New scent announcement! Just made.....just now 😁 Beachparty Blues Hawaiian beach mimosas with rum, rain, sandalwood, cherry blossom, and rum Its refreshing and uplifting!

Drag'n Wash works in VR (no tracked controllers, just KBM or gamepad) with Rai Pai and UUVR. i had to make a couple tweaks to the config file to make it work well.

kojima knows xbox will drop him the instant the game is done, but he's still going with them because he's that passionate about making the game happen.

Hey, critters. The media's interested in furries again. As someone who's been in the fandom for well over two decades and has worked as a journalist, here's a quick guide to Dealing With The Press: If a journalist approaches you, SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUC

VR devs: true VR immersion means the most accurate body representation possible VR users (destined to later become devs): i need to see my snoot between my eyes, and control my tail with this BCI headband, or this just won't work.

octagonal gates on analog sticks need to come back. so many gamepads have minor directional offsets and you basically have to guess. this removes the guesswork.

in the cycle of common furry names where there's no less than 20 different furries with the same name, "orion" seems to be emerging as one of the leaders these days.

minor PSA for people adding #furality assets to their projects right now. you need to be on VRCSDK base and avatars version 3.10.3 or you'll get script errors.

I dont think i like the direction VRC is going in. The platform was founded and built on the idea of user created content. Seemingly in spite of this, both items and accessories have been added, with no sign of creators and users being able to add their own.

Yall. this is *operating systems.* Windows? obviously. Android? yup iOS? macOS? yes x2 chromeOS? yup. oh but it gets worse. xbox? nintendo? playstation? SteamOS? yes, yes, yes, and yes. if this passes, nearly every electronic device in your life will require invasion of privacy from minute one.

i have learned that subreddit moderators are litteral children who prefer to "enjoy the freedoms of simply removing posts they disagree with" instead of actually moderating.

oh this wasnt political or anything, it was about whether or not the 8bitdo xbox phone clip fits correctly and firmly on the elite series 2. (it does. i use it frequently.)

a bunch of "um ackshually" people are gonna step up to defend trendAI, but its still only one source. no second source has confirmed it. literally dont @ me until a second source steps up.

todays telegram security scare was made up by an AI. the only source of it is TrendAI. there is no other group or individual that has confirmed it. can we please stop fearmongering before a problem is even real?

so youre telling me that they put brain cells into a petri dish, hooked it up to a purgatory machine, and the first place they sent it was LITERALLY HELL?

maybe if microsoft wasnt making ai slop we wouldnt have to call it what it is. Microslop it is, and microslop it will continue to be, until it doesnt exist.

@beanyvr.bsky.social loving the new 18 holes, noticed some mild geometry quirks. only one that affected gameplay, the rest were visual only. some holes on the new course arent perfectly level. only hole 3 was bad enough to cause issues, tho. used a geometry shader that emphases angles to visualize.

the latest discord scam is... pretending to be discord, asking you for the same info discord is going to ask you for when you age verify. yikes.

Shockingly easy to make expressions for this little guy, already easily defined without moving the cheekbones or mouth. i'm kind of surprised there's no facial rigging or expression blendshapes. - though in the game files it is still labeled as WIP. #rem #deadlock

hey, so i want to have a discussion with some local (northeast US) indie gamedev furries. i want toss around the idea of dedicated convention programming to allow indie devs to showcase their titles. plz reach out, my telegram is the same name as here.

anyone got a light gaming miniPC they'd be willing to trade for a full raspberry pi 5 8gb ram kit with 45w power supply, Poe+m.2hat, 512gb m.2SSD, build in sound+speaker board, and a couple mini/micro hdmi adapters?

this! the mona lisa has been done. we dont need another pic of an OC smiling slightly and looking at the viewer. give them personality, a situation, a setting, a universe.

I've been working on an essay about The Struggles of TTRPG Outreach and Fandom but I think this tumblr post just captured the whole sentiment im like 100 words.

i hate vrchat worlds that are games where movement speed is an extremely important factor in the gameplay and balance and then they dont make strafe speed and run speed the same. by default, these values are different, and thats a problem for games.

If you've been easing up on pressuring these freaks or haven't cared yet because you're not a visual novel dev getting erased from itch, Please observe how ridiculous "fantasy (cat ears, fairies, ETC)" is like putting "etc" after fantasy is WILD

Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

mobile gamepad enjoying friends: avoid the backbone. it has critical issues in its design and engineering. ive replaced the internal ribbon cable twice now after mere months. gamesir x2s or x5 lite seem superior.
