May 02 04:16:11 well... true.. but they did get the update first May 02 04:16:26 that was ages ago. means nothing now May 02 04:16:46 hmm... how would I get the update? I'm meta-doctored lol May 02 04:16:58 fail May 02 04:22:10 how would sprint phones get 2.2 tomorrow? May 02 04:22:58 HBO.com should be taken out back and shot! May 02 04:25:04 sugardave: its a rumor May 02 04:25:36 how would it happen? May 02 04:25:38 they are supposedly getting 2.2 on May 2nd May 02 04:25:46 explain how I would get 2.2 on my pre - May 02 04:25:49 OTA/Doctor I believe May 02 04:25:55 lemme find the chat.. May 02 04:25:59 not happening May 02 04:26:16 ever May 02 04:26:17 1.4.5 OTA to 2.2? May 02 04:26:19 hahahaha May 02 04:26:27 http://forums.precentral.net/palm-pixi/280957-palm-pixi-sprint-webos-2-0-a.html May 02 04:27:23 if it doesn't happen, zacky59 will be devastated lol May 02 04:28:30 whats good May 02 04:28:38 http://forums.precentral.net/palm-pixi/280957-palm-pixi-sprint-webos-2-0-a.html May 02 04:28:45 prediction: zacky59 is going to disappear after tomorrow May 02 04:28:52 possible 2.2 Sprint release tomorrow May 02 04:28:53 ajay: 2.2 on sprint tomorrow, apparently May 02 04:29:01 Loudergood: lol.. May 02 04:29:17 sugardave: are pigs flying tomorrow too? May 02 04:29:35 ajay: see link May 02 04:29:37 * ajay mourns his bitterness at hPalm.. it serves none! May 02 04:29:40 loadin May 02 04:30:02 maybe the Vz Pre2 can get 2.1 then.. ;^) May 02 04:30:09 ajay: well, it depends on if the demonic icecapades finish on time May 02 04:30:47 this is a strange chat May 02 04:31:01 yeah May 02 04:31:11 it's like, Zach is making the rep say this stuff.. May 02 04:31:16 some of it looks... fake.. kinda May 02 04:31:43 yeah, exactly. it looks like the rep is saying it to make the customer happy May 02 04:32:02 2.2 re: zacky59 May 02 04:32:04 its all a scam. May 02 04:32:31 You could go on the sprint chats and ask them when ios 4.3 is coming to the pre and they would tell you anything to make ya happy. May 02 04:32:55 where did his may2nd date even come from in the first place?! this is maddening.. why are you making me read this.. WHY........!!! May 02 04:33:05 lol May 02 04:33:16 Klownicle: you should do that :D May 02 04:34:21 PatrickC_Pre2: how about if you just summarize for me instead of me reading 155 more posts? :) May 02 04:34:42 or tell me where to find the proof in the thread May 02 04:34:44 ajay: basically the first post is all that needs to be read :) May 02 04:34:55 oh ok, good thing i asked.. :) May 02 04:34:58 and, its all rumor.. no hard evidence yet May 02 04:35:12 i can't see how sprint would release 2.2 tmrw.. May 02 04:35:42 but .. well, i find 2.1 on my vzPre+ to be shit, but then again, as i've discovered in recent days, my phone is shit.. (it's CONSTANTLY locking up) May 02 04:35:42 Mr ZACK the COMEDIAN, went on to say a sprint rep said it could happen at 11:59pm.. lmao May 02 04:36:32 * PatrickC_Pre2 waits :D May 02 04:36:52 Im not even going to check precentral till tuesday :-p May 02 04:37:25 I check P|C all the time May 02 04:37:41 for news on and Palm/HP related stuff May 02 04:38:03 Klownicle: that'll teach them to let forum posts like this happen.. ;^) May 02 04:38:09 Lol May 02 04:38:30 Ill no doubt end up checking around tommorrow but im really not expecting to see it. May 02 04:38:40 Im on the pc all day so its inevitble for me to check. May 02 04:38:44 ^^ same here May 02 04:38:51 I want it, but not getting my hopes ip May 02 04:38:53 up* May 02 04:39:05 my sprint pre- needs to go in for repair anyway May 02 04:39:08 PatrickC_Pre2: why does the meta-doctor solution not suffice for you? May 02 04:39:16 I already got 2.1 on my pre minus, and it runs like a sloth most of the time. May 02 04:39:24 ajay: what do you mean? May 02 04:39:43 So I could only hope a offical version has some more tweaks or somthing. May 02 04:40:09 and carrier apps May 02 04:40:13 Sprint Nav May 02 04:40:20 oh, yea.. ;^) May 02 04:40:34 Patrick I hope you already have Sprint Nav on your pre... May 02 04:40:51 Klownicle: oh, I do.. but for others May 02 04:41:01 Thinkin about others ;) lol May 02 04:41:03 How sweet. May 02 04:41:13 I still haven't talked to anyone that tried to sideload sprint nav from 1.4.5 and failed yet, i'd like to know that someone competent was trying to do it May 02 04:41:31 ajay: it won't work May 02 04:41:34 ajay you don't use the 1.4.5 version May 02 04:41:37 I tried it, it fails out May 02 04:41:38 theres a 2.x version around. May 02 04:41:46 the 1.4.5 will NEVER work on 2.x May 02 04:42:07 weird the appcat notification sometimes reports 6 apps to update, but there's always only 5 May 02 04:42:32 Klownicle: like i said, until i hear from someone that tried (the right way) and failed i won't believe that. May 02 04:42:41 maybe i should pick up a sprint pre off CL and try.. May 02 04:43:13 ajay: what do you mean "the right way"? May 02 04:43:37 there are different ways to install apps.. May 02 04:43:46 some strategies install to /usr, others to /media May 02 04:44:00 I tried with regular palm-install and with -force-depends May 02 04:44:12 ajay its not possible. Just give it up. lol May 02 04:44:28 It has nothing