I replaced my soap with exfoliating sandpaper. Germs BEWARE!
Internet connected buttplugs are great, there’s even a model where you can create an entire chatroom to take control of it 😈
The thing is, this would just be equivalent to leaving it on at all hours, because who would join such a chat room without the intention of switching it on. Even if you joined such a chat room and had some restraint and decided to wait till the moment you thought would be most amusing, someone else would definitely just decided that it should be on now and basically the only lull would be if the number of users was relatively limited and mostly in the same timezone so everyone is sleeping.
I’ve spent way too long on the Internet.
Because I actually understand this.
I should probably spend less time on the Internet.
I switched my house for a shitty apartment and I’m never going back. I replaced my car with a streetcar and bus ride and you should too. I switched my wife for being single, and she’s never coming back.
Sounds like you need to play country music in reverse.
Someone is getting serious about their chess game
When AWS went down, the buttplug got stuck on max vibrate and overheated…
Imagine people in remote chastity cages.
and I was like, I’ve already moved the pawn to E6
I sacrificed a Queen.
Kill the WiFi!
Amazon pulled an israeli pager attack on your ass. Literally.
Best. Day. Ever.
To be fair a phone that can be docked and used as any number of other workstations should really be the goal. One device that can do everything is the dream… Running Linux also a requirement.
I did Samsung dex for a while, its ok as long as you don’t want low level access to what you connecting to.
Now I switched to a gpd micropc 2 and its built in ethernet, sd card, usb a and c sockets and native linux make it so much more useful. No longer do i need dongles or other rubbish.
Plus it will do multiple monitor support, something dex struggles with. The keyboard is a little small for touch typing but the former factor is worth the trade of for me.
Starting from Android 15 you should be able activate a native “terminal” app in the Developer Settings, which is Debian running in a VM. No need for termux anymore. I have it activated in GrapheneOS but haven’t used it much.
You’re describing Ubuntu’s Convergence, something Canonical was working on back in like 2011 I think.
Sucks nothing really came of it. By 2014 there were a few functional demos of it but you don’t really see it nowadays.
With the many attempts in Android to implement this it’s a little shocking that there hasn’t been more work in the open source space, but I guess Ubuntu mobile and Firefox OS couldn’t even make a dent and mobile costs so much to develop for
To be fair, all that buttplugs lack is internet connectivity and support for basic office software.
Now everyone can get fucked by Microsoft Excel
I actually own a sex toy that, in order to use certain features, I need to connect to my phone via bluetooth and log in to their server on their app with a username and password. Careful what you wish for.
Shit. Get Lovense or something instead. Still has Bluetooth connectivity but there are so many open source clients to make use of.
Thanks for the suggestion!
The furry community has your back!

Hey some do have internet connectivity.
Why wouldn’t the buttplug have internet connectivity? Kids, remember to update your sex toys with the latest security patches!
Maybe I should watch iasip Holy shit that was great
It’s pretty good, one of only a handful of shows that I can tolerate rewatching. The humor in unrepentant assholes constantly getting their comeuppance is pretty timeless.
Edit: lemmy, that wasn’t a username, and frankly, I don’t even know how you came to the conclusion that it was!
It says it’s connected & morse code exists
The dream is playing music on the strings of reality. A phone is just a pitstop.
We made some progress for a bit when we had the Samsung Dex that could run Ubuntu. The closest thing I have now is the steam deck but it’s easier to just have a laptop that plugs in
Some of the Windows phones had that feature. But the technology was still a bit clunky at the time.
The ER staff don’t like it when people dock phones with their butt.
Yes! Need a proper Linux phone at long last!
I love the amazing advances in hardware and general tech that enabled this progression.
However, what I am finding only works better and better for my brain and well-being is to push in the opposite direction. I went from wearing a smart watch 23 hours a day, 365 days of the year for several years, to not even knowing where it is right now.
I do most of my computing/gaming/browsing on an old desktop PC running Linux. I just replaced the fans in one of the PCs that’s 15 years old because they sounded like a locomotive.
The best part though is getting up to get a drink, hit the restroom, or even go chill outside with my pets for an hour and just leave my phone wherever it’s sitting. Just some time to exist and pay attention to my senses and the world around me without getting fucking notifications.
Or hell, even being at work and literally working on technology while being isolated from the outside tech world trying to get my attention.
Though if you have a smart watch that can save you from missing notifications during those times. That’s why mine had to go, lol.
23 hours a day, 365 days of the year
Love it.
And that might be one I haven’t seen, which is even better.
I’ve worn a pebble smartwatch for a decade just to avoid all the annoying noises our phones make non stop. So i keep my phone on silent and I’ve got the pebble set to only get notifications for texts and calls neither of which i get a ton of on a daily basis. I like to be able to glance down and either ignore or pull out my phone and deal with.
I am also a big fan of leaving my phone in the other room and dont wear the pebble a lot on weekends just to get a break.
I’ve never had a pebble but they always looked great. If I wanted to go back to a smart watch but keep it more watch-like and less “tiny phone stuck to my body” then I’d be checking them out.
The benefit you described is one of the things that led me to wear one for so long. You get notifications silently yet they can be attention-grabbing (adhd sends its regards), and you can check them or the time or the weather without fumbling with your phone.
Replace things?
Virtually every computing device I’ve ever owned is somewhere in the house I’m in. I sold my first PC (a Leading Edge 8088 IBM clone) and I still regret it. It’d have been hard to get hooked into my homelab, but I would have figured it out.
Yeah but you cant shove it up your ass.
Not with that attitude
If at first you don’t succeed…
Start with something smaller and work your way up or just push harder.
Pain can be a source of pleasure

look at this fancy bastard and his house that he owns with storage space.
Well you see, they built that house entirely out of old computer cases nailed together.
It’s a beige house that’s slowly turning yellow.
You save a lot of money over the decades by wringing every penny of value from all your electronics.
I want one of those internet connected buttplugs so I can actually get fucked by the gay people in my phone and not just the ones IRL.
I have some remote controlled toys. Sounds fun but the apps are shit. Even with a partner it’s horrible to actually use it. You just want to get fucked but instead the app fucks you with ads, bugs and complicated constructions to get it working and that way to get fucked is really not something that makes you cum.
I have a bunch of FOSS apps made for a few different toy platforms already bookmarked if I got one, as well as a couple of VR “games” with support. I just don’t want to spend more than $100 on a toy that isn’t custom made from Bad Dragon.
I have toys from this site: https://www.lovense.com/
They’re the best in my experience, the app is the least horrible.
Seriously I replaced my PC (you know, big tower with lot of fans) with a Beelink MiniPC and OMG I do not regret it! It is super small, like 4"x5", sitting on my desk, sometimes I can hear the fan but mostly never, it’s fast, quiet, powerful. Best thing ever.
Unless you want to do AAA gaming or 4k video editing, a cheap mini PC will be pretty much all you need. Those things have been getting pretty good lately.
Same here. My gaming rig moved into the living room, and I’m about to start playing around with containerized gaming in proxmox with it.
Thinkcentre tiny here, good for absolutely everything except gaming. So I got a bigger box for that.
My requirements are bidirectional communication. If the buttplug doesn’t register and decode clench-morsecode, I will not use it!
Of course!
Then, when AWS goes down it’ll turn on randomly, reset the password to the default 50 character password and not unlock until you’ve input it corectly.
Imagine you’d have to unlock your butt plug before it allows you to remove it. Kill me now.
Last one reminds me of Sandevistan BuTT-Plug
