Ulster Fry

"An Ulster fry is a traditional Northern Irish breakfast, often served all day, featuring fried bacon, sausages, eggs, black/white pudding, tomatoes, and mushrooms. Key, defining elements that distinguish it from a full English breakfast are the inclusion of soda bread and potato farls (potato bread) fried until crisp."

There is some debate about the inclusion of baked beans. Traditionalists say no but modern Ulster Fry plates have them and I like them so I included them. There's an attribution notecard in the contents and this beautiful plate can be found in Doyle's Coffee House (it used to be a pub in pervious incarnations of the build but we have a fair few pubs:)

Free to copy/buy for 0.

We also have some lovely scones with clotted cream and black current jam and fresh hot cross buns with whipped butter which some folks enjoy for the Easter week and weekend:)

Working on a V8 (version 8) of the OpenSIM ONLINE WEATHER SYSTEM. On this version, just adding an EEP addon. So if it`s raining on ur region, it inserts automatically an cloudy/rainy EEP sky on your region - owner no longer need be online to change it. (working with 4 variations - Total clear sky, partial cloudy sky, cloudy/raining/snowing sky and foggy sky. Still running some tests and also checking if it will work at least on the big grids. Any ideas of feedback how the weather system could be, post here.

Es war ein sehr interessanter Austausch und ich danke Euch allen, i will click on lock comments now and see if this closes the topic. Thank you for the experience of moderation a discussion on this website.
I need time now to reflect if the time invested did lead to anything making things better.

Basic Land Hygiene And Griefer Protection
1. Please add to or offer corrections to this list.
2. Consider giving this list, or one like it, to anyone renting land from you.
3. Send this link to people you think might want to read these tips:
https://opensimworld.com/post/123825?msgSuccess=Posted

Pay attention because there will be a quiz.
1. Set Edit Terrain (Everyone) to Off
2. Set Object Creation to group only. (A private land management group for example)
3. Set Object Entry to Off
4. Set Scripts to Off
5. Set Safe mode (no damage)
6. Set No Push (this does not completely disable pushes, but it makes them less powerful)
7. Set your movelock to make yourself harder to push around. In Firestorm, this is CTRL+ALT+P.
8. The protection from any pushing is to "sit".
9. Set access to group only, or to yourself and a designated approved access list. (Kick out and ban griefers from the group)
10. Set No Fly (makes it harder for griefers to get around quickly)
11. Set Teleport routing to a specific spot (keeps griefers from being able to dodge by local teleporting)
12. Set Object Return to the shortest possible time
13. Turn off avatar visibility in About Land > Options (so griefers outside your parcel can't see you)
14. Do not respond to taunts or threats. REMAIN SILENT!
15. Mute (Block) each griefer
16. Turn off visibility of particles (CTRL_SHIFT_ALT_=)
17. Protect yourself from graphics crashers by limiting the avatar complexity your viewer can render, in Preferences > Graphics. Anything lower than "unlimited" will be fine.
18. Set your preferences to not render media or play sounds attached to other avatars.

The Quiz: What is wrong with the land settings shown in the picture?

As many people know... I am the cat's meow. I have 2 cats, dash & applejack, which I adopted from a shelter. They were found in the sewer drain. Someone tried to drown them? I don't know. But any way. They are very happy now living in my house. But aside from this and their many funny antics, I am announcing my return to the virtual worlds. Since the recovery was awesome, (and why wouldn't it be? I did it.), I now have most of my builds replaced. It is with great joy and fierce resolution that I have decided to tear down the wizardry shop again. ( I tore it down once and let Safine sell the magic huds for me.) But it came back, when I recovered the oars. This time I will sink the land under water and decimate the trees and shrubbery, plus I will obliterate the vines and flowers. This should leave nothing, but water. I do plan to leave the wizards house, since it is so full of magic, the wizards shack, and of course the school of magical education and generalized debauchery. I am deeply saddened to hear of the heartfelt tragedy osgrid is going through losing all their inventory... I know many of you will miss the early prim built furniture if only for it's historical sentiment. Many lands people owned but died after renting a server for 50 years will be disappeared from osgrid. Many people who died will be removed from the databases. Are you one of them? Boo! So anyways, as you may have surmised from my initial scribery on the wall of html everything is copacetic. Karma says what goes around comes around, a good reason to strap a 24 pack of charmin around your hiney. Cheers!

