Oksana | Thank you! And yes, TV-out is a good way to check whether it's software or hardware fault. | 00:44 |

Oksana | So far, I have disassembled and assembled back the thing, the issue hasn't gone away despite no obvious damage inside. | 00:44 |
Oksana | Is that of any use at all? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Nokia-N900-Service-Cable/333305003459 | 02:04 |
Oksana | At this rate, it is easier to find a domesheet than a flex cable: https://www.puhelinvaraosat.fi/category/185/n900 | 02:22 |
Maxdamantus | Hmm .. seems my 'F' key is about to fall off. Wonder how to resecure it. | 05:51 |
Maxdamantus | Maybe a tiny bit of silicone, dunno. | 05:53 |
brolin_empey | Is “foldable smartphone” in practice interchangeable with “foldable smartphone with difficult to access and remove battery”? Apparently yes but I have not researched the subject in depth. | 07:25 |
brolin_empey | My heuristic is that the news about such computers I have seen is for models from Samsung and maybe other companies such as Huawei that are known for sealing the battery inside the computer. | 07:27 |
brolin_empey | Heh, Amazon Prime Video is not the opposite of composite video (AKA “TV out”). | 07:34 |

brolin_empey | “The Original Was Un-Protected.” | 12:04 |
brolin_empey | Does that mean this program is an uncracktro? Or just an intro, I guess, not a crack intro. | 12:04 |
Wikiwide | Could somebody perhaps figure out how to open this webpage on Nokia N900? Encryption disagrees with MicroB and Fennec (and hence Opera too?), QML-Browser crashes | 13:36 |

KotCzarny | vnc ? | 13:38 |
Wikiwide | Tired. Opening Firefox over ssh -X doesn't often happen with success. | 13:39 |
KotCzarny | that's because X is inefficient | 13:39 |
KotCzarny | try setting up vnc server somewhere | 13:39 |
KotCzarny | it's much more smart than plain X | 13:40 |
Wikiwide | Huh. How so? What is inefficient about old plain X? | 13:40 |
KotCzarny | for once, lack of compression | 13:40 |
KotCzarny | next comes whole screen/window updates | 13:41 |
KotCzarny | vnc updates only what's necessary | 13:41 |
KotCzarny | and it even has jpeg comrpession for slow links | 13:41 |
Wikiwide | /me will try VNC some time, just, don't want to chase down fashion aka Wayland route - too much change isn't stable | 13:41 |
KotCzarny | then run some older linux | 13:42 |
KotCzarny | you can even setup vnc server on windows | 13:44 |
KotCzarny | which might be easier | 13:44 |
KotCzarny | then run firefox/chrome there | 13:44 |
Wikiwide | No worries. Will figure out somehow. Just, doesn't Xorg have x11 widgets or something? Then it potentially could send widget changes, not window changes, over the protocol? | 13:45 |
KotCzarny | theoretically yes, practically x over net is traditionally slow | 13:45 |
KotCzarny | that's why vnc idea was born and implemented | 13:46 |
Wikiwide | Yes. I haven't figured out heads or tail of VNC yet though. Perhaps because I have no 24/7 server - my laptop is switched on only 8/5, at most. | 13:47 |
KotCzarny | do you have any windows machine on the network? | 13:48 |
Wikiwide | Nay. We haven't bought any new computer in ages, and old computers run Linux way better than Windows. | 13:48 |
KotCzarny | btw. vnc server doesnt require monitor | 13:49 |
Wikiwide | Nokia 8110 4G doesn't count as a computer for this purpose. | 13:49 |
KotCzarny | it's just a server that runs in background and allows clients to connect to it | 13:49 |
Wikiwide | Yes, but which computer could run 24/7? Something quiet, ultra power efficient, and tiny. Haven't got such a tiny 24/7 server, yet. | 13:50 |
Wikiwide | Xorg can/does support SPICE protocol for remote desktop : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPICE_(protocol) And SPICE supports encryption, but not sure about compression. | 13:58 |
Wikiwide | Good night! It's nearly midnight already... | 13:59 |
brolin_empey | Oksana: Thanks to the desktop version of Vivaldi, here is the page you linked as a single image: http://brolin.be/stuff/Oksana_20191015.png | 14:53 |
mp107 | I use Google Weblight bookmarklet "proxy" for reading problematic websites on Opera Mini (not on N900 though) | 20:31 |
mp107 | `javascript:location.href='http://googleweblight.com/?lite_url='+location.href` | 20:31 |
Maxdamantus | fwiw, that Russian website above works for me using my MITM proxy. | 20:36 |
Maxdamantus | (in Opera Mobile) | 20:37 |
Maxdamantus | (though that should just work in general, since it's connecting with a recent version of OpenSSL and a recent set of CA certs) | 20:38 |
