HOLOLENS?? FOR UNDER 200$?!?!?!?

Hololens v1. And i alredy know they're useless nowadays. Intel Atom, no hand tracking, no functioning Unity SDK, and barely and homebrew.

Only if i found HL v2 for that price, mmmmm~ Until then, ill pass

Part time job as a janitor

is not as hard as i thought. 7 hour shift might sound short, and it is, but i get there and back home on feet, so, an hour and a half walking ontop. I actually work about 50% of the time, and somehow do more things than a legally hired janitor they have (they're on hiatus), and actually Knowing how much stuff Their janitor does, boy, i would gladly take Their place :p i even have enough time to work on original DS version of webfishing, while re-installing a pirated win 8.1 on their laptops (you know how much ppl in post-soviet contries Don't give a shee bt licenses) and getting some more from that. And that might be a second to forth (??????) time when i ever worked for a whole month, and surprisingly, time flies by. i thought that working as a dang Janitor would be deadly boring, but ehh, not really.

If we include money that i get from being a "disabled person", because having autism grants that thing (and that's a reason why i cannot be Hired full time on Any job), mmm, i get more than an average store worker. Which is still better than actually working at the store on my opinion, because nobody is yelling at me there, and i'm all alone by myself (70% of time).

And man, you underappreciate electric floor cleaners that do vacuuming and wiping at the same time, 10-20 minutes and im done for clearing floors for the rest of the day.

Music goes hard btw.

75 / 100 Genuinely would work some more if they'll need anyone again.

After reading Viveport's Publicly available Guidelines: 1) surprised that VRChat had ever existed there. 2) question every second app in viveport, because all of them break at least one of those QA guidelines. 3) would customizable lens distortion fix count as an effect that can cause a discomfort? 4) no dropping the f word? While microsoft's hololens from 2015 had a tech demo with a child nearly getting shot by a drunk father preinstalled. 5) shooter games exist?????? What do you mean no violence.

Let's Congrate that individual.

bloparz from the incoming bluesky vid bt webfishing on 3ds

FINALLY, a sane person calling an insane python as a horrible language.

So i got that Vive Focus Plus Controller for collection (not headset).

And as usual, i already have a breakdown and an opinion on it;

Google AI can suck it's pickle, it ain't got no IR LEDs, which is obvious, because who the hell would Combine tracking systems? Checked via cameras of Meta Quest 2 and Leap Motion. There's No IR LEDs.

As you might suggest by it's look, it tries too hard to be an original HTC Vive Controller, but it fails in that. Plastic somehow feels cheaper than Vive Focus' original controller, even tho Plus version were made for Business partners.

Touchpad is nearly identical to Finch controller's size (the Vive Focus OG controller's name), but it's material is worse, even comparing to Finch, where it's nearly identical to HTC Vive. But i like Plus' touchpad click more. It feels more rigid and assuring that Yes, i Did pressed it. But my resting thumb covers 85% of touchpad's area.

Trigger is interesting one, if you hold controller, you might think that it has analog input, but it doesn't. It feels like HTC Vive controller lost 1/3 of it's travel distance, with super muffled plasticky click in the end. And that Click is The only input trigger can provide. There's no pressure sensitivity, even tho mechanically it behaves like it should be here.

Grip button is a button, like on HTC Vive, but it feels like a button on Steamdeck, when you want to press it into a handle, but actually you have to push it into the side of a screen. Same here, instead of pressing it in a normal middle finger pose, the finger should press upwards.

Both system buttons click identically like System button on Meta Quest 2 or Top Hamburger button on HTC Vive.

Handle's plastic is identical to a bottom of DSi LL, while ring feels like it's hinge.

Status LED behaves identical to Finch.

Balance on this thing is crazy, no matter what, with batteries or w/o, it Will flip upside down, and the center of mass is at the touchpad.

And this one should be on the top, but No, you cannot pait it to Original Vive Focus. Unpairing a single Finch controller and pressing anything on Plus won't do anything. Even if you remove batteries. And "Other Controllers" button in system menu is a bust. It does nothing. And so far i haven't found any bluetooth settings in system menu. Probably would figure stuff out with ADB, but i'm not sure.

