What St Patrick's Day in OpenSim means:

Almost everyone is wearing green or even going beyond that. (Seriously, you have to see my brother.)

The DJ is playing only music from Ireland.

If you're lucky, every other solo dancer dances an Irish jig. Even on high-heeled shoes which I do not recommend. That's why I always wear flat shoes on St Patrick's Day.

Some may be drunk enough to be able to pronounce "Áine Caoimhe".

And: Shamrocks. Shamrocks everywhere. Including four-leaf shamrocks. People even yay shamrocks.

You haven't partied in the Hypergrid until you've celebrated Cornflakes Week among dinkies. While wearing a plunger that one of the dinkies gave you on top of a top hat.

Happening right now.

I finally sat down and made a video showcasing the ExGear in #MobiusGrid. There's a version of this (called Type B) on #SecondLife too (this one has the slightly better physics though): #OpenSimulator www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIx1...

Work has been resumed on establishing connections between the Fediverse and the likewise decentralised metaverse, i.e. OpenSimulator.

For now, the only feature that's actually implemented is sending OpenSim group messages out via ActivityPub. However, it has been tested against the opposite end of the Fediverse from Mastodon: Hubzilla, (streams) and Forte.

Also for OpenSim, of course.

It has finally happened. I was a guest at Inworld Review and interviewed by Thirza Ember and James Atlloud of @HG Safari fame as well as Petlove Petshop today.

Here's the video, redirected to Invidious. (Link instead of embedding so I hopefully don't have to spend months writing a visual description that'll take you days to read or listen to.)

Better yet: Thirza wanted to interview me about the Fediverse. Good thing OpenSim users are already used to things being decentralised because OpenSim itself is. In fact, I could have told her that some of the tropes associated with OpenSim being decentralised apply to the Fediverse as well.

Extra shoutouts to @Elena Rossini for her Fediverse video featured on fediverse.info and to @Dorena Verne as a good example of a grid manager (see Petlove's video in the video) because she has managed to move Dorenas World from a Windows server to a Debian server and considerably speeding it up in the process.

For those who aren't familiar with Inworld Review: It's an OpenSim-themed talkshow on YouTube started by the late Mal Burns many years ago. His whole backlog of almost 400 episodes can be found here. And here is the channel on which Mal's former co-host continue Inworld Review without him with 62 episodes so far.
