I don't want to use the USB-C at the back of the Frame (needed for charging). I'm engeenering a USB hub for the PCIe port, using internal USB connectors to save space, and universal switch between USB-C, MicroUSB, USB-A, ... . 5Gbits per port, 5GBits combined, 2 ports. 25×43 mm, might get it smaller

I became a professional cycle watcher today. I spend most of my day watching CI status indicators. I’m so skilled I can watch three of them at the same time. Current elapsed times: 1:41h, 2:14h, and 3:07h. They are all yellow 🟡

Story time: I started on VRChat with Vive Pro Eye, continued on another, and another, ... over 2.5years ago, i replaced it with a Quest 3 to stretch the gap until Steam Frame releases. I thought i would hold a Steam Frame on xmas or CES in my hands. I was so wrong. I'm finally back with ET and FT 😊

VRC Light Volumes v.3.0.0 released! New features: EVSM shadows, separate speculars, light clustering, animated cookies, area light cookies, shader stripping, improved performance and more! github.com/REDSIM/VRCLi... #VRCLV #VRChat #Gamedev #Unity #Shader #VR

All my local deliver websites show only AI generated food pictures for months. I slop the slop, more worthless can't the content be. Atleast i get my slop in hand cards instead of an ugly list now.

I worked in last week's only on logos, 2D art, documentation, and whatever steam asks for an object tracking release next month. I was watching mojo and babygirl working hard today. While I was staying next to them like a groupie. Happy seeing how things working out and coming together.

Some highlights from today's photo shoot. feat. babygirxy / @hackebe.in #VRChatPhotography #VRChat

I want to hear your questions about #VRChat! Lets see how VRChat AMA on Friday goes. Maybe i bring it back every week or so. If you don't know me: I live on this platform for 8 years, while breathing the bits and bytes in this game. Read more about me at the wiki: wiki.vrchat.com/wiki/User:Us...

Actively packing things, but the colored print finished so i had to put the demo back together before putting it all away again. Looks great!

Canny runs VRChat's feedback boards. It told customer companies an Aug 28 security incident may have exposed names, emails, profile pictures, IPs, and feedback posts. Canny will not contact end users. VRChat has not published a public notice yet. feedback.vrchat.com #VRChat

Finally, I take more then once per year a shower!

RED_SIM@sim.red

Working on a GPU particles rain system that can work together with VRC Light Volumes and my prototype of a volumetric fog. Every raindrop creates ripples and small droplets from it. Bluesky compresses the quality like crazy, it looks 100 times better in game.

Live #VRChat feed. Worlds, avatars, events, official posts, Booth, Reddit, Canny, and a lot more on one page. vrchat-feed.hackebein.dev I want feedback, and I want sources. Discord, MyOshi, and some more are planned. What else should be in here?

MOTD: You all should get this! Raw record, straight from the virtual space! #VRChat

Let's look up at the moon. Made an arial hoop/lyra prefab in a moon design, available on vpm.hackebein.dev. Drop-in installation. #VRChat

Imagine this for Avatars and Worlds with a 360deg or path animation. Looking forward for a creator who likes to release an avatar/world as vpm package to work with!

VRChat for Steam Frame is live. Native Android/SteamOS build 2026.2.3 (1862) is on Steam’s public branch. We have the client before we have the hardware. Very 2026. #SteamFrame #VRChat

Object Tracking for #VRChat Version 1.0-beta.1 is here! Follow the link and add the Package as shown on the image. Instructions and Application are inside. Check the Readme. vpmm.dev#/packages/ha... Join my Discord for Support discord.gg/AqCwGqqQmW Tag me when you build something with it!

The cube did grow to sketch my own VTuber Studio in #VRChat. No time, uncut video, tracking issues included.

Vodka Martini. Shaken, not stirred. - Bug. Happy debugging after midnight. But i'm out of Martini. A issue in the deeps of a blendtree. #BTS #VRChat

Release 1.0? Soon! Probably a beta this week. I have some some edge case bugs for you all to experiance before the release. I'm excited to see what you will bring to VRChat!

It took already to long to come to this point. I disappointed many people on this journey of my Object Tracking project for #VRChat. I'm working on the 1.0 release. We are faster on remote then IK, which will later be shifted into smoothing. Left = local. right = remote.

If you are new and don't know what this is: You are looking at an complete OSC driven cube in VRChat, which i cycle through all tracked devices (controller, tracker, basestation, headset)

Solution to patch your own repository: search `@fluentui/web-components` and replace with `@fluentui/web-components@2.6.1` (2 in total)

I designed my first PCB. It's for a secret project. I made some funny mistakes. The fuel gauge reads +3.3V, which is equivalent to an always empty battery. When not charging, it reboots instead of powering off.

Quarterly party this Friday, 21:00 CEST. I have never used more then color picker in Photoshop/GIMP, until yesterday. Let me know what you think. Share your tips and tricks for new designers, please.

Everyone commenting and DMing me about it, is a bot. 😂 I mean, what did I expect?

I'm working on a secret project 🤫 looking for an artist for abstract images, who can paint with only 2 colors, to create art for a PCB. Anyone following me? Do you know one from VRChat? WIP image, final PCB will look different.

❗BOOK RELEASE❗ My dissertation "Life in Virtual Reality" has finally been released at transcript publishing and is now available FOR FREE! It condenses almost a decade of my research on #VRChat and Social VR into 337 pages. Have a look and please share! 📖👀

transcript-publishing.comLife in Virtual RealityAn ethnographic inquiry into the lifeworlds of long-term Social VR users, concerned with the phenomenological and sociological analysis of everyday life.

VRChat's Canny search is a joke. So I built one that isn't. All feedback posts indexed, filters that actually filter, full Lucene syntax for the spicy queries, and better previews of posts. Behaves more like a real ticket system search. vrchat-canny.hackebein.dev #VRChat

Over the years i collected many TB of video fottage, but barely post it anywhere. With #FacesOfVRChat i will show you around which amazing people i meet.
