LOL
69/420 I am very original and funny
hehe weed
you know how bunny is sometimes written as bnuuy in memes, now introducing, fnuuy

Lion VS Bear, which would win?
lion
Thank you, having a debate with my brother and he's saying bear
nah
bears are similar to humans, they know how to survive, they don't attack anything unless they feel its threatening to their turf
lions are just straight up hunters and will kill you thick and through
I think it'll be a good fight tho
yes it will
But a lion will easily win
bears are just as fragile as humans
I mean, bears will devour bee hives and just shrug off all the bee stings on their face. Humans don't usually do that.
thats...an interesting take.
trust me, if you give a bear the same human rights, they will eventually evolve and understand how the world works
only difference is they have animal instincts and a bit of power to them in terms of strength and stamina
but because they live in the wild, they only learn how to survive and protect their younglings as any parents would
I very emphatically do not trust you on these points lol
those bears in the zoo are unfortunate and was captured for display, its basically a prison but for animals
Nah zoo's are just publicly owned renting in a HAO heavy area for animals
if you enter a bears territory, they will run up to you aggressively and chase you down, but if you stood still and face up to them, they will turn away because they respect you
Or whats the word again for those areas where your neighboars can vote on whacky laws
but regardless, bears do not just kill you randomly and run off like a hit-and-run, they only kill if needed to protect something
grizzly's however are a different story i think
Okay I stopped listening here, honestly
you know that, thats the basic tip for hunters right
Imagine not flexing on a giant animal to make it go away
We went from "difference of opinion" to "you're getting someone killed with this terrible advice"
hm...i'm sorry if you're taking things the wrong way 
Standing up to a grizzly is colossally stupid to do.
but i didn't say grizzly, i said bears
I'm not taking it any way. Standing up to a gigantic murder machine is suicide.
grizzly bears are a different story
there are different versions of bears
or types i should say
i was vaguely educated on multiple types of bears in school, that much i know.
Wasnt the advice for bears to just gtfo

Most of what you said could apply fairly to black bears. It would not keep anyone alive near grizzlies.
yes thats what i meant, but probably didn't imply it correctly
probably doesnt help that there's piles of contradictory info out there about bears in general
pretty sure im half wrong about some of it, most of us are lol

Love how this started because I asked if a bear could beat a lion
Mostly what I took issue with was the idea that bears are fragile. They're so very not.
Isn't it easier to tweak windows, after the installation
probably not
Bears are actually tanks
Ive been thinking at this rate i might as well
mmm..bear spray
I just don’t know how or what to do besides O&O shutup
ur mum is a bear
gotem
Mama bear
yea idk wtf is up with bears. like black bears, cant play dead or theyll just eat you. grizzles you can but not before they make contact or else they just get curious and start messing with you anyway XD
foon's right about ground-standing, been looking into it
yeah they all have different instincts and rules i guess
got me there, ngl
ye ye
idk bears are just terrifying and idk why anyone would ever get near one lol
me neither
its mostly adviced to hunters that regularly goes for hunting season in the woods
I was walking in a park once and ran into a black bear with three cubs. My solution was to freeze and very slowly back away.
Running may have set off the bear's prey chasing instincts, and if I had stayed where I was or approached, the bear might have attacked me to protect her cubs. So calmly backing away while keeping my eyes on the bears was the logical course of action.
With polar bears it's different, as they will actively hunt humans. If you're going into the Alaskan wilderness, you pretty much have to carry a firearm in case you need to scare off (or, if worst comes to worst, shoot) a bear.
sounds about right
balls
Spilled my drink all over all my wired behind my desk 🙃
oh god!
Managed to clean it up, think it's good now. Hopefully
I shut off everything and unplugged everything as fast as I could. Managed to dry everything off and everything seems to be working for now
Hopefully nothing bad happens
explodes
reverts into a zygote cutely
I've ran into a few black bears while night hiking over the years. Most tend to be bìtches and are easily frightened. They'll just go up a tree and sit there till I go by.
I'm more worried about cougars tbh. They'll literally stalk you for miles looking for an opening to mess with you. Fkn cats.
I wouldn't ever want to mess with a grizzly... A shot from my rifle would drop a cougar or scare it off. Same for a black bear. But a grizzly would just be pissed off.
Is there an official meetup for Anime Expo this year?
Meetup for? 
cougars are insidious shits
hanging out with other vrchat users
Then it's not really #general-media is it? 
polar bears are terrifying
Yeah
If you meet one with the opposit charge then you have, they'll charge right at you

Not bad 
Careless whisper go go go
Pretty good tbh
I've heard that somewhere, not sure where tho. Probably on some instagram reel or something
If anyone gets offended when you deny an offer or invitation then they are assholes. This also applies to your friends and best friends.
Fooni figured out the solution to being a genuine nice person. No means no. Be nice for the sake of being nice, if you get a no for an answer. Keep being nice and dont just turn into a dick towards em
if you are the latter. Have fun on r/niceguys

