Golden Age will be staying at VWZgrid as long as the gridowner it wants. It's my gift to him, for his generousity to give me free sims to work at them.
All the work I make at his grid, will be given to the gridowner to use in Open Sim , just because we can haha!

Emin Style 'I thought you loved me, but it was never real'
Pollock Style 'Boat and Butterfly wings No. 23'
Dali 'Art Factory Dream - Woman finds Butterfly wings in place of sails'

Little hacker bastard. Look how big the story is. You can hack as much as you want. It doesn't change the story. You are only momentary and nothing you do as a hacker makes you bigger. You are nothing, you have nothing, you will not have been in the end. How pathetic and pitiful. You think what you do is important and right. But you are alone, frustrated, and your hacking successes are those pathetic self-affirmations that don't really satisfy you. You want a world where you are respected. But you are not able to find your way in this world. Not able to approach people and see and accept the positive. To be or not to be, that is the question. In the end it was light or nothing. It's up to you. The negative cannot win. The + always flows to the - and no hacker turns it around. Hackers are mostly children of drug parents or rich people who are socially unfit. So sad, OK smart kids wake up sometime and make something of their life. Failures give up and their characters become impoverished. They fight hard for recognition in an environment where everyone is abusing everyone else to achieve the same illusion. In principle intelligent .... but what use is it if you are socially unfit? There are people who have created positive things, whose name will survive. Your miserable life and the attempts to enrich yourself ...... Your demise will not be noticed.

Another Safari tour this week to see a tree house, a mermaid's hangout, and Cinderella with a twist! Join the party if you can for some group hypergridding. Show up at the Clubhouse here on HG Safari region a little before 12:00 Grid time to get all the last minute details.
If you can't make it, you may enjoy these recent posts about opensim on the HG Safari blog

Making AI images is fun, but at what cost?

We’ve all seen the funny, beautiful, and creative pictures generated by AI. But have you ever stopped to think about the environmental cost of creating them? I see them on this website daily! I have made hundreds of Ai images!

But, did you know? Every AI-generated image requires computing power. That means electricity, water to help cool data centers, and powerful computer equipment that requires mining and manufacturing.

And every time we ask AI to create a picture, fix a mistake, or generate another version, we use even more resources.

One image may not seem like much, but multiply that by millions of people generating millions of images every day.

More energy consumption. More water demand. More carbon emissions. More electronic waste.

We talk about protecting our planet, reducing waste, and conserving natural resources. Yet we're embracing a technology without always considering its environmental footprint.

I'm not saying AI doesn't have valuable uses. It absolutely does. But do we really need to generate endless pictures just because we can?

Making AI images is fun. But is the environmental cost worth it?

Something to think about before clicking "generate" again.

A Python project I started working on this morning. An automatic marine life and boat route creator. You tell it where you want to go, and boom! It makes a nice route for your script to use, and a jpeg grid map snippet, for your viewing pleasure!

I'm kind of blown away that it finds it's way through all the narrow rivers and channels. This is pretty specific to GroovyVerse, because it uses our terrain height maps that are saved during our daily backup regimen. We will have a lot of automated boats and pods of dolphins and humpback whales wandering the grid at their own whimsy. lol
