there is holoearth hope: build/convert your spaces by hosting on the public web.
Use Janus(web) and make your spatial work last by owning/selfhosting your URLs (or archiving on https://t.co/Hi2wRZPlw3)

We've made some great progress on being able to render AFRAME scenes inside Janusweb.
Soon we will push out a new release of https://t.co/YU8RGvLTgw so you can start playing with it.

This RSS-translator will be in the next release of janusweb.
Link/surf to any RSS-URL in your 3D space, and it'll give you a portal to this room ♥️

it doesn't matter whether you're running a potato 3D engine, or a pumpkin game engine..we love you all! ❤️

Engine prefixes will progressively enhance your 3D files.
It even comes with a blender addon!

@mbauwens Star Trek: definately TNG (The Next Generation)
Star Wars: cool
Dune: depressing

TNG's emphasis on humanist philosophy is what keeps making me excited about the future/
It should be OK to be wary, and it's OK to be excited about it imho.

Sad to see Rec Rooms close their doors.

The thing with hosting on the open web, is that you are in full control.
Yes, freedom comes with a cost.

@mbauwens is he suggesting that rightweing rhetoric about sovereignty is in fact just another flavor of globalist expansionism in disguise? Criticising the statusquo in order to start their own?

🤘.vtt subtitle file-support for .glTF files (with spatial XR Fragment anchors) is getting there!
ps. this scene is 100kb and works supernice on potato XR devices 😍

🔥we dont need billions dollars and gigabytes.
This janusxr room is a 100kilobytes glTF file.
Blender techniques used:
* tiny jpg (highlighy compressed) jpg textures
* roughness/metallic PBR-params + gpu instancing
* XR Fragments engine prefixes: https://t.co/Llmq8dWBio

@itslilyszabo @mbauwens Agreed. Though Edward Bernays (nephew of Freud) had quite some success promoting the opposite in American culture. ('products identify who you are').
This is an old (but good) docu about it: https://t.co/HwoIzzJNUl

Colorgrading VR matters.
Today played around with the HUDLUT extension.
Embed supercheap colorgrading (8x8 pixels texture) in your 3D file https://t.co/N7dJtBej9g

Will soon push the implementation for janusweb / janusxr https://t.co/1dh0NGajzc

@mbauwens Every emotional cue, every thought is based in the past..statistics is also introspection.
The video demonstrates somebody who over-applies corporatism values to his worldview..even his personal life (he says 'at home too').
I don't blame him, it's hard to escape.

@mbauwens @nunet_global Cultural disintegration perhaps due to govs blindly allowing Metcalfe's value over Dunbar's number.
The 90s 'connecting-anyone-anywhere'-FOMO is pivoted to JOMO.
I (sadly) suspect further militarisation (AI-generated content/discourse) will accelerate this.

[L Ξ Ο N V Λ N Κ Λ Μ Μ Ξ N @[email protected] @coderofsalvatio]

@mbauwens @nunet_global Does not sound confused indeed.
Thanks for elaborating. I've also seen tolerant discourse moving to closed microcommunities.
It seems when a public network becomes militarized (financially/regulatory) then (ironically) communities will create their own mini-versions inside of it.

[L Ξ Ο N V Λ N Κ Λ Μ Μ Ξ N @[email protected] @coderofsalvatio]

Realisation thanks to @mbauwens:

The ActivityPub protocols allows commenting & following users regardless of platform.
Basically un-enshittified internet right?

But Mastodon adds de)federation/banning-features on top of that.
Result: some people get cold (re-enshittified) feet

[L Ξ Ο N V Λ N Κ Λ Μ Μ Ξ N @[email protected] @coderofsalvatio]

@mbauwens @nunet_global Nevertheless, I don't blame you for being confused and cautious.
It's ironic how open protocols (like ActivityPub) can be completely misrepresented by its adopters & endusers (Mastodon & dictator-communities e.g.)
The chicken-egg problem is that you need them to promote it 😅