However I'm a dick
if its american or british... I swear bro
I wish the rest of the world would be more like Japan
Shame I don't use Spotify
Aka keep wearing mask outside because if you dont people will look weird at you so you decide to wear a mask.
thats Japan at this point
Can confirm having covid sucks
Can confirm never had covid
the solution to everything is time travel
Did you know that some people who have covid are allowed to travel on planes? crazy
And put in a hotel for free
hotels are also covid infected
Yes but they get free hotel room at airport till covid gone
i'm also immune to covid, because its been 2 years straight and i haven't gotten any. Plus no booster shots.
not even the first shot
and also i order quite alot of stuff from amazon, i was guaranteed that at least some of my shipments are infected, but i never got any
I got 2 shots but spent most of covid time never getting it anyway just got it for futures
I wish I bought stocks man
Ofc you can get it through your eyes
Indeed
Well anything health related online is fucked
Get immediate medical attention you might die after 3 days

well this chat's a real downer today. back later i guess lmao
I only got covid because my little brother got it from someone in his school. Went long af being invincible to it and he ruined it
I was dropping a not-so-subtle hint that all the doomer talk is probably not conducive to a fun chat experience
Yes I prefer food talk

It's even funnier when people ignore gigantic fucking hints.
Dont worry hes a booster
Couldnt give a shit.
No one comes to game servers to get depressed about doomer theories lol

This is a star wars channel now

I bought $400 headphones to see how much better they really are than cheap ones. The quality difference is insane.

I also learned that if an item is cheaper on their website, walmart will reduce the price of the in store item to match if there is a difference. You need to point it out though.
Yeah. Some companies like that will also price match if it's on a competitor's website for cheaper
The fuck is that
Bose 700 are normally almost 400 but were on sale for about 329. Love them so far.
its from spore
its from spore
It's from a nightmare
Why does it have human like eyes and lips
Yeah I'd never want to see that thing
finally got that achievement not long ago too tbh
tbf Spore is a pretty old game
because i know youre not talking about VRC in offtopic
the one channel on the whole server not for VRChat
Nice ^^
I haven't used the bose 700 yet. I hear good things from others though
cool cloud outside :)
The noise cancelling is quite good on them. Completely drowns out an air conditioner.
Nice. Glad you like them ^^
i was omnivore so i used the freaking flock backup call and leaded it to my nest so me my whole nest and backup were eating it
thats pretty much the strat yea. bonus points if youve got ranged attacks.
putting aside Rule 11 for a minute...
Maybe you should look at it. 🙂
Not with VRC, no. 😄
Flagrantly ignored every attempt to guide you towards a workable solution? 😛
#vrchat-support has instructions for getting official support for the game.
also i did have spit so yeah give me bonus points
i had spit so when i died i could snipe the pear to lure him back over to fight my whole army again
lol garfield
Dude. When I launch my fkn game it just says "Sache broke me" wtf. Also, I'm not in vrc before you go "not a vrc channel" I'm actually in ur mom.
well that's a "you" problem bruh, that bitch be clingy and neurotic 😏
I'm chilling in a park with my doggo. This dude just walked by with a giant boom box on his shoulder playing classical music loud AF with a literal cat on his head, just chilling.

I miss my ex again 
I’m going. Everyday I’m going. Progress is being made. But heartache remains
Especially now. All my friends are either gone or hanging by a thread. I’m working on what’s next for me and it’s a big deal.
Way she goes boys
many ribs were had today
Thats nice
Eat them
:monkas:
Devour the ribs till they are no more
Again?
i don't think you can eat the ribs after already eating them
sanitarily anyway
Is it like that episode in spongebob where king neptune barfs up the krabby patty to eat it again?
it's like how koala babies ea-
GAH dont remind me-
They also are violent
fricking shit stupid people don't know how to shut up about movie spoilers and i got spoiled

What's animal did you harvest them from?
well i didnt harvest them personally

Ah, black market organ harvesting, order your stuff ready to go
I fkn love ribs tho. Been a while since I had good ones tho ...

I’ve played more games in the cloud than on a dedicated PC or console since late 2019. During this time, I’ve traded in the common limitations of native gaming for an untethered, more versatile experience. These are the six reasons I prefer cloud gaming platforms like NVIDIA’s GeForce NOW over PCs and consoles.
If your PC has the power to handle your favorite games, go for it.
Cloud gaming is a nonsense and it'll propably dissapear soon or later
Looks fine to me
About it vanishing soon...
Not to mention OnLive was made in 2003. So, cloud gaming has been around for quite a while.
My fear is that it might not be true. Back in 2010's, mobile phone games are not that big compared to today. Look at today, even Blizzard, a PC game developer releases a mobile game only Diablo Immortal with micro transactions. Perhaps in the future, all games are cloud, none are local anymore.
@nimble apex guess what?
Main issue is the stability of people's connection method and sometimes even having fiber networking through Ethernet still ran into game play issues due to slow connection even though I was getting 800mbps down and 500mbps up
1GIMME

Like i said, i couldn't get it done this weekend 
then what is it
Suni what are you doing rn
Laying down in bed
Suni and being lazy whats new 
Hey, i had nightshift okay?

