AND WE'RE BACK

Finally hit the end of my respiratory infection, so to celebrate I sat in front of the computer all weekend and worked on buttplug-rs. Do I know how to party or what?

Being late to the update and not having much to say because I'm sick. Respiratory infections suck.

Work continues on getting buttplug-rs inline with C#. Getting lots of protocols ported and tested, looking good for a next release soon.

AGH IT'S DONE IT'S FINALLY DONE

After busting ass for the past week, btleplug 0.4.0 with macOS support is done. This means buttplug-rs now works with bluetooth toys on Win10, MacOS, Linux, and possibly even iOS once I figure out how to test that. This is the first time we'll have had reliable bluetooth running on all 3 desktop platforms under the same Buttplug library in the 2.75 years the project has existed. This is a HUGE help for me going forward, as it really does look like we'll be able to use rust for almost everything.

Oops I accidentally another library

Yup, you're reading that right. Not Buttplug, BtlePlug. :(

Same thing we do every decade, Pinky. Try to buttplug the world.

Same shit, different year.

Holy shit. Rust Bluetooth works.

Ok well I said back in like, October/November that it was gonna be spec and Rust updates for a while, and I apparently meant it.

A continuous stream of questionable choices.

(Warning: extremely developer/tech heavy update ahead)

Tuesday is the new Monday.

For some reason, shocking seems to be the name of the game at Buttplug HQ lately. I just reversed a Dog Training Collar (https://twitter.com/buttplugio/status/1200882638086537216)) and am now working on the Pavlok (https://twitter.com/buttplugio/status/1202070730638102528)) as well as some knock-off bluetooth TENS unit for a friend. This is mostly a matter of timing and coincidence, but still, lots of shocky shit on my desk right now, and probably finally getting a shock message in Buttplug soon.

Being a day late, but I hate missing more than 1 week in a row of these.

2 releases in the past week!

Buttplug Rust is actually kinda sorta maybe a thing now!

The Client API has been implemented in Rust, using the new async/await system. It seems to be working pretty well so far, though I haven't gotten to do a ton of testing yet. Now that the release is out, I'm hoping to start testing FFI for writing a C# layer on top of it (which would then mean hopefully simple Unity support!), as well as starting to implement the Server side in it.
