Let's all shout out to @butterscotchv.bsky.social, who created one of the foundations of SlimeVR—automatic mount reset and Autobone. They're currently working on a stunning new mount calibration feature that could revolutionize the lives of SlimeVR users.

yes, and firmware level stuff in everything in general. it is "funny" how it is expected that all sorts of devices Just Do That, where "that" is various forms of "sucks"

If you're excited about Butterfly Slimes you should subscribe to our pre-launch page or get nya_umu at you until you do! SlimeVR.dev/smol

A prototype of SlimeVR Butterfly Tracker in purple translucent color. There are other trackers behind it to compare the size of them, with the emphasis that the butterflies are very small, thin and light.

unitonically wanted to join khronos at some point, decided it's a waste of time and we'd better try to support all possible standards that make sense, and also create our own to rule them all eventually...

this is a mess and we will fix it by having one standard to rule them all.

we got an email from our postal provider that us postal service is not ready to accept not having deminimus so there last date when they can be sure that packages shipped to the us would be delivered is yesterday...

Shipping to the United States
Dear customer,

Over the past week, we've kept you updated on upcoming changes to the process of shipping parcels and packages to the United States.

Until tomorrow, August 23, 2025, you can still deliver your parcels and packages to the United States using PostNL's current method. This way, they'll arrive at their destination in time before all items need to comply with the new regulations.

US Customs is not sufficiently prepared to implement the new legislation. Therefore, starting tomorrow, August 23rd, it will no longer be possible to send parcels and packages to the United States for the time being. We are currently working intensively on a new solution.

We understand this change will impact you. We'll keep you updated as soon as new information becomes available. Have any questions? Please contact your account manager.

See you soon,
PostNL

fun fact: the output of a lithium-ion battery includes about 2.7 μVᵣₘₛ of electrochemical noise. DC power is fake.

This chapter also brings the Yuuka poster (by @grimmjeow.bsky.social as usual). Look respectfully!

Yuuka (Radiance Heliotrope) is scantily clad in a short black dress, fishnets everywhere, and way too many belts, in a chuuni pose with her hand over her eye.
