FOSDEM 2025

Day 2 (743)

Guys, I can't believe it, open source VRChat is here. It's called @overte and it's actually fast. It supports hundreds of people in a single instance and the editor is actually built into the game. You can hang out with your friends and make worlds together. This is INSANE.

The are working on support for Vulkan to make it even faster. Also VRM models so you can have anime girls, of course.

I brought my CO2 sensor prototype to !

In K.3.401 (a tightly-packed dev room with closed windows), I measured a CO2 concentration of over 3000 ppm.

For reference: Outside air is currently ~420 ppm, and a common suggestion is to ventilate rooms to <= 1000 ppm.

@fosdem And then, I closed out with the closing keynote: fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event

Second time in a row that I couldn't do the closing dance for health reasons, hopefully 2026 is better.

But no matter if kidney stone, car accident, or whatever. I'd attend in a wheelchair if need be.

Onwards and upwards ! 🚀