to do with how its installed. May 02 04:44:29 and installing the packages in different orders (yeah, more then one package) May 02 04:44:30 Klownicle: i can't give up because i haven't started to try :) May 02 04:44:45 The service for 1.4.5 is not complaint with 2.x May 02 04:44:56 So its just not possible even if you tryed to you were blue in the face. May 02 04:45:15 ajay: I believe that the 1.4.5 version uses Java services, which are not in 2.x May 02 04:45:20 well then i'm glad there's a 2.x version around then :) May 02 04:45:49 the only reason i belabor the point is because nobody believed me that vzNav would work on 2.1, because everyone else was installing it the wrong way May 02 04:46:01 vzNav will work. May 02 04:46:11 Becuase theres a 2.x version out publically. May 02 04:46:15 on sprint? May 02 04:46:16 Its a different scenerio all together. May 02 04:46:37 Klownicle: but nobody was willing to believe that, because so many people failed to get it to work May 02 04:46:48 (initially) May 02 04:47:09 nobody != smart people ;) May 02 04:48:01 oh, there were multiple smart people that wouldn't believe me May 02 04:48:14 anyone have a case recommendation for the Pre2? May 02 04:48:36 i was hoping to stick with the holster, but i read somewhere they're horribly unattractive, plus i don't think there are any May 02 04:48:39 no case May 02 04:49:22 i was planning to just grab the phantom skinz someone rec'd on P|C.. there was another rec i forget.. May 02 04:52:12 I've had my pre2 for about 2-3 months, and had no case for it May 02 04:53:06 PatrickC_Pre2: to each their own? May 02 04:53:18 what? lol May 02 04:53:39 I don't get your point :) May 02 04:53:57 I don't have a case, and I've got no scratches on it :) May 02 04:54:38 PatrickC_Pre2: well, if i wasn't negligent with my pre (even w case) maybe it wouldn't be so screwed up, so unfortunately i doubt that'd work for me :) May 02 04:55:08 lol May 02 04:55:58 i wish there was a site that cached craigslist postings May 02 04:56:45 Wow, someone's selling a VzPre2 for $160, that sounds cheap May 02 04:59:13 hmm, all these ebayers posting "pre 2" stuff with pictures that are clearly the sprint pre .. color me skeptical May 02 04:59:21 (accessories) May 02 05:00:10 lol May 02 05:05:02 maybe i'm becoming less skilled, but i'm less frequently able to successfully pull off the battery hot swap (pre) May 02 05:05:19 oh, maybe it's just because all my OEM charger cables are going bad.. yeah.. that must be it May 02 05:07:36 keith: you around? May 02 05:11:49 man.. I tried to /nick keith and he's logged on lol May 02 05:12:11 PatrickC_Pre2: is there some identity theft you want to talk to us about? May 02 05:12:12 I'm off to bed May 02 05:12:14 night all May 02 05:12:22 ajay: heh May 02 05:12:28 hehe* May 02 05:12:45 night patrick May 02 05:12:55 hehe May 02 05:12:58 night :D May 02 05:13:23 night ajay May 02 05:13:55 wait.. any news?? lol May 02 05:14:42 nope.. no news.. night May 02 05:18:50 morning May 02 05:23:09 hi ajay! hi swisstomcat! May 02 05:23:30 dkirker: hey mister! May 02 05:23:38 dkirker: did you get that email i cc'd you on btw? May 02 05:24:35 ajay: Oh yeah! Sorry, I have been so busy, I forgot to reply. I think switching between SF and the South Bay has its positives and negatives. May 02 05:24:44 I'll respond back tonight or tomorrow night. May 02 05:25:10 dkirker: oh no reply necessary, i just wanted to make sure it went out.. i was hoping dude would reply back but clearly, i didn't inspire him! alas May 02 05:25:26 actually, yeah no a reply would be interesting.. scratch what i just wrote :) May 02 05:25:34 haha, ok :) May 02 05:32:05 hey dkirker May 02 05:32:58 if dkirker knows swisstomcat, do i also? May 02 05:33:23 maybe? May 02 05:33:30 i'm not very well known May 02 05:34:59 * ajay is not internationally known ...But I'm known to rock the microphon...Because I get stoopid, I mean outrageous May 02 05:35:32 swisstomcat: unless you were at one of those recent bay area webos events then no :) (was hoping d'd answer the q.. :) May 02 05:37:50 gotta go to work May 02 05:38:06 bbl May 02 05:42:40 dkirker, I'm assuming Universe is a new gui on the built in webkit? May 02 05:43:25 RagingMind: yes May 02 05:43:34 with a bunch of extra features May 02 05:44:19 so with the built in browser I've noticed that I can't leave pages open for too long, or when I come back they are blank and I have to reload May 02 05:44:27 does that still happen with universe? May 02 05:45:05 also happens sometimes just after a page has loaded, and it's *always* done this. after several doctors and after my phone's been replaced May 02 05:45:18 hmm May 02 05:45:27 have you tried scrolling the page when it does this? May 02 05:46:23 Yup... I get the address bar, but that's all that shows up until I reload May 02 05:46:34 hmm May 02 05:46:48 it happens often enough that I kinda gave up on using my phone for web browsing May 02 05:47:12 which deivce/OS> May 02 05:47:14 *? May 02 05:47:49 VZW Pre+ with 1.4.5 for most of the time, and recently updated to 2.1 with meta-doc and it still happens May 02 05:47:49 it may be a bug in the browser-app architecture (what it sounds like) May 02 