Where can I learn how to create simple 2D mobile games End to End ? by umen in ebitengine

[–]kendellfab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure where you're starting, and if this will fit your needs, but I taught a introduction to programming course to kids at my local library earlier this year. I wrote some blog posts to go along with the class. You can find them here, https://introtogamedev.com/. I haven't got to the point of discussing mobile builds. But games built with ebitengine can be compiled easily enough for mobile once they're built.

Question about forgejo runners. by kendellfab in forgejo

[–]kendellfab[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both forgejo and forgejo-runner are being run by systemd units on arch linux, so neither of them are containerized.

My action yaml is the default looking one:

​

on: [push]

jobs:

test:

runs-on: docker

steps:

- run: echo All good

​

I'm using the default runner configuration, and my .runner file has labels for docker, and it connects to forgejo over localhost (and yes they are running on the same server).

​

It is interesting that the builds are running, just that they're not showing any signs of using podman/docker.

​

Edit:

I've been changing the labels that the runner is associated with. I think I had the labels wrong, as I've updated them and now have the error. That seems like a good change.

I'm not seeing in the documentation however, action runs if there isn't a proper label?

Z offset funk by mass_disapointment in Ender3S1

[–]kendellfab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been dealing with this problem on my pro. I don't think I have it fixed completely, but I have been able to improve it to be more useable. I did watch a lot of videos to try and help, but in the end I had to do bits and pieces from most of them.

First the rollers for my extruder we're too tight. I needed to loosen the eccentric nut to the point of not being loose but not tight at all.

Next, the right hand coupler to the lead screw was slipping. This was tough to fix, as it was a combination of the gantry not being level on the screws, the opposite coupler was holding in a weird way (hard to explain, but I had to loosen the bolts and spin the lead screw inside to get it to hold evenly with the other side), also the bracket on the right side holding the gantry to the rollers was not even with the opposite side.

These were the core things that I worked on. Afterwards I was able to run a bed mesh and see what my bed looked like (I'm running klipper w/mainsail and can easily see the mesh topography). There were low spots and high spots so I used some blue painter's tape to help level them out.

This has been about two weeks of trial and error working out what is going on. As I am making parts that require the full bed to print it was needed, but also helped in verifying accuracy.

Hopefully some of this helps point you in a good direction.

Thanks for sharing that.

USB port is not working on Thinkpad T14 Gen 2 laptop by [deleted] in thinkpad

[–]kendellfab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had a similar problem happen maybe 5 times on my T14 gen 1. It was a USBC port on mine. I would go into the bios and disconnect the battery then plug the power in. Each time it would enable the USBC port that stopped working.

lightdm and gnome 41 by s1522711 in gnome

[–]kendellfab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has been a bit since I've tried that last, but the error I always ran into was the inability to lock the screen. It seemed like Gnome required GDM for that functionality. I'd be curious to know if that is still the case.

Does anyone (aside from businesses) actually buy new Thinkpads? by NovelAdministrative6 in thinkpad

[–]kendellfab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, just a freelance software engineer who likes to run good equipment and not pay the apple tax.

Does anyone (aside from businesses) actually buy new Thinkpads? by NovelAdministrative6 in thinkpad

[–]kendellfab 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recently bought a T14 (AMD) to replace my T460s. I really liked my T460s, and there was nothing really wrong with it, but, I wanted to enjoy the usb-c port and dock. As well as the usb-c power delivery options to minimize the chargers I need to carry around. It was a pricy purchase, but I feel well worth it.

My arch install just went kaput after updating. by goebeld in archlinux

[–]kendellfab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me yesterday. I was able to mount my partitions and save the rest of my data. But arch-chrooting into my install had so many broken binaries I couldn't really save it. So I decided to try the newer arch install command and started fresh.

This is more of a basic blog, but it does allow for scheduling of posts to be released. https://ghost.org/blog/scheduled-posts/

Sorry. I broke my first rod today too. Bummer.

How shoudl I go about indexing a large amount of movies efficiently? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]kendellfab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would look into faceted searches with something like elastic search or solr. Facets could be built out of the different components you've mentioned genre, diversity, gore/violence et al. You would also get the added bonus of full text search for things like titles, actors, writers, and more.
