M6piz7wk[m]: you can also put symlinks in the lib dir. i do that to point to github repos
<JakeSays>
i'm not much of a fan of submodules for these kinds of things
<JakeSays>
does the thingiverse customizer actually work?
<M6piz7wk[m]>
JakeSays: worked for me
<M6piz7wk[m]>
JakeSays: why not?
<JakeSays>
it's never worked the couple times i've tried
<JakeSays>
M6piz7wk[m]: i don't see the advantage in this use case

<M6piz7wk[m]>
decentralized archive of openscad libraries and downstream management? So that i can do contribution to pegboard-peggrid that is fully integrated in the library, but does not directly depend on the library?
<M6piz7wk[m]>
<JakeSays>
no, for exposing libraries to openscad
<teepee>
M6piz7wk[m]: that was one idea, but it does not scale at all
<JakeSays>
i dont want git repos located in that directory
<JakeSays>
teepee: i have no idea what wordle is, other than it's some kind of game
<teepee>
yep, exactly the same level of knowledge as I have :)
califax has quit [Remote host closed the connection]

peeps[win]: what's the status of the malloc branch? if that takes a while I might rebuild the mxe images temporarily with nsis again as otherwise the current builds fail

anyone have some ideas for 3d printed items to sell online?
<teepee>
clocks seem to work :)
<JakeSays>
i'd sell my clock but it's too damn hard to assemble
<teepee>
those are cool, but I mean just decorative ones with classic clockwork
<InPhase>
PLA brass knuckles might actually work okay, except for the "brass" label.
<InPhase>
At a certain size scale, PLA turns into quite the sturdy brick.
<InPhase>
linext: So with your shower valve spacer, what do you do about the classic problem of the water slowly dripping out the bottom after the shower and it taking forever to stop dripping if you don't push it down? :)
<linext>
InPhase, the problem with my shower is that the you have to pull hard on it to get it to stay in full shower mode
<linext>
so jamming the spacer in there keeps some amount of water from coming out of the facet
<linext>
i don't care so much about slow drips, not sure if my shower does that
<linext>
i think mixing something 3d printed with tritium vials would be cool to sell
<InPhase>
Perhaps use customizer and preprogrammed letters to make tritium vial words?
<InPhase>
Although I'm not sure how many tritium vials it takes in one pile to be hazardous.
<teepee>
but if you explain what's needed, it might be easy to add
<teepee>
lol, based on debian/stretch? that's not happening
<teepee>
well, if it uses a different container for the app, we don't need to care, so that would be ok :)
<buZz>
i wouldnt recommend running openscad 'for everyone' on a vps :P
<macrofarad>
honestly, I'm just looking to see what it'd take to turn openscad into a web interface on my server. I already have slic3r and a bunch of other stuff running that way. Saves me a ton of work when I have to switch computers
<buZz>
unless you like cpu hogs
<teepee>
and the example link is broken :(
<macrofarad>
I'd be spinning it up and down as needed for sure
<teepee>
buZz: not my problem, if someone decides to do that, that's fine by me
<teepee>
macrofarad: what does it mean "turn into web interface", is that via a HTML5 desktop or something
<buZz>
imho quite a stretch (haha) to call a VNC client a 'web page' :D
<teepee>
why not? google docs is also a "web page"
<buZz>
noVNC is just VNC , no clue why they added 'no' to it :P
<teepee>
maybe it's norwegian? :D
<buZz>
oh good point
<buZz>
lets see if i detect vikings
<teepee>
so what do we need to do on OpenSCAD side?
<teepee>
I don't mind adding another image
<macrofarad>
Unraid is a good example of this. Effectively you run the docker app under host:targetport and it makes it pretty nice.
<teepee>
macrofarad: is that slic3r example on github somewhere?
<macrofarad>
yeah, I can grab it
<macrofarad>
one sec
<teepee>
I mean the default images have xvfb-run installed anyway, so it may just need a different entrypoint?
<rvt>
any good alternative for thingyverse? Getting sick and tired of adding my models (all openscad) the side just does not play nice :s
<macrofarad>
That's the one I'm using, it has the git source and a few other things on the page, but I can get more examples if needed. Server I run at home is a 3950X and 64GB of RAM. Basically just runs a ton of containers and VMs with some network file share
<buZz>
at least, most active committers are from sweden
Guest94 has quit [Client Quit]
<teepee>
hmm, so seVNC?
<buZz>
hehe yes :D
<rvt>
@buZz I will take a look at that! thanks…
<Scopeuk>
VNSE ?
<teepee>
rvt: if you have quick preview, and like to have the customizer, there's also cadhub.xyz (still in it's infancy though, hoping it will grow)
<teepee>
and there's a frontend for thingiverse, made by a youtuber
<teepee>
rvt: right, I do want to poke Kurt about adding at least the libraries listed on our libarary page
<rvt>
that would be nice :)
<teepee>
he's still a bit absent lately, so I did not want to intrude, but it would be nice to have some means to manage the libraries via a github repo
<teepee>
the "real" package management is probably not happen very soon
<teepee>
oh, I should add BOSL2 to the list, right now we only have BOSL
<rvt>
historically I picked BOSL2 because that sounded more new :D
<teepee>
I think that's the correct choice :)
<teepee>
for BOSL vs. BOSL2
<teepee>
I've not used it so much, even though it's very cool and very nicely commented
<teepee>
ah, crap
<teepee>
now the MacOS build fails too. when did I mention there's build issues popping up all the time? yesterday? :/
<buZz>
00:12:40 < teepee> and updates on platforms tend to break builds also
<buZz>
:)
<teepee>
oh, even today?
<peeps[zen]>
teepee: do you think it would help simplify things much if we got more builds using CPack? it supports macos bundles apparently, and deb, and rpm
<teepee>
well, it seems to be triggered by newer boost versions
fling has quit [Remote host closed the connection]