05:48:01 hmm May 02 05:48:02 I was SO hoping that 2.1 would fix this May 02 05:48:22 RagingMind: that's a built in webkit problem I think May 02 05:48:39 or at least a webOS problem where I believe what happens is that it flushes idle pages to save memory May 02 05:48:43 there's a patch for the reloading, does that not help? May 02 05:48:49 it goes blank, and for scrolling I"m limited to an area screen-sized right around the address bar May 02 05:48:50 and has problems reloading them May 02 05:49:06 and hey dkirker :> May 02 05:49:17 SineOt, it also happens sometimes right after a page has finished loading May 02 05:49:29 i have that problem all the time, precentral app, etc, even right after loading May 02 05:50:11 actually the PC app is the worst, i shouldnt say etc May 02 05:50:16 premature garbage collection? May 02 05:50:21 PREmature har har har har :U May 02 05:50:25 but at least that one it's not rquiring a reload, i just have to scroll around May 02 05:50:31 oh. hah May 02 05:59:37 The best I can suggest is if somebody can send me detailed steps to reproduce this (I need details, like hardware, OS, URLs, how many cards should be opened) to my palm.com email, or to Chuq (I'm not in a customer facing position, so I don't believe that I am the one that can be fielding these kinds of requests). I can't make any promises. May 02 06:00:33 it happens often enough that I would really be shocked if someone didn't know about it already May 02 06:00:40 +1 May 02 06:01:58 * ajay thinks it's pretty interesting to watch his pre+ screen let him know w/ flickers before it locks up May 02 06:02:35 I am sure it has been taken care of... May 02 06:03:18 i want to ask someone why my resume looks so shitty, but really, i just need to start from scratch.. arg May 02 06:06:47 RagingMind: there's a patch for that I think May 02 06:07:54 you'd be surprised at the stuff that seems to slip through the cracks on projects :< May 02 06:08:00 even if they get constantly reported May 02 06:08:33 If you don't have a NOV number, then it's not reported. May 02 06:09:06 Even if you have a NOV number (which I do for the GPS Southern Hemisphere fatal bug in webOS 1.3.5 and later), it may still not be fixed over a year later ... May 02 06:10:02 I see "No Auto Refresh After Idle" May 02 06:10:15 sounds like it May 02 06:10:58 but what about when it happens just after the page finishes loading the first time and I never changed to a different card or anything? May 02 06:11:15 oh wait i don't think i have that.. May 02 06:11:16 then I suspect you've simply run out of memory May 02 06:11:32 i do think i have trouble getting universe to load pages the first time though, need to upgrade to 1.0 and be sure though.. May 02 06:13:12 If I've run out of memory then something else is broken, I know I've had it happen after having just a couple cards open with the web browser and nothing else May 02 06:29:35 computer's gettin slow+crazy, gtg.. May 02 06:41:27 Urggghhh. Easy way to get files off the emulator? May 02 06:41:39 novacom get or scp May 02 06:42:05 ah, scp! hadn't even thought of that May 02 08:28:45 morning May 02 08:30:20 'morning swisstomcat!

May 02 19:51:43 Well, the Pre3 has a 1.2Ghz processor and 512Mb :) May 02 19:52:11 yeah, but it's also got a 3.7 inch touchscreen May 02 19:52:14 next: quad core smartphones and I'm not joking May 02 19:53:16 toaster - in your pocket May 02 19:53:45 yeah, but there's some devices where quad core could make more sense May 02 19:53:55 webOS toaster FTW!!! May 02 19:54:12 but the Blackberry Bold? not really May 02 19:54:17 of course it does make sense...I wasn't joking and I meant it :P May 02 19:54:57 no single smartphone needs a whole cpu just to fetch emails :P May 02 19:55:00 yes, but you also need to balance power consumption and heat generation May 02 19:55:23 quad core doesn't mean it gets hot May 02 19:55:26 * halfhalo needs a smartphone with a dedicated email cpu May 02 19:57:54 got my shiftknob cover today ;D (keeps it from getting uber hot or freezing cold) May 02 19:57:55 http://www.wiggyshifties.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/azul-shiftie.jpg May 02 19:58:17 so fucking ugly :P May 02 19:58:30 a real man needs leather there and not that :P May 02 19:59:06 uhh its only for when its not being used, you take it off when you drive.. durr May 02 19:59:19 that is...useless :P May 02 19:59:32 keeps the sun from making it super hot in the summer, and freezing in the winter May 02 19:59:42 REAL men don't live in areas with actual weather May 02 19:59:44 lol?

May 02 20:06:56 * halfhalo chooses option 1. May 02 20:09:34 2.2 on sprint yet? May 02 20:09:43 lulz. Webos phones hit proxy parody site May 02 20:10:53 nDrive is amazing!!

