From this day forward if you post negative drama about ANY grid owner, I don't care who it is or what they've done, I will block you. YOUR drama is NOT what this OSW page is for. I don't care what other grid owners are doing, it's their grid they can do what they want so, back up, grow up and shut up.

!!!Gridnews!!!
Auf uns kommt da was zu, der Gridserver hat sich zwecks Festplattenüberprüfung gemeldet, befürchte einen Knacks. Das heißt Umzug auf neuen Server und Downtime. Mein Gedanke geht darin, die 2 auf einen doppelt so großen modernen Server zusammenzulegen.
Ich sage es euch ehrlich, da kommt was auf uns zu, bzw auf mich. Ist eine ziemliche Menge an Daten
Stress, da ich lieber nicht allzu lange warten will und für einen Monat höhere Kosten, wegen doppelter Miete, später dafür günstiger.
Ich schreibe auch alle anderen persönlich an, die es betrifft.
Neues Maschinchen ist spätestens morgen da.
Dann geht es folgendermaßen los:
1. Betriebsystemupdates
2. Umzug aller Regionen vorerst ankoppeln an den "alten Server"
3. Runterfahren der alten Server und Kopieren und aktivieren der rübergschaufelten Griddatenbank. Wegen der Größe kann das eine 3-4 tägige Downtime bedeuten, wahrscheinlich aber erheblich schneller.
4. Domainumzug und einrichten des Webinterfaces.
5. Hochfahren mit Gridservices und Regionen, Abschluss der Arbeiten.

!!!Grid News!!!
Something is coming our way, the grid server has reported to check the hard drive, I fear a crack. That means moving to a new server and downtime. My idea is to merge the 2 into a modern server twice the size.
I'll tell you honestly, something is coming our way, or me. Is quite a lot of data
Stress, because I prefer not to wait too long and higher costs for one month because of double the rent, later cheaper.
I am also writing to everyone else personally who is affected.
New machine will be there by tomorrow at the latest.
Then it starts like this:
1. Operating system updates
2. Relocation of all regions initially connect to the "old server"
3. Shutting down the old servers and copying and activating the migrated grid database. Because of the size, this can mean a 3-4 day downtime, but probably much faster.
4. Domain transfer and setting up the web interface.
5. Start up with gridservices and regions, work done.

* Black White Village *
A small, sleepy village on the brink of mayoral elections. There are posters on the streetlights everywhere. Really annoying ...

Ein kleiner verschlafener Ort, der kurz vor den Bürgermeisterwahlen steht. Überall hängen Plakate an den Straßenlaternen. Echt nervig ...

Thank you @JupiterRowland for bringing to my attention that I included my MashUp OSW beacon in the recent OAR I gave out to the Outworldz DreamGrid community. Those that have that OAR can you please do me a huge favor and delete the OSW Beacon that was included in the MashUp OAR you have. Then restart your sims. It would be greatly appreciated. I have updated the OAR and Fred will get it in the updater soon. I apologize for that oversight. Thanks again, Jupiter!

NO CHILD AVATARS

It's nice when a region gets a "like". But it's PHANTASTIC when people are inspired by the ideas of others to create great things themselves. Like the beautiful photos that some visitors took with an extra black and white styled avatar at Black White Castle and published here on OSW.
I myself was inspired to build the region in 2022 by the wonderful Christmas present from my friends Finja and Jason, who had built a Wednesday snow globe especially for me. Wednesday (Addams, from the Addams Family) is supposedly allergic to color, and so the two of them made this particular globe predominantly dark ...
So when an idea inspires another person to create a new idea and this idea inspires other people to create new things, that's what makes OpenSim really fun ...
THANK YOU!!!

p.s.: The original Wednesday sphere can also be found on Black White Castle: If you find it, you are welcome to look at it, but better not click on it ... :)

Es ist schön, wenn eine Region ein "Like" bekommt. Aber es ist PHANTASTISCH, wenn Leute durch die Ideen anderer inspiriert werden, selbst tolle Dinge zu schaffen. So wie die schönen Fotos, die einige Besucher mit einem extra schwarz - weiß gestylten Avatar auf Black White Castle gemacht und hier auf OSW veröffentlicht haben.
Ich selbst wurde 2022 zum Bau der Region das wunderbare Weihnachtsgeschenk meiner Freunde Finja und Jason inspiriert, die eine Wednesday-Schneekugel extra für mich gebaut hatten. Wednesday (Addams, von der Addams Family) ist angeblich allergisch gegen Farbe, und so haben die beiden diese spezielle Kugel auch überwiegend dunkel gestaltet ...
Wenn also eine Idee eine andere Person zu einer neuen Idee inspiriert und diese Idee andere Personen zu wieder neuen Werken anregt, dann ist es genau das, was einem richtig Spaß an OpenSim bringt ...
DANKE EUCH!!!!

p.s.: Die Original-Wednesday-Kugel befindet sich ebenfalls auf Black White Castle: Wer sie findet, darf sie gerne betrachten, aber besser nicht anklicken ... :)

„Jetzt leuchten die Kerzen überall. Deshalb ich wünsche Euch, dass deren Wärme und Geborgenheit Euch durch das gesamte Jahr begleitet. Habt ein frohes Weihnachtsfest!“
"Now the candles shine everywhere. Therefore, I wish you that their warmth and security will accompany you throughout the year. Have a Merry Christmas!"

I secured a prestigious and coveted job in the Mayors' office in the village on Black White Castle sim. I am so excited and busy all day long! I am in charge of voter registration.
“Monochrome moments, timeless memories.” -- no idea who actually said that.

Ich wünsche Euch für das neue Jahr: Eine Hand die dich festhält, ein Netz, das dich auffängt, ein Schild, das dir den Weg weist und 1000 Sterne, die dir diesen Weg erhellen.
I wish you for the new year: a hand that holds you tight, a net that catches you, a sign that shows you the way and a thousand stars that light your path.

Luxury Marakin Resort surrounded by beautiful landscaped gardens, a rain forest, private tropical beach island. Visit the restaurant or dine under the moonlight at Table for Two, swim in the luxury pool overlooking the ocean. Spend a night in the Penthouse or one of the individually decorated apartment rooms. From the resort you can walk across one bridge to Havana or go in the opposite direction across to parkland and shopping by the public beach. You will never want to check out. Ideally located not far from the wedding venue so it makes for the perfect honeymoon night in the Penthouse.
