Final design for Bobby and his charger for now - lost the Tesla logo. Added a nice shimmer of electricity. See him at wolf mountain ask him what you like, he's pretty good at scripting btw, and speaks a number of languages.

The rusty locomotive of forgotten history...

100 years ago, on 23/09/1923, in a slightly more advanced country, the people rose up and stopped the first attempt of fascism to seize power. The uprising is drowned in blood by the fascist government, but it still succeeds because the government falls from power and the fascists never succeed in fooling our people again.
Unfortunately, after only 10 years, fascism succeeded in another country and is still fooling the more naive people of the world.
Little evidence remains from that time.
In front of the train station in the town of Stara Zagora in Bulgaria, the locomotive of modern history is rusting... Yes, that's right, with this locomotive with the iconic number 555, more than 100 years ago, progress moved across half of Europe (try to find more of his long history).
Lost or intentionally deleted pages of history, changed facts... Maybe you also need safe transportation for the future? The locomotive is here, it hasn't escaped...

We had an awesome visit from the HG Safari group on Wednesday, September 20th and it went beautifully. Though we didn't get to share everything in the region, that leaves room to return and see the rest of this beautiful and amazing region. The animals had a blast, or so they said, seeing all of those humans in their natural surroundings and a few even looked pretty tasty to them. We all hope to see you again in return visits to see and learn more about conserving and preserving our beautiful world full of incredibly amazing wildlife. Thanks for coming, and please come again soon!

The MultiSim Status Report hud is now available at wizardry. It's just a button you wear on screen. You click the button and it runs through a list of your sims, (you did edit the script and put in a list of YOUR sims right?), and it checks the status of the simulator for you and posts the result in local chat. The status can be: 1) UP 2) DOWN 3) STARTING 4) STOPPING 5) CRASHED 6) UNKNOWN. This amazing little device can prevent those strange and bizarre problems that happens when a sim is 'half-crashed' and doing weird and funky stuff to your inventory database.

Asking for money is not the solution.

In the past, as Copper mentioned, Opensimulator users have already been "cheated." So why go further and ask them for money when many grid owners might need funds to keep their grid running as a hobby and source of entertainment, where they don't earn much money?

The individuals who design Opensimulator, to whom we owe our deepest gratitude, and those who work on derivatives, those who offer "ALL-IN-ONE" solutions like Fred with Dream and Kubwa with their product, do not receive money to feed their families. Even there, there are hours and hours of work, programming, bug fixing; it's not just a simple pastime. Programming to offer a free product is a highly demanding passion.

There's no need to fund the EchoVoice project and continually ask for money. It would be more appropriate to try to find a programmer and contributors to work on an active project, making it compatible with Opensimulator, perhaps developing it in parallel. That would be fantastic, or a team of volunteers who start from scratch by studying the protocols.

Why do I have this idea? Simply because every grid owner could load voice software onto their server in this way, having an independent and parallel voice in Opensimulator.

Why am I against funding EchoVoice? Simply because it would fund a company that employs a programmer and centralizes the voice server, limiting users' freedom of use. I don't believe this is the right path.

Furthermore, the campaign opened by someone insists on saying that open source and projects created by volunteers don't pay rent and don't provide food. I respond again by inviting all of you to think about Ubit, who manages Opensimulator and the contributors to the project, about Fred with Dream Grid that many of you use, and about Kubwa. But this is just one example in the opensim world. There are authors of many viewers who do it out of passion without earning anything. But to go further, it's not true that Red Hat Linux is paid for; all GNU/Linux distributions are free, services are paid for. So, this person who claims that even Linux is paid for is trying to make you believe something that is absolutely not true. Paying for advanced support service or some defined pro features in Linux is equivalent to having something exclusive that that company offers. But even there, you pay about $99 a year to have a SERVICE.

With EchoVoice, you end up funding a company that will need to ask for funding every time until it can generate its own money to pay a programmer for a simple update. Is it based on Opensimulator? If Ubit were to ask for $1 a month for everyone using his (and the contributors') hard work, he would be very wealthy. The same goes for Dream Grid, and this is where the difference lies: the passion with which you program without asking for money, because perhaps through donations you can still achieve a sum.

These individuals, as well as others behind free projects that don't ask for money, started programming and working without asking for anything; that's how trust is gained.

And anyhow, centralizing the EchoVoice service would be wrong.

Think it over carefully.
