As we haven't yet learned to press seeds for oil there is a little bottle of sunflower oil available in-store now for frying things! http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Centauria/193/96/22

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.

Today on NovaLandia: "The Death of Connection: From 2010 Era Dating to Modern Humans as 'Content'"

You probably didn’t even know that there *was* a dating scene in Second Life. At least, it’s never been as prominent as it is now, thanks to a developer releasing the “Thundr” dating app. I believe I’...

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.

The addition of PBR material support to #SecondLife is awesome but I find myself really frustrated by how many people simply aren't bothering to include fallback textures anymore.

As an example, this arm is the new Galewing Harpy set by aii, a brand I LOVE but that has recently gone PBR-only. On the left is what someone with a new PBR-enabled viewer sees. In the middle is what my friends with older computer see. And this is really trivial to fix for creators! On the right is the same arm with the "base color" material from the PBR applied to the "diffuse" slot, and the normals/bump maps from the PBR material. Yes, the shininess is different, but it's so much better than people with older programs seeing just... blank white nothing...

I had to use a sketchy and technically forbidden program to get the materials and do this fix myself, even though I bought the item fair and square :(
