I am back from my honeymoon and I’m starting to organize my life again! Meanwhile, we finally released a game that I’m really proud that is called “Incredible Circus”. It’s the kind of game that is really addictive . In three weeks we achieved 200k downloads on Nokia Store and today is available for the [...]
It has been a while since my last post and a lot happened in the meantime. Just to point a few (in no special order): 11th February for Nokia; Tokamak; GSoC; Qt Contributor Summit; Qt Open Governance announced; Desktop Summit; Release of N9; Google acquired Motorola; Plasma Active; Netflix in Brazil; Use of Tiny Tiny RSS [...]
Today we finally converted kdeplasma-addons to git The rules itself were written some time ago and we waited for the conversion of kdelibs and kdebase. Thanks to eean I found a last minute problem on the rules and today we fixed that! You can find kdeplasma-addons on https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdeplasma-addons and you can easily clone the repo [...]
Following the awesome work done by our sysadmins, I implemented a backend for the share data engine that supports the use of KDE’s official pastebin service: http://paste.kde.org . This way people using trunk will already have this support upstream and people using earlier versions (which includes 4.6 !) can also use the script provided by [...]
Since some time ago I started to worry that some “vital” information for me was on the “The Cloud” and that most of the service providers didn’t provide a way to retrieve my stuff or a support line. I started to worry also about privacy for the first time in my life: what if companies [...]
Yep, I didn’t blog about MeeGo Conference yet. But come on, a lot happened during the last few days I barely had time to sleep really well (those that know me can tell histories about my sleep-walking and sleep-talking hehe). However, just to keep everybody updated before I do a full post or read an [...]
A month ago I integrated into Akregator the “share” feature that uses Plasma’s microblog service to help you to share news with your friends using the microblog services (identi.ca and twitter). The good thing about using identi.ca is that all your data belong to you and you can easily replicate your posts to twitter too. [...]
There are several ways of being part of the KDE game: you can develop, translate, be an artist, help users, take care of our infrastructure, organize developer sprints. A lot of ways right? But some people just lack the time to join the game in any of the areas that I just listed but still [...]
During the first semester of this year I’ve been playing with the idea of creating a “Share” dataengine that would support scriptable plugins. This idea came from the fact that there were a lot of hacks on the pastebin dataengine that at the time were the only “fast” solutions to the problems I was facing. [...]
Today there was this presentation from Apple to talk about the famous iPhone4 antenna problem. I’ll represent this problem (bug) with the picture below made by one of INdT’s designers (Patricia Montenegro) some time ago: To be honest I wasn’t expecting anything “technical” in the sense that I wasn’t expecting a technical explanation to the [...]
