Someone made a Canny for this now: feedback.vrchat.com/udon/p/chang...

Why are all the AI features in messaging apps always completely useless nonsense like "write my message for me" and not something that would actually be somewhat useful like "automatically transcribe voice messages". I really hate these and would love a feature to turn them into text automatically.

So if the "-maxxing" suffix means optimizing an activity and the "-gooning" suffix means losing yourself in an activity, does that mean that recently, in VRChat, people are fishgooning? 🤔

When you're in a 'sucking the USA's dick' competition and your opponent is the EU 🥀 www.euractiv.com/news/exclusi...

So now that Discord is cutting ties with Persona after a month or so, is VRChat going to reconsider their partner for age verification as well or nah? fortune.com/2026/02/24/d...

I found some motivation to work on my asteroid world (Club Bennu) again. Remade basically every single material with a different shader to be able to add Light Volume support and also improved the lighting in some other ways. Pretty happy with how this turned out.

Tfw you still have some edge cases to fix in your procedural locomotion system #gamedev

I tried to create this effect in poiyomi where Emission Blinking and Center Out lined up. The problem is that "Blink Velocity" and "Center out Flow Speed" are on different timescales. Looking at the shader I found the formula: For speed x put "pi*x" in the blink velocity and "10*x" in the flow speed

I wanna add a pen system to a VRChat world, but there are like 20 different prefabs. Which one is the best one?

Just watched Cosmic Princess Kaguya, the Netflix movie that VRChat had a tie in with that broke the CCU a few days ago. I don't really know what to say 😅 The movie has crazy energy, is very pretty and fun, but also high octane anime nonsense. I can totally see why they did a tie in with VRChat.

Yoo, why did no one tell me Frieren season 2 started a few weeks ago? At least I got a five episode head-start now, before having to wait a full week between episodes :D

PCGamingWiki is down so I check archive.org only to see it's also down? Is the internet collapsing in real time or something? :D

I just randomly remembered the Dreadrith meltdown from several months ago and how he wanted to refund everyone who requested it. Did that ever actually happen? I never heard of a follow-up to that whole situation.

I was today years old when I learned you can't sync null as a string via Udon. It won't complain or throw an error or anything, but the remote side will always receive an empty string so all your != null checks will always be true 🙃

I didn't even have five "proper" jobs yet :D I like to stick around if I like it somewhere. - Software dev for a startup - Research assistant at an institute - Research assistant at a university chair - IT for a university institute - After school homework assistance I guess?

I tried using the new performance debug view in VRChat and I think it still needs some work. It could be amazing for performance debugging, but why are all the numbers in scientific notation? Maybe I'm just not bigbrain enough, but I find 1.0e2 or 3.9e6 way harder to read than 100 and 3,900,000.

Sometimes I think it'd be cool to use my Quest Pro as a standalone device to run something on it and then I do it and it's the worst fucking experience ever. Seriously, how is the software on the Quest still so incredibly buggy and shitty even after years of development???

Not sure if this idea is good or terrible, but after @captainduck.bsky.social recently posted about the IKEA downloader, I thought it'd be cool to make a huge random IKEA maze. Sadly the script broke, so I used the same tech to make a large office instead, where you can have a popup anywhere!

now that's what I call "usable internet" 🙃

time to get off the sinking ship

Ordering food before going grocery shopping so that it arrives shortly after you're back is so nice

Stolen from twitter for you mapmakers: There is a tampermonkey plugin that lets you download 3d furniture models from the Ikea website. github.com/apinanaivot/...

Looks like I really fucked my sleep schedule on my vacation last week. I'm actually getting tired at midnight and getting up at 8am well rested, wtf

I finished watching Andor yesterday, and it really is as good as everyone is saying. It actually makes the rest of the Star Wars franchise look really bad in comparison tbh. Watching Rogue One right afterwards (as the story intends) is extremely jarring.

I was feeling a bit under the weather the last couple of days and today decided to get some vitamin D pills for the first time. Took 2500 IE earlier and I feel honestly incredible. No idea how I slept on that all my life, but wow, definitely good to take them during winter.

one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it

Things are going great over at X, The Everything App

OMG I just saw that they announced a free Expedition 33 DLC at the Game Awards yesterday, and it's available already! Perfect excuse to finish my NG+ replay, which I kinds stopped halfway through.

hey you! yes you! thinking of building your own slime trackers? I've released a guide on how to build my Miro design online now! github.com/spironoo/mir... STL and full tutorial included

I just completed "Reactor" - Day 11 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/11 Holy crap, part 1 was very trivial but part 2 was really really hard for me. Had to get out the pen and paper for this one, but in the end I beat the damn graphs :D

I just completed "Factory" - Day 10 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/10 Part 1 was easy to brute force but part 2 gave me a reason to pull out the LP solver again. All in all a fun day!

I just completed "Movie Theater" - Day 9 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/9 Not proud about my super inefficient part 2, but at least it found the correct answer after like a minute :D

can't stop watching this clip of a tesla Optimus teleoperator taking his headset off before properly logging out the robot

I just completed "Playground" - Day 8 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/8 Finally time to get out the graph library :D

Thank you everyone who came to the POOLGANG Christmas event yesterday, and special thanks to all the DJs! If you liked the world, it's public now, so feel free to host your own christmas event or popup there: vrchat.com/home/world/w...

It's really crazy, we're wasting all this energy on the AI bubble and even in the year 2025 Alexa can't process a super simple command like "Turn off Room A and B". What the fuck.

I just completed "Trash Compactor" - Day 6 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/6 Got both on the first try this time. Feels good after having failed part 2 yesterday :D

Tonight is the night!

Wow, I just wanted to upgrade some packages in ALCOM but had a versioning problem with Gesture Manager not being compatible with the latest VRC SDK. Just as I was typing a message to the ALCOM dev about how to do a force install, a new version that worked became available. Very spooky :O

I just completed "Cafeteria" - Day 5 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode Sadly I failed on part 2 and looked up what the correct answer was before fixing my code :/ I just missed a stupid edge-case and after knowing I was off by 8 (??), I could fix it and then got the right answer.

I love/hate Linux so much dude...

Transparent PLA is cool

And then you look at the subreddit and see that your solution is way too complicated and could be simplified into a few lines. AoC never fails to make me feel like a total idiot, lol

I just completed "Lobby" - Day 3 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/3 Part 1 was trivial but part 2 was pretty tricky already. Took three attempts at an algorithm that even worked at all and then one wrong submission before I fixed the last bug.

No idea if anyone's actually using this script, but I just released a little 1.1.0 update that adds support for native OVR Toolkit notifications and a new sound effect, in case the default Windows notifications are too annoying. github.com/jangxx/openv...

I just completed "Gift Shop" - Day 2 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/2

Is anyone here participating in Advent of Code? I've been doing it since 2018, but since university I've never met someone else who does :D It's a really fun advent calendar of puzzles that you usually use programming to solve, and this year it's only 12 days instead of 25.

I just started watching my first yuri anime and it's surprisingly engaging? Could be the meme of aros really liking romantic stories or maybe there's more to it 🤔
