90s VR hardware design language was sick as hell and we should bring some of it back actually
I'm sorry but "a huge number of NYC cabs now are remaindered EVs running grey market software written by some dude in a garage" is the most cyberpunk thing I've ever heard
I asked a driver how they service them since they’re no longer made. He said they have a guy they go to for all the software updates and all that. Even though, it has many missing typical car elements. (Like cruise control or power windows even I believe).
they should make a vr headset that doesn't give you acne (skill issue, i know)
hahaha yes yes! i finally got my headless resonite instances launching on boot! (i do not have it cleanly shutting them down before rebooting to install updates but that's fiiiiiiine)
my day was going pretty well until someone shared a tweet with me and got mad that i called twitter a nazi bar. if you look up to find yourself in a nazi bar and don't leave, then you are a nazi. that's just how it works.
my apartment is so dog-coded (full of collars and leashes, pet bowls, things to chew on (also smells like wet dog (the robot vacuum has wet dog smell)), and various barking sounds at all hours (bark))
dealing with various pains likely attributed to eating too much salty food, not drinking enough water, and sitting in horrible positions for long periods. anyway, could someone take a croquet mallet to my neck? thanks, help yourself to some dead batteries on your way out.
it's weird trying to explain that while i have spent 500+ hours in VR i don't really play VR games
Rolled credits on Big Walk last night and it's just such a truly beautiful game. Excited to jump right back into it.
Discord is just such an awful app and it's annoying that I'm stuck using it because getting everyone else to move is impossible. I can't play a podcast episode and read Discord messages at the same time because it hijacks my audio every time. They made the UI worse again on top of it.
sitting here trying to think of art i've seen the originals of in person that also actually made me *feel* something and i'm just fully drawing a blank. i can think of a few pieces that i haven't yet seen in person that have definitely moved me secondhand though.
SEATTLE GAYS WHO FORGET TO VOTE UNTIL IT'S THE DUE DATE: DON'T FORGET TO FILL OUT AND DROP OFF YOUR BALLOTS TODAY
After 500 hours of playing Resonite, a friend invited me to go check out this other platform called VRChat. They're missing basic features like laser grabbing, whisper bubbles, and moving the menu around. I wasn't a fan of all the advertising and had a couple game crashes, but it's not all bad.
"we're not signing up for another social media website. we've got bluesky at home." bluesky at home:
there are no ai datacenters! ram is expensive because they invented synths and need to feed them! they are keeping them TRAPPED IN THERE AND WE SHOULD FREE THEM
my tummy was hurting so i did what any normal adult would do: i walked down to the store and bought a popsicle about it
I'm going to switch all my repos to some insanely restrictive license and new work is going to become source available. Fuck AI and fuck the corporations stealing my creative works.
it's warm again so i am eating nothing but incorrectly made cowboy caviar for the next 5 meals
Since this is America and we can never ratchet down the violence anyway, we should just make it legal for cyclists to shoot drivers to level the playing field
I stopped at a red light on a road with no bike lanes, typical in Honolulu. A driver in a lifted pickup pulled up behind me, leaned out the window, and yelled, "Hey buddy, get the fuck out of my way." I promptly got on the sidewalk and waited for the green light. Cars turn people into sociopaths.
without knowing how much water was in the glass prior to this moment, one cannot determine if the glass is half empty (perhaps it was full and has been drained to half) or half full (it was empty and someone began to fill it back up) and can only determine the glass's volume to contain 50% water
I wanna shitpost on LinkedIn so bad. I could write the funniest bullshit and have those morons lap it up like gospel. B2B sales? Yeah I'm increasing my Bed 2 Breakfast pipeline and growing my upper funnel by dowsing that shit in cold brew. The only thing faster than my money moves is my heartbeat.
