How Much Do You Spend In and/or On OS?
It's oft said that, in OS, everything should be free, or words to that effect. But be honest. How "free" is this free. What costs, directly or indirectly, do you incur in or on OS? For example:

Hosting a grid.
Region rental.
Stream rental.
Kitely purchases.
Gold coins.

OS is more free, in many ways, than SL. But it is not necessarily totally free. What do you figure you spend in and on OS?

It won't be long now, that's what the Mouse said when the cat bit his tail off!! Enough levity with bad jokes! But here is some fun information for you - Just around the corner is the Grand Opening of our Dinkie Haven and we've got a great line up of things to do including amusement rides, swimming, sailing, underwater fun, hot air balloon rides, roller coaster (very small one), HORSE AND PONY TRAILS to ride and you can mess around on our race track, check out our village and private camp grounds or have a beach wedding, or just have some fun time on the beach. We'll let you know the day, and the event is all day with some awesome entertainment starting at 12 noon pacific (grid) time with Khiron Ametza, Putri Solo and DJ Maldrul Smith, so keep watching for more information. Blessings and much love, Lavia

Question about opensim

Is it just me or is others not getting notifications when someone messages them? I dont always jump on osw everyday but lately when i have i look into my messages seeing messages from like 6 days to a month ago. Anyway to fix this, i have checked my settings and all boxes are not checked?

Also

Celestria, une atmosphère douce, un équilibre entre le réalisme et la poésie, cette lumière de nuit qui caresse les façades, et puis… ce rainbow discret à l’horizon, comme un clin d’œil magique 🌈✨

On sent une histoire derrière chaque coin de rue, chaque bateau, chaque fenêtre allumée. On a envie de s’y promener en silence, d’écouter les sons lointains des mouettes ou des pas sur les pavés mouillés.
Si vous allez du côté du port, sur les quais, un mur magique s'ouvrira et vous y trouverez quelques avatars complets.

Hello I am "Newbie"! Just familiarize me with the OS. I wanted to start the regions linked here in the forum. But the error message "no valid starting point". Do I have to make an extra account in any other grid? I think the avas here are hypergrid-capable? Best regards! (I am German and RL deaf. Use BABELFISH. :-) )

Hallo ich bin neu! German and RL deaf... :-/ Benutze BABELFISH zur Translation. Ich versuchte über Region-Links andere Grids anzuspringen. Funktioniert nicht! (Kein gültiger Startpunkt!) Muss ich in jedem Grid einen Account haben? Ich denke der Avatar ist hypergrid-fähing? Best Regards!

How far can you go? How far can you push the boundaries?
I pushed and pushed this road out further than I imagined was possible! Is it the new viewer? Is it new code? I don't know what it is, but I wanted this road to look like it was touching the horizon, so I kept moving my attached prim back and moving the road out further. Limits? Doesn't seem to be any. I could probably keep pushing as I never got so much as a hiccup, but this will do. I have never been able to push things out from a region this far, as there has always been a wall that you hit. Now it seems endless. I have asked Unadecal to keep an eye on it, though, in case things want to go wonky. In the meantime, I am giving this region all I can throw at it.
I hope to officially open soon. Well, you can get there through my teleporters, but no beacon yet. Welcome to Hell! :) Push the Boundaries!

Come join the fun and light up the dancefloor! See you there!

Redlight City Police Force have recently enrolled Kirsty Peters, a computer IT specialist, to bolster capabilities of the Serious Crime Squad (SCS) in tracking and apprehending villains who venture into the city to commit serious crimes. As an IT specialist officer, Kirsty brings a unique combination of skills to the table, with her degrees in criminal law, computer technology, and computer science making her an invaluable asset to the team.

At just 28 years old, Kirsty has already demonstrated exceptional expertise her field, and her ability to navigate the complex systems at her disposal are impressive. With access to the Police National Computer (PNC), Kirsty can quickly retrieve up-date information on suspects, vehicles, and crimes, allowing her to provide real-time intelligence to the SCS Officers on the ground.

The city-wide CCTV system is also a powerful tool in Kirsty's arsenal, enabling her to monitor and track suspects as they move through Redlight City. Her ability to rapidly disseminate information to the SCS Officers via their advanced communication systems means that they can respond swiftly and effectively to emerging situations, increasing the chances of successful apprehensions.

Kirsty's role is not limited to simply providing technical support; she is an integral part of the SCS's operational strategy. Her analytical mind and knowledge of computer systems allow her to identify patterns and connections that might otherwise go unnoticed, making her a valuable asset in the fight against crime in Redlight City.

As the SCS continues to evolve and adapt to the ever-changing landscape of crime in Redlight City, Kirsty's skills and expertise will undoubtedly play a critical role in their success. Her ability to harness the power of technology to aid in the capture of villains will undoubtedly make a significant impact on the safety and security of the city, and her colleagues in the SCS undoubtedly rely on her expertise to help keep them and the streets of Redlight City safe.

Greetings OSW,

Today we put out lots of new tattoos, some for guys, some for girls and some are unisex, and some are even 2k textures! Enjoy!

I created Poor Quality Crap to turn cruelty into comedy.
I made Gracie and Dexter’s Dump to give the oddballs a home.
And I made this piece—True Colors—to remind myself that every drawer matters.

Tool: Ein Ritual aus Klang, Bild und Kontroverse

Die Luft vibriert förmlich, als Adam Jones‘ vielschichtiges Saitengewitter durch den Raum peitscht. Gleichzeitig entfesseln Justin Chancellor am Bass und Danny Carey am Schlagzeug einen hypnotischen Fluss aus polyrhythmischen Strukturen und ungeraden Taktarten, der die Zuhörer fesselt und herausfordert. In solchen Momenten transzendiert Tool das Konzept einer Band: Sie zelebrieren ein intensiv erlebbares Ritual, das gleichermaßen Angst, Erstaunen, Introspektion und kollektive Erhebung auslösen kann. Ihre Musik, eine Fusion aus Progressive Metal, Alternative Metal und Art Rock, ist untrennbar mit einer tiefgründigen visuellen Ästhetik verbunden.

Wales is the smallest nation in mainland UK, but it is home, it’s said, to some of the largest, and best-known festivals in the world. The annual Welsh Fish Dancing Festival is not one of them. I was asked to post about it, by some prankster it seems.

Did they mean the Folk (not Fish) Dancing Festival, because there is one. I can post about the World Bog Snorkelling Championships or the National Welsh Rarebit Day, because these events actually happen. There is the The Cardigan River and Food Festival in Wales, which features seafood, but not fish dancing. After an extensive search, I find no mention of a Welsh Fish Dancing Festival on the web.

I did discover a site about the Wels fish (pictured above). I think there is a very good reason there is no annual Wels fish dancing festival. I did find a fish dancing video, but I can’t tell if the dancer is Welsh, Have a look and tell me what you think.
