(...) Personally I have no problem with NNTP and would happily stick with it. Unfortunately most of the internet will not. So our choices (as I see them) are as follows: 1) Stick with LUGNET with NNTP but suffer a lack of new users who either can't (...) (13 years ago, 6-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) NNTP is simply a more efficient protocol than HTTP for forums. I can't see the point in wasting time on web interfaces to forums, when NNTP is so much more efficient - and allows me to pick a user interface I like. Play well, Jacob (13 years ago, 6-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Yes, why stay with obsolete methods that are 300-3000% more efficient for reading text messages, why stay with 'one click reads everything' when we can use the much more modern 'upmty-eleven clicks may find everything but you will probably (...) (13 years ago, 6-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

I have a question about this latest parts update. Many of the new parts have file names longer than 8 characters, and none of them will load into MLCad. They just throw up "file not found" errors. (This is MLCad 3.30.) Is there something I need to (...) (13 years ago, 6-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) It's possible that LDView is running out of memory. Taking a snapshot with a high resolution would take more memory than loading the model in the UI, but the difference shouldn't be huge. 3000 parts is a fair number, but I wouldn't think it (...) (13 years ago, 31-Jul-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Travis, I've tried to open it manually with LDView and that works. It happens with all of my models that have around 3000 parts and 3 layers max (with this I mean model-submodel-subsubmodel). I've taken a look at the activity when I try to (...) (13 years ago, 30-Jul-11, to lugnet.cad)