I need some isopropyl alcohol to clean some of my old stuff

I beg you bro
Yes, although i hate it... i can clean stuff

I'm sorry "bro" you just need to wait xD
you better get on some random VC to stream it
That means i have to have some kind of webcam... That can potentially show my ugly face... No thanks
wear a mask
a bandana, sunglasses and a cap ya know?
I doubt youre that ugly 
Super ugly yes
Nuh uh
I'll need to make some holes in a cardboard box to put over my head
Suni you'll look just fine Your face wont be the focus anyway
Anyhow... You need to wait for it, I'll promise to make pictures
Mods would probably hate my spamming pictures tho
So if i get banned it's both of your fault
what do I have to do with this 


You'll be fine, Im begging for pictures bro
pc being built > swimsuits
Hey is it worth getting lens protectors or halo protectors? (quest 2) Just asking since I don't wanna waste my money but I also don't want to damage my head set/controllers
Woah.. you won't see me doing swimsuit pictures other than in a social VR platform
well I havent ever seen it
I dont trust this creature

What u looking at?
suuuure
I'll beat you up
Maybe I'm already there
I know what cars you have and none of the 2 are in the parking lot
I'm not that dumb... maybe i parked outside of view
uhuh
Suni is very much a tsundere.
Maybe a little bit 
a little?
Maybe not at all
I am going to pat your cats
You're a lying bastard
i wish next week would've come by already so i can watch dr. strange 2
same Fooni same
I wanted to see it in cinemas but Ive been busy and live too far away so Disney+ it is
But I swear to god Im gonna watch Jurassic World in cinema on the full best shit they got
you still have to sub though
Ive been subbin to disney+ since release
yeah and then theres gonna be waiting for the new jurassic world too
yahhh
I'm straight but I love to look at girls
I saw the last one in cinema but it wasnt big great quality it was just basic cinema
but I wanna see that new one in the best 2D Supreme shit they got
bc its not in 3D at the place I go to which is shocking
2d supreme?
Best giant room with the best sound and chairs, but its not 3D or 4D
yes 2D supreme, basically best comfort and best quality
oh
not just some basic 2D screen in a room
2d have always been superior
I'm gonna to catnap yours
amen
the only subscription I have is amazon prime for videos
but foons if you saw our cinema man its epic
also suni, you wouldnt 
lol don

Ill steal your 3090
suni is a child face
You can have the box

what? why

Do you know how good that shit is?
i'm used to seeing chairs red
those chairs are way more comfy
yeah but more comfy = sleepy
then you cant have my cats
bruh... Fooni is paying more attention to the mother fucking chairs in a dark room than the actual movie
it would be great if theres a chair that can halt your pee bladder
what
just go to a toilet before the movie and you wont have to leave during it
it aint that deep
well no i tried that once and i had to go mid movie a few times(its cuz i drank too much soda during movie)
I cant find the other amazing one that I always go to
you sound like a small creature
plus movies are like fricking 2 hours 40 minutes now these days tops
because i am small...
tiny fooner
so yeah movies are insanely long these days

they 2 hours-
it used to be 1 hour 30 minutes maximum
Fooni how often do you use a bathroom during VR
amorbius
twice
during hours?
yes
one hour twice

well i have like water bottles next to me so i hydrate alot, is that bad?
(not if i order a large drink)
I would probably fall asleep in them
oh yeah you guys are americans you order plastic cups with soda...
Well in our cinemas you literally just buy the same type of bottles as in stores
LOL
you actually dont. and im a cinema dweeb If I saw a person sleepin next to me I will pinch em
so your arm is dying
thats kind of a rip off then if you buy same bottles
no bc it means we can just bring bottles bought from stores to the cinema theres no law on that
americans illegal to bring snacks, well too bad for you
well not here. you bring what you want
How is my arm dying?
aka small soda is good enough for Fooni. not some giant mcdonalds cup
different countries different laws
if someones sleeping = arm pinched every sleeper time
Why would my arm being pinched?
bc you'd fuckin sleep in those chairs
.... I ... I don't really see how that makes my arm being pinched.... But sure
suni is big brain.

I cant un mute in VRChat I press v [unmute key] but nothing happens anymore
Can you please explain to me what "Off Topic" in a VRChat discord server would mean?
oh is that why Indiana Jones is in fortnite? its cuz of a new movie?
ye it was announced ill show ya it
image from the new movie. hes back bro
not really a indiana jones person sadly, i'm more of a Lara Croft
someone beat this woman
Indiana jones is the birth of lara croft and uncharted shits smh >:I
just watch Indiana Jones Last Crusade. Great movie, fav one
With his dad tryna find A Cup against germans

Fooni you're watching that new movie if you like it or not.
no money 
what... arent you like a VR weeb
no?

