For anyone grumbling about the @valvesoftware.com Frame controllers using AA batteries, know that these do exist.

Seeing Joy Lyons talk about the modular design of the @valvesoftware.com Frame, it makes you think of the possibilities from bedroom 3d printing up to premium after-market options. These could provide not only a more fuller audio solution, but also a sturdy mount position for face tracking cameras.

Announcing: New @steampowered.com Hardware, coming in 2026: Steam Controller Steam Machine Steam Frame.  Watch our jazzy announcement video and wishlist now: steampowered.com/hardware

A new dynamic seat system is coming to Basis VR @basisvr.org! It includes support for any size avatars on any size seats, in any orientation, with the legs and spine at any angle. This uses the same data as in the @openmetaverse.bsky.social OMI_seat standard. PR: github.com/BasisVR/Basi...

Building on open technologies is crucial in ensuring that self-expression through our virtual identities are not reliant on proprietary VR platforms.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

Samsung Galaxy XR with Google's Android XR is available now in the US & South Korea for $1800, and its controllers are $250 extra. Read the full specs and details here:

It's great to see lilToon and Poiyomi Toon working in URP on Unity 6. They have both been updated to support Adaptive Probe Volumes within the past three months.

Valve's next headset has entered mass production and will ship this year, a Chinese analyst group claims, with an estimated run of 500,000 units in the first year: www.uploadvr.com/valves-next-...

So @basisvr.org now has functional Eye and Face Tracking courtesy of @just.hai-vr.dev which required only adding a single component to the Avatar in the Unity editor and hitting a button.

@naelstrof.bsky.social and I have our first stable version of our new multithreaded version of Jiggle Physics for Unity! I am excited to be able to offer this free and open source under the MIT license. If you use it to make something cool I'd love to see! #unity3d #indiedev #gamedev #opensource

After 34 hours of dancing in @vrchat.com to every @TheFitMarshall video, #Marshallthon2025 has concluded! 🎉 With $22,225.38 raised for The @TrevorProject, this is another record breaking total! 🥳 Thank you for the great memories! See you next time on the dance floor! #VRChat

A huge milestone for @resonite.com, keep on perservering @frooxius.bsky.social

Visiting the National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park was very cool! Learned about WW2 code breaking, saw the world’s first digital computer Colossus and remembered how old I was when I saw my first PC and mobile phone on display. 😅

I agree about activations, probably more insightful.

Experimenting streaming @vrcdn.live with github.com/VirtualBrigh... by @stopand.run in the @basisvr.org framework. Seems good!

545, that's how many we had at our load test today; there's still lots more to do. Basis is a VR game and social framework. Everything is open source; check it out at basisvr.org

This is what 545 concurrent users looks like in @basisvr.org

Can't beat waking up mid-morning, making breakfast, throwing open the blinds and windows to sunny blue skies, firing up the Trance playlist... then proceeding to install Unity 6000.1.15f1 and start migrating a project 😂

Yesterday I took a train and escaped to the countryside for the afternoon to enjoy food and festivities with friends and family!

Quick reminder about the @basisvr.org load test that is taking place tomorrow (Sun 3rd August 22:00 UTC+0) with the goal to break the previous record of 294 concurrent users! Further details here discord.com/events/12392... Please DM Dooly on Discord for Steam keys to the demo client.

38M! 🎉

Seeing numerous familiar faces on my timeline, from both sides of the pond, attending #developbrighton! Next time Gadget. 👀

The last two weeks have been amazing! Getting married to the love of my life @captainc.at, immersing ourselves in Minneapolis Pride and hitting the cycling routes around Lake Minnetonka ❤️

St Louis Park MN pregaming their July 4th celebrations on the evening of the 3rd! 👀

An amazing milestone for Resonite!

Completed the 20 mile Bala lake challenge today, which took us around the lake and up the Aran, absolutely exhausted but worth it 😌

Staying at a farmhouse in North Wales for a mate’s birthday celebration weekend! Great weather with lots of hiking, music, food and drinks planned.

Seeing first-hand the results of this play-test last night has given me a lot of hope for seeing how developers can utilise this framework to create unique events and spaces. Virtual clubs, music events or festivals that can push actual crowd numbers, in a manageable way, would be hugely immersive.

Broke our record again today at 294, ended up running out of computers to run basis clients on, plenty more to give. It was great seeing everyone. We run tests weekly; feel free to come along for the next one! basisvr.org discord.gg/v6ve6WT562

I updated my chest strap system 3D prints to support the redesigned @woojer.bsky.social Strap V3. You can also print attachments for VR trackers and batteries (see my other prints on Printables). www.printables.com/model/625721...

Live streaming @vrcdn.live over an ffmpeg video player was pretty awesome! So everyone that complained about instance sizes in VR being too small for events are going to join the CCU load test next weekend, right? 👀

We did a little DJ event during our normal test time. Next week, we are doing an official load test, and we need people to help break our previous record of 218! Please join us! discord.gg/v6ve6WT562 basisvr.org

Today is not a day for staying home. If you are in South East England, cancel your plans and get to London. feministgenderequality.network/urgent-parli...

Most of the 8 hours and a bit flight time over the Atlantic goes quickly when you’re levelling your professions.

I made it to the US (specifically Minneapolis) with no drama, the global entry phone app did all the heavy lifting and I looked like shit.

Another example of a fully self-contained bathroom, this time at Heathrow airport, but inside a gents only space. 🤔

The equality act ruling makes you consider how ridiculous some single sex spaces are. Toilets could be designed, with actual privacy and dignity in mind, for a start.

May I perhaps introduce you to the entire media campaign against trans people?

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

About time!
