]]> Comment on IPP and mDNS via avahi on Debian by robl http://devlogic.org/2007/03/03/ipp-and-mdns-via-avahi-on-debian/comment-page-1/#comment-2054 robl Sat, 01 Aug 2009 23:14:36 +0000 http://devlogic.org/2007/03/03/ipp-and-mdns-via-avahi-on-debian/#comment-2054 update: I just discovered, that CUPS nowadays (that is v. 1.3.8) comes with built-in avahi support. So if you specify this # Enable printer sharing and shared printers. Browsing On BrowseOrder allow,deny BrowseAllow @LOCAL BrowseAddress @LOCAL BrowseProtocols dnssd BrowseLocalProtocols dnssd BrowseRemoteProtocols dnssd in your cupsd.conf, all your CUPS printers will get published by default. The downside however is, that if you - like me - have afp netatalk file shares residing on your server, you still have to run a standalone avahi server to publish those. Unfortunately the built-in and the standalone one seem to interfere with each other: if I restart avahi, my cups printers disappear... guess they perturb each other, depending on the time they've been started up :'(. Would be sweet if anyone knew how to make them play along, because the natively shared CUPS printers seem to be very tightly integrated, i.e. you don't even have to install drivers at your side but can use the ones on the server side. update: I just discovered, that CUPS nowadays (that is v. 1.3.8) comes with built-in avahi support.

How did you know it was the txt records? They are nowhere explained in detail and I guess you have to know your way around DNS yourself... would love to know what those mean though. Did you change anything in the cupsd.conf?

]]> Comment on Sewing for Guys: Project Equipment – The Pattern by devlogic http://devlogic.org/2009/05/31/sewing-for-guys-project-equipment-the-pattern/comment-page-1/#comment-2033 devlogic Mon, 01 Jun 2009 15:24:31 +0000 http://devlogic.org/?p=718#comment-2033 Generally, you cut the pattern pieces out of the tissue before you pin them to the (uncut) fabric. There's a cutting diagram as part of the instructions, that tells you how to lay the pieces out on the fabric in an efficient manner (to minimize wasted fabric). Sometimes, if the pattern pieces have multiple sizes on the same physical piece of paper and you want to be able to make a different size in the future (usually there are several slightly different curved lines, one for each size), you'll cut around the whole lot of 'em, leaving a blank margin around the lines where they're different, mark the lines for the size you want using a chalk wheel and then fold the pattern back before cutting the fabric.

I have watched videos where they do but it seems like such a waste of the pattern... is there a way around that?

I've had great luck with it helping me lose a little over 30 pounds, and if my experience can help someone else, that would be great. That's awesome, Paul! Keep it up!

For example, when you mark pockets or buttonholes. It just depends on the pattern. Actually, you have to transfer marks to the right side of the fabric quite frequently.

I still want to do things like move all of the "customizable" stuff out to a config file, and maybe add new features like keeping track of the titles that have been read, to eliminate the "did I read this yet?" that I've encountered too much recently.

I've also been looking for something like this as well for a while now. I actually gave up a few weeks ago and started writing down some notes on paper and sketching up some thoughts on how I wanted this to work. Its great to see I'm not the only one out there who wants a web-based solution to viewing my CBR files. Have you thought about sharing your code at all, maybe turning it into a Sourceforge project?
