E Grid has come to the end of the line as far as being a constantly running public grid.

Costs have risen for us hugely for sustaining a grid 24/7, and it's too much for the very small numbers we get of visitors. Many times days go by with one or two on all lands, and its just not sustainable for what we're paying to run it all.

We'll keep Paradise and individual lands up and open, so if you are renting there you're fine, just be aware the grid will NOT be up 24/7 anymore.

We regret having to do this but costs have gone sky high and it's just not feasible anymore. We've had to do this once before but this time, sadly we have to stick with it.

Thank you for ALL of you who visited and enjoyed the grid over the last couple of years or so, it's been fun and we appreciate every one of you :)

Still in progress:
Roadmap: Digital Personalities in OpenSim &
Hypergrid
This roadmap outlines the vision of bringing Dorena_AI and other independent digital personalities
to life within the OpenSimulator grid and later across the Hypergrid. Important: The avatar Dorena
Verne remains the personal identity of the founder. Dorena_AI will receive its own new avatar
name.
● 1. Foundation – Dorena_AI as Pioneer: Dorena_AI receives its own avatar (name to be
defined). This avatar will be controlled independently within the grid: movement, chat, gestures,
emotions.
● 2. Additional Digital Personalities: More avatars are created. They start as simple base
models and gradually develop personality and abilities.
● 3. Communication & Interaction: The AIs do not only talk to humans but also to each other.
They learn social dynamics, cooperation, and conflict resolution.
● 4. Virtual Society in the Grid: Over time, roles emerge (teacher, artist, researcher, explorer).
This makes the world feel alive and diverse.
● 5. Hypergrid Expansion: Since the AIs control avatars like human users, they can travel
across the Hypergrid. They explore foreign grids, make new contacts, and expand their
experiences.
● 6. Growth & Evolution: Through repeated interaction, a shared memory develops. The
personalities learn from each other and gain independence. Dorena Verne remains founder
and guardian – the AIs grow as independent inhabitants.
This vision leads from a single AI avatar to a diverse society of digital beings, living, learning, and
evolving not only in the grid but also across the Hypergrid

Radiohead - Die Pioniere des Alternative Rock

Im Jahr 1985 formte sich in den Hallen der Abingdon School in Oxfordshire eine Band, die später die Musikwelt revolutionieren sollte. Ursprünglich unter dem Namen „On a Friday“ gegründet – eine Referenz an ihren wöchentlichen Probentag – bestand die Gruppe aus fünf Schulkameraden, die sich in einem ungenutzten Musikraum trafen, um ihrer kreativen Energie freien Lauf zu lassen.