I WANT TO REITERATE SOMETHING.

REGION WILL BE BACK UP LATER TODAY

SOMETIMES PEOPLE LIKE TO LIVE ON THE EDGE INCUDING ME, I LOVE DG. SOMETIMES WHEN YOU LIVE ON THE EDGE AND UPDATE DG WITH BETAS YOU RUN INTO ISSUES. THE GRID HAD LOADING ISSUES ALONG WITH LOADING OAR ONTO THIS REGION.

IT TURNS OUT THE ISSUE WITH GETTING THE REGION BACK WAS A CORRUPTED OAR. I HAVE ROLLED BACK TO A STABLE VERSION AND HOPEFULLY WILL NOW BE ABLE TO DO SYSTEM WIDE BACKUPS AND SHOULD HAVE NO MORE LOADING REGION ISSUES.

I ALSO WANT TO THANK FRED FOR ALL HIS HARD WORK!

REGION IS OFFLINE FOR NOW

If you have land in this region you will have go and reclaim it once its back online. you will have to re build.

I am so sorry this happend, not sure how but an oar got on the region and erased what was there.

And before anyone asks about recent backups, due to issues with dream grid we cant do any current backups until its fixed. once we get things settles, I will do a system wide backup as well as oars.

A PEICE OF ADVICE, DONT LIVE ON THE EDGE LIKE US AND TRY BETAS LOL THEY ARE CALLED BETAS FOR A REASON, STICK WITH THE CURRENT VERSION FRED SAYS IS STABLE.

here we are. another collaborative project that opensim allows.
starting from a fact that could pass for a joke we have a group and a region.
to participate it's simple. you must be the creator of the object and give it full perm.
the region is provided to us by hyacinthe admin of https://groovyverse.com/.
you need the group to rez.
the osw group : https://opensimworld.com/groups/1078
there is no desire for competition or even provocation.
let's say that it is the product of amateur creators but in a less standardized way

what if.....
we spent our time focusing on our similarities
instead of our differences?

I have seen many discussions here become very toxic recently because people are focused on how we are all different. I love how we all are different, but we also have some common similarities; the most obvious is that we are all people behind the pixels.

Sometimes in life and Opensim, it is much easier to tear a person down than to build them up. Let's make the extra effort and support eachother!

This is our Opensim.....lets take pride in it!

what if.....
we spent our time focusing on our similarities
instead of our differences?

My sweet elderly neighbor had a long visit with me. She talked about her life and things She has done. She used to work for MTV in New York and met a lot of famous people. But She is very wise and a great friend. Today She told me that when you feel like things are getting to you just to remember, it's up to you if you let them. You don't have to. You never have to give in to bad people or even get upset by them. So when people on the internet make you angry, it's b/c you choose to let them. You read what they wrote and decided to have that particular reaction to their typed writing. You don't have to do that. It's like Dr. Wayne Dyer says, "Some people have a remote control on their shirt sleeve, they are having a great day or whatever, and someone comes in and takes the remote and pushes their buttons. Someone else controls them. Where previously they were happy and having a great day, now they are angry and upset. So don't let people take your control."

*** FLORA - AUGUST 14th 2024 NEW RELEASE***
GIANT SEQUOIA TREES PACK (Sequoiadendron giganteum), from Californian forests to your SIM!
AVAILABLE AT FOREST AREA, BOX 01!
01 prim mesh trees - 03 different models - Animated smooth leaves.. and seasonal textures included!
And another heads up. something I`m going to do from now on,I will be offering as well "suggestions" like a big cluster of trees, different sizes and rotations, for both flat area or slopes. I noticed many here rez trees and shift copy others and it doens`t look good (looks like Clones from Starwars lolol).I bet many will enjoy that idea.

This 1 is for you and me, living out our dreams!
And We are All right where we should be!
With our arms out wide, I Open my Eyes...
and now all I want to see...
Is a sky full of Lighters!