do ya like cookin
Eh! So so
I'm a guy so I can't cook worth shit.
But when I do get it right, boi, do I ever!
I kind of envy you.
Every time I try to cook something as simple as pancakes I end up burning it
cooking is ez mode
bruh
most of it is just wait a certain time or wait for something to change color
and then you just look at the color
I just found the most beautiful Philly Cheesesteak ive ever seen
Philly cheese steak is one of my favorite things
not just about color. make a burger? add that amazing Grill Spice
butter the pan, add some spice to the pan mixes with the butter. place that meaty boy on top, add more spice on top of the burger and bam just let all that juice get inside that burger
I have this stuff called liquid smoke that I sometimes put on my burgers.
Burgers is one of the only things I can cook properly 🤣
and fucking done. 5-10 minutes on the pan and the burger is done
Interesting
my goal rn is the best fuckin English breakfast, apple pie and pizza from scratch
😆
You sound like you have a passion for cooking

i dont I just like food
Fair enough
see. Fooni is a food lover I can tell
cook paimon while you're at it
my one goal in life however. a Wife that can make the most delicious sandwiches
Anybody have any hobbies?
I myself am an artist and an animator.
That's what I do mostly in my free time.
Even had an animation judged by Michael Patterson.
I think he was the guy who animated the "take on me" video from the '80s
Anyways got some money from him for coming in third place.
And my animation featured on cheddar TV.
Definitely highlight of my life
i like to mess with 3d models
its all in my bio
I find Fooni to be interesting as a genshin addict. and Suni too as a Swimsuit addict
I want to get into making a VR world or one of those VR animations at some point.
I'm still pretty new to the whole thing so there's a lot I've got to learn
The latter is understandable..😳
the fuck
What!!?

Fooni kill em

I'm an artist, coder and streamer
I also make YouTube videos sometimes I guess
Greetings beautiful ppl
Hello
proceeds to listen to Marilyn Mansons - Beautiful people
that's the fun part
9 is nothing
I have a 20gb clothes folder for my booth models ive collected over time 
those are triple a games



I think even metal gear rising was like 40gb
try GTA + seao f thieves
Oh yeah forza horizon 5 was like 99gb
crazy
ESO 112gb alone
Fooni on a laptop:
laptops are good for light college work and just every day use
maybe
Can it run Crysis VR Chat?
I'm using one every week for taking notes, doing excel stuff, light games like trackmania and it works flawlessly
Most games I've got are like 20 gbs or something 💀
Only laptops I allow is razer bc they actually make good ones compared to other people
I dont want a 2 hour battery laptop
cod mw be like
razer sucks wit gaming laptops though
10 gb update just to add a new character and a weapon nerf/buff 💀
Gaming laptops suck in general
biggest one I had was like 50GB iirc
Are you mad?
Laptops are better for school/work stuff I guess, if you want to game the best thing to get is a console/pc
Their gaming laptops are best for really everything
x to doubt
razer used to be good actually, but now they suck
I've seen benchmarks and real life tests and they are not any better than msi or asus for example
Nah not really. Viper Ultimate is good. Huntsman keyboard is good. Their mousepad idk the name is very very good
Headphones is mid to good. Laptops are decently good and better than most at the price
ew no their headphones are even worse
Nari and Kraken would like to fight
Are hyperx head sets good?
And their blackshark
Decent enough. They work
hyperx are way better, even turtle beaches are better
I got one rn and it is quite exquisite, the mic sucks ass but the sound is really good
Bro Kraken X is great. Nari Ultimate is great
krakens are just bass and no treble what are you on about
Blackshark is amazing
Probs the reason why I got a hyperx quadcast
You have headphone settings mate
I have akg k361 and on the same settings it's a day and night compared to krakens
Pea there are different krakens
gaming most of the times means bass
Kraken x is a solid headset for mobile and pc. Wireless and great for travel n comfort at a good cheap price. The microphone is even top tier for a headphone!
because that's what gamers are always about
tbf HiHi does so too often
Conversation switched from game gb stuff to gaming laptops and then to head sets lmao
I mean what do you want from explosions
Cus average people like overpresent bass
What do you all think of Varmillo keyboards? They look pretty cool but I've never tried one
Dunno man
I like the Razer Huntsman and the Corsair k100
Ofc also TKL keyboards as well but dunno which yet
Huntsman is pretty good from what my friend told me
If I don't have an earthquake on my head with a magnitude of 9.8 whenever I listen to a song I don't want the headset
Yeah they are. Im on the line between the k100 and huntsman elite or something. Top tier keyboards very similar
Thats my headset in a nutshell
we get these kinds of conversations now and then
I'm currently using a steelseries keyboard (apex 5) and damn it is on life support rn, may switch to a varmillo keyboard or something else soon
i mean to each their own
Ah ok
If I turn on Bass mode on my headphones. the entire headset fuckin shakes like crazy it tickles
its your money, you do you
If the head set doesn't instantly give me ear damage it's bad smh
Well nobody has said anything wrong with the other razer shit I mentioned only the headset soooo
Take out headset and you got perfect keyboard, Mousepad and mouse
razer headset have terrible mic, according to reviews and comments
the only best thing razer has right now are the mouses and keyboard
I have a good head set and mic, just gotta get a good keyboard and mouse lol, the apex 5 was good but now it is on life support and my mouse that costs 5 euros is acting goofy
Kraken X is amazing. And their siren x microphones are Top tier
Like the best sound quality for such low prices
akg k371 vs kraken ultimate. You can clearly see the brought up bass and the fallback the lower freq we go
and the dip at high-mid
Not that big difference
Ngl
The curves are majorly different
Naaaah
kraken x
you gotta be joking Akito
But again the only thing hes fighting is the damn headphones of razer what about the other shait
You either troll or don't know anything audio.
Awesome deal
Troll bc hes only talking about headset part of razer
Ikr
you're the one saying they are amazing and I'm telling you how crappy they are compared to cheaper non-gaming headphones
Again. Kraken X is a solid great headset for its Price. 50 bux ish and its wireless, Top tier microphone, Great for public use on phone.
Damnit
I always mention for the price.
But they also mention "compared to cheaper non-gaming headphones"

