| ViGe | mal: that could be useful in some situations, like with some braindead android apps which won't even start properly without location | 09:02 |
|---|---|---|
| nephros_ | mal: I have found that this (fake location) is possible using geoclue plugin "manual". But that sets only address, not GPS coordinates. | 12:21 |
| nephros_ | I guess not many apps use the Geoclue position/street address, most will want coordinates. | 12:22 |
| nephros_ | I have made a UI for manual position here: https://codeberg.org/nephros/settings-manual-location | 12:23 |
| nephros_ | So if someone writes a plugin to set GPS coordinates, I can add it. | 12:24 |
| nephros_ | ^^^ that can use "manual", "localnet" (, and, under development nominatim) providers | 12:26 |
| nephros_ | rainemak[m]: I guess an alternative way would be to set up a private BeaconDB host which always returns a certain location, and use the new configurable MLS plugin to query that. | 12:32 |
| nephros_ | rainemak[m]: sorry, didn't mean to ping you. | 12:33 |
| mal | that would seem a bit overly complicated way of doing it | 12:37 |
| mal | and not easy to change it | 12:37 |
| nephros_ | mal: sure, but if you have *many* devices and want to fake their location wherever they are... :) | 14:21 |
| nephros_ | ... or you just do MDM :P | 14:22 |
| b100dian[m] | Was I imagining a golang compiler support in Sfos 5.0? | 23:05 |
