Neat! 👌 I have been hacking on sshbox and refactored it a fair bit to have much more flexible auth methods. In addition I also toyed around with the idea of having a shared (free) unix environment like some of the ones around (whose name eludes me right now 🤦‍♂️), with a couple of key differences and differentiators:

  • The environment you get is actually a Docker container
  • Based on Alpine, but customized.
  • Can persist/detach any background processes you want.
  • And reverse proxy to port 8000 in the container.

In-reply-to » Trying to get some custom T-shirts made. Ordered my first one with Media -- Let's see what eh quality of the print and T-shirt is before I make any more 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net Nice, let’s hope this works out! 🔥🐶🔥 I’ve been wanting to do that, too. Better wait until after Christmas, postal service is jammed now. 😂 (Not really, but I don’t want to add to the congestion.)

In-reply-to » @lyse Mostly small and simple stuff, like cable management, headphone rests, pill dispensers (that I didn’t end up using), … The most elaborate thing I made was that contraption for my keyboard, which is a bit hard to explain right now, so here’s some photos:

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Right, you showed this keyboard stand some time ago. I completely forgot about that.

In-reply-to » Yeah, @eapl.me, I kinda like file extensions in some situations. What do you think of twtxt.exe, @bender? ]:->

@eapl.me@eapl.me @bender@twtxt.net @skinshafi@thunix.net The feed that nobody follows out of fear.

When I started programming in Delphi, I always included all the files (not only the *.exe, but also *.pas and what else there was) when giving friends my programs on floppy disks. I didn’t know that the executable was technically enough. :-)

haha, that’s gold xD.

#randomMemory I remember when I was starting to code, like 30 years ago, not understanding why my Basic file didn’t run when I renamed it to .exe

And nowadays, I’ve seen a few Go apps in a single executable, so twtxt.exe could be a thing, he!

In-reply-to » Goodbye Blender, I guess? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I know, nobody asked 🤡 but, here are a couple of suggestions:

  • If you’re willing to pay for a licence I’d highly recommend plasticity it’s under GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE, Version 3.
  • Otherwise if you already have experience with CAD/Parametric modeling you could give freeCAD a spin, it’s under GNU Library General Public License, version 2.0, it took them years but have just recently shipped their v1.0 👍
  • or just roll with Autodesk’s Fusion for personal use, if you don’t mind their “Oh! You need to be online to use it” thing.

(Let’s face it, Blender is hard to use.)
I bet you’re talking about blender 2.79 and older! 😂 you are, right? JK

I didn’t end up using that, either. 🥴

In general, I print very little. So little that some of my supplies have simply gone bad, like that “3D LAC” (sprayable glue).

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yeah, I saw that when googling the issue. I’m on Linux, there are no DLLs to swap. I could use an older version indeed. 🤔 Let’s see if I can find some better alternative first. (Let’s face it, Blender is hard to use.)

In-reply-to » Imagine if all computer UIs would act like the UI from my NAS system... I feel I need to be waiting for output from the machine like it's 1973.

Yeah, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! “Sorry boss, I accidentally removed the bug report, because the button suddenly materialized under my cursor.” :-D

Luckily, I do not have to deal with that UI from hell for three and a half weeks very soon.

In-reply-to » There's this something about this Halloy #IRC client's look I can't find a proper word for. Aesthetically pleasing maybe? anyway, it feels nice.

@skinshafi@thunix.net I tried it (still have it installed on work laptop), didn’t like it. The comfort I get from having a web based IRC client (and bouncer) available at all times, from everywhere, can’t be easily replaced. :-)

“A graphics card and driver with support for OpenGL 4.3 or higher is required. Installing the latest driver for your graphics card might resolve the issue.”

A bit annoying, but not much of a problem. The only thing I did with Blender was make some very simple 3D-printable objects.

I’ll have a look at the alternatives out there. Worst case is I go back to Art of Illusion, which I used heavily ~15 years ago.