You telling me wireless long lasting headphones at low price exist that are better than kraken x
Or something like the blackshark lineup
@prisma oyster people also make and sell avatars for vrchat, you do know that, yes?
Yeah they do, but they're not thrown in people's face as a requirement. People can just as easily find these same avatars as free public ones
🤣
It's also not part of VRC, it's entirely seperate
This is NOT the channel to talk about VRChat related stuff
Please use the appropriate channels.
The fact that it's a massprod. market means that avatars and clothing for them are sold cheaply, comparing to realworld counterparts. you can build a banging looking avatar, in sl, for as little as 12$
@worldly vessel this is a cross conversation between sl and vrc differences
Im about too make the deal of the sentry
If you pay me your soul I will let your crush sit on you face crush you in-between there thighs
And.....
Joke's on you, I have no crush
in fact because skeleton is standardized - there is a whole new subsection of users which manage to build in-world from the market pieces - avatar builders.
Just because it exists doesn't mean it's good
Which is still VRChat related
which makes it a VRChat-related convo
To be fair, youd also yell at them for talking about SL in the VRc channels so
@worldly vessel i have a sneaking suspicion if i'll move it to general mods gonna yell at me as well
The relation and conversation / comparrison of this is kinda the definition of talking about something in VRChat relation, no?

I guess but it's also diving into the topic of monitezation and incentivized digital asset creation
Since this is off-topic, the perfect time to dive more into the SL part and how it absolutely sucks in that regard. 
And it would still not be the first time you asked someone to move for it not being fully just VRC relating
Monetization, digital assets and ect are all non VRC exclusive
xD
If by sucks you mean it's absolutely amazing with how it's built - sure.
SL is a nightmare of low efford content dumping to fullfill peoples fetishes.
(You mean Second Life, right?)
Yes
Yeah, it's absolutely horrible then.
and no, you are wrong. low effort only exists on normie sims
go around for a bit to more fandom-driven sims and there is a whole assortment of decent creations
SL has the exact same social related problems VRC has
Content dumps and iffy topiced content are both rampent
The more closer to the 'power users' you get the less both apply
Sure, secondlife has outdated graphical engine which still has single-threaded object queries. But the inworld inventory and ability to build in-world hot on the spot from the avatar up to location put it above and beyond vrchat.
Because - as mentioned above- you get a subsection of users which might not necessary know how to 3d model or use unity for construction and uploads - but they know the tools inworld and manage to build decent stuff like that.
So the people who are too lazy to learn actual 3D tools, got it.
The content looks / performs as expected by that tho.
Well they also cater to different people for a reason-- Building anything ingame while in VR is a nightmare
VR UI's are plain shit and i have yet to find a menu that id say is the go to example on VR UI designs
Gonna agree there. vrc ui feels like blender 2.7 ui. it is better than blender 2.3 but my god. my god.
I have yet to see a better social game UI than VRC's
Secondlife.
Fairly sure he was talking about VR
Mostly, but still applies to many desktop games too
As its kinda whack to compare UI's cross consoles
vrchat when the uhh uhh three different settings menus in three different types of menus all with their own different options in three different styles of menu
Google an image of SL's UI. It literally looks like a complicated Garry's Mod menu system
That Habbo hotel UI 🔥
Scammo Hotel 
🔥
the most comprehensible mmorpg user interface
That's Final Fantasy XIV and a UI of someone who made it that bullshit.
yea ik lol
it goes hard
(confused screaming)
If you want a good moba UI get something like BDO had
Sometimes programmers are just sick of the boolcrap
Fairly clean but easy enough to get all that number info
Let me put it that way. VR UIs are lackluster because - it's very tough to build for something you both cannot touch and also cannot have fixated in space. You need a haptic suit to build it like a car dashboard. so that's out of the window. but you can't just do windows and menus because they are not fixated and your controller is constantly has 3d position, not something you can rest the hand on
Something something Pokerstar VR and RecRoom both got great feedbacks in there menu's
Oh yeah Rec Room's UI is great too
If i had to pick two social UI's for VR games its those two by leaps and bounds
But they are simple for a reason and wont work in most games
for the longest time their ui was a mixmash of the old ui style pages and new ui style pages
it was ugly
new ui looks good but it felt so out of place with the old ui menus being there as well
I prefer the old UI personally
i can see why they updated it
not much more room for stuff unless you rebuild it from scratch
(hey thats what vrchat did as well(lol))
The current VRC ui also aint that bad- Its like mid
new quick menu is great but you click on something and it opens the current (old style) main menu and its just
ugh
Roller coaster tycoon 2 Menu in VRC 🔥
at least they updated the main menu to have the new colors and stuff otherwise it'd be twice as ugly
Peak UI design 🔥
Back to the topic. @prisma oyster your repulsion for the monetization of user content is comical. People don't exist immortally. people need to eat, and pay utilities. having an ability to sell to the masses, on the cheap, creates income avenues, especially for the people who cannot work irl job due to health issues.
i mentioned above that i know several users which make living off of sl. To example lilleth - she had a bad carcrash 8 years ago and now is not very mobile, so her career went to shit. she learned the tools and started making clothing on sl.
Yeah and most people go to a real job and do real work to have the ability to eat. Not stealing content from others and selling it for profit
You realize there are a shit ton of people who live purely on selling VRC models right?
I
@prisma oyster Even more bullshit from the basement dweller. You do realize you just accused honest creators of original content of theft?
3d modelling as a job is neat
And that content isn't in most cases platform locked
which is even better
^^^ what helps boost sales even more
Basement dweller? Lol I work professionally with Unity and VR game development
You don't sound like it. at all.
Welp I don't know what to tell you then =P
nah nah nah, a certain type of person must sound and type a certain way else you're lying and wrong
@runic berry he's jaded, has aversion for monitized user content, and instantly goes to "They are thieves". It automatically makes it sound like he's broke, lives in a basement and cannot afford anything.
No I'm very clearly a basement dweller living in a second floor apartment it's true
the one resulting to insulting the other party sounds crazy to me
that's you smoke in case you didn't realise
Not unbased either. I am not letting some schmuck accuse honest people of theft with his loud mouth.
I mean that's typically what happens when the other party doesn't have much to go off of in the first place
monetization isn't a bad thing in these communities but not everyone is a good person. You can close your eyes and say they don't exist but they don't just go away
