We just installed a new Age Check Verification System by Synch-hole Industries. It's in the police station behind the shopping mall at Welcome. Just follow the curvy path. Touch the kiosk and Oyoney Supreme will verify and mark your profile 'Age Verified'

CHAT IS COMING
(Just not here. Discord to the rescue!)

People who like to chat will soon have an option to do that on a Discord server cleverly named "What Are You Looking For".

It will, of course, have a channel for posting your requests and replies. It will ALSO have a CHAT, and other text, channels.

I'm looking for long-term members who have a good understanding of what this OSW group is intended to do, and who also have experience setting up a Discord server. What safety and moderation bots would be good to have? What text channels will be useful? For example, separate channels for types of items, like Avatar Components, Clothing, Landscaping, Tools & Scripts,? A pinned post of recommended shops for each kind of item?

I am putting together a team of people who will be closely involved in setting up the server. We will keep you informed via comments to this post, and we will consider your suggestions closely.

Is this a cool idea, or is this a cool idea?

The OSW group will continue to exist, where people will need to exercise self-restraint about chatting.

EDIT: I've revised the group guidelines to make it clear about how to use, and not use, group chat. Hope that helps.

Hot from the chat box...from me (plus some extra super informative notes!)

As much as I dislike it, I'm going to chat to end the chat. The group guidelines ask that you do not post asks in chat, and not answer them. If you post in the group, you can let people know by pasting just the link to that post in chat. And as likeable as we all are, the group is not a social hub. There is no good reason to use chat in the group. And there are several good reasons not to. First, the chat feature can not be turned off. And, if someone does chat, the group message mail box notice auto-annoyingly pops up over, and over, and over again. For me, and likely others, the only solution is to ignore the message notification, which means notifications about new post are not seen. Not good. Not good at all.

So, our group guideline ask that you do not use group chat. I started the group as an alternative to chat, and in the first month of our now two year existence, we became the largest and most active group on OSW. For many, our group is one of the best experiences we have on the site. We have a dedicated crew of helpers, including grid and shop owners. We are nice people. Please be nice back and don't use chat.

Chat in this group not only annoys people in general. It annoys me. I don't want to be annoyed. You don't want me to be annoyed. So, lets look at what annoying things have happened since yesterday.

Cyber posted about a problem. Harper provided a solution. Jamie, one of the group moderators, said that she had taken action so Cyber wouldn't see the group chats anymore. Any chat messages after that were not necessary.

And yet, now a day after all had been resolved, the chat was kept alive by further chat. The chat was about a person. No one in this group need chat about people -- especially when you are requested to chat not at all.

Jamie took steps to stop Cyber from getting chats. She removed him from the group. In the past, I've taken the same step when people consistently ignore the group guidelines, even after they have been reminded of them in a personal message. Please regard this as a personal message to those who haven't read the guidelines, and/or don't follow them.

The moderators and I can remove persistent chatters from the group when they ignore a private message to follow the guidelines. Hopefully, removing people from the group will not be necessary. And if someone is removed, all they need to do is private message us and say that:
1. They have read the guidelines and
2. Agree to follow them.

That has only been necessary a few times, and when people return, they are often one of the first people to remind people in chat not to chat, PLUS move the request made in chat to a group post. How cool is that! We want to help people find what they are looking for. And they ain't looking for no chat.

No chat? Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy!

@opensimworld Some groups want chat and some do not. People get bogged down with personal messages and group chats all coming in. It would be great to toggle this off as a group owner or moderator. @Xinashi and her mods would really benefit from this. Please and thank you.

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"}
