| brolin_empey | Why not have a Facebook account but use it only for Facebook Messenger? On my handheld computer I have only the application for Facebook Messenger, not Facebook, installed and on my desktop computers I always have the messenger.com Web site open but I have the facebook.com Web site open only when I actually want to use it. Facebook to me is primarily an instant messaging service, not a social networking service. | 00:24 |
|---|---|---|
| fishbulb | n900 doesn't do messenger does it? | 01:50 |
| sicelo | brolin_empey: application for Messenger is considered a nice spy app ... you may want to use the web site on your handheld as well | 09:40 |
| fishbulb | apart from a cool drum machine does this thing do more than make calls, browse very limited websites and do cli crap | 10:35 |
| KotCzarny | told you yesterday | 10:36 |
| KotCzarny | if you are whining, just change it to superduperlatest hexacore monster and be done | 10:36 |
| KotCzarny | it's for people that know it's 10 years old phone | 10:37 |
| fishbulb | man i have to pay for that. | 10:37 |
| sicelo | someone give fishbulb a hammer | 10:38 |
| fishbulb | a computer with these specs would work | 10:38 |
| KotCzarny | no. | 10:38 |
| KotCzarny | 256M of ram is not enough for todays browsing | 10:38 |
| fishbulb | that's wasteful | 10:38 |
| KotCzarny | (and thats what you need) | 10:38 |
| fishbulb | i really only need maps that work | 10:39 |
| KotCzarny | it equals to 'browsing' today | 10:39 |
| fishbulb | maps? | 10:39 |
| sicelo | fishbulb: android has working maps. why don't you just use it? | 10:39 |
| sicelo | or iPhone | 10:39 |
| KotCzarny | you might try open street maps in the browser | 10:40 |
| KotCzarny | but they dont have navigation afair | 10:40 |
| KotCzarny | still might be good enough for simple address finding | 10:40 |
| fishbulb | because i have to pay for it. not sure which one to get, i was using linegeos on an expensive hand me down | 10:42 |
| fishbulb | but that project is not trustworthy and i don't have 800 euro to spend on something i basically hate | 10:42 |
| KotCzarny | i recently bought alcatel for 48usd | 10:43 |
| KotCzarny | 1gb ram, quad core mediatek soc, 5.5" ips screen | 10:43 |
| KotCzarny | seems it would fit your use case perfectly | 10:43 |
| sicelo | paper maps then :) | 10:45 |
| fishbulb | can i have it? | 10:45 |
| KotCzarny | sure, navigate to aliexpress.com and choose the one you like | 10:45 |
| KotCzarny | lots of cheap phones | 10:45 |
| fishbulb | that would be a phonebook here | 10:45 |
| Vajb | +1 for paper maps. | 12:08 |
| KotCzarny | paper maps can get outdated quickly | 12:12 |
| KotCzarny | and lack interactive features, for example traffic report | 12:12 |
| inz | Real men draw their maps with a pencil and update regularly. | 12:15 |
| KotCzarny | pencil? pencil?>! | 12:15 |
| KotCzarny | real men drive right through ! | 12:16 |
| inz | They take over the government and build a straight road to wherever they need to go. | 12:18 |
| MoeIcenowy | paper maps cannot schedule public traffic :-( | 12:46 |
| MoeIcenowy | and currently I must rely on some closed service for this :-( | 12:46 |
| MoeIcenowy | to be honest for OSM nowadays I only use it for walking (I have no driving license) | 12:48 |
| MoeIcenowy | or cycling | 12:48 |
| MoeIcenowy | BTw is there a good OSM reader on Fremantle? | 12:48 |
| KotCzarny | browser? | 12:50 |
| KotCzarny | :) | 12:50 |
| KotCzarny | https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nokia_N900 | 12:51 |
| KotCzarny | heh | 12:51 |
| KotCzarny | osm2go looked nice | 12:51 |
| KotCzarny | https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osm2go | 12:52 |
| MoeIcenowy | I think I can try Mappero? | 13:00 |
| MoeIcenowy | btw seems that SpeedyHAM cannot workaround network speed issue... | 13:02 |
| sixwheeledbeast | It doesn't improve network speed only the slowness of HAM stock. | 13:05 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Real men ride a motorcycle and don't worry about traffic... | 13:05 |
| MoeIcenowy | what should I do when HAM reports "gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-extra" is missing? | 13:07 |
| MoeIcenowy | I'm trying to install Mappero on a system w/ CSSU | 13:07 |
| KotCzarny | maybe you miss nokia mirror repos? | 13:08 |
| MoeIcenowy | oh I used linenoise mirror and it reports failure to update | 13:09 |
| KotCzarny | sixwheeledbeast: six wheeled monstercycle? | 13:11 |
| MoeIcenowy | HAM translation issue | 13:13 |
| MoeIcenowy | oh sorry | 13:13 |
| MoeIcenowy | I forgot zh_CN is not official | 13:13 |
| MoeIcenowy | maybe I should report to zh_CN translation maintainer? | 13:13 |
| KotCzarny | if he/she is alive, why not | 13:14 |
| MoeIcenowy | I doubt whether they're alive | 13:15 |
| sixwheeledbeast | KotCzarny: 6x6 for off-road, no traffic scenario obviously ;) | 17:44 |
| sixwheeledbeast | sounds like nokia repos are down in that case, same with "Connect with Nokia Suite" type message | 17:45 |
| sixwheeledbeast | down == incorrect/not installed etc | 17:45 |
