[CW: Vague mentions of lewd apps] In which I scream at the universe and ask to speak to its manager. in c/chat@hexbear.net
[–] ComradeOohAah@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Thanks, I am familiar with buttplug.io and may use it in the future, but because I'm primarily focused on standalone VR I wanted to keep everything self contained for the time being. Also, and I didn't know this when I started buying the toys to experiment with, but many of the inexpensive aliexpress toys are like the one brand out there not supported by buttplug.io. So I feel like that kinda works in my favor, since they're basically stuck with no support but the main app (muse/lovespouse).

If you'll forgive me for ranting for a bit, I just gotta vent.

So for those of you that don't know me, Hi, I'm ComradeOOhAah, I'm the alt of a long time user and the aspiring Lewd VR developer that was enlisted by Xi Jinping personally in order to build a VR Milking Dungeon to brainwash chuds like Jordan Peterson. You can see plenty of posts about that project over in !gamedev@hexbear.net

That project is currently on hold as I was developing it for an adult toy called The Handy and I realized the userbase was rather small and that since I am hoping to turn this into a patreon thing to keep me from starving (where's my Xi Bucks? I don't know! China is collapsing any day now!) I should perhaps look towards a more accessible toy with a wider userbase.

So, for the past few months I've been working on an android media player (specifically the file browser) that will eventually be turned into a standalone VR Media Player that will eventually be turned into an experiment in creating point clouds from stereographic video for VR gloves to interact with and a VR Audio visualizer framework where I can experiment with synesthesia to play with people's arousal. (You probably didn't need all this info but I think I just laid out my definitive roadmap.)

The trick about this media player that I figured would get me some followers is that there are these files called FunScripts that sync rather expensive adults toys with movement on screen of adult videos. I've created a parser for those files and have adapted them to work with a large number of inexpensive vibrating toys sold on aliexpress. Everything is going great so far, took me the summer, but all that is done.

And then all progress came to a screeching halt. Before I release the first beta version I want to create a script that will check for updates. And a script for that will allow me to share news of other projects I'm working on, like the Milking Dungeon and all the other stuff I'm dreaming of creating. Plus I wanna figure out a way to show show Patreon supporters, that sort of stuff.

BUT I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW! I have spent weeks spinning my wheels messing around trying to visualize how best to present this information to the user. Do I create a whole new Information control panel where they can see different tabs (Updates, News, Supporters)? Should there be a new button on the side that only shows itself when there's an update available? All this shit going through my head for weeks putting me into a total doom spiral as I watch my bank account shrink and freak out that I'm never gonna release this thing.

And then today, while brushing my teeth, I had a flash of insight. It was perfect!

Are you ready for this gift of epic genius that the gods have bestowed upon me?

Before! (These are sfw)

After!

I'm not mad that it took me this long to realize I could adapt my current UI, but I hate that I can't remember the last time I was able to just create something without the worry of whether or not it was gonna make me money or not. I hate the constant feel of starvation looming overhead. I hate that everything around me is going to shit and I feel powerless to do anything. I hate that none of the leftist orgs around me are taking covid seriously. I hate that everyone around me is full in on the election spectacle. And I hate that I'm spending all this time beating myself up because I can't tell if I'm procrastinating or if I'm percolating. All I wanna do is make sex positive VR content for people to enjoy, not starve, and overthrow the bourgeoisie. I feel like that's a low bar! rage-cry

Lol, as I was writing this and thinking about how much I wanted Xi to invade and hold me and tell me everything is going to be okay, I heard a bunch of crows cawing outside and I looked out and saw a Bald Eagle being absolutely bodied in midair. There must be about 5 crows going after this one big mfer. They got some really good hits in too! Chased it away from the nearby pond. lmao. Crows together strong. xi-plz

Anyway, I'm done ranting. If you read this far thank you, I'm just very frustrated with existence and don't have anyone irl I can talk to about this stuff anymore.

After the revolution and we have FALGSC I propose hooking all the chuds up to pleasure cubes that they live in that's 24/7 babes, guns, boobies, beer and trump. in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

I'm still working on it. Geez. Have some patience.

Coup attempt in Bolivia fails as president urges people to mobilize against democracy threat in c/news@hexbear.net

Almost definitely US involvement. Even if it wasn't directly on our orders, we're paying and training the people instigating it.

Who here has actually used any GPT or Image generator models? in c/technology@hexbear.net
[–] ComradeOohAah@hexbear.net 5 points 4 months ago

I use it all the time. I spent pretty much all of yesterday afternoon using ChatGPT to implement a Reinforcement Learning Algorithm I only half understand into my CCP Milker VR App. [nsfw]A couple months ago, I used it to cludge together the start of a DLNA file browser for Unity. I find it incredibly useful for fleshing out ideas or getting me motivated. It's a lot easier to get working on a project I'm not confident on if I have something basic to start with rather than a blank page. Like, I've been going through my backlogs of Idea Lists that have sat untouched simply because they require too much research to figure out where to start. A quick query and I've got a springboard to jump off from. It's far from perfect, but absolutely helps me get more stuff done.

Welcome! Good luck! A thought: Because I do lewd stuff, I do tend to have to use metaphors and abstractions for my conversations, so I don't have to worry about sharing any private info. You may wish to do the same for privacy/security.

I've been having really good luck with using ChatGPT to push through my various walls. Oftentimes it will at least give me a rough idea of how to do things I'm too gun-shy on or, even if I don't like the answers it gives me, the act of writing out out my concerns/struggles/plans/etc helps me sort through my thoughts better and gets the ball rolling. I use it like a rubber ducky that answers back and gives some decent answers from time to time, basically.

communism-will-win

In the near future, my Virtual CCP Milking Farm will be highly successful and turn the tables on the Capitalist class as CHUDs cum to their senses and gain class consciousness. The next January 6th movement will instead see a red flag raised over the White House and the Capitalists and their loyal dogs marched off to the milking camps where they'll be reeducated into productive members of a healthy society.

20 years down the road, we'll have 100% literacy, 0% unhoused, and climate change will be conquered as our society, as part of a Land Back movement, does a rapid degrowth into a more sustainable world. The majority of people work 4 hour days, 4 days a week to maintain the basic infrastructures and then spend the rest of their time pursuing hobbies and building connections with their communities. Our media will be full of stories about people living in balance with nature and finding love while volunteering on ecological projects.

I will unfortunately have to put into the gulag as I will probably go mad with power when the milking camps give me access to far more opportunities to experiment on the human mind under orgasms than any person should be allowed. The papers will probably call me something like The Milking Mengele and I will serve out the rest of my lifetime segregated away in isolation so that I don't abuse my discoveries. I'll die happy, knowing that I contributed to the revolution. 07
