@height8 Thanks! I'm at the edge peering in right now. :)

I need a second Raspberry Pi. :)

It's ok typing trivial stuff, but heck, trying to work with a virtual thing on something I could get banninated for is a bit cumbersome. :)

Awesome!

I'm impressed. :)

I'm incapable of doing this 10C API stuff unless I'm connected to the Raspberry Pi via a keyboard and mouse.

PuTTY or a phone SSH client are ok, but there's no substitute for a physical connection. :)

Ah. I have an app name, created a client key, I'd previously read through the docs to establish what I need to do to create an authentication token, and what to expect as a response. And then curl tells me https is disabled or not supported by the version of libcurl I have installed on my Raspberry Pi.

curl: (52) Empty reply from server
> curl: (1) Protocol " https" not supported or disabled in libcurl

No worries, I'll fiddle some more. ;)

Happy days!

My peak was the BBC Micro - making stuff from scratch like:

  • a digital joystick (5 microswitches),
  • an analogue joystick (2 rotary potentiometers, axes arranged at 90 degrees, plus a microswitch) and
  • a 'graphics tablet' (2 potentiometers, one fixed to the baseboard, both joined together via perspex arms, and a microswitch at the crosshair target.)

Built-in A/D converters and a good knowledge of trigonometry and BBC BASIC made it easy.

I'll never recapture that spirit exactly, but it'll be fun on the way to 'failure.' :)

Though not limitless, the things that such a tiny device can accomplish in committed hands are huge. Rubbish English aside, my silly moment added a sense of focus I've not really had until today.

And I've already decreased the frequency of post checking. I'm not important enough that I need my 'message' pushing to my reader more frequently than every 4 hours. ;)

Great answer, thanks! I meant to say something similar but Ruby dog had an operation yesterday; she's a bit clingy.

@height8 In addition, I corrected Randolph's name 3 time 's before replying to you. Bluddi ortkowrekt!
