just download feeds and surf web-sites. I'm not streaming videos or downloading torrents with my phone. |
23:18.20 | itsnotabigtruck | so $28/mo for the HSPA+ service...is there a usage cap? |
23:18.28 | ajalkane | No cap |
23:18.28 | Jare | what? I'm seeing 13.5€/month for the "15Mbps" |
23:18.49 | ajalkane | Jare: I'm looking at Mobiililaajakaista Plus, maybe there's cheaper plans? |
23:18.54 | itsnotabigtruck | that's pretty steep but it also sounds par for the course, and no cap |
23:19.02 | itsnotabigtruck | though maybe they have some soft cap stuff going on |
23:19.11 | itsnotabigtruck | e.g. reach 5 gb and you get throttled to 384k |
23:19.33 | ajalkane | I don't think they have, Finland has pretty strict policies nowadays on that kind of stuff. |
23:19.38 | Jare | ah, well it includes an usb modem and multisim |
23:19.40 | ajalkane | I just got a call from my operator about that |
23:20.11 | ajalkane | They lowered my costs because the new laws require they must be able to give what they promise |
23:26.26 | itsnotabigtruck | usually tight regulation often causes operators to set up more caps and restrictions |
23:26.39 | itsnotabigtruck | in order to make sure everything's laid out explicitly while covering their asses |
23:26.57 | itsnotabigtruck | e.g. "unlimited" turning into a 1gb cap |
23:27.59 | ajalkane | Could be. But Finland is pretty small country. I don't think here's that kind of problems (at least yet) with running out of bandwidth. |
23:29.42 | itsnotabigtruck | heh, true |
23:29.48 | itsnotabigtruck | though isn't e.g. helsinki pretty dense |
23:29.50 | njsf | bandwidth is a density problem, not absolute dimension IMO |
23:30.06 | itsnotabigtruck | right, density is the enemy |
23:30.15 | itsnotabigtruck | it's why cell phone data service is always going to suck in manhattan |
23:30.46 | njsf | well it sucks less because you have pretty dense Wifi coverage by the cell providers too |
23:31.32 | ajalkane | Helsinki has a population of 0.5 million people. It's dense by Finland's standards, but I guess it's globally a laughing stock when talking about dense ;) |
23:32.06 | Jare | nah, data limits are so yesterday's stuff. TeliaSonera is already putting together a content based billing system ;) |
23:32.32 | ajalkane | I guess they want to scare off the rest of their remaining customers? |
23:33.09 | Jare | dunno about that, but I'm sure others will use it in future too |
23:34.03 | ajalkane | I guess by then mobile internet will be unusable for me. |
23:34.18 | njsf | until it is the only option... |
23:34.19 | Jare | ...if there won't be any legislation against it |
23:35.12 | njsf | wired broadband expansion is basically stalled in the US |
23:35.12 | ajalkane | If I was dictator of Finland, I'd already have put some legislation about Elop in place. |
23:35.42 | itsnotabigtruck | njsf: aren't AT&T and VZW both actively rolling out their lte networks? |
23:35.49 | njsf | FiOS and U-verse existing markets are well served all others are screwed |
23:35.57 | itsnotabigtruck | clear (wimax) is pretty much dead in the water these days |
23:36.11 | njsf | itsnotabigtruck: wired LTE ?! never heard of it |
23:36.28 | itsnotabigtruck | oops |
23:36.29 | njsf | and yes, VZW and ATT want the world |
23:36.30 | itsnotabigtruck | lol |
23:36.33 | itsnotabigtruck | i didn't see the wired part :p |
23:36.46 | njsf | where wireless internet has greater advertised speed |
23:36.59 | njsf | specially since "net neutrality" does not apply there |
23:37.05 | itsnotabigtruck | yeah, it comes down to comcast and fios most of the time |
23:37.10 | njsf | and they can make up whatever filtering they want |
23:37.12 | itsnotabigtruck | and fios rollout has pretty much stopped |
23:37.37 | njsf | I could have 100 Mbps from my cable provider |
23:37.37 | itsnotabigtruck | and comcast really only upgraded their network where verizon put fios in |
23:38.01 | itsnotabigtruck | you can already get 50 Mb/s from comcast, if you're in an area that has fios, and you're willing to pay through the nose |
23:38.04 | njsf | but when I had 30Mbps I noticed I never used more than the "basic account " 15Mpbs anyway |
23:38.09 | itsnotabigtruck | (it's well past $100/mo) |
23:38.17 | njsf | so I save a lot a month there |
23:38.28 | njsf | for 100$ I could get 101Mbps |
23:38.37 | njsf | now I have 15 for 30$ |
23:38.51 | njsf | which you could say is a worse deal that 100 for 100$ |
23:38.56 | itsnotabigtruck | the thing is that a large portion of servers on the net don't have wide enough uplink themselves to fill very fast residential connections |
23:39.07 | njsf | but why pay $70 for capacity I am not using... |
23:39.10 | itsnotabigtruck | that and lots of bottlenecked routes |
23:39.40 | itsnotabigtruck | even if they cap your connection at zillions of megs, you can rarely ever use more than 20 megs or so unless you're connecting to something a) nearby, b) on a fast pipe |
23:40.13 | itsnotabigtruck | i mean, that sort of thing is why CDNs are so huge now |
23:45.36 | itsnotabigtruck | http://talk.maemo.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=25305&stc=1&d=1330731753 |
23:45.48 | itsnotabigtruck | cool, it's a landscape keyboard layout that's like the n900 |
23:47.11 | ajalkane | sleep time, cya later |
