01:06 <linext_> so i think i figured out a way to get 3dcustomizer.net some real usage

01:08 <linext_> turn it into a firefox/chrome extension and let it rewrite pages that use Thingiverse Customizer

01:08 <linext_> sort of a soft, opt-in type of launch

01:08 <linext_> that way client-side rendering can be brought to some users

02:16 <InPhase> linext_: Or any thingiverse page with a scad file even if customizer is disabled? :)

02:17 <InPhase> That won't make me use thingiverse again, but maybe a small crowd would appreciate that.

02:17 <InPhase> I used customizer in my designs primarily to reach the hard to reach people.

02:18 <InPhase> ie, the ones who would never install OpenSCAD.

02:50 <ndnihil> if they're not going to install openscad, odds are they aren't going to install a browser extension either

04:00 <InPhase> ndnihil: Right. That was my unspoken thought. So I think such a plugin has a utility, but it wouldn't reach the cross-section of the masses that I was reaching in the good days of the thingiverse customizer.

04:01 <InPhase> Perhaps it could, but really only if thingiverse itself pushed it.

04:02 <ndnihil> https://threedump.com/

04:02 <ndnihil> I'll put it up there

04:03 <ndnihil> whenever I get around to finishing that site

04:03 <ndnihil> it has only been 9 years

04:03 <ndnihil> I'll get to it

04:03 <ndnihil> eventually

04:09 <InPhase> Is the IRC server actually in existence after 9 years? :)

04:10 <ndnihil> yeah

04:10 <ndnihil> it's just a channel on another small network I run

04:10 <InPhase> Ah.

04:11 <ndnihil> I don't think there's anything in there

04:11 <ndnihil> the channel that is

04:11 <ndnihil> maybe the bot

04:11 <ndnihil> nope

04:11 <InPhase> Probably everybody gathered around talking about all the amazing site content.

04:12 <ndnihil> it's all people talk about on the twitters

04:12 <ndnihil> and instatoks

04:12 <InPhase> I do know the feeling. You have a good idea. You lightly start. A decade goes past.

05:15 <gbruno> [github] jordanbrown0 opened issue #4750 (Modules that mimic "for()" behavior) https://github.com/openscad/openscad/issues/4750

06:55 <J23k77> why is this "EXPORT-ERROR: Can't add triangle to 3MF model." happening with lazy union ?

06:58 <J23k77> im getting this if increase resolution so it seems to be related to the mesh size/triangle count

08:23 <guso78k> the dockerfile "docker run -it openscad/appimage-x86_64-base" worked in my place without any issues

08:24 <guso78k> I understand the main purpose of this dockerfile is to provide linuxdeploy and/or appImage

09:51 <Scopeuk> J23k77 I would guess at some artefact of grid snapping but not sure of the best way to check

09:57 <J23k77> Scopeuk it is working if i union them and also if i remove objects or separate one - so it can't be geometry related

13:23 <linext_> InPhase, I could detect when any .scad link is clicked, ask the user to pop open a new tab with 3dcustomzier.net and the code loaded

13:31 <guso78k> linext_is this a desktop feature ?

13:41 <linext_> it would be a browser feature

13:41 <linext_> web browser

13:43 <guso78k> suppose chrome browser is powerful enough

13:51 <Scopeuk> Most modern browsers can register file extensions to "web apps"

20:52 <ndnihil> I broked it

20:52 <ndnihil> https://pst.ndnihil.org/?sBy8Pc

20:53 <ndnihil> funny thing though, that's just 4 parts, and if I render just the one, it works fine

20:53 <ndnihil> the other three are mirrored/rotated versions of that first part

20:54 <ndnihil> and the preview looks fine

20:55 <ndnihil> but if I do it in pairs, and rotate the pairs, it's fine

20:55 <ndnihil> might have had them touching

20:56 <ndnihil> hrm, yes, they were touching

21:10 <teepee> meh, fast-csg not manifold ;-)

21:11 <ndnihil> /tmp/.mount_OpenSCiEoyhw/AppRun.wrapped: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.29' not found (required by /tmp/.mount_OpenSCiEoyhw/AppRun.wrapped)

21:11 <ndnihil> because you show no love for older stabler dists

21:12 <teepee> lets call it ancient

21:12 <ndnihil> lets call it trusty

21:12 <ndnihil> comfy

21:12 <ndnihil> familiar even

21:12 <teepee> yes, had to move to ubuntu 20 as it did not compile on older anymoe

21:13 <ndnihil> see, you defaulted to noobuntu

21:13 <ndnihil> debian is what all the cool kids use

21:13 <teepee> I tried but could not compile the appimage tools on debian 9

21:13 <dTal> sure if ancient greaybeards are cool

21:13 <J23k77> isn't fast CSG obsolet ?

21:13 <ndnihil> and debian a couple releases back is what all the badasses use

21:13 <ndnihil> :)

21:14 <teepee> that's fine, badasses compile themselves anyway, no need for appimages :P

21:14 <ndnihil> or we chroot a newer env and run it there

21:14 <dTal> badasses value living a few years in the past because the world is going to hell

21:15 <ndnihil> I mean, there's truth in that

21:15 <dTal> that's why I said it

21:15 <ndnihil> lots of thing have gotten fucky in the past few years

21:16 <teepee> living in the past will not help though, it only makes things worse, leaving action to the people creating that hell

21:17 <teepee> very distracting

21:17 <ndnihil> eh, if you ignore tv and social media, it's not that bad

22:29 <joseph_> teepee: In the next day or so, I'll have a markdown report ready which I'll post in a pull request. This will serve as the final GSoC submission like last year. However, because this time my contributions have been modular, I'll link to all the previous PRs that have already been merged. My deadline to submit is September 25th, but I know to do it a day or two early

22:31 <teepee> yep, a bit earlier is good and with multiple links is fine, it's pretty normal
