This seems like a lot of hours 😅 A shockingly fun VR game

We’re all shouting off a mountain. Hoping to be heard above the noise of others yelling.

We're still the human race, right? Like all the same species with slightly different variants? Just checking for a friend.

I love when someone I look up to admits, "I have no idea what I'm doing." I'm like, ME TOOO!

listen all y'all it's a sabotage

I'm working on a new story about butt rumbling....the haptic kind. Stay tuned!

Apologies for being AFK. I promise there's a new haptic newsletter on the way. I've been really busy...with No Man's Sky LOL

"If you don't have anything good to say, go ahead and say it on the internet instead." 2025

You are accountable for what you say. Full stop. I think a lot of people have come to terms with this in real life, but seem to think it doesn't apply online.

Haptics is usually subtle — tiny motors, soft feedback, quiet UX layers. But this month’s All Things Haptics is full of motion. 🛞BMW adds tactile steering 💻 Lenovo swaps clicks for vibes 💦Waterjets simulate touch 🏎️ Sim racing adds seat feedback March edition: haptics.substack.com/p/march-vibe...

It’s snowing…. 🌨️ *cries

I'm excited to announce that I'm thrilled.

The guiding light of #haptics is also its Achilles' heel. Companies have spent years trying to make us ‘feel grass,’ but current consumer technology has fundamental limits.

I'm the kind of person that buys a kit to grow grass and then refuses to cut it because she saw something about how grass emits a signal notifying plants around it of danger. Can't have the rest of my plants thinking I'm a monster.. 😅

An interface that changes as you interact with it requires visual attention, which is a bold choice for a hands-free experience. This just makes sense.

Love, love, love my besties!

Fighting hate with hate isn’t the answer. Love. It pisses people off even more.

Loveeeeeeee

Take a minute and just think about something you love. Could be a person or a place or a thing. Just hang onto that for a sec.

Sometimes we forget that we’re just a bunch of meat sacks clinging to a rock, hurtling through an expanding universe at incomprehensible speeds. We don’t know how it started. We don’t know what’s fully out there. Take a breath, spaceman.

The Haptics Club interviews are a fun resource for anyone dipping their toe into the field/industry, great work by @ashleyhuffman.bsky.social & crew. thehapticsclub.com/episodes

VR, XR, AR, Spatial Computing—tech keeps getting renamed. But does it matter? From electronic brains to PDAs, history proves cool things survive, no matter the name. chicktech.medium.com/why-vr-will-...

Sometimes, I’m incredibly grateful for past Ashley, who takes screenshots to save future Ashley from making the same mistake twice.

Good luck everyone in the GTA right now… ❄️

When a system is broken, there are only so many ways to fix it. When a system stays broken because certain parties gain from its dysfunction, it becomes a barrier to progress—one that must be torn down to move forward.

2024 was an adventure. Some travels, including Hong Kong, Shenzhen and California. Many highs and lows. Cheers to making 2025 a year to remember!

I am enamored by my Honor V3 Fold phone and how I can cast to my TV to play games. What a time to be alive!! 🥳

Merry Christmas!

This is legit. Literally the reason why I refuse to play. Missing my friends too lol

It’s that time of year to watch my favorite Christmas movie on repeat youtu.be/-UbDXP7HGcI?...

Life is your story, and you hold the pen. Each decision, each effort, shapes the narrative. Push past the limits, and silence the doubts. Don’t stop. Keep searching for meaning, and keep trying. The only competition is the person you were yesterday. This is your story, so make it legendary.

What time zone am I even on?
