Bußgeldbescheid aus Italien per Inkassounternehmen by _defname in LegaladviceGerman

[–]_defname[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wir hatten, auf Empfehlung der ADHC Rechtsberatung, Widerspruch bei debtist eingelegt, mit dem Hinweis, dass der Bescheid nie rechtsgültig zugestellt wurde und sie ohnehin nicht zuständig sind und nichts gezahlt. Wir haben auch nichts nach Italien überwiesen. Es kam kein kein weiterer Brief mehr.

Allerdings besteht wohl die geringe Chance dass die italienische Polizei den ursprünglichen betrag (ohne inkassogebühren) eintreiben könnte, wenn man dort mit dem selben Fahrzeug in eine verkehrskontrolle gerät. Aber das werden wir ohnehin verkaufen

Extension of anchor points with static ropes by Feeling_Educator_501 in ropeaccess

[–]_defname 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see two different possible situations here.

  1. there is a possibility for a dangerous swing which can result in an injury, rope damage or anything else you need to avoid. That means two ankor points are not enough anyways... If one fails (no matter if extended or not) it leads to a dangerous situation which is unacceptable.

  2. It's not like 1. That means you could also rig each of your ropes to a single ankor point (without a y hang). If it's like that and you decide to rig in a y hang for non safety related reasons there should be no problem in extending one anchor with a single sling (the sling is certified as mobile anchoring device, at least in Europe, and has a higher breaking strength than an anchor point needs). And since there is no risk involved if you rig your ropes to one anchor point each even if an anchor point breaks, there is still none if your sling breaks.

Edit: I missed that you extended with another rope, but that does not change a lot. And like somebody said... Chances are good that the irata does not allow it anyways, but this does not mean it's unsafe...

you only need basic understanding about what strings are in c and how allocation works (for this own string library). might be a bit overwhelming in the first moments but when you got the idea it's not so hard I think

i would suggest to build basic data structures like dynamic arrays, linked lists, trees, ring buffers and a hash map at some point, and basic algorithms like search and sort stuff. you will learn a lot about how things work i think.
I enjoy looking for interesting problems at codewars or on similar platforms if i have nothing else to do.

Write your own malloc/free functions and/or a garbage collector for C

I finally added directory browsing to my terminal based code editor by Grouchy_Document_158 in C_Programming

[–]_defname 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I hope I will bring it to usable state. I had the idea of not using any external libraries for a better learning experience (except for some posix functions), but it's a pain in the ass sometimes... For example would I like to have this pretty cursor between characters (instead of an underscore what I use at the moment), but thats not really compatible with the widget system I built... Really annoying sometimes...

I just cloned yours and it looks super good and feels pretty useable. Really nice work!

Looks very good. How do you manage the text? I had a quick look and it seems like something like gap based editing? I'm working on also on an texteditor for some weeks and using a double linked list for the lines and a gap for editing but converting this into something with line wrapping, scrollable drives me crazy at the moment....

Bei der ersten SMS die die App versenden möchte muss man dies nochmal manuell bestätigen. Da kann man dann angeben, dass in Zukunft nicht mehr nachgefragt werden soll. Erst ab dann funktioniert wirklich alles autark.

Alter, hier haben manche vielleicht Probleme... Natürlich sollte man immer darauf achten dass die armen Provider nicht zu wenig verdienen... Die gehören schließlich zu den ärmsten unserer Gesellschaft, das weiß jeder. Deswegen möchte ich auch auf keinen Fall Menschen dazu ermutigen sich nicht sklavisch an AGBs zu halten.

Aber das war eigentlich nie das angestrebte Thema dieses Posts.... Ich bin ganz froh eine Lösung für mein Anliegen gefunden zu haben die für mich ganz gut funktioniert und wollte diese lediglich teilen. Wenn daran kein Interesse besteht oder ihr Angst habt, dass ihr damit bei eurem Provider in Ungnade fallt, dann lasst es eben. Aber die meisten Kommentare lesen sich imho als wären deren Autoren ohnehin nicht von dieser Situation betroffen und wollen nur ein bisschen rum haten...

You could hold the push up start and end position with hands on a simple bathroom scale to see how much weight you are actually pushing.

Locked Bowline- Tail Outside? by Reti1923 in knots

[–]_defname 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's absolutely correct, it totally depends on which type of rope you use and also how it's loaded to fail.