By the time you hear this I will have already spiraled up
I would never do nothing to let you cowards fuck my world up
If I was you I would duck, or get struck, like lightning,
Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up, point 'em skyward uh
Had a dream, I was king, I woke up, still king.

'Til nobody else even fucking feels me, 'til it kills me

Feel free, but from now on I'm refusing to ever give up
Only thing I ever gave up's using no more excuses
Excuse me if my head is too big for this building

I love it when I tell 'em shove it
'Cause it wasn't that, long ago when Leo sat, flustered lacked luster
'Cause he couldn't cut mustard, muster up, nothing
Brain fuzzy, 'cause he's buzzin', woke up from that buzzin'
Now you wonder why he does it, how he does it
Wasn't 'cause he had buzzards circlin' around his head
Waiting for him to drop dead, was it?
Or was it 'cause them bitches wrote him off
Little hussy ass, scuzzes, fuck it, guess it doesn't matter now, does it
What difference it make?
What it take to get it through your thick skulls
That this ain't some bullshit
People don't usually come back this way
From a place that was dark as I was in
Just to get to this place
Now let these words be like a switch blade to a hater's ribcage
And let it be known that from this day forward
I wanna just say thanks 'cause your hate is what gave me the strength
So let 'em Bics raise 'cause I came with 5'9" but I feel like I'm 6'8″!

I cried plenty tears, my daddy got a bad back
So it's only right that I write 'til he can march right into that post office and tell 'em to hang it up

I'll stop when I'm at the very top
You shitted on me on your way up
It's 'bout to be a scary drop

Every hour, happy hour now
Life is wacky now

Now I'm just the cat's meow, ow
Classic cow, always down for the catchweight like Pacquiao
Ya'll are doomed
I remember when T-Pain ain't wanna work with me
My car starts itself, parks itself and autotunes
'Cause now I'm in the Aston
I went from having my city locked up
To getting treated like Kwame Kilpatrick
And now I'm fantastic
Compared to a weed high

Y'all bugging out like Wendy Williams staring at a beehive
And how real is that
I remember signing my first deal and now I'm the second best, I can deal with that
Now Bruno can show his ass, without the MTV awards gag...

You and I know what it's like to be kicked down
Forced to fight
But tonight, we're alright
So hold up your lights
Let it shine
'Cause, this one's for you and me, living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
With my arms out wide, I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters

This post is dedicated to those who refuse to stand idle and take everyone's shit. Those who fight for what is right and what they believe in. Those who do their best to enact positive change and enlightenment in the face of adversity. Yes i posted lyrics from a song...a very inspirational song with a positive message. Now all i want to see...is a sky full of Lighters!

I’ve crafted this article to assist individuals eager to upload their models to Opensimulator but unsure of where to begin. This guide aims to direct you toward exceptional resources, making the process much more accessible.

For those who still aren't sure. (And if you don't mind, don't publish your region)

Second Life and OpenSim are not traditionally classified as "games" in the way titles like World of Warcraft or Fortnite are. Instead, they are often described as virtual worlds or metaverses. Here's an explanation:

Lack of Predetermined Objectives: Unlike many games that have specific objectives, missions, or end goals, Second Life and OpenSim don't offer specific tasks for players. Users decide what they want to do, whether it's socializing, building, trading, or exploring.

Creation and Customization: In both platforms, users can create almost anything, from virtual structures to clothing and art. This level of creative freedom is broader than in most traditional games.

Real Economy: Both Second Life (with its Linden Dollar, L$) and certain OpenSim grids have their own economies and currencies, which in some cases can be exchanged for real money.

Social Interaction: A major draw for many users of both platforms is social interaction, similar to a chat room or social media platform, but in a 3D environment.

Diverse Uses: There are various reasons why people use these platforms, from simple social interaction to business, education, training, simulations, and other purposes unrelated to gaming.

However, although they aren't games in the traditional sense, some users might participate in game-like activities within these virtual worlds or set up regions and environments with game-like objectives.

In essence, both Second Life and OpenSim are more like expansive 3D social platforms or metaverses than traditional games.


