the five and ten-day forecasts come from a different part of the Yahoo ecosystem, so that's just how it isI'm not using the 10 day forecast usually and I seem to be the only one not seeing day 6-10 (I've turned it back off already). Your explanation would suggests it's blocked by our network security because of the different url involved. No problem for me.-skwire (March 10, 2016, 09:20 AM)

Before I allow the Win10 update to install on the Compaq, I thought I'd ask members on this forum of their experiences with making that change.I'd suggest to take the plunge, and see how performance holds up after the upgrade. If it's too poor, you can always revert within the first 30 days.

As it stands, the Compaq runs very nicely under Win7 HP, even before the last extra 1Gb RAM has been added.-IainB (March 10, 2016, 03:45 AM)
Ath you see my messageYes, but nothing to say about it. So I said nothing-sportman12 (March 07, 2016, 01:03 PM)


Fixed (again?) off-by-one date in the extended forecastsNot sure what happened, but it's now off with 1.5 day, I think:-skwire (March 02, 2016, 09:19 PM)
Unforunately i tried that, the program shows as unregisters.Could it be that it shows as unregistered because it can't reach the home-base server? That would be one of several ways I'd code a software licensing system, if I was asked...-shadowman (March 01, 2016, 01:43 PM)

), but the dates in the forecast are off by 1 day, as reported before. Maybe related to time-zone? I'm at GMT+1.Ath dose v1.5.6 - 2016-02-29 work for you ?Except for the issues I reported above, but the empty 6-10'th forecast also was in the previous version. Most likely a Yahoo issue, IMHO.-sportman12 (February 29, 2016, 12:09 PM)
And do you close the old version snd install the new version ?You will have to, as Windows won't allow you to overwrite a running executable.-sportman12 (February 29, 2016, 12:09 PM)
Ath did you install DownloadYes, ofcourse. Just unzip it on top of the previous version.
v1.5.6 - 2016-02-29 ?-sportman12 (February 29, 2016, 04:33 AM)
Fixed off-by-one date in the extended forecastsHm, for me that's not actually the case, it was displaying correctly before, but now it's off by one:-skwire (February 29, 2016, 02:57 AM)
Ath I am using Windows 10 when I enable the 10 day extended forecast and turn on the "Show dates in extended forecast" It is displaying the incorrect dates. The date for each day are one day forward, I went back to my default of 5 days forecast same thing is theirswe fix please get back to me-sportman12 (February 29, 2016, 02:03 AM)



the camera on the Raspberry Pi, while high resolution, has absolutely no focus control and would not focus well on anything shorter than about 24 inches from itThis page on eLinux.org list a lot of (usb) cameras that are tested with the RPi, but I don't know if they are compatible with the python libraries you've used. Some of them will have better focus control, and you might even own one of them listed-mouser (February 25, 2016, 01:40 AM)


I have ordered raspberry pi and motor control hat and ...Why didn't you use that motor control hat to turn on the dice-roller? Or doesn't it have a relay for switching something external? (probably depends on the model, but a separate relay-hat isn't that expensive) Your python code on the RPi can then directly control the dice-roller without further external devices.-mouser (February 08, 2016, 04:42 PM)



This version works pretty good too.Not if a path is prepended to the filename...-ghendric (February 02, 2016, 11:50 AM)
