A little sneak preview of something I'm working on on a region not yet ready to showcase. Focail na mban means women's words in Irish.

Women’s Words is in the works to put Irish women writers into the spotlight; a spotlight that has too long been occupied by Irish men. The goal of focail na mban is to explore contemporary women's writing in Ireland through a diverse intersectional lens. The shop will feature different writers in rotation and offer a deep dive into their lives and work.

Happy International Women's Day!

It’s a night of jazz, a night of rhythm, a night to remember, Fri., March 7th at 6:00 PM grid time. And taking center stage is none other than DJ Rosa Alekseev, ready to give you a performance like no other! Come as you are or dress in costume!

Honored to be featured in the Winter 2025 edition of Virtual Education Journal along with @CherryManga and others. There are several great articles, including an interview with Lone Wolf and Xenon Darrow of Wolf Territories Grid, and one on the Opensim Worlds Fair which goes through March 31st.

You can read the Journal here: https://virtualeducationjournal.com/previous-issues/

You can get info on the Fair here: https://www.opensimworldsfair.com/

The first issue of 2025 is out, the Winter Issue of Virtual Education Journal! The Journal (VEJ) was mainly a Second Life Publication, but the new Editors decided to expand into many different virtual platforms including OpenSim. Which is great for us. Check it out here. FYI, the summer edition is going to be all about OpenSim, so if you want to write an article go to the back page of the journal, all of the submission info is there. https://virtualeducationjournal.com/

Remove objects from your inventory that have the same name, keeping the object with the last date.
Delete Duplicates in opensim database

DELETE ii1
FROM
inventoryitems ii1
INNER JOIN (
SELECT
inventoryName,
MAX(creationDate) AS max_creation_date
FROM
inventoryitems
GROUP BY
inventoryName
) ii2 ON ii1.inventoryName = ii2.inventoryName AND ii1.creationDate < ii2.max_creation_date;

Please backup your inventory first!!! Just in case you are not happy with the results. It really will do what it says. However, there is a case where a person has merged their inventory multiple times and duplicates have the same creation date. In that case the script would leave those duplicates. Be sure to write down the size of your inventory when you start, and note the size after you run the script.
