Yup! If it vibrates, we support it. The XBox controller (and other rumble gamepads) are probably the most widely owned vibrators, so hey, why not? I'm still trying to find a bluetooth electric toothbrush with a controls API. Most of them just have timers. :(
If you ever find one, let me know. I'd love to have a sonicare that just lets me use its power button as a simple on/off toggle. No timers, no 30-second stutters. Not even joking.
I’m pretty sure you can disable those if you look in the manual.

#184If somebody created a chat-app based on this, perhaps it could push WhatsApp out of the market (cf. VHS versus Betamax)
Most companies that make consumer hardware distribute their own apps, of wildly varying qualities. :)
Which is why an app that supports all of the gadgets regardless of make/model could be useful.

1. This is a topic that actually, seriously comes up often on cam model forums, and verification of authenticity is, to me, something that is just completely fucked in terms of even being an idea. Do these same customers get angry when they find out the movie they just paid to see was fiction? 2. Are you familiar with findom? Cause that's like, just straight up what findom is. Literally unbalanced trade of capital as…
1. If you buy a ticket to a live theatre show you don't expect to see a movie.

A live theater show doesn't seem comparable, since in the cam model's case they're being viewed through a screen regardless. Your sibling comment that compares it to finding out a live broadcast turns out to be a movie is more apt.

How can tech employers use this technology to optimize workplaces for comfort and productivity? Also, can teledildonics be applied to improve online shopping experiences and social media? I am thinking that buttplug scripts could be the new emojis or css dazzle. Lastly, there seems to be some asymmetry in the development of these technologies: Passive reception of dildonic signals is emphasized, active transmission o…
On those first two, we use Tampermonkey as a research platform for A/B testing integration with stock web interfaces. https://github.com/buttplugio/buttplug-tampermonkey On the tracking of muscle contractions, I'd recommend checking out the Nogasm project, an open source orgasm denial system that uses air pressure changes to track pelvic floor contractions, which are indicative of arousal levels. These could be track…

Hmm queue Ripley/Alien -- well "micro-changes in air density"

#187I'm surprised I didn't know something like this existed until now. I think it's ingenious honestly to open source software for pleasure hardware. I also learned a new word and I love it!

#188This is actually an amazing project. I see they have an extensive list of devices already supported. People freely discuss on HN all the time about the security of private messaging between different people online and how corporations track and use this data against us as consumers, but it seems people are incapable of recognizing and discussing this maturely when in fact the same issues are present with teledildonic…
As cliche as it sounds, maybe sex will be what brings privacy to the internet.
Not surprising at all; people always say sex/porn has brought most of the advances of Internet technology (at least in the earlier days).
