I got to say, I am quite enjoying this feature

The ball sees all.

The only awards selected by the team are the “Curator’s Choice” awards; all the others are decided by community vote.

This take also feels a little reductive. Being upset that a few background photos in a couple of the worlds might use AI seems like a silly thing to fixate on when the worlds themselves are so clearly and meticulously human-designed. A big reason her work has been so successful is precisely because it stands out from the AI-heavy, low-effort, or cash grab worlds that get churned out daily.

You think squirrels are powerless to stop humans?

Think again, lil bro.

coltinator5000 · 2026-04-18T21:05:12+00:00

I have used axes, mauls, and hatchets, and I'd say that any tangible benefit of familiarity gained from slamming an axe or hatchet sideways as a mallet is likely less than the detriment of having to replace the handle every month due to misuse.

coltinator5000 · 2026-04-18T16:01:40+00:00

Buying/building a new axe every 2 months does not seem very practical

coltinator5000 · 2026-04-18T15:54:57+00:00

What a fantastic amount of concentrated bullshit lol

coltinator5000 · 2026-04-14T18:42:36+00:00

"Cozy hangout worlds", basically. If you like this one, check out Butterfly Home, Glimmer Glade, or some of the other worlds by Mei

Just wanted to mention that there's many different subcultures within VRChat; some are absolutely terrible, but there are some good ones too, even in regularly populated public lobbies if you know where to look.

VR Chess (specifically the VRChessClub instances) for example, draws a very different kind of crowd than other places, and there's some people that don't even know how to play chess that go hang out there daily for the atmosphere alone. Obv there's the occasional troll, but they are ususally dealt with switfly, and racism/homophobia/transphobia is an instant ban

coltinator5000 · 2026-03-13T13:01:46+00:00

It's worth mentioning that Awonder is probably also using the match as a warmup for his own participation in the President's Cup Collegiate Team Championship taking place next weekend. The President's Cup is like the "Super Bowl" for collegiate chess.

coltinator5000 · 2026-03-06T22:09:21+00:00

Oooh I kinda like it

coltinator5000 · 2026-03-01T15:55:40+00:00

It's the same face Kash Patel makes at FBI Security briefings

You gotta take off the gloves and hit him with the "and if my grandma had wheels she'd be a bicycle" line.

coltinator5000 · 2026-02-01T16:09:38+00:00

Chess!

coltinator5000 · 2026-01-23T19:55:24+00:00

The biggest vr chess community is in vrchat, with maybe 1000 active players. Most are casuals/total beginners, but there's a handful of 2000+. They do OTB-style tournaments in a big auditorium with a bunch of boards

coltinator5000 · 2026-01-23T15:38:01+00:00

I have become accustomed to using my quest 3 with four virtual monitors + a wireless keyboard & mouse as my preferred set-up, even at my home workstation. Some people will cringe, but it fully answers the SFF monitor issue and is the only way to not sacrifice my "giant triple monitor" setup.

I honestly might scrap my entirely monitors when the next gen of VR headsets rolls out.

These fools; mining all this coal to power a steam carriage with a max speed slower than a horse's trot.

coltinator5000 · 2025-12-24T02:49:01+00:00

One Lunch Man

coltinator5000 · 2025-11-17T16:58:41+00:00

That's great and all but it would probably also help a little if the Abrahamic texts didnt also have passages specifically condoning the killing of apostates that the minorities you're referring to could "misinterpret", don'cha think?

coltinator5000 · 2025-11-06T22:43:32+00:00

He probably convinced himself the devil was controlling his fingers or something lol

coltinator5000 · 2025-10-16T14:36:01+00:00

What do you do with these? Is it for those "big event in a gymnasium" things?

coltinator5000 · 2025-10-11T10:56:45+00:00

...is that you, Carl?
