GeekSpeak – Lost Technologies. Join the discussion on Saturday July 29th at 12pm SLT

Saturday, July 29, 2017 Erik Goff, Geek Speak, press release, science, second life, technology No comments

What technologies and the skills to use them are lost in the past? The Antikythera mechanism suggests that ancient technology was more sophisticated than we imagine. We have lost the secret of medieval stained glass, Damascus steel and Greek fire, that kept Byzantium safe for centuries. We can no longer make Stradivarius violins or Roman concrete that lasted so much longer than our concrete lasts.

What drugs and medicines did the ancients discover in plants that we have lost? What did Helen use in the Odyssey to drug her dinner guests? What herbs did the medievals understand and use? What did the wortcunners know that we have forgotten?

And what about the basic skills of primitive people? Could you make fire using only sticks and leaves? Would you be any good at flintknapping? Could you spin thread using a drop spindle?

This week we discuss how people lived and worked with long forgotten skills that, someday, we may need to recover.

Redamancy Forest is a beautiful forest sim created on May 9th, 2017 for women to come and be...WOMEN!! Adelheid Mathy, the sim owner, found it in her heart, creative spirit, and her fabulous mind to create a sim that is geared towards women who crave a space free of judgment, harassment, and mindless chatter that distracts from fully enjoying Second Life.

The sim is managed by Solgazer.Sittingbull and is brimmed full of activities that the female avatar can enjoy: Dancing well into the night, cuddling with your lover or bestie, exploring the depths of the forest, opportunities to engage in enriching and intimate encounters, swimming, and a live DJ set on Tuesdays at 4 PM SLT and Thursdays at 7 PM SLT.

The theme is a natural forest, hence the name, so if you love natural settings, this is the spot for you ladies.

This is a female only sim, so no male lovers or friends are allowed.

Ready to meet gleeful and awesome women like you in a relaxing environment, hope on that train down below and we will see you soon.

Mamaa Saiz performs at Tranquil Cafe at 6pm SLT Tonight!

Wednesday, July 26, 2017 event, Mamaa Saiz, music, press release, second life No comments

Yes, he's irreverent; and he's witty. But he's also a smooth-as-silk guitarist. He sings in a voice all his own. He's been charging his way through top Second Life music venues, lighting audiences on fire with his amazing musical variety: from smoky ballads to jazz classics; maybe a little country and western with a tear jerker and a dash of comedy for seasoning.

His acoustic guitar skills are first rate and he sings and plays 100% live with no backing tracks. He has been influenced by many musicians including Carlos Jobim, Glenn Frye, James Taylor, and more.

"I've made a deal with Linda Ronstadt: I don't play her songs and she don't play mine. And if I stay 100 feet away I don't have to go to jail - again."
- Mamaa Saiz

Second Life - Active Full Viewers - Camury Reporting...

Wednesday, July 26, 2017 Alchemy Viewer, Black Dragon Viewer, Camury, Catznip, Firestorm, Kokua Viewer, Restrained Love Viewer, second life, Singularity Viewer, SL Viewers No comments

All Second Life users are aware of the official Second Life Viewer, available on the main Second Life Downloads page. However, many Second Life developers, outside of Linden Lab, offer custom Second Life viewers. While Linden Lab does not support third-party viewers, many users choose to use these alternative viewers.

Second Life Viewer official:

URL: http://secondlife.com/support/downloads/

What's important to know is that Linden Lab provides a Third-Party Viewer Policy to promote a positive and predictable experience for all Second Life Residents.

Down below you will see a listing of Third-Party viewers created by developers who have certified that they comply with the Third-Party Viewer Policy.

Viewer - Alchemy

An experimental Second Life™ viewer striving to be at the forefront of stability, performance, and technological advancement in the open-source metaverse viewer field.

Platforms: Windows, MacOS, Linux.
URL: https://www.alchemyviewer.org/

Viewer - Black Dragon

The primary goal of Black Dragon is to enhance and refine the visuals of Second Life as well as having unique design approaches and features.

Platforms: Windows
URL: https://bitbucket.org/NiranV/black-dragon-viewer/wiki/Home

Viewer - Firestorm

The next generation viewer from The Phoenix Firestorm Project, Firestorm is based on the LL V3 LGPL code and offers extensive interface customizability including V1 skin options, feature and option rich with 24/7 support.

Platforms: Windows, MacOS, Linux
URL: http://www.firestormviewer.org/

Viewer - Kokua

Kokua is an open source viewer for Second Life and OpenSim-based virtual worlds. The goal of Kokua is to improve the user interface and usability of the viewer through community involvement, thoughtful design, modern development methods, and a pro-change atmosphere.

Platforms: Windows, MacOS, Linux, Linux 64bit
URL: http://blog.kokuaviewer.org/

Viewer - Catznip

Catznip aims to refine and reinvent your window into Second Life. Our focus is stability, usability, privacy and plenty of new original home grown features. It's about taking a fresh look at things and attempting to do them better. Catznip is the development viewer for the alternative implementation of the RLV specification. RLVa goes from Catznip into many other TPVs including Firestorm and Phoenix. This is especially useful for script developers as Catznip represents the future of RLVa often months ahead of the mainstream.

