**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed May 02 03:00:04 2018 May 02 08:15:14 I also have that issue of being in a nearby ocean. May 02 12:33:23 swimming? ;-= May 02 12:33:32 ;-) even May 02 12:34:44 I noticed unusual GPS ... issues... since 27th of Apr. Maybe USA is nervous? May 02 12:35:34 or google maps just deployed a broken update May 02 12:43:52 Waterproof N900? May 02 12:44:23 they better had sealed it May 02 12:44:52 the N900 is one of the most water damage susceptable devices I know May 02 12:57:36 nano-coating maybe? May 02 13:20:13 Simply don't swim with it. May 02 13:29:07 A watertight plastic bag should do it. May 02 16:05:21 DocScrutinizer05: I don't have '/dev/input/event4' on my system event0=powerbutton event1=keypad event2=headphone jack event3=touchscreen maybe event4 pops up when connecting some bluetooth device May 02 16:15:03 aaah that makes sense, many thanks :-) May 02 16:15:11 yes, I guess it's BT related May 02 16:16:02 I connected and disconnected my BT headset a dozen times every day, last 2 weeks May 02 16:16:14 audio got pretty confused May 02 16:17:09 it's one of those smart BT headsets that can pair and connect to two devices concurrently May 02 16:17:55 and it consists of two separate earpieces, so when I power up the second one, the first ine disconnects and then it reconnects as stereo headset May 02 16:18:30 and that prolly been a little bit too much for poor old N900 ;-) May 02 16:19:21 halftux: did you manage to expand the rich coredumps? May 02 16:20:03 rich-core-extract May 02 16:35:53 I had a short look into these files. But I need to learn how to get helpful information out of it so I installed gdb and this crash-reporter(sp-rich-core) May 02 16:46:26 btw you have a nice music collection reported by the racker. Will not pass any privat information to others. But keep in mind that others could find privat information in these core dumps. May 02 16:46:50 tracker May 02 16:53:50 I pondered that and found there's no valuable info in them May 02 16:54:02 no critical info rather May 02 16:54:48 IP? IMEI? WLAN names? I don't care May 02 16:55:01 my music? be my guest May 02 16:55:45 phone numbers? ohmy May 02 16:56:22 sure I never would want to share all that to Google, but in a coredump I really don't mind May 02 16:58:28 to be honst nowadays you have to make sure you don't stand out from the masses by *not* disclosing pointless info May 02 16:58:38 yes there was no critical inormation May 02 16:59:01 soon everybody without facebook account won't get a job anymore, and a few years later you get arrested for such crime May 02 17:00:36 prolly the only way ahead is not to guard your info but to create fake identities and carefully maintain them with fake data May 02 17:03:18 obviously refugees can't enter USA at all if they don't have a social media identity the immigration authorities can review on your mandatory smartphone May 02 17:04:41 I actually already heard of jobs you can't get when you don't disclose your facebook account so the boss in spe could review it May 02 17:05:00 depressing times May 02 17:05:31 and I don't think it will get any better anytime soon May 02 17:05:45 ..i'm still receiving emails with CV document linked into their FB account. But probably it's a joke. :) May 02 17:06:16 hi xes! May 02 17:06:20 all fine? May 02 17:06:37 I think there was also a german au-pair girl who got rejected by the Immigration because of her fb account May 02 17:06:54 hi DocScrutinizer05! Fine and busy, too busy. And you? May 02 17:07:10 burnout and a mess May 02 17:07:33 getting old too May 02 17:08:01 ..every day i suppose. :) isn't it? May 02 17:08:08 indeed May 02 17:09:48 prolly need a new concept for (making a) living, sth like breeding pearl oisters in Honolulu or somesuch May 02 17:10:39 or sitting on costa de la liz every day, and reporting / blogging about the weather May 02 17:10:49 de la luz actually May 02 17:11:58 how old was L. Ron Hubbard when he founded Scientology? ;-P May 02 17:12:48 it's a nice idea, but you know change a little everyday is harder than change everything in your life May 02 17:13:08 halftux: now go figure this au-pair would have claimed "I *got no* FB account!" May 02 17:14:02 halftux: do you think this would have been to her favor? May 02 17:15:33 I'm pretty sure you need a FB account to fill in the info about it to your visa application, or your visa will just get denied for unspecified reasons May 02 17:16:21 and an obviously just created "empty" account won't do either May 02 17:17:47 maybe for a while you can get away with "lmgtfy joerg reisenweber openmoko" or somesuch May 02 17:18:14 I got an esta permit and not giving FB account information because I dont have, but was many times already there May 02 17:20:24 esta? May 02 17:20:51 maybe it is different when you do your first esta application May 02 17:21:20 short visa 90 days or less May 02 17:21:39 sure applies for first applications only, otherwise they already have a file of you May 02 17:21:49 US? May 02 17:23:08 yes for the us I think it is valid for two years then you need to do the application again May 02 17:23:44 had one of those in iirc 1986 or somesuch May 02 17:23:50 and the last time I did this there were asking for FB account May 02 17:25:34 esta=electronic system for travel authorization May 02 20:02:05 There is no way I will be forced into creating an account for anything. May 02 20:06:29 Sounds like a Challenge **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu May 03 03:00:05 2018
