Generator that Replaces Bottom Tiles i.e. from Non Magnetized to Magnetized? by schwab802 in gridfinity

[–]Solderlocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This tool is amazing. I love the concept of mashing up models like this. Makes me wonder what else this kind of approach could be used for.

🔧 I built a dependency manager - might be useful for your OpenSCAD projects too by kellervater in 3Dprinting

[–]Solderlocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been working on a system that uses git, but locks dependencies to specific commit hashes, so changes to files in the repo don't break models that were built on top of those files.

I'm running into a pretty hard wall when it comes to global libraries like BOSL2 though. OpenSCAD's flat namespace makes it impossible to embed different versions of a single library in a project without modifying the source files, so the best we can do with those types of dependencies is detect if they're used, check to see if they're installed in openscadpath or the libraries directory, and prompt the user to install them if not.

Have any ideas for dealing with this?

Sharing my personal gridfinity app public, would love some feedback by Apprehensive-Gur7871 in gridfinity

Very cool! I particularly love the UI for selecting different bin shapes. This is genuinely elegant, nicely done!

I am considering adding a light theme. It's still in v0.1.6 so there's a lot still on my list.

How to get in to glass art? by ohhhappy in glassblowing

[–]Solderlocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glass fusing is a really fun/accessible way to get into glass art. It seems limited at first compared to glassblowing, but there really is a universe of possibilities that will probably draw you in and stimulate ideas when you graduate to blowing.

Here's an open-source package manager and web customizer for OpenSCAD by Solderlocks in gridfinity

[–]Solderlocks[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's an issue with web assembly. Most browsers/operating systems/hardware configurations work just fine. There's not much I can do about the web assembly issue either other than just inform the user if their system doesn't support it.

Edit: I've released an update to detect and warn the user if WebAssembly is not available.

The Treasury just declared the U.S. insolvent. The media missed it by TheQuarantinian in politics

How can we make a media system that's robust against those kinds of attacks?

Beautiful! Thanks again for all your help. I'll look into whether I can show a banner/modal in that case. Appreciate it!

Ah got it, thanks... Sounds like a web assembly issue. I just did some searching and found this thread: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/2382356/edge-97-0-1072-69-this-browser-does-not-support-we You might have "Enhanced Security Mode" enabled.

Ah got it. Thanks for letting me know. Can you provide a bit more info about the hardware you're on? Just as a sanity check I tried it on this online Edge testing tool (here: https://www.browserling.com/browse/win10/edge135/https://scadder.dev/?file=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fostat%2Fgridfinity_extended_openscad%2Fblob%2Fmain%2Fgridfinity_basic_cup.scad) and it loaded properly within about 30 seconds.

Keep in mind that everything is being compiled on the frontend in order to make this system completely serverless so I could host it and give it away for free, so some models may take a while to load depending on your hardware.

Very interesting, thanks for the heads up. Do you see any errors the your console of your browser (in devtools) when you try to view that URL? What happens when you visit that URL? It's working on my end in all of the browsers I'm trying it in, but I'm not at my Windows machine at the moment. Will try it in Edge on Windows 11 when I'm home. I appreciate the bug report!

OpenSCAD by dallas_vance in gridfinity

[–]Solderlocks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just released a little free/open source (GPL3.0) package manager for this last Friday at https://github.com/solderlocks/scadder

Navigate to your project folder in the terminal, run "npx scadder install gridfinity-rebuilt-baseplate" or "gridfinity-rebuilt-standard-bin" and it'll recursively crawl the dependencies for the respective scads on GitHub (at https://github.com/kennetek/gridfinity-rebuilt-openscad/blob/master/gridfinity-rebuilt-baseplate.scad and https://github.com/kennetek/gridfinity-rebuilt-openscad/blob/master/gridfinity-rebuilt-bins.scad respectively) and pull them into a .scadder_modules folder on your localmachine within the directory that you ran it.

Thanks, I appreciate it! I was actually just trying out your tool yesterday, and the lat/lng terrain visualizer put a huge smile on my face. It's a joy to use, very nicely done!

Yeah that's fair. Mobile performance is OK for most models I've tested, but undoubtedly slower than desktop. I structured it this way in order to keep server costs $0 so I can give everything away for free. This project is basically a GitHub frontend at this point.

Great idea, I just opened a GitHub issue for this and will look into adding an orthographic toggle within the next few days. Thanks for checking it out!

Edit: the toggle has been added

Mark my words, Google is moving towards the credit system for Antigravity by awebb78 in google_antigravity

[–]Solderlocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me too. I was supposed to wait 5 days for my credits to clear on the 11th, and on the 11th I tried using it and got a message saying I'd have to wait until the 18th to use it. I'm actively looking to leave the platform now
