SECURITY: How your grid CAN handle HG traveler assets.

Opensimulator documentation is available but how many of us fully utilize it?

I have a confession to make: I feel like a complete imbecile! I followed instructions on some klutz of a website which gave me instructions on running a standalone grid... GREAT... everything is up and running smoothly. Now lets build some worlds and secure my....

EGAD! Suddenly, it dawned on me, I have been using this software for years and I did not completely READ THE F⭐⭐⭐ING MANUAL!

As a refugee from several worlds, my hosting journey began with a standalone setup, where I was blissfully unaware of the complexities involved in the handling of assets from hypergrid travelers. As a former Kitely merchant, I am looking into ways people can interact with my creations without taking them. Out of ignorance, I took the wrong security measures.

One of the common misconceptions that led to limitations, such as banning prim or mesh attachments (to avoid cheating) at Dismayland, is the belief that the server must download and store visitor assets to display them properly. This is not entirely true. By applying specific precautions, you can prevent visitor assets from being stored or affecting your environment.

So if you do not want "SL-Lara" on your grid, or you do not want the rot from someone's full suitcase, you can rest in the comfort of knowing their assets will not infect your world if you take the following precautions...

Restricting the ability for hypergrid visitors to rez objects or execute scripts is crucial. By doing so, you can effectively ensure that their assets are not saved in your database, significantly reducing the risks of unwanted modifications or overwrites. This approach provides a balanced way to maintain control over your creations while still offering visitors the opportunity to enjoy your content visually.

By understanding how asset management works in OpenSim and applying the correct security measures, you can create an environment that respects the creative efforts of your residents while sharing the beauty of your virtual worlds with others.

This approach is not without caveats: when you travel to other worlds, you WILL appear as a blob while your viewer shows you a cached appearance. It will not stop copycats, the most determined rippers can easily grab what is seen, but without your code and hidden assets, those useless rips end up in stuff boxes, wasting valuable server resources. There is nothing I enjoy more than making clever obstacles in today's virtual 'Wild Wild West'!

TL;DR: When we share knowledge openly and freely, EVERYONE BENEFITS.

We're making progress! Today we finished the spike, which can drain 10, 25, or even 40 liters of vital fluid. I'll add the video of the spike once I've finished the Soul Reaper, which is the next step. I apologize for the delay, but between my day job, family life, and other commitments besides OpenSimulator, I haven't been able to find much time to dedicate to it. You can watch the video of what I've already accomplished, keeping in mind that the spike wasn't finished at the time of filming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQJIaxfVj_Q

Thank you for your patience.

Now check out this little beauty!! It's a lamp that is two lovers dancing in front of a heart shaped moon, ahh but there is more; it is also musical and plays some very sweet love songs. So, lights, camera, action and create your very own gorgeous love adventure with this beautiful lamp by yours truly! You will find it in the Holidays & Season's section of the mall. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Well Christmas 2025 is over and now belongs to the ages, 2025 is over and belongs to the ages as we continue endlessly moving forward and growing, but not to despair about what is gone, no we celebrate so much in the year to come, especially those we LOVE the most - friends, family, and our significant other, and so with that in mind I have created some "VALENTINES" items for y'all! They are found in the Holidays & Seasons section of the Mall. Drop by and check them out. I'm putting the Valentines stuff out early because we who own the grid are moving this month and well we have a month's worth of packing and scheduling and address changes, utilities to turn off and utilities to turn on, I'm sure if you've done any moving you know how very busy it can be. And well, I didn't want to let you down and miss making Valentines stuff for y'all to enjoy. C'mon over and check it out and there will be more very soon. Blessings and much love, Lavia!

< An Apple is an Apple > Exhibition @ Pixie's Pixels

Hello OpenSim residents,

Since I enjoy experimenting with AI, I decided to exhibit the test images. Under the motto < An Apple is an Apple >, you can see the different results of various AI image generators, all using the same prompt.

hop://lfgrid.com:8002/Littlefield%20East/134/72/25

Take a moment to visit my gallery in Littlefield East, listen to the atmospheric sounds there, and find a moment of deep inner peace and serenity.

If you like, you are welcome to take the image textures with you; I have put them up for sale for 0LFG$.

The older images on the theme of < OpenSim Snapshots vs. AI > can now be found on the 1st floor.

I hope the direct teleport to the gallery building works, as someone locked the entrance doors and lost the key while I was away. So until help arrives and someone opens the doors again with the spare key, the only way to get into the building is by teleport.

I apologize for this inconvenience.

Hi everyone! Today we start moving with friends. I found this woman's exercise videos a couple of years ago, and she is amazing. The movements are all low-impact and great for all of us over a certain age. This video focuses on the belly (core) and is done while sitting. Have a sturdy chair available. While it focuses on the core, she also gets the rest of your body moving.

We are starting with this video and will repeat doing these movements for the rest of January. We will add new ones in February. The idea, though, is to move, and we felt this was the perfect video to get us all started. You can move with us once a day or all three times and only do what is physically comfortable for you to do.

Our resolution this year is to get into better shape, and moving together will keep us accountable. It's too easy to say, "Oh, I'll do it tomorrow." We know how it is working on projects in-world and getting caught up in them, before you know it, you have been sitting for hours.

We are doing it 3x a day for 15 minutes. I'm sharing the video link so you can take a look at it, but we will be sharing our screen in the Daily Movement voice channel on the OpenSim Connect Discord Channel, that way, we can all do it together!

Please come in about 2 minutes before we start to get set upGridtimes 11am, - 2pm - 5pm Mon through Thursday 11am - 2pm Fridays