May 02 20:14:53 sprint nav is ok May 02 20:15:05 http://beta.ndrive.com fwiw May 02 20:16:07 ^^ semi open beta May 02 20:17:20 "semi open beta" sounds like "alpha craptastic buggy software" to me (Except in the case of MS, which it means "released product May 02 20:17:22 ") May 02 20:17:58 semi-open == you have to sign up to receive the beta May 02 20:18:03 ndrive looks pretty solid so far May 02 20:19:45 bbl May 02 20:19:48 baseball game May 02 20:20:24 I thought it's a game console :P May 02 20:20:32 ndrive sounds like a sega game console :P May 02 20:40:21 * NuttyBunny needs a Genesis/Megadrive emulator for webOS May 02 20:40:54 then you'll need an extra battery as well :) May 02 20:42:39 that's no issue, I can have 6 batteries at my disposal :D May 02 20:42:50 hehe May 02 20:43:47 Of course, one has less than 50% of capacity, another one is at 70%, but they can get me through one full day, taking pictures, recording videos, tweeting, facebooking, IM'ing.. :D May 02 20:44:27 with my pixi it's always a bit frustrating as I'm driving home late and I always use the pixi as a player for the car May 02 20:44:46 during the day I am playing music with it as well but the player somehow soaks the battery May 02 20:45:45 with the iphone I can even stream internet radios all day without a problem :)... May 02 20:49:40 yep, current webOS devices' battery life sucks May 02 20:49:47 all of them May 02 20:49:50 even Pre 2 :P May 02 21:13:21 patrick: did you get your maps already? you're on it! :) May 02 21:14:28 NuttyBunny: surprised there's no genesis/megadrive emu already, huh.. May 02 21:15:03 ajay: No, there's none... I shall port some GP32 emu ;) May 02 21:15:12 nice :) May 02 21:15:43 Stupid Pixi... if it isn't that it loses the calls, it loses audio, I don't think if it's the webos version or the hardware :@ May 02 21:15:47 oh patrick is gone, heh May 02 21:16:07 yep, he supposedly went to test navit May 02 21:16:12 antenna broken? May 02 21:16:40 avarus: no, I hear them fine. let's hope they call me again (or maybe not) ;) May 02 21:16:58 it has to be either OS/sw or hw, right?? mine is both.. May 02 21:17:52 ok, missed call, it vibrated twice, made two "alert" sounds (not the original ringtone that should have made), and displayed the alert May 02 21:17:57 the missed call alert May 02 21:18:09 is it really that bad in 1.4.5?? May 02 21:18:27 I've had it drop audio on 1.4.5 before, it's kind of annoying May 02 21:18:48 it's probably a webOS bug that wasn't fixed and has existed for a while May 02 21:19:08 oh, my, Why Palm?!!!! Why did you have to release this bastard kid?!!! why?!!?! May 02 21:19:29 my best phone still is my old nokia e63 :) May 02 21:20:02 I have an E61, still kicking, but I got the SIM from it and slapped onto the Pixi May 02 21:21:46 the pixi is light on weight and it has webos :P that's what I like about it May 02 21:21:53 and it's thin May 02 21:23:12 but no audio recorder...jesus May 02 21:23:23 the recorder via classic is horrible :P May 02 21:23:26 not usable May 02 21:23:46 audio recorder, didn't zcorder work? May 02 21:23:59 no :( May 02 21:24:18 I press record and nothing happens May 02 21:24:46 bah :( May 02 21:25:00 the recorder in the classic "suite" works but gives no feedback if it works :P May 02 21:25:06 and classic is dead...can't purchase it May 02 21:26:02 yep, that plug pull on Classic was a really bad idea :S May 02 21:27:21 we should start a pressure campaign on palm to restart classic dev, or release the src May 02 21:27:52 I don't expect them to continue it; just offer it for free May 02 21:27:54 at least May 02 21:28:15 it doesn't hurt them :) May 02 21:29:46 rarely trivial to release the source for a commercial product, they dont necessarily own all the IP. May 02 21:30:04 ack May 02 21:30:18 took Netscape ages to cleanup the code enough to open source Mozilla May 02 21:30:23 releasing the course costs them money May 02 21:30:41 and they still forgot the fuckwords in it :P May 02 21:31:09 avarus: do those words affect performance? ;^) May 02 21:31:17 probably :) May 02 21:31:22 bad comments, bad code :P May 02 21:31:24 not so much the comments as where it links into code they dont have the rights to release. May 02 21:31:41 * ajay is really missing a slingPlayer client.. :( May 02 21:32:08 avarus: fair enough :) and yeah they should keep it free even if they're not working on it, agreed.. May 02 21:32:31 netscape's a bit of a monster (sw project), esp when compared to classic May 02 21:32:31 it's funny that you can still download the trial in the app catalog May 02 21:32:55 i wonder if the classic makers would be open to telling us how to make the trial.. not a trial May 02 21:33:08 hehe May 02 21:33:13 they won't May 02 21:33:19 but it's probably not too hard May 02 21:33:23 i mean if they won't sell it, that's the least they can do May 02 21:33:26 as always :) May 02 21:33:35 neeh...they sold the rights to do anything :P May 02 21:33:39 with it* May 02 21:33:46 but i'd rather see a pressure campaign on palm May 02 21:33:49 avarus: sold? May 02 21:34:12 well, I think they got money for it...I know the text they have on their website...but still May 02 21:35:46 * ajay hopes his phone will allow a 20 mb file to be copied to it.. fingers crossed! May 02 21:36:04 lol :P May 02 21:36:27 if not i'll have to.. restart luna (at the least).. which it gets cranky about May 02 21:36:48 Well, that's it. I took the SIM out from the Pixi, slapped it into the Plus. Waiting for the next call May 02 21:36:51 eh, you ejected me improperly, i lost data, eh! how about if you weren't flakey with your usb port buddy! May 02 21:38:17 * ajay thinks this