>If I'm REALLY turned on, how long does it take for me to go from "I wanna use this" to "I am using this"?

I'm glad this is a concern. I maintain software to the effect of buttplug.io and a particular inspiration to start the project was how difficult alternatives were to get going with. I don't want to install anything, or register anywhere, I just want to get my rocks off!

And thank you for buttplug.io. It's super easy to integrate!

I realise this isn't much of a question, sorry :)

I'm laughing so hard because the guidelines in that section track very closely with things that I'm constantly reminding people about with unmanned aviation software. You just need to s/turned on/in an emergency/.
I used to work in self-driving cars waaaay back when (2008-2011, the early days of the current era) and I did pick up some of these ideas from there. :)
Wow, that's awesome! Super curious what project it is you run. (If you don't want to link it to your HN account, feel free to poke me directly, my contact info is in my HN account bio :) )
Sure; I have a Walltaker[0] (hi Gray) client with Buttplug support[1], it buzzes when your wallpaper updates! But my magnum opus was software akin to Edgeware[2] - basically, based on a Yaml config, it'll show you local or remote porn in various ways. That would have Buttplug support had Github not nuked the repo and ignored my reinstatement request for 4 months. I chucked it on Codeberg[3] if you're curious.
