That I did not know - innocent I guess.
Thanks for that information, I would only be interested in speeding up the system and removing the crap wear. I do wonder if there is an opportunity to set up a rooted app market?

So my laptop is plugged into the mains charging and I get up to turn the light off with my left hand whilst holding the laptop in my right. As I flick the switch I get a shock in my hand touching the light switch followed immediately by another shock in the hand holding the laptop which is attached to the mains.
Do I need to get a sparky in?

Sounds like you have plenty of sparky parts already!

Something is not properly grounded (I think your side of the pond calls it 'earthed'). IIRC, the UK uses 230 VAC 50 Hz, with both lines as live, and a ground. My first suspect would be your laptop PSU or plug not being grounded, or the outlet it is plugged into not being properly grounded the first is a job for the computer guys, and second is a job for your Sparky.
This is not a good thing, current passes through the path of least resistance and it can be as little as (again IIRC) about 20 ma of current flow to stop the heart which, coincidentally, is about halfway between those outstretched hands.

Anybody else enjoying a few beers on this lovely Friday evening?

Close, I'll be verifying the Vodka protocol (PRF-80) this fine evening.

A "few"? No, I'd be out 'til Tuesday and miss it. I will likely have one and see how it goes.

Anyone worked with RFC 3080[^] or 3081[^]?
I started to implement my Beep library and would really love to have someone to check what I do, and eventually tell me where I possibly misinterpreted the specs...
Yes, I'm having a nice expanded weekend due to Swiss' national July 4th today.
Apart from that, the army is going well and I might even get a promotion to be a Sergeant Major, and Chief Sergeant Major later.
Plus, I'm strongly thinking about joining the KFOR[^] after March next year, for a 6 months duty.

Sometime this week, maybe yesterday? Can't remember... not important..
Someone commented on going to a site and being prompted with:
'By using this site you agree to accept cookies on this site' followed by an ACCEPT button.
And, when I followed the link in the OP for KFOR, there was the prompt... copied/pasted to ensure I didn't misrepresent what it said...
Humorous...

Funny. It didn't prompt me when I went there. Maybe they resolve the IP, or I used another NATO site before.

I thought it was "An army of one" now.

Apparently it's "Army Strong" now, "An army of one" lasted as long as a real army of one would.

What are you writing it in (your Beep library, that is?)

At first, it was planned as a simple logging library, to write Sylog log files. Later on I decided to add a log viewer and server / client programs in order to be able to write logs over a network connection. It is stated in the RFC that Syslog messages not going over UDP but TCP are needed to be transmitted via BEEP, and now I find myself implementing a BEEP library. Well, I'm planning the architecture right now, and the rest of what I was planning does only exist in my head so far. Apart from the file logger, which exists in a raw form.

Why not just use the existing libraries that already do all of that?
|
|

|

The problem is that there seems to be no library which can be used to apply BEEP on a TCP connection.
And there is also only one Syslog library out there, which is commercial.
The project is a personal challenge, and shall also provide the possibility to use Syslog as standard for your logging stuff - The existing logging libraries are fine, but their customizeability is often a problem, since a reasonably good working program to read the produced logs does not exist. This certainly isn't a problem if you have a small log file (or more than one), but becomes a problem if you have a 100K+ logfile where you need to search for a single error - Especially a use case within highly regulated fields such as medical software.

I believe the custom now is to use Elephant instead of beep or the f-word.
So, that would be Elephanting Protocol
