Were they correctly displayed in Quassel?
I have the same setup, and I had trouble with that. I simply patched Quassel, http://bugs.quassel-irc.org/issues/1305 but I’d prefer to run Quassel from the debian repositories… Maybe you found a more intelligent solution for that?

So i had no choice but to look into it..

I’d written this to be more easy to follow. Please also go read the case transcript for further information about who ran the script.

Also, there’s a clear distinction between “making it known” and running a script for days.

]]> Comment on Cellular data extortion(?) by mithrandi http://blog.froztbyte.net/2013/02/cellular-data-extortion/#comment-16699 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 17:32:00 +0000 http://blog.froztbyte.net/?p=387#comment-16699 Actually I quite like that comparison; both the problem and the solution are very similar to the issues surrounding supply / capacity planning for supermarkets. The problem is that the cellphone networks have been spoiled by following a captive sales model for such a long time that switching back to a higher risk model is not a very pleasant prospect, at least for them (and the consumer would presumably end up paying more too).

It’s more like not being able to use a cinema ticket on Monday if you booked for Sunday; the cellphone network has to provide the service whether you actually use it or not, and I can see how having people sitting on huge amounts of unused data would make them extremely nervous.

If you want to compare it to supermarket goods, it would be like buying a voucher for a few 6-packs of milk every month without using it, then suddenly showing up a few years later and wanting 1000 bottles of milk.

EDIT: merged comments
