Home Theatres comparison
by Dennis Kioko 08 Nov '16

08 Nov '16

So, After more than 6 years of listening to music on my Creative SBS A300s and Logitec/Sennheiser earphones , I think I'm becoming deaf and therefore no longer in a position to appreciate the bass in the Creatives. I would like to replace them with a hometheatre that offers some great sound reproduction in the 50 Hz range upwards. However, I am surprised that most of what I am seeing here ( http://www.jumia.co.ke/home-theatre/) does not offer bluetooth pairing or even DNLA. I thought stuff in this age should even have a mobile app to control the damn thing? Are the Koreans and Japanese running out of steam? -- with Regards: blog.denniskioko.com <http://www.denniskioko.com/>

Re: [Skunkworks] Daily Nation ePaper - Download Script [Linux/OSX]
by Paul Korir 24 Jun '16

24 Jun '16

I'm not sure I agree... Two reasons: 1. Nation switched their ePaper provider to the current provider. The previous provider (an IT company based in India) was leaky and very many eyeballs got a hold of the PDF version. You could argue that this was part of their strategy. The current provider seems to be more secure implying to me (at least) that security is a factor. 2. Not too long ago they actually stopped providing PDF copies because of copyright infringement. They reinstated it shortly after maybe because of a loud outcry from their subscribers. In fact, immediately after they restored them, PDFs would download with a watermark of your username (your email). They later removed them which makes me suspect that there are invisible watermarks that can inform them which account is leaking their copy then possibly blocking only those accounts (I'm only speculating... I really don't know). Overall, the bigger concern is that we as tech creatives (sources of copy) should appreciate the importance of upholding other's right to copy because we will benefit from such an environment in the long run. Turning a blind eye is not a way to go. I think this is critical.

Hi for Tesla Crypt, the best you can do is ensure that it doesn't spread further to other computers on your network. To clean it out, boot up in safemode then go to your startup config to check for the malware source files. Disable it from starting when your PC start. After that You will have to run a search on your hard drive for all files with the offending extension (so far i've seen .CCC & .VVV) and delete them. The only way to recover your ms office based documents is if you had previously backed them.

OT: Selling Home Cinema Set Onkyo/Jamo/Pioneer
by Kevin Omondi 22 Dec '15

22 Dec '15

This is a high end home cinema set for real audiophiles comprising of An Onkyo AV Receiver. AV Receiver - Onkyo Tx SR 608- This receiver won the Home cinema amplifier Product of the Year, and a 5 star rating on what hifi magazine. http://www.whathifi.com/onkyo/tx-sr608/review Even when lined up against price-comparable rivals from the biggest hitters around, the Onkyo still leads the specification race – its lantern-jawed box is bursting at the seams. It's ready to drive nine speakers plus a couple of subwooofers if you're really ambitious, and it's THX Select2 Plus certified too. Speakers - Jamo A 402- The best in Danish Sound The A 402 HCS system is made up of speakers from the A 400 range. In the box you get four surround satellites -- the A 402 -- for the front, rear, left and right channels. There's also an A 400 CEN for the centre dialogue channel and an A 400 SUB, which is the hard-hitting subwoofer, for exploiting those epic movie explosions. The subwoofer is surprisingly hefty, and has plenty of controls to customise the sound it produces too. It has 22k ohm impedance and can whack noise out from 40Hz to 150Hz. The centre channel features a pair of woofers and a tweeter to handle the nuances of speech, and is also easily wall-mountable. If interested contact me offlist.

WTO deal to cut Tarriffs on IT goods

This is the best news from the conference. In principle a number of ICT goods should be duty free within the next 3 years. The question is whether KRA will agree to lose all that revenue/ WTO deal to cut tariffs on ICT goods SHARE BOOKMARKPRINT <http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/WTO-deal-to-cut-prices-of-ICT-goods/-/53…> RATING US Trade Representative Michael Froman at a press briefing at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, Nairobi on December 16, 2015. DIANA NGILA DIANA NGILA (NAIROBI) By GEORGE OMONDI, omondi(a)ke.nationmedia.com Posted Thursday, December 17 2015 at 10:23 IN SUMMARY - The deal means signatories will be required to eliminate custom taxes on goods such as computers, semiconductors, telecommunication instruments, data storage media and software. - A number of civil society organisations have, however, criticised the pact, saying free flow of IT products will create another wave of unemployment in places such as Africa as machines take up human jobs. - The list of products includes medical equipment such as scanners, home hi-fi systems, headphones, DVR players, semi-conductors and GPS devices. Also covered are electronics such as TV-cameras, video recording, digital car radios and set-top boxes for digital TV reception.

