| spiiroin | Nico[m]: "after the update my SD card is named differently?" = probably just that mount point naming switched from labels to disk ids | 05:59 |
|---|---|---|
| Nico[m] | Yep, exactly, was there a reason for that? | 06:08 |
| Nico[m] | You could probably write a shell script to do it | 08:41 |

| pa | Mirv, are you the maintainer of debian qt5 packages? | 13:41 |
| attah | Feeling a bit stupid here... but if/since the cellular positioning database thingy is off by a kilometer or two, what use does it serve? | 18:26 |
| mal | attah: the point of that is to give gps an estimate of the location which usually should make getting gps fix faster | 18:31 |
| attah | I must just have been unlucky and never noticed any speedup... because that is a good use case indeed | 18:32 |
| mal | it is also affected by how recent the satellite data is and on devices which have working setup of downloading satellite data from network also enabling mobile data can help | 18:34 |
| mal | if it can't download the data from network then it will get it from gps satellites but that is slower | 18:36 |
| attah | It would be pretty cool to be able to tell the quality of the position, so that apps needing precise position could ignore it when it is way off | 18:37 |
| attah | wait, maybe that is what is happening | 18:38 |
| attah | i should navigate more often | 18:38 |
| mal | attah: the estimated accuracy is reported to the location api which apps use | 18:39 |
| attah | yes, i spoke too soon.. hadn't realized that before, only now that i had formed the question i looked closely enough | 18:40 |
| mal | many navigation apps indicate the accuracy with size of the position indicator on the map | 18:40 |
| mal | or color in some cases | 18:40 |
| attah | And so does OSM scout... i had just zoomed past it initally | 18:41 |
| mal | I very rarely use navigation because I don't have a car and map is rarely needed when cycling | 18:41 |
| mal | sometimes I use gps for logging the cycling route but not always | 18:42 |
| attah | I got rid of my car a couple of years ago too... half of the trips was basically maintenance and inspections (: | 18:42 |
| attah | And agreed, it is pretty rare to need when cycling | 18:43 |
| mal | I have never had a car | 18:43 |
| attah | Good choice | 18:43 |
| mal | I just haven't seen enough use for it, main thing it would help with is going to summer cottage | 18:44 |
| mal | I think closest I get there with public transportation is about 20 km which is not very practical | 18:45 |
| attah | I got one just because that is what people do... didn't think much of it, but turned out that is indeed the case | 18:45 |
| attah | Oh, indeed | 18:46 |
| attah | Now with social distancing and stuff, i had reason to re-evaluate that 10Km is a bit much for errands by bike - turns out it really isn't | 18:46 |
| mal | within 10 km from home I rarely use public transportation, mostly if weather is very bad | 18:47 |
| attah | In my case work is 4km, but not a direct connection with public transport... so biking is at least twice as fast | 18:48 |
| attah | Not that i have physically been for about 14 months | 18:48 |
| attah | Biking to work is a good sanity check for if you are actually feeling well too... could have been a good feature these days | 18:51 |
| Malinux | I don't get any gps fix at all. I've got a fix with the new offline mode thing, but it's off by aproximately 5KM, so it's useless for what I intend to use it for :) | 19:54 |
| mal | offline mode is never very accurate because it's based on cell phone tower locations | 19:57 |
| Malinux | true | 20:56 |
| Malinux | is there other options than to change supl.sonyercsson.com to supl.google.com ? Like some different vendors if they do excists? | 20:57 |
| Malinux | I read on the forum, changing to the google address would let me getting a fix from a gps | 20:57 |