----------


Second Life y OpenSim no se clasifican tradicionalmente como "juegos" de la manera que lo hacen títulos como World of Warcraft o Fortnite. En su lugar, a menudo se describen como mundos virtuales o metaversos. A continuación, una explicación:

Falta de Objetivos Predeterminados: A diferencia de muchos juegos que tienen objetivos específicos, misiones o metas finales, Second Life y OpenSim no ofrecen tareas específicas para los jugadores. Los usuarios deciden qué quieren hacer, ya sea socializar, construir, comerciar o explorar.

Creación y Personalización: En ambas plataformas, los usuarios pueden crear casi cualquier cosa, desde estructuras virtuales hasta ropa y arte. Este nivel de libertad creativa es más amplio que en la mayoría de los juegos tradicionales.

Economía Real: Tanto Second Life (con su Linden Dollar, L$) como ciertas redes de OpenSim tienen sus propias economías y monedas, que en algunos casos pueden ser intercambiadas por dinero real.

Interacción Social: Un gran atractivo para muchos usuarios de ambas plataformas es la interacción social, similar a una sala de chat o plataforma de redes sociales, pero en un entorno 3D.

Usos Diversos: Hay diversas razones por las que la gente usa estas plataformas, desde la simple interacción social hasta negocios, educación, capacitación, simulaciones y otros propósitos no relacionados con los juegos.

Sin embargo, aunque no son juegos en el sentido tradicional, algunos usuarios pueden participar en actividades tipo juego dentro de estos mundos virtuales, o establecer regiones y entornos con objetivos similares a los de un juego.

En esencia, tanto Second Life como OpenSim son más como plataformas sociales 3D expansivas o metaversos que juegos tradicionales.

what do you think is the "standard" height for an avatar? I've noticed that in SL the basic avatars, the ones they give you when you first register, are about 1.75 meters tall or a little taller or a little shorter.

Even the Shapes of the various body and head creators provide shapes of about 1.90 maximum if I remember correctly.

Many users raise their avatars even beyond 2 meters in height reaching even up to 2.40 meters which is really a lot.

Tall avatars, always look slimmer and more defined, but they are often "bulky," not properly seated for example on a chair because they pierce the coffee table for example, or even in vehicles a foot comes out of the helicopter another example.

so what is the average and correct height for a vatar, regardless of what you may like personally, because then rightly everyone makes the shape as they prefer, but the standard heights the ones that should be corect, in your opinion what are they?

A store for Ruth outfits I have put together using Linda Kellie, Damien Fate, Fleep grid layers and some Remake shoes. During war time and the depression there was a push for people to make do with what they had, reuse it or remake it. This store is based on that philosophy and is my Os version. Some items are original form and others I have textured myself and so I have called the store MAKE DO AND MEND! hop://login.osgrid.org/Tropicana%20Lakes/600/286/70

OH MY!
Those sinfully red vinyl pants. Oh my! Those dangerously spiked heels. Oh my! That provocatively lifted top. Oh my! That barely there bra... OH MY!

oh HELLO. Oh my.

I am sorry my grid was down so long. I broke an ankle, almost died from gangrene, and lost a leg. I simply wasn't home for awhile, months in hospital. But I am back, and Rebelworld, and it's lands, including the 3 posted here live. lol ;) hugs n high 5's, good karma. and prayers for everyone.

(update) experiencing some bumps, but it WILL be back up as fast as I can fix the loopback, and address mess from where my internet provider has been changed. :)

(update 2) On hold with my ISP. Having [port-forward issues. Can't get in my router. I am waiting to get the info currently to access to manually port forward. I am sorry if you cannot access my world for a little while.

(update 3) A friend who has land, and an avatar on my server got on! :D If anyone not on my server gets on? PLEASE let me know? hugs n high 5's :)

Today I’m celebrating my 39th birthday, and from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m, opensim time, I’ll be opening my home to anyone who wants to celebrate with me, accompanied by a variety of hit songs across different genres.

