DNS, or Domain Name System, is the internet's phonebook, translating human-readable domain names (like google.com) into machine-readable IP addresses (like 172.217.160.142). This allows users to access websites and other online resources using easy-to-remember names instead of complex IP addresses.

For anybody struggling for domain names or server URL's, there are a couple of services I often use, One is NoIP https://www.noip.com/ although sub-domaining on there has limited domain options, a service that has many domain options is Afraid DNS, https://freedns.afraid.org/ both of these services are free to use, with NoIP also having a paid tier, I hope this information might help some of you

Just in case you want to teleport to Mittelmeer in expectation of a party because it has the most avatars present...

...this is not a party.

We're holding the obsequies for the sim owner, Freddy Nightmare, who has moved on to the Big Skyplatform on August 1st.

If you want to come in and join anyway, you're highly advised to dress accordingly, i.e. in black.

Thank you for your attention.

Sunday, Aug 10 11am with DJ Ely
Find a Black or White outfit and come join us at the new Welcome Island on Friends Grid. DJ Ely will be playing a mix of Latin and pop music that is sure to keep you dancing!

IMPORTANT MESSAGE

Wednesday I will be unavailable all day as I am having a small surgical procedure done and a few test. Fingers crossed. This also means early bed time Tuesday evening, any help that is needed has to be done by 11pm.

July 16-20th I will be camping, that means I will have very limited internet if any at all. Rocky will keep an eye on the grid for me while i am gone. If you do message me, my reply might only be in the early morning or late at night. I am camping at a music festival and with a ton of people and limit cell towers this is why.

I wanted a variety of car garages, so I built some. I thought maybe someone else would like to have them too. They range from 13 to 27 prims and are designed to sink slightly into the ground. They are FP, so you can tint or recolor if you wish. They are all set to take a copy. Find them behind the main shop. Look for the big NEW sign in the sky. Please let me know if you encounter any issues, as I am using a new door script. Dragon not included. ;)

A – Awakening

The soul awakens in every corner. TAKE Land is not just a landscape; it’s a call to remember who you are. The structures, the paths, and the details invite introspection, a connection with nature, with the sacred, and with creativity.

“Awaken. You’re in the place where your essence remembers.”

So, initially with preset mood settings, deselected, later automated randomly.
Also in progress:
Finalize current Dorena
Secure long-term memory & mood core
Plan distributability (Docker, mirror, update systems)
Improve character transmission (personal values, imprinting, response depth)
Digital "autonomy" (networking, self-positioning)
Ethical protection & limitations
Documentation as a legacy folder

Good afternoon Shoppers. You may have noticed Mystic posting on this page her wares, you will find these in the Legacy store on the South East of the region.

I, on the other hand have been a little busy bee today. I have had a couple of requests from customers for items that they are looking for, so in the fatpacks there is a huge array of apocalyptic items. We have new items in the 2025 building and in the NE of the region we have new items added for Legacy and LaraX. We try to do all fatpacks so that you can chop and change what you want to wear and how you wear it. We hope you enjoy.

Happy Shopping ♥

The next title to be released at Homelandz Public Library is a request from Ankh Senaton/Lionheart... a classic by HG Wells...The Time Machine! Find it upstairs on the bookshelf marked T for Time ;)

The Time Machine is an 1895 dystopian post-apocalyptic science fiction novella by H. G. Wells about a Victorian scientist known as the Time Traveller who travels to the year 802,701. The work is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle or device to travel purposely and selectively forward or backward through time. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now almost universally used to refer to such a vehicle or device.

Utilizing a frame story set in then-present Victorian England, Wells' text focuses on a recount of the otherwise anonymous Time Travelers journey into the far future. A work of future history and speculative evolution, The Time Machine is interpreted in modern times as a commentary on the increasing inequality and class divisions of Wells' era, which he projects as giving rise to two separate human species: the fair, childlike Eloi, and the savage, simian Morlocks, distant descendants of the contemporary upper and lower classes respectively. It is believed that Wells' depiction of the Eloi as a race living in plenitude and abandon was inspired by the utopic romance novel News from Nowhere (1890), though Wells' universe in the novel is notably more savage and brutal.