twitter thing is interesting.. May 02 21:38:23 oh! it copied.. my word May 02 21:38:33 i wonder if it'd be down for more.. May 02 21:40:56 ajay, did you see my url? May 02 21:41:02 i found a cdma store in SF. May 02 21:41:15 --use-v1-format on palm-package? does that mean i don't need to keep a copy of the 1.4.5 SDK around anymore? May 02 21:41:27 keith: no i didn't, did you irc it to me? musta missed it.. May 02 21:42:29 NuttyBunny: was it you with the universe patch? (you and patrick?) May 02 21:42:44 yup, did we did something wrong? :) May 02 21:42:49 Oh man gross. JSONX May 02 21:42:55 Taking JSON then wrapping it in XML. May 02 21:43:01 SineOt: heh, I saw that May 02 21:43:09 NuttyBunny: no i just wanted to clarify, it makes universe launch for EVERYTHING, or just when you don't try to search with an app? the desc is confusing May 02 21:43:57 sounds like a movie May 02 21:44:05 it works when you use the "google" option with just type May 02 21:45:15 11:05 < keith> ajay: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/mob/2358129003.html May 02 21:45:31 I laughed at jsonx as well May 02 21:45:35 but read that: http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/h0chx/need_more_enterprise_introducing_jsonx_an_ibm/c1rmljm May 02 21:45:41 makes a valid point May 02 21:46:52 keith: i've been calling a lot of shops but they're all pretty confused, so will call them if i can't find a closer.. May 02 21:47:10 and now good night :) May 02 21:47:19 but i'd prefer to collaborate with someone, else just get a copy, possibly split purchase cost with somebody May 02 21:47:38 there could be quite a market for iPhones and Pre2s on Sprint (I reckon) May 02 21:49:01 sprint is impossible May 02 21:49:08 you need to do cloning to bring to sprint May 02 21:49:16 not only impossible, highly illegal May 02 21:49:20 now, iphone 4 on metropcs.. May 02 21:50:07 heh May 02 22:02:28 late lunchin again.. paz! May 02 22:24:09 hwdy all May 02 22:24:21 hwy May 02 22:29:35 NuttyBunny: have u used the promo codes yet? May 02 22:31:08 nope, not for getting, not for selling (I have no paid apps) :) May 02 22:34:23 oh ok May 02 22:34:44 have paid apps, but still wondering how to use them... May 02 22:38:57 LoneStar99: you make a campaign for the app at the dev portal, and you will get a csv of all the promo codes you can then give out however you want May 02 22:39:46 you, like others, can spam twitter with promo codes! May 02 22:39:46 sugardave: you using the promo codes yet? May 02 22:39:51 no May 02 22:40:00 yeah was thinking twitter May 02 22:40:46 I liked what Hedami did, easter eggs associated with promo codes May 02 22:40:55 Music Player Remix 2.0 May 02 22:42:28 summatusmentis: is there a link? May 02 22:43:00 it was on webosRoundup May 02 22:43:12 or in the P|C forums for Hedami apps May 02 22:49:08 hey guys i changed if (terms === "I agree") { to if (terms === "I agree" && services === "") { and now the scene won't load. can you not have AND statements in the if statement? May 02 22:49:51 like is there a way to have && in the if statement or am i just doing it wrong? May 02 22:50:05 put the two conditions in parenthesis, just to be safe May 02 22:50:15 and take off one of the equals, it's not necessary unless you're checking for type as well May 02 22:50:32 i was told == was boolean in Mojo May 02 22:50:45 and that you needed === for string comparison May 02 22:50:46 summatusmentis: ok found it May 02 22:50:54 Jake_M: that's incorrect as i understand it May 02 22:51:00 == compares values, === compares values and types May 02 22:51:10 I'm not sure it's mojo though, that's javascript specific, iirc May 02 22:51:20 that too May 02 22:51:32 also, the more likely outcome is that one of your checks is failing May 02 22:51:39 because that looks like proper syntax May 02 22:51:56 == does type coercion, === does not May 02 22:51:58 oh wait May 02 22:52:01 i know what i did wrong May 02 22:52:02 oops May 02 22:52:23 ah, i understood wrong, then. thanks again sugardave :D May 02 22:52:30 got it working guys May 02 22:52:32 thanks May 02 22:53:06 sugardave: so comparing two things of different types will force the second to be the type of the first if you use == ? May 02 22:53:37 not necessarily the first, there are rules js follows as to what gets converted to what May 02 22:53:47 ah May 02 22:53:53 but if those rules apply, then the first? May 02 22:53:57 depending on the things being compared May 02 22:54:18 interesting May 02 22:54:33 question May 02 22:54:38 is there a way i can be like May 02 22:54:39 well it's like I compare a string and an object, whichever precedence conversion rule takes place, it doesn't matter where in the expression it is May 02 22:54:56 if (terms === "I agree" && (services === "" || services==="something else")) { May 02 22:55:10 (and I don't know the js type conversion precedence rules :P May 02 22:55:40 Jake_M: yes May 02 22:55:51 oh so i was right May 02 22:55:53 but it has to be in paranthesis? May 02 22:56:01 maik: yes! :) May 02 22:56:05 hooray May 02 22:56:09 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/359494/javascript-vs-does-it-matter-which-equal-operator-i-use May 02 22:56:26 === is the