This was at SXSW like 3 months after the public opening of the site? We were all still making the “haha I tweeted what I had from lunch” joke. If only we had known.

So buttplug.io as a library is made for supporting communication with toys from a host, but itself is not made to be a peripheral protocol. It's verbose af because of some of the early decisions I made that we are now very very stuck w

Yup! The library is named Buttplug just because I like making large media publications say "Buttplug". I even made a whole video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6bghuCy6d8 Buttplug.io actually works wit

Possibly! For instance, when I built the twitterdildonics project back in 2007 (changed tweet character values to vibration speeds, using an extremely early precursor to buttplug.io), a lot of people were saying I should transmit using mo

Sooooooooo someone is actually implementing a Buttplug client in pure elisp. I have a feeling that's gonna get posted here once it's done.

Ok, so, sort of NSFW links ahead, but there's actually an open source project that does this. The Nogasm is a pleasure denial project that uses pelvic floor contraction frequency, as sensed by pressure output in an air filled cavity, t

We actually just got sensor support in the latest major version of Buttplug, so reading input from pressure sensors, kegelcizers, etc is now a possibility!

Aw shucks, thanks. :D (I'm the Buttplug project lead, though anyone who's seen the threads on it before is probably aware since I tend the reply to every. single. comment.)

For everyone about to comment on the garbage in the commit: It looks like the committer made their changes in the top commit, then merged the updated CompViz StableDiffusion change set on top of it for some reason. That's where the lic
