12:06 <guso78> Teepee do you use Windows in virtualbox ?

12:38 <teepee> guso78: no, kvm/qemu

14:19 <teepee> joseph_: Daniel (2nd Org Admin) updated the timeline, for me it now shows: September 18, 2023 – September 25, 2023 Contributor Final Submission

15:56 <joseph_> teepee: Perfect! Thank you

19:27 <dTal> Things I would like in OpenSCAD: pause/continue shortcuts for animation

19:27 <dTal> also, the ability to programmatically specify camera angle

19:28 <dTal> also, the ability to condense stacked transforms into a single transform matrix that can be accessed from code

19:29 <dTal> (this last one you could implement in .scad - probably someone has?)

19:39 <jfhbrook> hey y'all, bad news! a misclick MAY have deleted the files.openscad.org instance 😩 the DO ui is mad confusinig!

19:41 <jfhbrook> sadly, I did not set aside the time today to stand up a new instance properly and life is immediately yanking me away. but I can at least provision an ubuntu instance (needed an upgrade anyway) if I can get the pubkeys people want. can an admin email me, josh.holbrook@gmail.com ? I'll find the time to squeeze this in

19:42 <dTal> uh oh! I hope it was all backed up

19:42 <jfhbrook> and, yeah, I'm sorry. I was trying to delete an old project and DO's UI confused me and put me in the wrong project. super sucks!

19:43 <jfhbrook> sadly, it does not look like it was snapshotted. I honestly assumed it was this whole time.

19:44 <jfhbrook> on the bright side, that machine was running an unsupported OS, at least it'll be upgraded at the end of this

19:45 <dTal> luckily: https://web.archive.org/web/20230720225308/https://files.openscad.org/

19:45 <jfhbrook> I gotta run back to my job, this was supposed to be a quick "during breakfast" kinda cleanup of my personal stuff -_- but I'll keep an eye on my email and bare minimum provision a fresh instance with keys for the approprate admins before end-of-day

19:46 <jfhbrook> I probably won't have time to get everything on easy street as far as infrastructure-as-code today but I can at least unblock the recovery

19:46 <teepee> jfhbrook: I should have some backups, lets talk we have a new server

19:46 <jfhbrook> oh yeah?

19:46 <teepee> not the system stuff but the web part

19:47 <teepee> but I guess we don't actually want the system stuff ;-)

19:48 <jfhbrook> ahhh - so the move might actually be to migrate that stuff to the server you're using for everything else

19:49 <teepee> well, it's not fully setup yet, but it comes from the official funds

19:49 <jfhbrook> oh nice

19:50 <teepee> I suppose we can use it. I don't think there's a huge rush needed, I'll post a note that downloads are down for a bit

19:52 <jfhbrook> ok cool

19:53 <teepee> looks like the last sync is at least from this year, so that should cover most of the stuff, not a huge deal to drop the snapshot builds

19:53 <jfhbrook> I gotta log off libera, but if you email me I should be reasonably prompt with replies, especially once I'm done with the workday

19:53 <jfhbrook> this is all a relief though

19:53 <teepee> yep. me = german time, but we'll find some way to sort this out :)

19:53 <jfhbrook> and yeah, sorry again, and let me know what you need from me and I'll do my best

19:54 <jfhbrook> alaska time here XD

19:54 <jfhbrook> I'll keep an eye on my inbox 👋

19:55 <teepee> dTal: dev snapshot has pause

19:56 <dTal> damn okay looks like I need the dev snapshot

19:56 <dTal> what a shame I can't have it now...

19:57 <teepee> sure you can, just a couple of more clicks. that OS?

19:58 <dTal> what do you mean "that OS?"?

19:58 <teepee> *what*

19:58 <dTal> oh

19:58 <dTal> linux64

19:58 <dTal> *x64

19:59 <teepee> uh, lots of choices :)

19:59 <teepee> Snap, AppImage, Flatpak, Debian/Ubuntu would have native packages

19:59 <dTal> AppImage is best for me!

20:00 <dTal> I do love a good AppImage

20:00 <gbruno> [github] fah opened issue #4722 (Improvement for subtracting and adding parts to an object) https://github.com/openscad/openscad/issues/4722

20:00 <dTal> but where from?

20:00 <teepee> https://github.com/openscad/openscad/commits/master

20:00 <dTal> oh haha silly moi

20:00 <teepee> click the green checkmark at the top commit

20:01 <teepee> details @ master-build

20:01 <teepee> openscad-appimage-64bit

20:01 <teepee> Artifacts Tab

20:02 <dTal> brilliant, thanks!

20:02 <teepee> oh, cool, they fixed that it does not need login anymore, nice

20:02 <dTal> is there some reason why such an obviously improved version isn't an official release? should I expect brokenness?

20:02 <teepee> the fileserver just did that same download via a cron-job :)

20:03 <teepee> nope, it usually runs fine. release problems are mostly not of technical nature

20:04 <teepee> if you want amazing speed, enable Preferences -> Features -> Manifold ;-)

20:04 <teepee> with a slight risk of some models causing issues, the Manifold devs are currently chasing some bugs, so there should be an update pretty soon

20:11 <dTal> oh this is badass

20:12 <dTal> so why isn't it a release?

20:13 <dTal> these features are all extremely sweet

20:13 <dTal> I like the variable editor

20:13 <teepee> I would agree :)

20:13 <teepee> you mean the customizer? that's in the release too, only small changes

20:14 <dTal> oh man and you can make and switch between sets of variables? that's a dangerous one lol

20:14 <dTal> I tend to do that in code :)

20:16 <dTal> oh so it is

20:32 <gbruno> [github] t-paul pushed 2 modifications (Add note about file server being down.) https://github.com/openscad/openscad.github.com/commit/839a40ed05c77d25acd233a2c4593b9f6e02d0cc

20:32 <teepee> I assume that note will be easy to spot :)