identify operator, == is the equality operator May 02 22:56:51 Jake_M: you'll want the second part (the two OR options) to be in parens May 02 22:56:57 Jake_M: yeah, you do it like this: if (a && (b || c)) May 02 22:57:12 okay sweet May 02 22:57:13 if b or c are true and a is true, it passes May 02 22:57:19 right May 02 23:00:00 i don't think you can May 02 23:00:04 but is there a way to do like May 02 23:00:11 var x = (b || c) May 02 23:00:27 I don't know about in js May 02 23:00:37 like if this.radiobutton.value = b || c May 02 23:00:52 that will yield a boolean May 02 23:01:07 so if it's 1 or 0 in the display, that will work May 02 23:01:14 or i mean === May 02 23:01:31 like if a radio button is one of those 2 values, it will store in a variable May 02 23:01:51 you mean store the value of the radio button? May 02 23:01:55 if not, that variable would be null May 02 23:01:56 yeah May 02 23:02:00 no May 02 23:02:03 it will store true or false May 02 23:02:06 I don't think that's possible using that syntax May 02 23:02:08 that way May 02 23:02:18 well the radio button has string values May 02 23:03:06 won't matter, (b || c) will return 1 if either b or c has a value May 02 23:03:09 you might be able to do this May 02 23:03:11 if bother are null, it'll return 0 May 02 23:03:31 (assuming js works the way I think it does) May 02 23:04:25 (this.radiobutton.value === thing1 || this.radiobutton.value === thing2) ? varX = this.radiobutton.value : varX = null; May 02 23:04:25 can you do !=== May 02 23:04:42 sugardave i'll try that May 02 23:04:55 Jake_M: you can do != or !== May 02 23:05:03 opposites of == and === May 02 23:05:10 eating, bbiab May 02 23:05:28 what sugardave suggested above should work May 02 23:07:42 if i have a blank text field, would the string value be "" May 02 23:08:06 most likely May 02 23:08:08 or '' May 02 23:08:14 well, wait May 02 23:08:21 I'm not sure on that May 02 23:09:20 i'll trial and error it May 02 23:09:21 lol May 02 23:09:58 you know what would be genius May 02 23:10:16 if your phone was running on the wifi of the network you're doing code on May 02 23:10:20 and you do like palm-install May 02 23:10:27 it would install the app over wifi May 02 23:11:26 Jake_M: they do something similar for installing the emulator, I'm not sure how you'd expose that though May 02 23:19:31 Going back over some old code and blehhhhh. May 02 23:19:38 if the text field is blank, the value is likely undefined, as opposed to '', but they will evaluate equivalent if you use == May 02 23:19:45 I don't think I thought a lot of this stuff out real well. May 02 23:20:13 Like having two places where one setting would fit. :I May 02 23:23:37 so if i was to do a check i would do May 02 23:23:47 if (this.textfield.value == undefined) May 02 23:27:05 if (!this.textfield.value) May 02 23:27:08 :> May 02 23:27:26 so thats saying if textfield doesn't have a value May 02 23:27:40 if value is not defined or evaluates to 0 May 02 23:27:48 so if 0 is valid you have to do it like this May 02 23:28:07 if (!this.textfield.value && this.textfiled === 0) May 02 23:28:20 alright thanks :) May 02 23:28:21 well, I messed up the last part, but you know what I mean May 02 23:28:32 yeah you completely obliterated the word field May 02 23:28:32 lol May 02 23:28:34 should be this.textfield.value !== 0 May 02 23:28:57 * PatrickC_Pre2 wanders in May 02 23:30:16 anyone on vzw successfully get 1.4.5.1??? May 02 23:30:25 its out? May 02 23:30:30 no, but I got 2.2 on Sprint May 02 23:30:38 what May 02 23:30:50 very funny... May 02 23:30:56 Jake_M: just yanking his chain May 02 23:31:10 i'm not in here enough lol May 02 23:31:20 well, 2.2 might be fake, but 1.4.5.1 is real May 02 23:32:14 any change log for 1.4.5.1? May 02 23:32:30 i guess HP made things right, lets all go home May 02 23:32:35 I haven't been able to apply it yet May 02 23:32:44 lol May 02 23:32:56 it said "downloading" but then refreshed the updates app May 02 23:32:59 a tiny part of me thinks that 1.4.5.1 could, theoretically, be something along the lines of the Pixi "micro update" that allowed updates to be installed over 3G May 02 23:33:12 and if you can't figure that out then I'm sorry ;o May 02 23:33:18 or be an app catalog update May 02 23:33:38 for promo codes May 02 23:34:13 maybe May 02 23:35:15 sineot: got ndrive yet? May 02 23:35:21 sugardave in eclipse when i do !this.textfield.value the 'this' becomes like regular text May 02 23:35:27 is that just eclipse? May 02 23:35:31 no May 02 23:36:10 http://beta.ndrive.com is a good site ;) May 02 23:36:33 ummm....I don't think I know what you mean May 02 23:36:51 like you know how 'this' is a reserved word May 02 23:36:56 right May 02 23:36:59 like in IDEs usually reserved words become bolded or highlighted May 02 23:37:12 when i put !this.etc May 02 23:37:15 this becomes not bolded May 02 23:37:17 will that affect? May 02 23:37:20 no May 02 23:37:26 okay just making sure May 02 23:40:52 is Eclipse really better then a traditional text editor? May 02 23:41:04 I am so close to just outright giving up on my Pixi, it's sad. May 02 23:41:32 sprint? May 02 23:41:36 yup May 02 23:41:51 Insurance? May 02 23:42:06 yuppp May 02 23:42:10 