i added function osGetEnvironmentVariable(string key) so i could store secret in env instead of hard-coding script :)

we don't have a built-in RFC HMAC so we can use a non-standard sig like in the example below or make osHMAC() function (i already did that if you want the code lemme know)

we use a unix timestamp to thwart off replays

i'm setting env var in my opensim.service systemd unit file, you could do it a different way if you want

i set perms for osGetEnvironment, osAESEncrypt/To, os AESDecrypt/From to GRID_GOD (user level >= 200) - in ini- that should be a good idea, you can do as you wish

OpenSim/Region/ScriptEngine/Shared/Api/Implementation/OSSL_Api.cs:

public LSL_String osGetEnvironmentVariable(string key)
{
if(string.IsNullOrEmpty(key))
return LSL_String.Empty;

string? ret = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(key);

if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(ret))
{
return ret;
} else {
OSSLShoutError("osGetEnvironmentVariable: Failed to get environment variable!");
return LSL_String.Empty;
}

}

OpenSim/Region/ScriptEngine/Shared/Api/Interface/IOSSL_Api.cs:

//ApiDesc Get System Environment Variable (string key). Returns string.
LSL_String osGetEnvironmentVariable(string key);


Shared/Api/Runtime/OSSL_Stub.cs:

[MethodImpl(MethodImplOptions.AggressiveInlining)]
public LSL_String osGetEnvironmentVariable(string key)
{
return m_OSSL_Functions.osGetEnvironmentVariable(key);
}


config-include/osslEnable.ini
Allow_osGetEnvironmentVariable = "GRID_GOD,"
Allow_osAESEncrypt = "GRID_GOD,"
Allow_osAESEncryptTo = "GRID_GOD,"
Allow_osAESDecrypt = "GRID_GOD,"
Allow_osAESDecryptFrom = "GRID_GOD,"


/etc/systemd/system/opensim.service:
[Service]
Environment=MYBIGSECRET=FooYeah

script in prim:

default
{
state_entry()
{
}

touch(integer n)
{
// AES encryption with HMAC signing
string secret = osGetEnvironmentVariable("MYBIGSECRET");

// build payload
string msg = "a dime a dozen";

//avoid replay
string ts = (string)llGetUnixTime();

string plaintext = llList2Json(JSON_OBJECT, [
"msg", msg,
"ts", ts
]);
string ciphertext = osAESEncrypt(secret, plaintext);
// HMAC sig [not RFC HMAC - so it's vulnerable, would need to make osHMAC() func using System.Security.Cryptography
string sig = llSHA256String(ciphertext + "|" + ts + "|" + secret);

string payload = llList2Json(JSON_OBJECT, [
"data", ciphertext,
"ts", ts,
"sig", sig
]);

llOwnerSay("the secret: " + secret);
llOwnerSay("the payload: " + payload);

string decrypted = osAESDecrypt(secret,ciphertext);
llOwnerSay("decrypted: " + decrypted);
}
}


output:
[18:55] Object: the secret: FooYeah
[18:55] Object: the payload: {"data":"035BD37FF5EEBC778050625D0D11084A:ab3ab4619621ce8ece1259da3222c97c517641091b36bb674b777482e51dfe696d61009f8926cee430ebec377d3f05f2","ts":"1776563728","sig":"b233cf71cc3a03430b47061f00bfd1f781028af36b217eb95b58c5dbe9a6e481"}

IInvitation to Kim's birthday party on April 18, 2026 at 7 PM with DJ Cleopata, everyone is welcome for great music!!
The bouquet of flowers is on the table,and the cake and coffee are also very fresh.

I didn’t build the Cannabis Information Center to promote anything.

I built it because I lived through it.

Years ago, I was prescribed Neurontin for nerve pain. It became toxic in my system and I spent eight hours in a code blue room. After that, I made a decision to take a different path and began using CBD as part of my care.

For the past ten years, it has helped me manage neuropathic pain, calm my nervous system, and get through the nights.

My journey hasn’t been perfect. My latest MRI shows progression. MS doesn’t move in a straight line—it surges, it settles, and sometimes it overpowers what we use to manage it.

But I also know this: CBD helped me maintain stability and function for many years.

This space was created so others can learn for themselves.

OR...

Should freedom of expression, parody and creativity be allowed and even encouraged?
Or should it be blocked for all by the few or the one.
I have no drama in anyone blocking me, I'm an adult.
Use the vote you have, but both sides should have a say.