And to finish things up, i'm pretty sure, i'm the First person on the internet to post a teardown pics of this controller. But i ain't got enough courage to disassemble the ring, cuz clips on it are Crazy, and i broke 4 guitar picks on it.. and there's 3 super thin ribbon cables near insertion points.

Done done done, cya. Shoutout to a single Chinese user reading this and feeling super nostalgic, while having a huge smile on their face as i mention them.

A Calculator.

Remembered a time, when my Math home teacher (they also do Python lessons) had told me to make a calculator.

i really like Windows 8 fullscreen calculator, so i recreated it from memory in Windows Forms C#, and it even kinda worked. BUT i weren't able to make long equations (like; 4+1*7/1.2), because i didn't knew how to make them work. :/ Now i would simply make a List of actions and just go tru it, but Wow, that was only 2 years ago, and i cringe So very hard now that you can't imagine. i made an arduino serial port reader prior to that calculator app, and had 3 years of Unity's C#..

Today is the 5th time ever..

i used ref prefix. Hooray.

Probably should use it more often.

Bluetooth stuff

Wanted to figure out how to do Bluetooth related stuff for a While. Like, it started from a demo in a web browser, where it's possible to pair a Google Daydream VR Controller and look the 3D model rotate, check its battery, and button actions. Normally controller would just go to sleep from inactivity when connected and not used in Daydream App. So, that got me curious, if i can make something like this in WindowsForms (because i only know C#. Unity's C#, not normal one), i'll cream all over myself, because once i get that one working, ho-ho-ho, i already have a few thoughts of connecting incompatible VR controllers to incompatible VR headsets. Eg Vive Focus Plus controller with GearVR.. (within an app, or potentially making a background process, trying to intercept and translate data into VR-Server of a headset.. isn't that how viruses work tho?~) at least that's what i think. As of right now, i have No idea how Bluetooth works. And i know that i won't get positional tracking. Like, Pico neo 2 controllers require a magnet thing to determine position, or Focus Plus needs an ultrasonic sound source, but Still, they probably Should send all the other data, except physical position in that case. But if we go even further into that, im curious if i would be able to produce a sound that would make controller to determine position, same with Pico Neo 2 but with magnets.

i'm just super excited. Even if it won't really work out, knowing how to handle Bluetooth devices might come handy for ESP32 related junk at some point, cuz i wanted to make my own Flip VR controllers. HAVE YOU SEEN THE PRICE ON THOSE?!

Yeh, awesome sauce, drink pink milk. Fuq summer. i'll figure it out after finishing up an update for one homebrew ds project.

Thinking of past interactions with one individual

and uhh, not knowing what to say. How is it possible to be a system administrator, a 30yo+ guy with a huge beard, a straight furry, and be into baby furs wearing diapers.

Send an orbital strike upon that individual, how dare they be a straight furry.

YouTube distracts me too much 😩😩

Remember me yapping about S6? Good times. It's been dead with bloated battery and cracked screen on a shelf for 2 years.

Getting S6 for collection is not worth it. Even for Innovator Edition S6 GearVR. It overheats as a slut, dies within an hour of non-VR activities. And any VR related activity would be cut short by phone throttling in about 15 minutes, dropping framerates to what it feels at Max 30fps, and phone would disable chromatic aberration correction.

Now, Note 5 performs the same, lasts for 1.5 hours of Continuous VR, overheats at 20+ minutes.

So if you feel nostalgic with GearVR, don't like MetaGO (and love torturing yourself with 60hz at max with screen flicker on any well-lit scenes, with a lack of custom de-Metarized system ROMS) and simply want all of that As Cheap As Possible, just don't really bother yourself with authentic S6 kit or Note 4 for extra fancy points, and get Normal Note 5 with Specifically Black post 2016 GearVR (with/without controller, whatever. 2015-16 white version with D-Pad is facebook's attempt into violating your face, and anything before that is physically incompatible) and do little hack to pass on so called "Cockulus" and Facebook login. RepubliqueVR performs the same on Go, Note 5 and S8. Surprisingly, same thing about Minecraft. 3 chunks at max no matter what device.