eclipse has some nice code-completion and refactoring stuff, if you're into that May 02 23:42:13 As a point of interest, if the guts of the Pixi were up to those of the Pre, I would have considered one to replace my Treo Pro. May 02 23:42:29 palm also allows you to launch apps from eclipse May 02 23:42:36 so you just hit "run" and it packages and installs the app May 02 23:42:40 in one click May 02 23:42:44 oh, that's interesting May 02 23:42:44 The touchstone casing for the Pixis are just horrible May 02 23:43:00 peeling problems abound, cracks and splits, it's just gross May 02 23:43:01 sineot: my Pixi went in for Service like 5 times in 6 months, and they upgraded me for free to a prw May 02 23:43:03 pre* May 02 23:43:20 I'm kind of pissed that I spent 25$ for it when it can't even really hold up for more than a few months at best May 02 23:43:30 I really like the form-factor of the pixi, but I'm gald I picked a pre isntad May 02 23:43:32 instead* May 02 23:43:44 and eclipse like bolds reserved words and if you click on a variable name it shows you where in the code its implemented and will give you errors if you don't define a variable or whatever May 02 23:43:52 Hendikins: coming from a centro, I think you'd find the pre isn't _that_ much of a change May 02 23:44:06 Jake_M: yes, most IDEs do that though May 02 23:44:17 I use Notepad++ May 02 23:44:20 anyways, going to nap then be lazy May 02 23:44:28 summatusmentis: I don't regret getting the Pre, put it that way. But I would have probably purchased a Pixi instead if the internals were equivalent. May 02 23:44:28 PatrickC_Pre2: I use MacVim May 02 23:44:42 Hendikins: oooh, I thought you were a hold-out :) May 02 23:44:50 well you said traditional text editor May 02 23:45:04 Jake_M: true, someone else did May 02 23:45:13 oh May 02 23:45:19 he said traditional text editor May 02 23:45:23 well.. in my eyes, Notepad++ is a text editor, and Eclipse is an IDE May 02 23:45:41 Hendikins: I read what you had said as "I'm still using my Treo Pro because I don't like the specs of the pixi, or the form-factor of the pre" May 02 23:46:18 summatusmentis: No. I got a Pre+ when the Treo Pro carked it, and a Pre 2 when I needed a work phone. May 02 23:46:34 so, in a sense, Eclipse has things other IDEs don't, but clearly IDEs in general have some "benefits" above text editors (if you consider them benefits) May 02 23:46:34 i need a new phone...as in Pre 3 because my pre is like dying lol May 02 23:46:44 i consider IDEs benefits May 02 23:46:53 some developers don't May 02 23:47:00 i'd be completely screwed without eclipse in AP computer science May 02 23:47:02 some people don't like syntax hilighting May 02 23:47:05 crazy they killed Osama Bin Laden May 02 23:47:14 just read it right now May 02 23:47:19 how long ago? May 02 23:47:24 I think sometime last week May 02 23:47:29 it was announced last night May 02 23:47:34 oh so it is old news... May 02 23:47:36 LOL May 02 23:47:53 define "old news" May 02 23:48:02 about 20 hours or so May 02 23:48:20 Well I hibernated for 16 hours last night, and it was news before I did that. May 02 23:48:21 I'm sure to some extent they had to wait to verify, and make sure the speech was correct and complete, decide what they wanted the message to be, etc. etc. May 02 23:49:21 I watched the livestream of the address May 02 23:49:41 I got the announcement from the teevee picture box May 02 23:49:53 they still make those? May 02 23:49:56 Didn't they end up breaking in on Celebrity Apprentice for the press event? May 02 23:49:56 I got it via text message and twitter. May 02 23:50:17 SineOt: yes, hilarious May 02 23:50:19 Because if they did, then it's one of the most amazingly planned trolls -ever- May 02 23:50:22 and then delayed for like 30 minutes May 02 23:50:50 I'm really skeptical it was planned that specifically >.> May 02 23:51:04 also, I didn't realize they'd buried him at sea already May 02 23:51:11 oh come on, of all the times to do it and shows to break in on? May 02 23:51:16 Donald Trumps would be perfect May 02 23:51:18 yeah, I didn't find that out until this morning May 02 23:51:29 yeah they buried him at sea the dave after the kill May 02 23:51:35 not to be gross but --> is there an autopsy picture floating around? May 02 23:51:40 which was confusing because i heard that the US had his body May 02 23:51:47 SineOt: Given how things are going there, yeah, I'd say perfect timing. May 02 23:52:15 SineOt: perhaps it was planned to break in on his show May 02 23:52:23 I find the idea that the delay was intentional a bit odd May 02 23:52:33 Jake_M: that's the impression I had too May 02 23:52:56 whatever May 02 23:52:59 I don't think the delay part was originally planned May 02 23:53:05 all i know is we have the most badass military ever May 02 23:53:41 yep, 10 years and tens of thousands of lives, most badass military ever May 02 23:54:18 most badass navy seals ever May 02 23:54:22 summatusmentis: yeah our military is awesome, but 10 years is ridiculous May 02 23:55:08 and you have to realize May 02 23:55:17 that this has turned from a war on terrorism to a war on democracy May 02 23:55:20 especially when he was shot in Pakistan not some