It's not in a proportiion where you can call everyone a thief
Damb, can you point me to where that was said?
Probably what I said earlier
👆
check what he's answering to as well
okay, everyone is a stretch even reading that
it might not be very in your face in SL but I bet it exists
definitely exists in this side of the internet... unfortunately
right after i mentioned my friend and her bad carcrash. which in that order means that he called her a thief either.
Assumptions are amazing huh
Of course it exists. everywhere where you can upload user content people gonna abuse that feature. but usually it doesn't go very far. and if it does - Lindenlabs actually start swinging hammer
Sorry but your friends don't really have anything to do with it. You don't need to weave a sad story into it to force someone to be nice about it
I can see how you can draw to that conclusion but was she ever mentioned by the other party?
And true, I never directly said anything about them
That's but one example. go through the sl marketplace. it's gonna take you a good hour before you start finding outright stolen content.
I wouldn't know stolen content even if it was placed in front of me. So no, I won't spend my time going through the marketplace
Most of the content, and all the top tier creators provide original content
new avatars. clothing for them. accessories as well
that's always top sellers
I don't and can't know every piece of content made by every creator at all times, wish I did, would be a cool superpower.
but i do know and i'm talking from experience
True, top creators are the top for a reason. Happens anywhere you look
Top in the looks, usually always the bottom for optimization
if a top creator was a theif they'd be called out and dealt with fast I imagine
oof, too real
I'm trying I promise. One step at a time
I have to agree there. a lot of top ones also overloaded with polygons
Precisely, recently there was a dispute about a model released in the jp community for being a little too "inspired" by other models
I feel like, just logically, the issue with content theft is more rampant lower in the chain. Not every small creator is a 'bad guy' obviously but, there are some that are looking to just repost some content and toss out some sob story so no one steps up to call them out. Maybe not that specific but you get the idea
Quite a decent amount of people in this community make money by selling kitbashed assets they have no permission to use for monetary purposes or are allowed to share, yet they dont care
A lot of the currently popular public models originate from bases bought on the website "Booth", most of the models explicitely state in their usage terms that they can not be shared or made public
Yep
Brutal. Had something similar happen to a model I had a hand in. Model made by another creator that they started posting Wip's for days after the model's release used a very similar body type and theme.
coincidence? they claimed that day in and day out. Funny that I haven't seen a single model with a similar style in the last 12 months, but lack of evidence isn't confirmation or whatever the saying is.
is DMCA a thing on vrc yet?
has been a thing for a while
DMCA is a thing everywhere
Sadly the huge amount of incidents makes it impossible for the creators to moderate so most just have given up
I'm trying to understand what that statement even means.
yes?
To file a DMCA claim you have to simply contact support iirc
they're a US-based company, which is..going to abide by US law
AH wait
they finally implemented digital form. in 2019 https://community.secondlife.com/blogs/entry/2572-online-dmca-complaint-submission/
Happy Monday! Today, we would like to direct your attention to our new DMCA web form. Previously, in order to file a DMCA claim, a Resident would need to send their complaint to our legal team via snail mail. As of this week, we are proud to save our Residents some postage and provide a new, easy...
Unless you want to risk things its also kinda handy to follow EU laws unless you plan to actively block all EU users
TOS section 10 covers DMCAs - also, not a vrc channel
ye lol
I honestly dont even know if its about vrc
this convo is
It's just...DMCA can't be "a thing" in a game/service, that's not what it is or how it works
Yeah its a law
Companies are DMCA-compliant or they're not, it's very basic lol
If someone wants to DMCA content in vrc they can, it has happened
it happens a lot. Copyright Team talks about it constantly, internally.
The latter sounds like a legal minefield
@brazen basalt i meant the method of implementation of response to it. If it's just by paper mail - which is allowed by us law - it's practically not a thing, not in any real sense of the way because you have to mail and wait for months until the mail arrives, at which point thief managed to sell some of it and withdraw the money, and if they're smart - disappear.
Sadly for most creators that is very very very tedious as the models keep reappearing
also https://hello.vrchat.com/copyright covers it extensively
Midori, the creator of the Kon model eventually had to resort to having public allowed with a form
Can't imagine where you got the impression we use snail mail for anything, but no. We dont do it that way.
Thinking of DMCA brought some websites to mind. Sigh, I wish they'd just disappear. So much unnecessary stress comes from just trying to keep our content away from them.
@brazen basalt oh nonono, not you, i was referring to how linden did it prior to 2019 🤣
it was snailmail only
And that is by far the best way someones models ended up
just a underwritten joke honestly
tbf you can mail a takedown notice to vrc as well, if you don't want to fill out the online form for some reason
Or if you're a lawyer which gets payed through the nose
their terms are so reasonable and 'people' still can't follow it
writing an official letter takes time and money
Well yeah thats the internet for ya
When do people follow the rules
Most assets purchasable on Booth are reditributed
Most people just get their assets from friends or a gdrive link instead of paying
i mean, the $4k USD fine is a little unreasonable imo
anything more than $0 gets redistributed. I mean damb, even Free things are just shared even if the only rule on them is if people want it then link to the store page
If I ever see my assets in a state that violates their license I will step into action
As theyre literally free to distribute and edit as long as I am credited
people out here really like "I have no money so I'ma ask around and get it for free" like nahhhh. You broke then you don't get it.
I'm broke, give me a lambo for free Pwease ;-;
Ive just started to tolerate others doing it
Tried harrassing the lambo creator on twitter for one?
As I usually only get labeled as causing drama when I point it out
right yeah, hit em with the 'It's your fault you have one and won't let me use it. I'm not like you, we can't all afford that it's not fair to us" or something xD
I should check how my assets are doing
Im still salty how big corpo art gets you money and isrespected by force while small creators who produce just as good if not better content get fucked everywhere by everyone
People'll cry for a new $800 pair of shoes like it's water but won't put $40 down for something they use 8 hours a day for 6 months
Fun observation i made in my life
I tend to always vibe really good with people who commission and respect artists
And its always a giant 50/50 on people who disrespect artists of any kind
Dam

