I had a parking lot ticket machine smile at me a couple of weeks ago, but it was a very sinister expression. I don't think it meant it when it said "drive safely".

anyone here doing a kickstarter/indiegogo project or know someone that is?
<Mehhh>
Yeh, here's the trick. Find a semi-supported cheap device on aliexpress. Rebrand it and sell it as fully open source. Profit.

got my pocket-tv today, kickstarter from july
<mnemoc>
took it apart already? :)

nah I know whats in it

I like the plastic vents

1ghz arm cortex a9, gpu-mali-400mp

1gb ram

but the same problem as all of them

been US-based you have better chances to demand GPL compliance

I'm in tokyo?

they are in UA
<mnemoc>
ok
<lundman>
I'll just give it to someone
<mnemoc>
forgot the .jp details
<mnemoc>
forgot the .jp detail
<RaYmAn>
the most important thing is that they are US based, isn't it? :)
<mnemoc>
to use kickstarter they must
<RaYmAn>
what SoC is it?
Quarx has quit []
<mnemoc>
RK3066 ?
<mnemoc>
(just guessing)
<lundman>
UA= United Arab
<mnemoc>
ow
<RaYmAn>
I wonder if it's possible to go after kickstarter for facilitating copyright/license breach, essentially forcing them to pass it along
<RaYmAn>
though, I assume you've contacted them about source?
<lundman>
no, dont care. hardware cant do what I want
hg_5_ has joined #arm-netbook

UA is Ukraine
<rm>
emirates are UAE
<lundman>
you assume we were using ISO country codes
<rm>
I assume you were caring about being understood by people
<lundman>
I was using lundman's made up codes
<rm>
^^
<lundman>
so understanding is unlikely sideeffect
<RaYmAn>
lundman: so no idea about which SoC? :)

RK3066 is the "common" dual a9 + mali SoC in cheap hdmi dongles
<mnemoc>
but it's 1.6GHz, not 1.... unless they downclocked it because of the heat
<slapin>
is RK3066 open enough now?
<slapin>
rehi, all!
<lundman>
it shouldnt be considered

mnemoc: still illegal
<mnemoc>
sure
<focus_well>
I don't mean to do them harm, but is there any way they can be 'forced' to comply?
<libv>
focus_well: it's amazing how many android devices are GPL violators
<mnemoc>
even big brands
<libv>
sueing them all does not work apparently, especially on the chinese
<focus_well>
fsf has no resources to go after all of them
<mnemoc>
it should be ARM itself
<mnemoc>
forcing their licensees to honor the licenses of the software they use
<focus_well>
CN has some 2 million patents - and they demand respect - so they should go enforce gpl by paying these companies a visit
<focus_well>
I am certain if CN government moved, they will comply quickly
<focus_well>
Its in their own interest to gpl the software, more factories can make more products and more money
<mnemoc>
only if you get the GPL bins directly from the SoC manufacturer you can actually try to do something
<mnemoc>
if not the amount of indirections make it impossible
<mnemoc>
the "best" you can get is to destroy an small reseller or get the product removed from the shelfs of a retailer. which imo is not good for anyone
<focus_well>
CN gov has resources to go after all indirections - blanket smack them all in one day. :-)
<focus_well>
Selling gpl to CN gov is key
* mnemoc
still believes it's ARM's fault
<focus_well>
The more factories that comply the more quickly more factories can spring up to make peripherals and new kit based on gpl'd software and its more revenue for CN gov
<focus_well>
I understand CN gov is not doing too well with their electronics export because of global downturn - all the more reason for them to go enforce GPL and get info shared to make new products people want and make more money all around instead of allowing production to stagnate because no one has access to GPL'd code
<libv>
focus_well: preacher, meet choir.
<focus_well>
:-)
<mnemoc>
focus_well: request an appointment with your local chinese consul ;-)
<focus_well>
mnemoc: hard work - its a sprawling empire, need empire builder like Stallman to go talk to them
<focus_well>
Lets face it Stallman built their electronics empire. They should listen.
* libv
falls asleep
<Mehhh>
Just go after telcos that cannot afford the bad PR and fight
<Mehhh>
For instance, Clear WiMax
<Mehhh>
and carriers that carry rebranded (as their own) devices from such companies
<focus_well>
The NDA culture originates from west and its the CN gov and CN factories that suffer for it. If CN gov passes a law that says NDA does not apply to GPL'd products, the NDA trolls are fscked!
<mnemoc>
time to request an audience with the chinese parlament!
<libv>
the full chinese parliament
<libv>
maybe we should have a march
<libv>
we could be like a hundred or so unwashed geeks, with a badly designed protest-tshirt, and a balloon, and then walk up to the chinese parliament, and then release the balloon!
<libv>
that'll teach them
<Mehhh>
focus, they'll change when Africa or South America replaces them ;)
<Mehhh>
or robots >.>
<mnemoc>
get the 100 unwashed geeks in the house of ARM directives :p
<oliv3r>
maybe not confuse, rather they have NO, but really NO idea what they are trying to sell? so just put some stuff in there
<mnemoc>
Hanlon's razor
<mnemoc>
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
<Mehhh>
Better off doing the lapdock mod oliv3r ;)
<focus_well>
libv: no need for the great unwashed to present their case to CN gov. Just the bare facts of how much more money they would and how many more factories will get opened make if NDA doesn't apply to GPL rule is enforced through rights already given to them when they joined the WTO.
