Being sexy in OpenSim requires illegal content all over that's as new as possible and absolutely over the top and impractical, but don't you dare reject it

⏚ J'ai un ensemble de tutoriels qui couvrent tous les modes d'installation d'un simulateur OpenSim.
Mais, parfois quand je me relis, je vois des erreurs d'étourderie : un oubli, un type d'IP erroné, la référence au mauvais fichier de configuration.
J'essaie de faire le maximum pour ne pas me tromper mais l'erreur est humaine alors, si vous lisez ces tutos, si vous rencontrez une erreur ou si ma méthode ne fonctionne pas, pouvez-vous m'informer ici ? Merci

@Stefan Bohacek Abandoned 3D worlds?
I'm not sure if OpenSim has anything that'd fall into this category. Sometimes the line between rarely visited and actually abandoned is blurred, seeing as how low OpenSim's population density is. Also, if a place in OpenSim is abandoned by its own owner, it's most likely shut down entirely. So if land exists with something on it, there's always someone behind it who pays to keep it online or at least keeps a standalone or grid server running at home.
That is, I do have a few ideas, for example, projects that have spent years in the same clearly unfinished state. Or what I think maybe OSgrid's old landing sim for new avatars.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
By the way: Virtual fireworks are clean, quiet, they don't smell, they leave nothing behind, and you can re-use them.
It's still disquieting that they're being launched at a blimp circling above the scenery...

"#SecondLife is alive and well. It celebrated its 20th birthday last year. And it has evolved a lot since the hype. Remember those choppy, blocky in-world videos from around 2007, recorded on an utterly underpowered and overwhelmed single-core computer and compressed in glorious MPEG-2, showing ugly avatars and awkward movements? All this is a thing of the past. Second Life looks a lot different now. And two years from now, it'll look different again."

OpenSim server issues fixed
I happily run my own OpenSim server that is hooked onto OSGrig.org. My account there dates from 2007 and it got broken after the big crash in 2010. It took quite a long time for them to restore the data and after a few years I decided to go back and see if i could revive my sims from the backups. And in 2013, I did so, successfully. You h…

Working on new strategy for describing and explaining meme images; CW: long (over 4,400 characters), Fediverse meta, alt-text meta, image description meta
Replied in thread
@The Nexus of Privacy
I don't use the Fediverse for microblogging anyway. I never came from Twitter to Mastodon. I've never been on Twitter, and this identity of mine has never been on Mastodon or anything else geared towards microblogging first and foremost. I've tried Mastodon, but after many years on Friendica and Hubzilla. And this series of comments took me four or five hours to write and largely re-write, and I touch-type on a full-size hardware keyboard. That's nothing in comparison with how long it takes me to describe an image, but still.
Thus, I don't post that much anyway. And I only repeat (= boost) what I really want my own contacts to see.
On top of that, again, I don't post about real life. This channel is not about real life.
Even then, I know the Fediverse is a minefield. At the very least, I'm treading on eggs almost whenever I post something or comment on something.
I can't possibly know all instances of me being racist or sexist or misogynist or homophobic or transphobic or even only ableist. And believe me, I know that it's impossible for me to describe my own images in a way that isn't ableist to someone. The only way I don't have to throw some group of disabled Fediverse users in front of the bus when describing my images is by not posting the images in the first place and then not mentioning that I could have posted an image.
In fact, chances are that the portraits of my little in-world sister @Juno Rowland I want to post on my specialist OpenSim image channel @Jupiter Rowland's (streams) outlet are disturbingly sexist, maybe enough so to either call for the "moderation" on the (streams) instance to take action or, if that fails, have the whole instance Fediblocked. Every single last one of them with no exception. Or if not all of them, then at least some of the outfits she wears. How am I supposed to know beforehand?
Or maybe I'm racist already for only having white avatars. Never mind that having a Black avatar as a white user is every bit as bad as Blackfacing, and never mind the OpenSim doesn't even provide the means to build convincing Black avatars in the first place.
Considering all this, it doesn't even matter that I've delegated posting portraits, memes and the like to two separate (streams) channels rather than doing it on Hubzilla because (streams) can make Mastodon blank sensitive images out, and Hubzilla can't. It doesn't matter that I've done so to be more inclusive towards people who are easily triggered by certain visual content such as eye contact.
(That's me trying to be intersectional here. You've written yourself this is not only about Black people.)