What I achieved so far..

Tsk, you see, sometimes i look at what ive done on the internet (fudge real life) and think about things.

So far, i think im quite behind to my own expectations. Yeah, i make avis, and a huge Yeah on onr of my 3DS homebrew projects kinda booming on reddit (look, 1.5k upvotes and 600+dls on mediafire is still a huge number for Me), and if we cound my nexus account with my mods eh, meh +2k dls.. Practically these are still laughable numbers. Especially if we look from a viewpoint of an avg 10yo tiktoker with 67+ mil followers.

What i got on my mind of slightly increase that statistics by doing a few things

Picking up my abandoned MOCAP poroject, and post it on Somewhat functional form already (i had issues with interpolation and file sizes), so, ill just ignore both of those issues for now, polish other things up, and post Free alpha already. And any other version would also be free. Because Fudge Luxor. (not github tho, im too embarassed to show This project to world)

Update my OSC-Controller app's github repo and add layout customization (i think this one is important), AND add a brr... i hate to say it... A vRcHaTFuRy asset that would set things up automatically. (For self-admitted computer illiterates)

And i Might pick on YT since i got quite a few things to yap about, if you look at my older posts. i Absolutely love old VR tech, and i could yap about it for hours.

Probably also he-he, a funny beatsaber ranking numbers, tho hwo in their Right mind would brose trough peoples' profiles and even look for them on social networks?! im not a bandoot for ya'.

There's no logical end to this post, and my wieners are about to boil now. Ta-ta

Road to 2k Ranked BeatLeader

Since i somehow managed to pop into top 4k, i don't think top 2k would be too hard.. would it? eh??? I give myself a year and a half with all my laziness.

Finally, one individual is gone.

hopefully permanently, from the face of the earth.

Pepeile using Godot / Python

ain't got no aura, and hopelessly trying to aurafarm. And ontop of that i will personally decompile and resale MY application on Unity, since "your" game does not belong to "you", due to Wokedot's copyright and license, and how easy it is do decompile things and literally return them back into the project including code comments. Obfuscation? Oh-ooooh, you're probably violating god's number one rule of not making open source games and get 99.999% of geedauwt clankers against you on gadut related forums. Who in their right mind, and not under substances or gunpoint would use DwokeDOT_NET, i would've dismembered myself at the point of addressing a scene from a file location in the project, instead of using a convenient immutable ID for asset that Never-Ever changes. Also, what the hell the C# extension is? It's a half-baked .NET implementation by amatures, that doesn't work in most cases.

Why did Doki Doki Literature Club were made on Python? No idea. But that also was a thick mistake. Bad yolo aura.

Now, go and do Normal things a Normal Person (not a furry) would do, like uhh, umm, Use Microsoft Visual Studio 2026 on Windows 11 with the Bestest Microsoft 360 Copilot with C# Tollkit SDK plugin, and Unity with Their new Unity AI✨ in Unity 6.9_67_f9-11. If Unity is not your thing (your reeeel dummy, no swag, F), use Unreal Engine 5! Get an Amazing Microsoft Visual Studio 2026 on Windows 11 with the Bestest Microsoft 360 Copilot for C/C++ plugin pre-installed (never-ever use clang, we don't talk about that castrated junk, using it is like committing a world's cheapest te*st attack in IT), and use AI✨ Upscaling! UE5 would allow your artistic self to release itself, and performance doesn't matter! Just enable AI✨ Upscaled Frame Generation, and get cinematic motion!

wokedot is so lame btw that it ain't got no AI✨, so, investors, go find its Github and AI✨-enhance majority of it to make a better Engine with AI✨ for Modern use cases. Developer personally is probably a fraud, and still waiting for their Godot, that would never come.. pretty sure IRS would tho.