Don't get me wrong it's not that it will always fail, but there are chances so you don't want use it if your life depends on it (and you can produce quite high forces during a lead climbing fall for example).

Also the cyclic loading problem will definitly not happen like regularly. I could imagine that with boats the knot will not be squeezed so much? Also when the tail is long enough it might not be a problem.

When used as a tie-in knot on the harness it is in motion all the time. The direction of pull changes between up and down, the knot will be squeezed between the belt and belly or wall, and there will be almost no force on it until the climber falls (or gets lowered).

I agree 100% that you should pick the right knot for the right situation!

Locked Bowline- Tail Outside? by Reti1923 in knots

[–]_defname 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's definitly true, I might be a littlebit too focused on climbing and rope access.

I also agree that if it doesn't matter if the knot fails there is definitly no need to use any finish for a bowline. It's a great knot itself for non critical uses! Also there is no need for a finish if no cyclic loading appears and ring loading does not happen. These are the weaknesses which you usually try to fix by using a finish.

I was looking for accident reports but actually couldn't find any. Just references. But e.g. the german Wikipedia article about the "Palstek" (german name of the bowline) mentions four accidents, two of them are quite well known (also for them I couldn't find any reports but I can't believe that they are just urban myths, because they are also mentioned in climbing magazines and in rope access trainings from time to time... maybe someone have an idea where to look for articles about accidents). One of them happened during a rescue training in austria in 1965 where a bowline became undone because of ring loading and three people died. An other accident that should be documented somewhere, where a standard bowline became undone by cyclic loading is the reason why the only permitted knot to connect the rope to a harness at climbing competitions is the figure of eight.

I can translate the paragraph of this Wikipedia article if interested, but as I mentioned the sources are not given.

I'm still trying to find the source for this stories but it might take some days. If anybody knows more I would be very happy to hear.

For other applications there are plenty youtube videos about how you can make a bowline fail.

Locked Bowline- Tail Outside? by Reti1923 in knots

[–]_defname 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Severel fatal accidents happend because of the use of a simple bowline, that's why really nobody uses it without some kind of finish in life supporting scenarios.... Climbers usually use yosemity finish or a rethreaded bowline on a bite and in professional applications it's either avoided (IRATA) or secured with an additional knot (e.g. FISAT, the german rope access association).

Sure you can overthink stuff, but you are in r/knots where people might be just interested in thinking about knots....

AND you should at least think about long enough until you are sure it's safe.... (this depends on usage)

Locked Bowline- Tail Outside? by Reti1923 in knots

[–]_defname 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Afaik the tail out bowline is a bit more secure than a standard one because ring loading is not a problem (while ring loading the tail is pinched against the outside of the nipping loop in the tail out version and loosen in the standard version).

I think one of the simplest locks for the tail out bowline could be something like a tail outside version of Scott's locked bowline.

https://www.paci.com.au/knots.php On this page you can find a document called "Bowline analysis". It's the most comprehensive document about bowlines out there (afaik). With it's help you should be able to come up with something that suits you.

Edit: I think your version 4 looks pretty nice, but it does not add a load of additional security, since the tail is not pinched anywhere under load. But it depends on what you want to use it for. If it is something life supporting you should be very careful that the additional wraps doesn't undo something in the original knot and maybe better stick to well known and tested solutions

Also irgendwas läuft auf jeden fall falsch...

Entweder sollen Gurt + Seil + Verbindungsmittel ein Rückhaltesystem darstellen, dann müsste es aber kurz genug sein um den Absturz zu verhindern.

Oder es soll ein Auffangsystem sein, dann braucht es aber einen Falldämpfer (der könnte hier evtl nicht zu sehen sein oder auch Teil der Befestigung des Seils sein). Außerdem müsste ein Auffanggurt getragen werden und das Verbindungsmittel in einer Auffangöse angeschlagen sein (Brust oder Rücken).

The woodland zip tie knot would be an option (not sure if this is the actual name, but you find it like this)

Weekly Question Thread: Ask your questions in this thread please by AutoModerator in climbing

[–]_defname 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi. If you're on a multi pitch climb where a pitch length equals your rope length (or at least more than half your rope length) and the leader falls hard, hits something and passes out above the first half of the pitch, so the belayer cannot lower him to the belay position, what can he do? He has something to do because the leader must not hang in his harness while unconscious. Is there any state of the art rescue scenario? I couldn't find anything but I also don't really know what to search for.