"surely, this means post it again!"
@wise falcon Index root motion seems to be fixed with disabled locomotion
People on the redistribution side of things are delusional. 'People' actually out here like "They make enough money on their work I bet they don't care their work is shared freely" meanwhile the page has 8k downloads and the store only has 200 like BRUH. You gotta be pretty slow to actually believe that drool
:maliciousultra:
Unless that was a fluke and my root motion just randomly works once in a while
I disrespect artists which refuse to improve, i'm talking specifically dunning kruger riders. Crux of a good artistry is constant progression up until you have an artstyle distinction which is decently competent. And even then you can always refine and find new things to try. That's craftsman way.
Nah man, fuck having to 'improve'
What are people up to?
it's 7am and I have no idea if I'ma sleep or just stick it out till this evening. Try to reset my sleeping
i am listening to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZjl8uh1pDE

I want my art homies to try new things out, not just refine there craft only
this song slaps
Ive been commissioning the same artist over like 3/4 of a year now and jesus they improved a lot by just always making art
@runic berry 1. i agree with your rant entirely.
2. Offset 3 hours each day. up until you get 9pm to 5am sleep and 5am to 9pm waking hours. at least for me - that's the golden waking hours where i'm super efficient
I sleep whenever and am up whenever
Which isn't how you do that
i remember being like that 10 years ago. i can't anymore.
This is me but I'm sitting on sleeping at 7am and waking at like 2pm. People always wanna do things in the morning and I'm just ded

Well I have a relatively normal schedule on weekdays cuz of my job, on weekends I completely invert it to party with friends
going extreme on the weekend isn't any good either
All about that midnight to 07:00 waking up grind
I dont go extreme
cough
I dont take any substances or anything and just hop event to event
I am also somewhat obligated to attend a few of them as I am staff for them
5 am waking up is better because you feel super energetic. the circadian rhythms are fully locked with solar day and you get first 3-4 hours of waking hours, before breakfast, in boosted flow mode
You are not obligated to be staff for them tho
I like helping out tho as I love the events and communities
you get paid?
No lol
Fair, but you can't bring it as a argument, when it's still your free choice.
My body dies if i wake up anything before 7 no matter how early i sleep
Oh...
then you don't have to do anything
that's...sad. sorry man.
I have streams get me in that mindset when I would mod for them
I dont have to but I want to
like I had to show
One of the events has a staffing schedule so
You're still making the choice being staff
You'd cant participate in everything you may like
Especially not when it's outside your normal realms
As a exception visit, sure
But as staff? Hell no
Even if im not staff id still be there lol

