So it is all a misunderstanding? Seem to happen a lot in SL where one creator wrongly accuses another of copying their content. Guess we will see that more and more as Opensim fills with content.

I forget about the group here and only look at updates on the Discord group. Have to try to remember to look here too.

The "What I Found In OS" Discord group is a guide to the best shops that carry certain types of items. It's on Discord because it's possible to better organize the info. The group here is the place to ask to find specific items.(although that may be happening in the Discord group too).

I'm still learning my way around Discord. If anyone wants to visit the group there, this might work:

I've seen something like that on a couple of occasions but for the life of me forgot where. Somebody in the old Metro grid had it though.

I don't get it. The smallest non -physical prim size allowed in opemsim is .001 so any linkset would at least shrink to where that linked prim is .001 would it not?

Gas in my area went from .70 cents per litre to $1.50 per litre. Defense budget might have gone up but that is only a small segment of the economy. Many other areas are hurting.

"Rare" used to be applied in on case out of 1 million and has now dropped down to 1 in less then 10,000 and that only applies when talking about 1 side effect even though some Covid vaccines have a dozen or more listed debilitating side effects, upping the case of overall side effects to under 1 in a 1,000.
The CDC and FDA have taken a huge hit on their reputation because of the waffling around of recommended suggestions because of the pandemic.

Studies, by qualified researchers, using scientific procedures, published in a peer-review journal. and the findings replicated by other researchers.

A corrupt process that is increasingly coming under criticism. Several reputable journals were caught with their pants down because of biases they put through their publications. Not surprising considering some of the large pharmaceuticals we're doing their advertising through them. Studies that were not favorable to them were pulled before they even made it through the peer review process.

I think the word is actually "Tolerance" because it is through it we develop patience.
like(1)
Tolerance could apply, but it requires a massive amount of PATIENCE to invoke tolerance having to deal with the intolerant emotionally disturbed.

"Through "tolerance" we develop patience". "Don't allow your emotions to overpower your intelligence."
liked(1)
Patience is a virtue. Tolerance is a performed action. Enough actions will develop into a natural virtue. So don't allow your emotions to overtake your virtue that will affect your intelligence.
liked(1)
Patience is an ability or willingness to suppress restlessness or annoyance when confronted with delay: to have patience with a slow learner. Which is also a performed action. Virtue is thinking and doing what is right and avoiding what is wrong. lol

I can see that being some truth. So essentially what you say is both Patience and Tolerance are learned abilities. When you learn to ride a bike, you learn to balance which becomes a natural ability that you do not have to think about. When you pedal and steer the bike down a long road, you consciously turn left and right, but unconsciously balance. Which do you define patience and tolerance? As steering or balance?

This is how it used to be where one could quickly and easily find others to help out with the software to get things up and running or issues resolved if there was a bug. We used to sit in Lbsa Plaza and help new people get their own region or grid up and running and was often the main topic of conversation. When the mesh content came the conversations turned to copybot and then eventually to nothing at all and nowadays I rarely hear of anyone trying to get a sim or grid running though maybe DreamGrid made a lot of that unnecessary. It is nice to hear someone was helped but a bit of strange for some of us older ones as it used to be the norm and not something that required its own thread. How times have changed.

I understand that though SL has taken the store down there.
like(0)
Thinking it is like the Aeros Penis in SL where the store suddenly closed without warning and then months later was reopened but with a warning that there would be no support for the products. Leads me to suspect the original creator passed away and the rights went to someone who inherited it but doesn't know how to support it.

Dan Banner in past related how he had to spend weekends sometimes purging content for which DMCA's had been filed, so much that Osgrid was one of the first to block Sacrarium just to stop the flow of DMCA reported content. Osgrid at least was pretty conscientious in removing it and cutting off the flow. I still finding items in Inventory that no longer rezz because at some point it was removed from the grid's asset servers. Other commercial grids followed suit to varying degrees. Second Life on the other hand has had a wealth of copybot Marketplace stores selling contraband for ages but they won't take those down unless there is an actual DMCA filed.

What you saw there was a critique which is stating a problem, the potential how and why of it and to some degree a resolution vs a whine which is no more then a plaintive cry.

Could have a point Copper but then I would have wished Kitely had set their own credits up to be purchased by HG avatars rather then only for their local grid.

By HG business ... some years ago..Kittely announced their reasons for that. My intension was just that, that people shouldn't trust a private. ex Linden employee. plus I never understand why so many (especially american), who cant buy good food, invest in VR pixel stuff. I am in this since 2007 SL. This is such a nonsense. Why is all about money always. Gratefully there are grids who run this as a hobby. And this is what OS should all be about! Do create for a hobby (in OS), or let it be.

And when I create something, or make a cute script, I share with friends / community, and never ask for a price, even when that work takes weeks. And not like "shiny" Luna here etc. This should stay all free for everyone! And not always run for the $$ shit. And here I DO NOT mean her great work. JUST the $$ in the eyes

Well I don't mind paying for something extra that others may also be interested in. I have no expectations that it should be free unless maybe I had something to contribute in return.

If all would just create for a hobby, and wouldnt have always the $$ in their eyes, and share with friends and community who like their stuff (like here at OSW with scripts etc), then god mode, copy viewer and so on would dry out, and 90% of those discussions, hate, and all the other stuff about commercial interest would be gone. There wouldn't exist anymore interest about all that all anymore. I go on further: No more interest in exploding a sim... less hate and , last but not least, less drama

All I know is that I hate the fact that the original creator field doesn't work once it is transferred over the hypergrid. Been a few times I would have loved to see their other content but the field is always just loading. That is an issue with Opensim because it used to work.

Stuff like groups, friendship and, I guess, listing an item creator, doesn't work very well across grids.

Friends do work though it may take a couple tries and between each try, one has to delete the contact card and previous friend entry. Only try it on the one or others home grid and be sure to click the confirmation dialogue box on returning to one's home grid, even if it doesn't appear until the next login.