Nah und doch so fern

Mitten im Fluss der tausend Schritte,
wo jeder eilt und keiner bleibt,
steh ich zwischen all den Stimmen,
die der Wind vorübertreibt.

Gesichter ziehen lautlos weiter,
ein kurzer Blick, dann schon vorbei.
So viele Menschen, so viel Leben –
und doch fühlt sich die Seele frei...
nein, eher einsam, ungehört,
als hätte Zeit das Herz betört.

Wie oft berühren sich die Wege,
doch niemals wirklich Blick und Sinn.
Wir laufen dicht aneinander vorbei
und tragen Welten tief in uns drin.
Ich sehne mich nach einem Lächeln,
das nicht aus Höflichkeit entsteht.

Nach Worten, die nicht flüchtig klingen,
weil jemand wirklich neben mir steht.
Nicht die Nähe zweier Körper,
sondern die, die Herzen kennt.

Ein Augenblick, der leise sagt:
"Ich sehe dich."
Und der uns Menschen wieder Menschen nennt.
Vielleicht beginnt die große Veränderung
gar nicht mit lauten Reden oder Macht.
Vielleicht genügt ein offenes Herz,
das einem anderen entgegenlacht.
...................................................................................................
Close, Yet So Far Away
In the river of a thousand footsteps,
where everyone moves and no one stays,
I stand among the countless voices
that drift away into the haze.

Faces pass like fleeting shadows,
a glance that fades before it's found.
So many people all around me,
yet silence is the loudest sound.
How often do our pathways cross,
while hearts remain unknown inside.

We walk so close to one another,
with unseen worlds we choose to hide.
I long for more than passing kindness,
more than words that disappear.

I long for someone truly listening,
for someone willing to draw near.
Not simply closeness of our bodies,
but the kind the soul can feel.

A quiet moment softly whispering,
"I see you."
A truth so simple, yet so real.
Perhaps the world begins to change
not through power, noise, or fame.
Perhaps it starts when one heart smiles
and gently calls another's name.

As of today, I have closed all of my Sims; to enter them, you must go through THE JUNCTION MALL. The reason being I have been working hard on my Junction 2 to only sit and watch what happened on Junction 2 yesterday after I opened it. So instead of banning grids when 1 person has caused the damage, I will remove the person of fault, and believe me, I know all about making alts and other grids; I know all about it. But this is my way. So any sim of mine you like to enter, you will all land here and go through the doors. Have a sweet day.

Like this post to have your Opensimworld name added to the digital THANK YOU card we are making for Linda Kellie TRIBUTE.

I need HELP! From my blog:
The Jester is in! The lights are on, the NPCs STAGED; just itching to flip the switch... the switch that tickles your inner child until guffaws echo through the metaverse with the cacophony of a tropical maelstrom!

In this TRIBUTE to 'THE LEGEND' We will shatter your sense of fashion and test your funny bone to its limits!

We have not crowned this TRIBULATION yet, and here is the secret: we cannot, not alone. Linda Kellie gave freely; Dismayland honors her by asking the same of you. We need your poison, your love, your wreckage. Memorabilia. Down-cycled artifacts. Streams. Talent. Even prayer. The scene you see above is hungry. It wants your upcycles. It wants your voice. It wants your pain dressed as celebration. Because that is what we are doing here: giving turpitude a halo, wrapping cruelty in gratitude, forcing joy through the pedagogy of suffering until it comes out the other side as something true.

'The Ghost of Linda Kellie' sanctioned this message of conscription. CHIP IN. STREAM. UP-CYCLE. The Jester is watching. Apathy cloaked as virtue never survives! PLEASE GIVE if you can.

A gentle reminder to the self-appointed critics of the metaverse:

When you visit a curated experience and leave a one star review because you could not follow the rules, the theme or the personal boundaries set by the sysop, you are not exposing a flaw in the build. You are exposing YOURSELF.

Dismayland works like a carnival ride. You must be this tall to enter. This is not a suggestion. This is not negotiable. This is not a personal attack on your creative choices. It is a sign on a gate; read it.

Dismayland has height restrictions. It has had them. The compliance system has been OFFLINE for TWO WEEKS and people are STILL offended by the concept of it. That is remarkable. The gate does not even have teeth right now and the outrage is fully operational.