In his 1931 preface to the book, Wells wrote that The Time Machine seemed "a very undergraduate performance to its now mature writer, as he looks over it once more", though he states that "the writer feels no remorse for this youthful effort". However, critics have praised the novella's handling of its thematic concerns, with Marina Warner writing that the book was the most significant contribution to understanding fragments of desire[clarify] before Sigmund Freud's The Interpretation of Dreams, with the novel "[conveying] how close he felt to the melancholy seeker after a door that he once opened on to a luminous vision and could never find again".

The Time Machine has been adapted into two feature films of the same name, as well as two television versions and many comic book adaptations. It has also indirectly inspired many more works of fiction in many media productions.

Next up to our opensim public library is the #1 selling book on the planet...the Holy Bible! We hope you have use for this and can gain strength and inspiration. Bearing that in mind, i am aware there are a number of different faiths and beliefs out there. I am respectful of others beliefs, so keep in mind i will be deleting and maybe blocking anyone that tries to take a positive thing for a large group of people, and turn it into a heated debate, flaming, trolling. This is a peaceful freebie FOR THOSE WHO WANT IT. :) nobody is under obligation to come claim this free item, and thus, nobody should complain. Thank you in advance for being polite, rational and kind :)

A *BIG* shout out to Cyberglo Cyberstar, who has been so generous and kind with his time, adding 1 fix to take us to version 1.1 and allow pages to move backwards. Then the next day taking us to version 2.0 and allowing us the potential to make books in minutes rather than days and hours. and yet a 3rd update already to take us to script version 2.3!

New Features from 2.0 to 2.3:

Can now view the cover by clicking left side from page 1, to close the book/show cover. Adds a professionalism and another level of realism to the book experience. (also close book from menu)

Which leads us to the bigger features...a menu is added! holding down the left mouse ANYWHERE on the book for 5-10 seconds will give a popup menu:
1)page number 2)bookmarks 3)close book

We already mentioned 3 and self explanatory.
1- page number: push this to jump to any of the 1119 pages of this book
2- bookmarks: that's right, save your place, or simply remember some significant pages. you can name each page and you can create a bookmark using the menu, or you can edit the notecard (PATIENCE! it DOES take some computers a bit of time to load 1,119 images!)

Now keep in mind, you want to follow the examples already laid out in the notecard that is included. you can simply edit or erase this once you have the jist of how to name and format the notecard. (dont be silly like me and try to save a page as "John 3:16"....it needs the : to tell it what page to go to...so rather than take me to page 987 or what have you, it took me to page 16.

Yes, I am already aware some adjustments need to be made to the numbering system/script. For now, use it for what it is, and be grateful for the minutes to hours it will save you getting you relatively close to the page you wish to jump to or bookmark. We will obviously do our best to make this more accurate. ENJOY!

**It's Pride Riot MFerz! And that means...time for rainbow-everything!**
Too much to mention individually but:
- A couple of clothing items (Dress, top, boots, and gloves)
- Tons of wearables (Hat, mugs, cake pops, flags, headbands, hats...gay bacon!)
- Tattoos (Flags, Pride cats, hairbases, makeup...).
Come get it all!

I am planing to do special Tribute Sets at Bikers Heaven
once a month or once in 2 months depending if you like
it or whats your opinion about it.

The first Tribute Set will be on the 9th of Juni 2025
what Band will be at the Tribute Set i will let you know
in the Groupmessages.

You also can send advices with Bandnames ingame at AMV
just include it to a notecard as the messages can get lost.

Tribute Set can be just single songs in a row of a special band
or if i can get it a whole concert of the band. The quality of the
concerts arent the best most times.

Hope to hear from you with your ideas and advices.

Have a great day all
Hugs

We're currently taking applications for several roles in our upcoming MCU based Roleplay: Ragnarok Lives.

In our story, Hela never lost. Her forces maintain a presence throughout the besieged areas where Loki and Thor and the others are now holed up, surviving by staying under the radar. They must remain undetected, and oh, another thing - before they escaped her, she took away their powers. They're still who they are, but .. forced to live as humans now. She brought down the ship the Asgardians were on, and crash landed it on a remote and unknown land. Loki and Thor have of course reconciled and are closer than ever, but there are many who still do not trust Loki and there is mistrust to go around - and not just against him.

Open to a cast of many, Loki is taken :) All MCU Characters very much welcome to join in.

Watch for updates, coming soon, and if interested leave reply here or message me. Likely to have strong mature themes. Open minded please, absolutely NO homophobia etc.
