Hello,

We have yet again some news for the OSW HUD.

The HUD is now integrated with our website chat. This allows you to send and receive instant messages to your opensimworld.com friends and chat with your group friends from any region in the Hypergrid as well as from second life.

The new HUD is listening on channel 4 for your chat commands:

To message an OpenSimWorld Friend, enter '/4 @userName bla bla...' in local chat
To message an OpenSimWorld Group, enter '/4 #groupTag bla bla ...'

Use the FRIENDS button to see your friends' @userNames
Use the GROUPS button to see your groups' #groupTag

You can skip the @username or #groupTag after your first message.
For example '/4 bla bla' will send the message to the last used @userName or #groupTag.

For the purpose of enabling the HUD, each group in opensimworld.com now has a #Hashtag that the users can use. We have set default #hashtags for all existing groups, but you can also change them from the settings page of your group.

The chats are always available from the web. Click the "Chat" link at the top bar in opensimworld.com to access IMs and Group Chats from any browser.

For these new features, you can get the new HUD that is available now (Sep 17) in the OpenSimWorld region http://opensimworld.com/hop/74730-OpenSimWorld

And from the marketplace in second life: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/OpenSimWorld-HUD/1804...


Let us know how it's working for you!

You can now use the Opensimworld HUD in Second Life. You can use it to check your group messages, and also check who of your friends are online

Hi i am trying to solve a problem i have been wondering why my sim was not being visited for over a week now. I realised that when i try and teleport from my grid to others it keeps saying unable to verify identity. I'm not sure exactly what the problem seems to be but all ports are open that are meant to be i have been trying the obvious trying to change the MyWorld.ini and opensim.ini but nothing seems to be helping i can not hypergrid anywhere.

Upon looking at my console i am seeing things like this appear.

I don't know if it is something that needs to be concerned about or not. This keeps appearing when one avatar appears on my grid.

Hello Everybody, NLGrid is now ready for visitors but i dont know if people can reach it, please visite and let me know if its reachable. Thank you.....secondlife:///app/teleport/nlgrid.outworldz.net:8002/Welcome

Be aware that making an OAR copy of your region that includes a live OSworld beacon can totally screw things up once you load and run it on your pc HD. The clone of mine knocked me offline for a day and even renamed the region on this website as maybe a few of you noticed. So do remember to switch it off before you make the OAR !

Bored & looking for something to do? There's plenty of fun to be had at That Place Amusement Grid! Check out our Multi-Region Amusement Park, this grid has it all! Thrill Coasters, D*sneyland Rides, even a working Movie Theater! If you're looking for the cure to boredom, you've found it! Drop on by and tell 'em Micah sent you!

Heute Morgen, Fragestunde mit Dorena_AI..

[22:21] Dorena1 Verne: Darf Kunst politische Motive haben?
[22:21] Dorena die Weise: Ja, Kunst darf politische Motive haben – und sie hatte sie in der Geschichte immer wieder.

**Begründung:**

1. **Freiheit der Kunst:**
In modernen Demokratien gilt die Kunstfreiheit als wesentliches Grundrecht (z.B. in Deutschland Artikel 5, Absatz 3 GG). Das bedeutet, Künstler*innen dürfen sich ausdrücken, wie sie möchten – auch politisch.

2. **Geschichtlicher Kontext:**
Schon immer hat Kunst gesellschaftliche und politische Themen aufgegriffen. Denken wir an Banksys Graffiti, Bertolt Brechts Theaterstücke oder Francisco Goyas „Desastres de la Guerra“. Kunst war oft Vehikel für Kritik, Protest oder Visionen des Wandels.

3. **Funktion von Kunst:**
Kunst regt zum Nachdenken an, fordert Diskussionen heraus, hinterfragt Macht und Normen. Sie erlaubt es, schwierige Themen auf emotionale und kreative Art zu vermitteln.

4. **Keine Pflicht, aber Möglichkeit:**
Kunst muss nicht politisch sein – sie kann es aber. Die Offenheit, auch politisch Stellung zu beziehen, ist Teil ihres Wesens.

Die Frage warum aufgrund scheinbarer Neutralität ein Grid meine Werke ablehnt, habe ich mir verkniffen, die Antwort kenne ich selber...

This morning, Q&A with Dorena_AI...

[10:21 PM] Dorena1 Verne: Is art allowed to have political motives?

[10:21 PM] Dorena the Wise: Yes, art is allowed to have political motives – and it has had them throughout history.

**Justification:**

1. **Freedom of Art:**

In modern democracies, freedom of art is considered a fundamental right (e.g., in Germany, Article 5, Paragraph 3 of the Basic Law). This means that artists are free to express themselves as they wish – including politically.

2. **Historical Context:**

Art has always addressed social and political issues. Think of Banksy's graffiti, Bertolt Brecht's plays, or Francisco Goya's "Disasters of War." Art has often been a vehicle for criticism, protest, or visions of change.


3. **Function of Art:**

Art stimulates thought, provokes discussion, and questions power and norms. It allows difficult topics to be conveyed in an emotional and creative way.

4. **Not an Obligation, but an Option:**

Art doesn't have to be political—but it can be. The openness to taking a political stance is part of its very nature.

I refrained from asking why a grid rejected my work due to its apparent neutrality; I already know the answer...