peeps[zen]: I don't know, but it feels like a good idea

<rvt>
I only use small parts still… it’s to much to fully grasp the posibilities
<teepee>
rvt: yeah, good thing it's fine to just use parts and extend from there, it certainly has very powerful stuff
<teepee>
my models currently start mostly with ub.scad and the thread library from InPhase (even though ub.scad has threads too :)
<teepee>
and sometimes the round-everything from Kurt
<teepee>
I suppose bosl2 can do all that too
<J2236>
hmm cadhub works with prusaprinter links ( too bad not with my special characters and lib)
J2236 is now known as J22
<J22>
teepee hearing that makes me happy - Ü
<J22>
and the links are bit long https://cadhub.xyz/draft/openscad#fetch_text_v1=https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.prusaprinters.org%2Fmedia%2Fprints%2F92130%2Fstls%2F956367_46ce90da-aa88-418b-b55b-429557e353b7%2Fpolyhedron.scad
<J22>
but it makes me wonder why the download links from the adventcalendar site didn't work
<J22>
like there are download links .. and there are download links .. strange
<InPhase>
teepee has an unfair ub.scad advantage: German fluency. :)
<J22>
inphase everything new and changed is near 100% english - Ü
<J22>
now there is also Star and star besides stern Stern (although they are a little bit different)
<teepee>
InPhase: yep, that's true, but makes the readme a bit confusing as it's in english :)
<teepee>
J22: I think cadhub is a bit picky regarding the content type sent by the website
<J22>
so beside it is a txt file (.scad) the mime type is different?
<J22>
teepee you can have german live support for ub.scad if you want ..
<teepee>
it's fine, the english discussion may help other people too
<teepee>
our webserver might just report application/octet-stream = binary instead of text/plain or whatever works
<teepee>
it's just a guess at this point, I did not check further as I can't change it anyway
<teepee>
so where do I get the new boost lib
<J22>
sounds plausible - first i thought it was because of the download and not display ( which i too haven't figured out what triggers what )
<teepee>
meh, debian unstable also has 1.74
<InPhase>
J22: Ah. I haven't checked on it in a while. :)
<InPhase>
Work has been hectic for about a month.
<J22>
InPhase did you tried the Vollkreis game?

is sad no one uses his libraries :(
<teepee>
anything to put into the library list? right now it only has the funcutils
<peeps[zen]>
well, there's FunctionalOpenSCAD too, haven't updated that in a while though
* J22
is looking at peeps[zen] libs to learn how things are done ..
