special update!
identified an issue in opensimulator server code with /homeagent that allowed anyone on the internet to post fake info including ip address with just a avatar uuid and add entries to presence. if you had weird ghosts show up on your grid could be why maybe. who know what else somebody else could do with that. anyway /homeagent is used when you teleport to another grid or back home. I changed it so it has to get a secure session id to accept data. i arbitrarily decided to make the life of the token 8 hours. So if you are on any grid more then 8 hours without teleporting to another grid you may have to relog before teleporting. You can stay on the grid longer just not teleport anywhere. I can change that if it's an issue. the other problem had to do with assets that came in with meta data but no assets, they were piling up and causing an effect like washing tennis shoes in the washer. now the incoming metadata can only last 15 minutes without corresponding asset data or gets wiped. this is on new assets as the come in, does not mess with existing assets. have fun!

PUBLIC NOTICE REGARDING THE RURITANIA REGIONS ON LITTLEFIELD:
After 15 years with Ruritania on Littlefield, our admin/owner team has decided not to host Ruritania going forward on Littlefield Grid. This is no reflection on Xi Shi or anyone from Ruritania, it's simply a business decision we had to make. We wish Xi and Ruritania well at their new home wherever that may be (you will have to contact Xi directly for that information).

Thanks,
Walter Balazic / Dirk Mathers

I have started writing and performing songs of myth imagined for the Tenth Dimension grid. In case you are unaware, all of my work is connected from the builds on the grid, the stories, the myths, the music, the videos. I don't know if all the myths will make it into a video or just remain a song, but this is the first video and song. Thank you for taking the time to watch. I hope you enjoy the story and the music. Happy Samhain!

🏙️ Explore the City – An Interactive Carriage Tour

Imagine a horse-drawn carriage travelling through the city, offering visitors a convenient and enjoyable way to discover everything we have to offer.

How it works:

- The carriage follows a designated route through the city.
- Visitors can hop on or off at any time during the tour.
- The carriage stops at designated bus stops throughout the city.
- Whenever a passenger boards the carriage, they can enjoy the guided tour.
- At each bus stop, the carriage automatically gives the passenger a Notecard containing information about the next location or attraction.
- At the same time, the carriage automatically posts a short description in Local Chat, visible to everyone nearby.

The tour will introduce visitors to places such as:

- Art Gallery
- Pharmacy
- Shopping Area
- Rental Office
- Club
- Other interesting locations and attractions.

Additional information:

Every bus stop will also contain the corresponding Notecard, allowing visitors to pick up the information independently, even without taking the carriage.

My next steps:

I will start preparing and setting up the bus stops over the next few days.

Technical assistance needed!

I would really appreciate some help from one or two of our tech-savvy nerds who might enjoy bringing this idea to life.

We will need a little scripting to make the carriage recognize its passengers, automatically deliver the appropriate Notecards and post the location descriptions in Local Chat whenever it reaches a bus stop.

Who would like to help turn this idea into reality?

JOPENSIM/JOOMLA IS NOT DEAD!

Our new website looks pretty cool, please check it out.

www.myvirtualbeach.com

the website is running joomla 4 with compatible jopensim

Only thing is, I dont know how to turn xmlr groups back on in dreamgrid that was turned off, does anyone know how to fix that? We cant tell opensim to point to joomla otherwise group error pops up and no one can log into the grid.

Also, does anyone know how to update MYSQL in dreamgrid? I want to update to joomla 5 but MYSQL is outdated. I did look into Maria DB switch but we dont want to break it the way we were told to do it.

The goal is to get to joomla 6, but if things can't get update, I dont know what were going to do.

Do you have what it takes to ring in Halloween - At midnight - in a GRAVEYARD? Don't worry DJ Durango Jones "The Big Boss Man" Will be there to keep you feet moving.

Meet us in the cemetery next to the church - across the street from The Four Seasons Saloon. 10 - Midnight Oct 30 - Costumes encouraged but not mandatory.

Isabel Hermano – Artist Biography

A Second Life resident for 20 years, I have exhibited my artwork in numerous galleries over the years.

My artistic journey began with acrylic painting in Real Life. Since 2010, I have increasingly focused on the digital editing of photographs.

At one point, I had more than 60 different photo-editing apps on my phone! Every image featured in this exhibition was created entirely by hand on my mobile device.

The variety of themes and subjects reflects the many Instagram challenges I regularly took part in, each inspiring me to explore new ideas and creative directions.

You can find my work on Instagram:
https://www.instagram.com/yentl09_ed_fx/

More recently, I have started incorporating AI into my creative workflow, and I am thoroughly enjoying this new experience.

However, all the artworks presented in this exhibition were created entirely without AI. In today's world, they have almost become little pieces of nostalgia – a reminder of a more hands-on era of digital art.

If any of the artworks or textures catch your eye, please feel free to get in touch. I'd be happy to hear from you!