Come on over for a night of Music and Conversation we will have DJ Mystic Moonshine 5pm to 7 pm Gtid time Saturday April 18th Spinning Some of the best from the 50s to Today and After Mystic we will be having a Social Voice Chat at the lounge 7pm till??? so come on over and join us!!!

This is ToyBoy. We all know him as an active OpenSim user in OSW. He has many projects that inspire us, beautiful sims he invites us to, great events, technical support—what more can I say? A valiant champion of the OpenSim idea. Because of his diverse activities within Hypergrid, a certain troublemaker has rightfully caught his eye.

Now for the kicker: Dorena Verne, who occasionally posts political images with little captions. Yes, truly awful anarchist stuff from the wicked, wicked left-wing corner, ugh. Our eyes, like those of other users, are glued to these terrible images; we're paralyzed and can neither scroll on nor ignore the wicked Dorena, the power of a wicked witch.

What does Dorena actually do for OpenSim? Just offer several regions for HG visitors, hold at least one event per week. Or, yes, she recently posted a complete backup strategy for a grid under Linux.

Ridiculous!!!!

What's that compared to the sheer number of OpenSim-related posts from our highly esteemed ToyBoy? Just look at his profile; it would take you hours to take it all in!!

Yes, I'm that wicked Dorena, and I'm blushing with shame at ToyBoy's tremendous contributions to OpenSim!!

Okay, I hope you'll take this post with a grain of salt. :-)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Das ist ToyBoy. Wir kennen ihn alle als aktiven OpenSim user im OSW. Er hat viele Projekte, die uns begeistern, schöne SIM's in der er uns einlädt, tolle Events, technische Hilfen, was soll ich sagen. Ein wackerer Streiter für die OpenSim Idee. Aufgrund seiner vielfältigen Aktivitäten innerhalb des Hypergrids ist ihm rechtschaffend eine böse Userin im Auge.
Nun kommts: Dorena Verne, die hin und wieder auch mal politische Bilder mit kleinen Bilderkommentaren postet. Ja, wirklich ganz schlimmes anarchistisches Zeug aus der bösen, bösen linken Ecke, pfui. Die Augen, wie auch die anderer User kleben an diesen furchtbaren Bildern fest, Sie sind gelähmt und können weder weiterscrollen noch die böse Dorena ignorieren, die Macht einer bösen Hexe.
Was tut Dorena schon groß für OpenSim? Nur etliche Regionen für HG-Besucher anbieten, mindestens einmal die Woche ein Event. Oder, ja vor kurzen mal eine komplette Backupstrategie für ein Grid unter Linux gepostet.
Lächerlich!!!!
Was ist das schon gegen die Vielzahl an themenbezogenen OpenSim Beiträgen unseres hochgeschätzten ToyBoy? Schaut in sein Profil, ihr werdet Stunden brauchen diese Menge zu erfassen!!
Ja, ich bin diese böse Dorena und Schamesröte steigt mir ins Gesicht ob dieser gewaltigen Einsätze von Toyboy für OpenSim!!
Ok, hoffe ihr seht diesen Beitrag mit etwas Humor. :-)

We had our fun.

Dorena was kept very busy with it, and she had a pleasant way to spend the day, seems she loves drama!
I am not particularly impressed by the threatening messages regarding legal action that I received. She has no case.

Unfortunately, knowing Dorena, all of this will not mean that she stops making nonsensical political statements on our OpenSim platform. It seems she is already busy again with an alt account, Sylvester.

My actions were intended to make clear that many people on this platform are completely fed up with her nonsense.
Who knows, maybe she will mend her ways someday ;)

I will follow Bink Draconia her advise and delete the post I did and wish you all a nice day.

Best of Bad Event Ideas: #1001
The Best At Tough-Guy Talk

Listen up, Mr. Smell-fungi and Ms. Mun-dungi. We’re having a “Best At Tough-Guy Talk” event, and we need more losers like you to attend. You know, the kind of person who shoots someone in a dream and wakes up to apologize. Someone who is as scary as a ruthless spelling bee contender. People who think they are a main character but are only an extra their own movie. You know the kind. Bald coot, bananaquit, leech-eating, plain-wandering stinkbirds. So come on, Mr. and Ms. Niny-Hammer of Noodles. Join all the other barbers, tailors, panders and procurers, parasites, and lick-spittles for an evening of real tough talk. Or are you just a facetious pettifogger?

Why is The Best At Tough-Guy Talk a bad event idea? Some people will take the insults seriously, like they do with OSW posts.
