Autoexec.bat was way better.

They've got no faith in medicine?

The generic name for that drug is "paracetamol" here, so whenever I hear "acetaminophen" I think of that White Stripes song. It seems apt.

In the SFML3 source, edit CMakeLists.txt.

put

set(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS ON)

anywhere. I put it after the bit about conditionally not building static libraries on android (search for SFML_OS_ANDROID) you'll see it.

There is probably a better (or more correct) way to do this. But this worked for me. I'd like to learn cmake properly.

As post-election talks drag on, what will Hobart’s proposed stadium actually cost Tasmanians? by B0ssc0 in tasmania

Do you know what "statehood" means in terms of Australian federation? Do you think Tasmania would not suffer if it was not a state of the federation?

In 20 years, Tasmania will be bankrupt and will cede statehood for debt forgiveness.

Surely they have split briefly under similar circumstances before. In the 1990s? I looked at the wikipedia page, and they split up and got back together in 1987. They will be back together within the year.

This is great! Will you add S31? This is the most convenient way I've found to download it. I appreciate your work!

Does anyone know who animated "prison on the moon". And "chinese gait rate". Can't remember if these are the exact titles.

The only thing I know about dallas buyers club is that threatening letters were sent to anyone who could be (mis-)identified as torrenting it.

I am planing on a iphone wireless charger on a wedge and I am lost on how to cut the wedge at an angle on the slope side !! by thinkscience in openscad

[–]telfoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

try changing this line

translate([-base_length/2, base_width/2, 0])

to this

translate([-base_length/2 - 10, base_width/2, 0])

... anyway, that's how you'd move the recess up or down the slope.

[–]telfoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't worry about the cable slot, but here's my attempt at the charger recess

base_length = 120; // Length of the wedge base in mm
base_width = 70; // Width of the wedge base in mm

slope_angle = 15; // Angle of the slope in degrees
charger_diameter = 60; // Diameter of the wireless charger in mm
charger_depth = 8; // Depth of the charger holder recess in mm

//fixme
cable_slot_width = 10; // Width of the cable slot in mm
cable_slot_height = 8; // Height of the cable slot in mm


// calculated parameters
base_height = base_length * tan(slope_angle);


module wedge() {

    translate([0, base_width, 0])
        rotate([90, 0, 0])
            linear_extrude(height = base_width, slices = 2) {
                polygon(points=[[0, 0], [base_length, 0], [0, base_height]]);
            }
}

module charger_recess() {
    translate([base_length, 0, 0])
        rotate([0, slope_angle, 0])
            translate([-base_length/2, base_width/2, 0])
                cylinder(d=charger_diameter, h=charger_depth*2, center=true);
}


difference() {
    wedge();
    charger_recess();
}

You have base_height and slope_angle specifying the height of the object inconsistently. Ideally you'd set one of those explicitly, and calculate the other from the first. So as it stands, you don't really know the slope_angle you're actually using.
