That sounds awfully complicated for home use.

Zero trust, but you have to use Amazon AWS, Cloudflare, and make your own Telegram bot? And have the domain itself managed by Cloudflare.

Sounds like a lot of trust right there… Would love to be proven wrong.

Servus! Thank you for the good work!

I haven’t had a session yet and it’s not likely to be in the near future, but I’ve bookmarked this and will most likely try THIS over Hero Kids at the next opportunity. Then I will hunt down this comment and give you an update.

than reproducing a desktop

Oh you sweet summer child 😊

I get what you mean, I really do, but the mobile launcher is very different from desktop.

Let me find an image of what a mobile desktop used to look like. It was literally the original Windows95 desktop, complete with recycle bin and start menu and task bar. Now that does not work on a mobile device, and modern phone launchers are light years ahead of those olden days.

I hope this link works:

😲 13 years?? I had no idea! Wild. Okay maybe I need to find a modern alternative - but haven’t found anything yet that’s so nice as Nova was.

Nova just worked so well for me. Have looked into other launchers and they just aren’t the bee’s knees. ADW might not be the best either.

Thank you! Idont know when I will be in a position to really play this, but it’s now on my list!

One more question - is there a simple way to just download a bunch of pdfs if I don’t want to go visit my local printer, as you recommend in every readme?

I just reset my phone (because reasons) and while I was happy to use Nova for so many years, I decided to switch - trying ADW Launcher now.

Looks like it was a smart move.

I couldn’t make the downloads work in my phone but visited the Gitlab pages to make it work.

It appears that (some parts of?) this is available in English and in German, which would be perfect for me.

Would this be suited to playing with kids, too?

Mattermost runs as a Docker container and is excellent. You can create channels and groups which is incredibly useful.

And amazing is is. It has almost completely replaced my use of Google Photos 👍

“Not available in your country” - am not surprised.

I was not aware Google Meet even still exists. Haven’t heard a peep about it in ages. Everyone uses MS Teams at work, and shitty whatsapp at home.

I’m with you, and we can make quite cool things in TinkerCad. To translate my question to your shape: if you decide to have larger rotors, or longer arms, you would have to fiddle with groups for a very long time, right? In comparison, with e.g. FreeCad and a shitload of parameters, that would be quick (but you’d need to spend a lot of time defining all those parameters… but only once, though).

Lofts and sweeps and pockets FTW! That does look like the right solution for single objects.

What about objects that sit at an angle relative to each other? Can you define workplanes (sketches) at arbitrary angles? Can you later slide those planes up/down, e.g. to add more distance from the face it would sit on? For instance, in the above object, the holders on the blue face are tilted 14 degrees from the blue base, and the little red holder in front is tilted an additional 5 degrees and lifted 6mm from the front of the larger red holder.

Yes, tapered in all directions at once. For instance one of the walkies has a rectangular base and an almost straight-up backside, but the front tapers outward. At the same time, the sides taper too, but different angle and height than the front. There are almost no right angles on these shapes anywhere, which is tedious to model.

I’ve looked at OpenSCAD but it’s honestly too much coding for me. TinkerCad is so rewarding because it’s fast and easy to get nearly to the finish line – but I know that any kind of parametric is a win in the long run, because changing one constraint makes everything else auto-adjust rather than having to take apart and build again.

I’m sure they meant “in the end” and not “it’s about time”.

I don’t follow you. Look at the photo, the thing is made of triangles. It’s the best shape. So I wonder, why use more than just one? Why make the shape require more than one triangle?

I take it there’s another holder on the other side.

May I ask why the complex shape, rather than just having a triangle with two points on the 4040 rail and the third point being the axle position?

Man, I feel you. I hate Mattermost for its utter inability to run on anything else than port 8065 specifically.