unpaid participation where it feels like grind kills any motivation
especially if you have to wake up for it
What grind
I mean in general
People are different
The grind mindset is something I will never adopt
Man i barely got the energy to do 'important' thing like school, work and have a social life
Cant even think of a way where id be able to moderate a place without just plain giving up my free time and enjoyment
My goal in life is to enjoy it and make my friends happy
@pseudo jetty you don't have to have grind mindset to experience grind.
I need those long hours of just being mentally death
try 9 to 5 on friday
Which is good as long as you don't compromise with your own health and IRL life.
Which you definitely do. 
I work 8 to 5 on all days but friday so I can do less on friday
I have not been sick in years and still interact plenty with family and irl people
You're head first in grind then. Grinding means grinding down your <patience/health> for money. at least as far as my understanding of the term goes. "Back to the old grind" term.
My bro used to do 14 hr shifts until he fell asleep at the wheel, flipped his car and crashed upside down into an abandoned building. Somehow he got out of that with only some bruises
He learned though and stopped that
I mean you don't really know what you're missing out on IRL until you stop playing games and see what's actually going on around you
I see, I try to make the best of it by doing things I enjoy as my job and whenever there is time focus on what I really care about
Yep, agree there
I know i don't need to give you the full run down all the time.
Your long term damage you experience much further down the line.
I barely play games (unless its with friends) or play vrc
Learning to do 'nothing' is an proper experience most people never will get
Gotchu gotchu<3
Just sitting and doing nothing is something else
I am going to visit a friend for nearly a week on friday
Trueeee, but when you do nothing, you suddenly get the urge to just find something to do
Its all about overcoming that feeling
Look at least I no longer stay awake for the sake of being awake
I play games all the time, but i don't play mindless shit. I play games which boost the flow mode of the brain. Rimworld, factorio, dwarf fortress, cataclysm: dark days ahead, heavily modded minecraft, starbound with frackin universe- you know. Autism s(t)imulator kind of game where you get a huge facet of things to do and you go through them methodically and obsessively
If its late and I got nothing to do I just go to bed
Get on that EU4 train my dude
If you have nothing to do but it's way to early, you don't go to bed
Wow I don't have the mindset to just go to sleep
If you are doing something but your time is comming up, you end what you're doing and go to bed.
I mean yeah ofc
If its too early I aint sleeping
Then ill find myself something
But when its late and im bored ill just sleep instead of trying to find something
I can't do that, lol my mind won't let me until I have reached some kind of success.
Late nighters

"Man its 1 am and I am bored, lets check whos online" => "Oh it 1 am and I got nothing, guess ill sleep more"
@covert mica 🫂 that sounds like anxiety fuel if i ever heard one.
Let me guess, you are also burned out and or overworked?
I have only recently learned that doing things for the sake of doing them is bad
I wanna make a world but since I am outta ideas i wont force myself to work on it but instead ill wait until I have that idea
I don't know, I guess when I was in school I had so many media projects and deadlins and sat up full nights to finnish stuff. But now I got nothing but now I'm feeling sick. Because I'm alergic to grass, lol and the heat just came. So i it's a evil circle
Just a headsup, having this mindset makes you really prone to trying to overachieve (because you often can) and burning out hard
@pseudo jetty yeah that's bad. pacing yourself is the key. if it doesn't go anywhere - don't go anywhere. stop it. get some help. There is a thing such as academic cycle - brain works in subconsciousness in background. That's one of the methods. Another method is the rubber ducky method. Tho that one is primarily for programiing but it works surprisingly well for design as well
What's that
👆 this sounds like anxiety. i might be off on this
No touching grass, sad
I think you might be right AAA, idk never really thought of it
So far have not needed the rubber ducky, might have to when I have to ever touch some of my old code
The horrors I used to write since I never commented or knew when to not use oneliners
Ikr, normal grass isn't bad unless someone cut it and it dries up, or for example hay. But the Timothy grass is all in the air now so im dying
@pseudo jetty oh it's great. You don't really need rubber ducky - but the bottom line is that you need to re-offload the load from the internalized flow to the vocal/lingustical brain function - which makes brain re-internalize everything you get through it, and that helps it to defeat the "writer's blocK" so to speak
spring (tree/grass season) sucks ass
Yeaaaaaa
The pill only works 70% so

came across this while opening an old project of mine recently
How about we replace grass with a field of clover? it looks better than fucking grass anyway
Fuck grass fields
All my homies love local nature fields
👍
Now you're into something 
static int[][] field = new int[size][].Select(row => new int[size].Select(num => num = 1).ToArray()).ToArray();
clover would be better than stupid grass
preceeded by that
Bool. ee = grass
that hurt
the fuck is this, some kind of demon summoning ritual
I still don't understand what is it with seeding grass instead of better plants. Ivy (non poisonous one lol), clover - both look leagues ahead of grass. Also clover survives heatwaves much better than even hardiest grass ever could
Linq is a curse and should not be used like this in a oneliner
(It fills a 2d array with 1s)
