| MooDoo | morning davmor2 | 08:31 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 08:39 |
| davmor2 | MooDoo: I'm thinking I must be after watch hudson hawk now I got swinging on a star stuck in my head | 08:41 |
| Myrtti | ooh, it's an OpenSourcerer | 08:44 |
| selinuxium | Hi all o/ | 08:46 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | lol | 08:47 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Needed to jump on #reprapro to ask a question ;-) | 08:47 |
| selinuxium | 'lo TheOpenSourcerer. | 08:47 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Morning all. | 08:47 |
| davmor2 | TheOpenSourcerer: good morning | 08:48 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | I spent most of yesterday helping my son to build this: https://reprappro.com/documentation/fisher-beta/ | 08:48 |
| MooDoo | davmor2: great film | 08:49 |
| davmor2 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8KvM3vZo0w | 08:52 |
| popey | TheOpenSourcerer: oh, it arrived? | 09:06 |
| popey | I thought you'd ordered it, didn't realise you got it already | 09:06 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Nah - Grandad bought it for him :-) | 09:06 |
| popey | ooh, it's a delta printer! | 09:06 |
| popey | nice | 09:06 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | I was very impressed with the build | 09:07 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | so far. | 09:07 |
| popey | how far did you get? | 09:07 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Instructions were great, all the bits were nicely finished. | 09:07 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | We got to this stage: https://reprappro.com/documentation/fisher-beta/connecting-rods/ | 09:07 |
| zmoylan-pi | that's a really elegant looking 3d printeer... | 09:07 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all; happy Monday, and happy Miniature Golf Day! 😃 | 09:08 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | We filmed the assembly using a frameapp so we have a 3minute video of about 5 hours assembly :-) James will be putting this on his blog shortly I think :-) | 09:08 |
| popey | i notice there's some missing photos on the wiki, might be useful to upload yours if they're good | 09:09 |
| popey | great way to contribute back before he's even finished his build | 09:09 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | I really enjoyed the build process. It's a very clever design and well thought out. | 09:13 |
| Myrtti | we should be getting a 3D printer soonish too. I've no idea what kind | 09:22 |
| Myrtti | I know we're going to have a PeachyPrinter too but this one that's supposedly (not really) been shipped is a normal filament kind. That's all I know | 09:22 |
| zmoylan-pi | as a d&d gamer we could use one to make a fair few models or critturs for our table top maps generic ones to reduce the amount of monsters carried | 09:24 |
| Myrtti | https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/m3d/the-micro-the-first-truly-consumer-3d-printer/description apparently | 09:25 |
| popey | that is cute looking | 09:26 |
| Myrtti | looking at it now, I'm starting to wonder if it will be able to print me a new case for my knitting machine that would accommodate the Arduino | 09:26 |
| zmoylan-pi | wouldn't the plastic be too soft? | 09:26 |
| Myrtti | oh it's not for storing the knitting machine | 09:27 |
| zmoylan-pi | ah, my bad | 09:27 |
| Myrtti | it's to replace an ABS cover that I've had to take off to take the old controls off and to connect the Arduino instead | 09:27 |

| zmoylan-pi | right, coffee and biccie... | 10:13 |
| NET||abuse | how do i see what commands a launcher icon is using? | 10:28 |
| NET||abuse | there's no easy way to inspect the "shortcut" of a launcher | 10:28 |
| foobarry | have you seen this vid about the clock? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEmSwJTqpgY&app=desktop | 10:28 |
| foobarry | "if you think this is an invention , you've been fooled" | 10:28 |
| NET||abuse | eg.. i just upped from 14.10 to 15.04 yesterday on this laptop, and now spotify isn't launching, i get no error when i click on the icon, but to figure out what command it's running it's non-obvious how to debug the issue, | 10:28 |
| MooDoo | oh i read about that this morning...sigh | 10:28 |
| foobarry | "the clock is a commercial clock removed from its casing" | 10:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | o/ my first gizmos were broken things that i remounted on lego chassis to make operational again | 10:30 |
| shauno | seen a few of those vids now. always priceless seeing the look of achievement on a grown adult's face when he manages to one-up a 14yo nerd. | 10:34 |
| popey | NET||abuse: look in /usr/share/applications for the spotify desktop file | 10:36 |
| NET||abuse | ah yeh, i know where the apps are as someone who's experienced with ubuntu, but i was just wondering was it the only way, | 10:39 |
| NET||abuse | it's not a very accessible interface is unity. | 10:39 |
| NET||abuse | even if it's neatly tucked away somewhere to not overload the user interface, there still should be a route to seeing what's behind a launcher icon. right click->properties type of thing, show me what command it's running, or let me modify the command it's running, or add a show in folder option, some way to show what's behind that icon. | 10:41 |
| NET||abuse | otherwise you just have to read up on the "conventions of unity" which if my programming days tought me anything, convention over configuration isn't always best | 10:41 |
| popey | indeed | 10:42 |
| NET||abuse | anyway, just ranting | 10:42 |
| popey | it was one of the first bugs I filed on unity | 10:42 |
| NET||abuse | :) | 10:42 |
| NET||abuse | i've just switched back from arch/gnome to ubuntu after 3 months, and gotta say, there's alot to like on the gnome side | 10:43 |
| NET||abuse | but in'm only 24 hours into it.. give it 2 weeks and i'll see how i feel. | 10:43 |
| Myrtti | NET||abuse: usually it's a foobar.desktop file | 10:46 |
| Myrtti | in /usr/share/applications/ | 10:46 |
| Myrtti | oh, too late | 10:46 |
| Myrtti | popey was hiding behind quits and joins | 10:46 |
| NET||abuse | Myrtti: oh i know where they are, /usr/share/applications;/$HOME/.local/application | 10:46 |
| NET||abuse | s | 10:46 |
| Myrtti | I blame my lack of new glasses | 10:47 |
| NET||abuse | I was really just raising frustration with the opaqueness unity implements | 10:47 |
| NET||abuse | and that's what grinds my gears.. | 10:48 |
| NET||abuse | back to you Tom! | 10:48 |
| popey | NET||abuse: bug 705007 | 11:18 |
| lubotu3 | bug 705007 in unity-launcher-editor "Unity has no method to maintain properties of launchers" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/705007 | 11:18 |
