Lest I Forget
Quick jaunt to Ensenada for #TwittENS and met
Last but not least is Adryx7, who got the thing going to begin with.
It was a pleasure to finally meet you all!

Nokia Messaging for IM
So last night I attempted to sign on to Google Talk and MSN using the Nokia Messaging for IM app from Nokia Beta Labs. The program itself is rather good, with only a few usability flaws here and there.
But last night all that changed, as I got the following “Subscription expired” error screen:
After this, the phone will not sign on to any IM networks supported (Google Talk, Windows Live, Yahoo! Messenger) except Nokia Ovi. Going to the URL provided only gets you market-speak for how cool and affordable the thing is.
From what I was able to gather, it seems Nokia is following RIM’s path and beginning to associate with cellular providers to force people to get a cellular data plan in order to use its software. Never mind most of the supported phones do have WiFi connectivity on them, allowing you to bypass your provider. They want you to spend the money.
If only I were living in a country were cellular data access was cheap.
Since the application was original provided on a trial basis, I guess I can’t complain too much… except people are. This is one of the best programs Nokia has made for their phones, and here they go fucking it up.
So now I’m looking for alternative clients. So far I’ve found
- eBuddy (free, need to create account with them first).
- Nimbuzz (free, need to create account with them first).
- Fring (free, advertisements).
- Agile Messenger (pay, with trial period).
- Cracked Windows Live clients.
None of which really convince me.
So… way to go Nokia, you little money grubber. Yet another reason why this will be my last phone from you.

It isn’t the monetary value. It’s the emotional value.
So it turns out somebody stole the wedding rings of a friend’s mother, while at a party at her place.
Shame on you, whomever did it. If you wanted money, all you had to do was ask and everybody would have lent you some, if not given it outright.
CENEVAL
Okay, so I just got registered to do the test on August 12. Now I just got to convince my subconcious it’s worth the time and effort to actually study for it.

Tijuana, second pass
Yeah, I’m back in the corner of Mexico. However, my son is not. Apart from that, everything so far is pretty good. I want it to stay that way; for that to happen I need a job. Hopefully I’ll actually be able to get one now.
Cancelar Infinitum
Yeah, the title is linkbait, deal with it. Also, the rest of the post is in Spanish.
Para cancelar una linea telefónica con telmex — que es lo que pretendo realizar— primero se necesita cancelar el servicio de infinitum. Esto no se puede realizar en una tienda telmex. He aquí los pasos a seguir:
- Llamar al 01 800 123 2222. Ingresar el numero que tiene el servicio.
- Opción 1 para Ventas.
- Opción 1 para Paquetes.
- Una vez que estas hablando con un agente, informar que deseas cancelar. Te comunicara con servicio al cliente infinitum.
- Una vez que estas hablando con el nuevo agente, solicitar cancelación.
Lo que el agente hace es crear una orden de pre-cancelación con su numero de folio, el cual te dará. Confirmalo, no quieres andar dando vueltas por que tu letra es fea y ni tu le entiendes. La orden es efectiva durante cuatro días naturales (ojo, esto es importante).
Durante estos cuatro días necesitas llevar lo siguiente a una tienda telmex:
- Módem con adaptador de corriente. Lo mas practico es llevar todo lo que la caja contenía desde un principio: módem, adaptador, cableado RJ-11 (teléfono/gris), cableado RJ-45 (ethernet/amarillo), filtros DSL, manuales, discos de instalación, etc.
- Numero de folio
Si al final de los cuatro días naturales no fuiste a la tienda telmex, la orden de pre-cancelación es cancelada y el servicio continuara siendo facturado sin cambio alguno. Si cancelas en viernes, tienes hasta el siguiente lunes para ir, ya que sábado y domingo están dentro del plazo de la entrega.
Ojala y esto le sea de ayuda a alguien.