Interactive voice response systems (IVR systems)
by The sherminator 14 Dec '15

14 Dec '15

Hi Skunks, Anyone have experience with IVR systems? It looks like Safaricom doesn't necessarily provide this service so wondering what solutions exist locally or one that you can recommend based of experience. I'd love for when there's an incoming all, that the caller hears "For admissions, press 1. For the product 2 office, press 2. For payments, press 3." or something like that ~ And those options redirect to different calls. I've used an AT&T option before (US) where as you were receiving the incoming call it actually warned you before you picked up "incoming cal from :Admissions" Anyway something like this would be great, even if the functionality was less sophisticated. Thanks

EBAY PURCHASES
by Ti Dave 14 Dec '15

14 Dec '15

Hello Council, Have anyone of you purchase items on ebay before and how long was the wait to receive your shipment? Purchased an Item from a us seller, which was further dispatched with USPS (United States Postage Services). The tracking portal on the site says (Your item departed a transfer airport in Jomo Kenyatta Intl, Nairobi, KENYA on December 1, 2015 at 8:05 pm. The item is currently in transit to the destination.) However, the update has been stuck there for 9 good days now. I indicated all my contacts on the address I provided which were also placed to the shipment box. How does one follow up from there on. I tried going to Posta City square Parcels department. They have been searching 3 days now. Nothing. That is package one. Fortunately it has a tracking number. Package two was purchased and dispatched on the 18th November from UK Royal Mail. However, this does not have any tracking number and when I call them they say they can not raise claims with Royal Mail until the 28th day mark. Which is ok BUT brings me back to the question. How does one follow up from this end. With no tracking ID or any reference other than the address name on the package, and where do you start.?

Hi Skunks, I have been thinking of this for a while now. Am proposing we have a bash, where guys will meet and discuss issue`s ,plan and get to know each other. On my view, should be simple i.e a spacious club within CBD, we preserve an area, noise free and accommodate to all type, i.e Alcohol free guys or such. CBD for those who do not drive and Price friendly for the starters or poor guys. i.e someone to be able to buy for him/herself a soda or such. Or if any of the member has a club in town, can be a choice. Like me am giving an offer, anybody who will recognize me, will get a Tot or more of Amarula Cream or any of your taste. A day like Tuesday 15th can do. Guys give Ideas,

Fwd: [kictanet] Introducing Facebook Africa Public Policy Team to KICTANet

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Grace Githaiga via kictanet <kictanet(a)lists.kictanet.or.ke> Date: 2015-12-01 0:07 GMT+03:00 Subject: [kictanet] Introducing Facebook Africa Public Policy Team to KICTANet To: nmutungu(a)gmail.com Cc: Grace Githaiga <ggithaiga(a)hotmail.com> Dear Listers Greetings. I hope your week has started well. The topic of Net Neutrality has become an important global Internet Governance issue in the last two years, and has generated some interesting debates. In Kenya, Facebook has partnered with Airtel to offer users zero rated services, christened "free basics" which means that several websites have been selected (for lack of a proper word) to participate in the platform, where users access these websites for free. However, the same users cannot access any other website unless they pay for the data. Different positions depending on where their proponents stand have been shared. Please find one here by Nanjira Sambuli http://www.nation.co.ke/oped/blogs/free-internet-freedom-create/-/620/29756… and another by our own Mwendwa Kivuva http://www.circleid.com/posts/20151124_zero_rating_a_poisoned_chalice_for_t… Those for pro zero rated services have argued that it gives more users free access to the Internet, and that it is a genuine attempt to connect the unconnected. Those on the opposite side argue that zero rating stifles innovation, leads to customers lock-in, is anti competitive behavior, confuses the users on the true meaning of the Internet, denies users choice, and makes policy makers lazy in ensuring proper affordable internet is availed to the masses. *Facebook's Head of Public Policy, Africa Ebele Okobi, and the Public Policy Manager, Africa Akua Gwekye* have graciously agreed to respond to any queries the community has on zero rated services. *The Process* Please articulate your concerns and ask questions as we usually do when we have moderated debates. The facebook team will then look at the questions and respond to you on Wednesday Evening. Depending on how it goes, we can then see how to continue engaging with them. *I think this is a great opportunity for the facebook team to unpackage free basics issue, and it is my hope that the debate will be exciting given the prominence members of the list have given the net neutrality debate. * *Over to you listers! And a very warm welcome to Ebele and Akua. * Warmly Grace _______________________________________________ kictanet mailing list kictanet(a)lists.kictanet.or.ke https://lists.kictanet.or.ke/mailman/listinfo/kictanet Unsubscribe or change your options at https://lists.kictanet.or.ke/mailman/options/kictanet/nmutungu%40gmail.com The Kenya ICT Action Network (KICTANet) is a multi-stakeholder platform for people and institutions interested and involved in ICT policy and regulation.