streams.elsmussols.netJupiter Rowland's (streams) outletAn avatar roaming the decentralised and federated 3-D virtual worlds based on OpenSimulator, a free and open-source server-side re-implementation of Second Life. Mostly talking about OpenSim, sometimes about other virtual worlds, occasionally about the Fediverse beyond Mastodon. No, the Fediverse is not only Mastodon.
Even if you see me on Mastodon, I'm not on Mastodon myself. I'm on an instance of what can be found in [url=https://codeberg.org/streams/streams]the streams repository[/url] which has nothing to do with Mastodon. In fact, it's more advanced and more powerful than Mastodon.
I regularly write posts with way more than 500 characters. If that disturbs you, block me now, but don't complain. I'm not on Mastodon, I don't have a character limit here.
I rather give too many content warnings than too few. But I have absolutely no means of blanking out pictures for Mastodon users.
I always describe my images, no matter how long it takes. My posts with image descriptions tend to be my longest. Don't go looking for my image descriptions in the alt-text; they're always in the post text which is always hidden behind a content warning due to being over 500 characters long.
If you follow me, and I "follow" you back, I don't actually follow you and receive your posts. Unless you've got something to say that's interesting to me within the scope of this channel, or I know you from OpenSim, I'll most likely deny you the permission to send me your posts. I only "follow" you back because (streams) requires me to do that to allow you to follow me. But I do let you send me your comments and direct messages. If you boost a lot of uninteresting stuff, I'll block you boosts.
My "birthday" isn't my actual birthday but my rezday. My first avatar has been around since that day.
If you happen to know German, maybe my "homepage" is something for you, a blog which, much like this channel, is about OpenSim and generally virtual worlds.

First of all, I'm very selective about whose posts I allow in my stream (= Hubzilla lingo for timeline). See, this is not my personal, general-purpose Fediverse outlet. This Hubzilla channel specialises in two topics. The primary topic is OpenSimulator in particular and sometimes 3-D virtual worlds more generally. The secondary topic is the Fediverse beyond Mastodon.
Real life has no room on this channel. Politics have no room on this channel. Real-life social issues have no room on this channel. Not in my posts, not in anyone else's posts either.
And truth be told, of my over 500 contacts, some 85% have no permission to send me posts. I don't want my stream to be cluttered with 99% uninteresting cruft.
Unlike Mastodon, Hubzilla counts and lists all unread messages, and you can open them, thread by thread. I don't want to sit down behind my computer and wade through tons of completely uninteresting posts and comments before I get to the first interesting one, and then wade through tons more of completely uninteresting posts and comments before I get to the next interesting one. That's why I've denied them the permission to send me their posts.
Almost all of them are white cis-het males, by the way.
As for the other 15%, if their off-topic posts get out of hand, I put word filters into action. Hubzilla has optional individual word filters per contact. Same if they boost too much.
Sure, I could connect to a lot more Black users. But that'd be dishonest. Unless they post about OpenSim or about the Fediverse beyond Mastodon, all they've got to say is cruft that'll clutter my stream. So to keep my stream from being cluttered, I'd have to deny them the permission to send me any posts.
Even if they did post about OpenSim or about the Fediverse beyond Mastodon, I might use per-contact filters to filter out as many off-topic posts as possible. And I'd very likely also filter out all their boosts, like I filter out the boosts from some of the remaining 15%.

Hi, I'm angel. I'm apart of a small team of users from SL who have a big vision for creating our own worlds! After 16+ years in SL, it' finally time to put my life's work to good use. Balance is needing to be restored to the community of virtual worlds. Greed has unfortunately drained so much life from the biggest grid in the metaverse. We need to save our community, and put it back in the hands of the people! #opensim #hypergrid

Sechstens und letztens, und davon dürfte hier annähernd niemand je gehört haben: OpenSimulator. Eine freie, quelloffene Serverplattform für dezentrale, föderierte virtuelle Welten auf der Basis weitgehend derselben Technologie wie Second Life. Jetzt kommt's: Das ist kein spinnertes Zukunftsprojekt, sondern seit Januar 2007 im Einsatz. Und spätestens mit dem Start des OSgrid, des ersten öffentlichen OpenSim-Grid, im Sommer 2007 wird im Zusammenhang mit OpenSim auch regular der Begriff "Metaverse" verwendet. Seit 14 Jahren, bevor Zuckerberg ihn für sich beansprucht hat.
Decentraland behauptet ja, das erste dezentrale Metaverse zu sein. Tatsächlich ist an Decentraland nur dezentral, daß es eine eigene Kryptowährung hat. Die übrigens immer noch auf der Ethereum-Blockchain läuft, aber egal. OpenSim ist tatsächlich dezentral mit lauter unabhängigen Instanzen, sogenannten Grids. Und es ist föderiert: Du kannst einen Grid in einem Avatar haben und damit andere Grids besuchen.
Inzwischen gibt es tausende große und kleine Grids, weil sich im Prinzip jeder sein eigenes aufsetzen kann. Das reicht von winzigen persönlichen Grids bis hin zu den Giganten OSgrid und Wolf Territories, die beide jeweils mehr Landmasse haben als Second Life. Allerdings steckt dahinter nur ein vierköpfiges "Team", von dem auch nur einer wirklich codet und der Rest sich nicht um Publicity kümmert. Auch die Community kümmert sich nicht darum, OpenSim zu bewerben.
Und so hat OpenSim zwar einen 17jährigen Erfahrungsschatz mit dezentralen virtuellen Welten und einen 16jährigen mit föderierten, aber die ganzen Open-Metaverse-Bestrebungen und -Projekte werden davon nie erfahren und genauso auf die Nase fallen wie die, die nichts von Second Life lernen.