cave in afganistan May 02 23:55:21 like war FOR democracy May 02 23:55:27 personally? I don't see myself ever considering any military "awesome", but that might just be my own hippy upbringing May 02 23:55:32 I believe that under sharia law there may be requirements on the length of time after death to burial May 02 23:55:47 SineOt: oooh, now that you say that, I think you're right May 02 23:55:54 I know it was mentioned that everything was being done to stick to the letter for a proper Islamic treatment of the body May 02 23:56:00 and hence the burial at sea May 02 23:56:06 personally i don't think the US should be trying to fight for democracy, but more like advocating it, but yeah idk May 02 23:56:06 good for them May 02 23:56:29 under Islamic sharia custom it's preferred to bury the body on land but if there is a risk of desecration, a burial at sea is preferred May 02 23:56:41 and if anyone had a high risk of desecration, it was him May 02 23:56:51 we'll beat you with a stick until you learn May 02 23:58:53 desecration/enshrinement...two problems May 03 00:09:30 Sprint 2.2 yet? May 03 00:13:06 its not coming today :/ May 03 00:13:15 5:45:05 PM : Samuel G: Also, our Technical Team is working to make this launch available and very soon, we will come up with the 2.0 update. May 03 00:14:25 and now it's 2.0 lol May 03 00:15:15 PatrickC_Pre2: will the original pre be able to upgrade to 2.0? May 03 00:15:48 not ota May 03 00:18:23 ok, will get a dev pre 2 soon May 03 00:19:34 its all over the place lol May 03 00:19:50 "2.2 may second" "2.0 soon" May 03 00:19:54 lol May 03 00:30:42 LoneStar99: I wonder when they'll get a batch with my pre2 in it May 03 00:34:28 madnificent: not sure ... May 03 00:35:21 LoneStar99: they probably don't know for sure either May 03 00:35:57 however, the Pre-'s usb cover latch has fallen off and the speaker isn't all that anymore, so I'm kind-of looking forward to the Pre2 May 03 00:36:27 and besides that, I really want to toy with the new features (card stacks, exhibition, ...) to see how I can use them practically in my application(s) May 03 00:36:59 the only thing you'll probably not like right out of the box is the edge of the screen May 03 00:37:28 the rounded edges on the screen on the pre are a bit more ergonomic May 03 00:37:59 the pre acts as if it were a stone you interact with, I doubt they'll have reached that level of interaction with anything new May 03 00:39:10 and they don't seem to 'get' that anymore either. At least, from what I've seen of promotional material going around the tablet... I have the feeling that they lack some of the guys that used to be there when Palm was still Palm. May 03 00:39:25 Though it may well still be the nicest OS to work with :) May 03 00:39:35 (and I don't intend to dev on anything else) May 03 00:41:11 man...I have to say I like exhibition mode... May 03 00:41:13 hmm May 03 00:42:12 my phone is sitting on a touchstone right below my monitor right now, and it's working as a nice little notification display for my email+social media May 03 00:45:18 I really wish they'd included the gesture area on the touchpad May 03 00:45:28 one of my favorite parts of webos May 03 00:46:01 summatusmentis: I agree, you can work around the technical issues, I'm fairly sure of that. May 03 00:46:44 Loudergood: I can't afford a touchstone (yet?) May 03 00:46:45 also true May 03 00:47:08 no retailers dumping them over there? May 03 00:47:21 I took advantage of the verizon sales and I have 3 May 03 00:56:55 yeh, I bought one from VZW in a "travel pack" for $15 May 03 00:57:06 and I had a touchstone back because the pre I bought on ebay came with one May 03 01:02:34 time to release stress, need to jog this cold away, chat later boys and girls May 03 01:04:23 lates May 03 01:32:06 * PatrickC_Pre2 loves 2.1! May 03 01:33:09 Loudergood: no, not really May 03 01:33:33 Loudergood: I guess that I'd better buy a traveler kit then... but that's roughly 100 euros once it's here in belgium, I think May 03 01:33:49 ouch May 03 01:34:42 the car adapter on those verizon kits is quite powerful too, it has an extra usb port and charged my phone and my brother's iphone at the same time May 03 01:34:51 and even then... in order to really have the experience, I'd need at least 3 touch stones, I'm in 3 locations quite often so... May 03 01:35:06 cool May 03 01:36:42 madnificent: ur overseas from US aren't you? May 03 01:40:00 yup, europe May 03 01:41:36 ah ok May 03 02:06:21 Ffffuuuuuuu. Got asked to show up at an invite only hiring event but can't remember what AppleID I used to sign up so I can't RSVP. :U May 03 02:11:54 mmmmmmmmm... jersey mikes.... May 03 02:15:44 bbl May 03 02:45:37 * PatrickC_Pre2 walks in May 03 02:49:54 stupid pre and PC.... May 03 02:50:38 they never play nice... May 03 02:53:42 define play nice? May 03 02:56:59 evolve easy buttons that work via ESP May 03 02:57:05 whenever I unplug my phone from Usb, it usually takes a full PC reboot to get it to see my phone again May 03 02:59:32 odd. mine doesn't have that problem. May 03 02:59:52 yeah, sounds like a PC problem, not a Pre problem **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue May 03 02:59:58 2011
