Yup. What should happen is that your home's IP address should be banned unless you are logged in.

apcalc: Sorry for the annoyance for some of you. I prefer focusing on the next release which gets rid of the installer instead of trying to debug these issues.

By getting rid of the installer, do you mean we will just send a program like any other to the Nspire from now on?

This has been done already.

Actually, the way it is set up, you would not even be able to browse the forums while logged in either from your parents home. I may lift it after a week or so due to the banning policies here, but if he does it again the IP would be banned whenever you don't have to go use the computer at your parents home.

DJ  Omnimaga: you'll need an on-calc installation, only once after a reset.

For the moment yes, but making it persistent could be possible in the future.

Ok cool, thanks for the info

Btw, I wrote a small random number generator
int SEED = 12345;

int myrandint(int low, int high)
{
int rand = *(volatile unsigned*) 0x900D000C;
rand = ((rand * SEED) % (high - low)) + low;
return rand;
}

*(volatile unsigned*) 0x900D000C reads the current time from the RTC.

Actually, that is a 16-bit increasing counter that the OS has set up to increase 32768 times per second.

^ This.

Setting the seed won't really do much, but I figured I'd add it anyways   I think I used this method for getting random numbers from BBC Basic on-calc.