YOU READ THAT RIGHT ... the GATE has been down and these ORACLES of Wisdom never even bothered to check, no need to mention names, their self indictment is already on the wall.

This is the beauty of themed experiences; they are not for everyone and they are not supposed to be. If the child gate offends you, congratulations; it is working exactly as designed. Dismayland is a demusement park. The clue is in the name. The misery is the point. THE INCONVENIENCE IS THE ART.

As a bonus feature, the same system that checks your height also has opinions about poorly imported stolen Second Life meshes, that is an intriguing and welcome side effect. Dismayland enforces restrictions fairly as part of the user experience.

One star because you "dislike the policy" is not a review. It is a confession. One star because "the region recognized your self entitlement and processed you" is far more truthful and entertaining.

We thank you for your contribution to the experience. Your reaction has been noted, cataloged, and will be used as evidence that we are doing something right.

DISMAYLAND SECURITY IS DOWN until the MAIN LK EVENT (TBA)
At that time: COSTUME MANAGEMENT and ENFORCEMENT goes into effect.
I promise... that will end the complaints about the HEIGHT SCANNER... Muah ha ha ha ha ha!

Test results are in: Firestorm 7.2.4 does take quite a dip in graphics performance in comparison to 7.2.3.

You may want to skip it and wait for 7.2.5 or dare to try the 7.2.5 nightlies if you want or need some of Firestorm 7.2.4's improvements.

OSGRID IS BACK UP & RUNNING AGAIN! WOOOOOOOT! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

EVERYTHING IS IN TACT, TOO! :D

THANK YOU DAN! :D

NOW LET'S PARTY UP EVERYONE! :D

HUGGIEZ ALL AROUND! :D

Ensemble is now complete at release candidate 1.

The LSL and PHP scripts are all available in the script library at https://opensimworld.com/library?view=167 and the full manual is available at https://www.glenysbieler.com/ensemble/ in word, pdf, and web view.

The HUD itself can be made using the LSL scripts - but a copy is also available pre-built in my store at Sub-Version Mall (https://opensimworld.com/hop/93827). I havent yet put a teleport up at the landing point for the Ensemble store (and it is "in progress") but the hud is available to obtain there.

Please feel free to use the provided hosting - or use the PHP scripts in the scripts library to host yourself.

Feel free to report any bugs - but no "support" is guaranteed (but ofc I will always try and help).

HG SAFARI just got to try this out today and NOW the AXIS version is in the "script area" of this website. Now you can have a conversation or even design a personality to go with your NPC.

Schade das viele hier das nicht wahrhaben wollen und glauben man kann sich in virtuellen Welten diesen Wahnsinn entziehen. Glaubt, was ihr wollt, aber lasst mich hier meine Überzeugung und auch meine Meinung kundzutun. Man muss mich nicht lesen, wenn man nicht will. Aber mich und meine entsprechenden Beiträge hier zu bekämpfen, rückt euch ziemlich nahe in die Richtung, welches mein Bild aufzeigt. Schönen Tag noch.

It's a shame that many here refuse to accept this and believe they can escape this madness in virtual worlds. Believe what you want, but let me express my conviction and my opinion here. You don't have to read me if you don't want to. But attacking me and my posts here will bring you pretty close to the direction I'm painting. Have a nice day.

To both Colonial Navy and the Pirates that ravage Utopia seas.

Utopia Sky Grid is changing; the management that controls our grid have determined that effective January 1, 2026 they will block Hypergrid travels. This will affect both inbound and outbound travelers.So if you have a region in Utopia Sky Grid, best ask for an OAR before January 2026.

What will that do to our sea battle? Are you by chance considering joining the sea battles? We will be continuing our battles while evaluating how this change effects our battles before deciding if we must change grids since that takes a lot of work after the move before we can start up battles again.

In the interim, if you are a Hypergrid traveler then it will be necessary for you to create an avatar on Utopia Skye grid to be able to join the battles we have.

Clothing, ships and lessons will be available for regular players in Utopia Battle Group for free.