Platforms: Windows, Linux
URL: http://catznip.com/index.php/Catznip_Second_Life_Viewer

Viewer - Restrained Love

The RLV enhances your experience when you use it in conjunction with RLV-compatible objects, which are very common on the SL grid now. It is primarily intended to be used by BDSM fans with BDSM oriented objects in-world, which can restrict the user from detaching items, receiving IMs, hearing chat, teleporting, etc. It can also be useful for totally PG purposes, such as forcing to teleport somewhere (facilitating transport networks), changing the Windlight settings through scripts (helping sim owners), preventing from teleporting out of a maze, etc.

Platforms: Windows, MacOS
URL: http://realrestraint.blogspot.com.br/?zx=fffd737dda2b59ed

Viewer - Singularity

Singularity strives to combine the beloved look and feel of Viewer 1.23 with the latest and greatest of available technology, and to stay compatible with future Second Life changes and features.

Platforms: Windows, Linux
URL: http://www.singularityviewer.org/

The user should be wary of third-party viewers who have declined to self-certify compliance with Linden Lab policies or have been turned down for non-compliance with policies.

Other viewers such as Exodus, Imprudence and UkanDo have not been updated recently enough to be considered fully compatible with current Second Life services. Depending on their use, they may or may not meet your needs.

All viewers described above are projects that are regularly updated to track new developments in the Linden Lab viewer and implement a complete graphical environment. So, if you want to take advantage of all aspects of full viewer functionality, choose one of the viewers listed above and enjoy!

Swing Low Sweet Chariots: Bento Balls are the new thing in adult male fashion.. Swing by .... and grow a pair.- Lanai Jarrico Reporting…

Monday, July 24, 2017 Adult, Bento Balls, entertainment, second life No comments

While wandering the grid visiting new club owners I was IM’d by a friend who brought this new adult trend to my attention. He invited me over for a massage and a closer look.

Did you know Aeros make animated members as addons for each type of penis they make. Rather than shy away from this very important subject I decided to interview a Bento Ball wearer and see what is so spectacular about having a swingin pair. His name has been changed to avoid stalkers and gawkers.

Lanai Jarrico: Hi.. Bob: can you tell me how you stumbled upon Bento Balls?

Bob: Friend mentioned them in her profile...

Lanai Jarrico: What do you think the major appeal is and how do you like them compared to the stiff sack?

Bob: I did a search on marketplace. There was no demo. So as I already had the Aeros Magnus cock, I took the plunge. They add realism to my sl experience and also are quite a talking point. Even giving massage they gently sway ;) lol

Lanai Jarrico: Have you put them to use? If so, what was it like?

Bob: During sex they move realistically, add a new dimension to my roleplay.

Lanai Jarrico: I see. Does it come with sound effects?

Bob: No sound that I'm aware off. Althoug a slapping sound would be cool!

Lanai Jarrico: I thought I seen everything in SL and yet after 12 years... this lol. I'm curious how much to they go for?

Bob: 450L

Lanai Jarrico: One last question that Im sure my readers would like to know... What happens when you get too hot or too cold, is their a cuff and hide action or do they swing low?

Bob: Well isn't it always warm in sl?! They remain low and hung :)

Lanai Jarrico: I guess that answers the question on everyone's mind. Any final thoughts on this new adult accessory?

Bob: well it completes me. My partner and girlfriends love my new balls. :) outta 10 I give them 11

Dragonflies are symbolic of change in perspective, self realization and a deeper meaning of life. In Second Life many changes take place, new ideas are born and they join new people together.

What inspired Club Dragonfly?

Brit- I have been a dj for 4 yrs, and was with a club over 1.5 yrs, where I dj'd and helped the group grow from 100 Vip's to over 1000, it then closed and along with Sol decided to open Club Dragonfly as a new beginning.

Sol-I've been a manager for a couple of clubs, until I met Brit. With her I helped to do the events and daily running of her previous club. Once we married, our new beginning became the new start for Club Dragonfly

What type of crowd does Club Dragonfly attract?

Everyone is welcome here. We want a fun club, so bring it on, but leave the drama at home.This is an adult club but we do not allow nudity or child avies unless it's a special event.

What type of genre do you play?

All our Dj's bring a special flavor to the club, We have Dj's that play different genres anywhere from Bounce to techno, Electro Swing to EDM and dance~ There's also RnB and some Jazz.No two sets are the same.

What type of events can guests expect at Club Dragonfly?

We have give-a-way Saturdays, where each set there is a special item given out.

Couple Sundays. Easy listening day geared towards couples or folks just wanting a nice relaxing set to listen to

Our big events are always themed and the last Saturday of the month. We treat our guest with great give a-ways. and a day of fun with set themes.

Open from Thursday to Monday, sets are from 11 to 7pm SLT. with the exception of Monday (6-8 SLT) Be sure to join the group so you can keep up with our events.

Club Dragonfly's Grand Opening Fair is coming up on July 29th, can you tell our readers more about it?

Are you currently hiring?
