[08:14] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: since it's 9n the wording RE-searching, looking at it Again
[08:14] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: RIP Ebbe
[08:14] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: LOL
[08:15] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: i'm not a huge fan of facebook anymore
[08:15] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: I'd have answered "You don't know what you're talkiing about"
[08:15] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Facebook has also had utility for surveillance and advertising LOL
[08:15] Prokofy Neva: Facebook doesn't have gatchas tho
[08:15] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Good point Prok lol
[08:16] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: facebook=Evil
[08:16] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: Prok, don't give FB any ideas ;D
[08:16] Prokofy Neva: plus even if you total the engineer app revenue from FB, it would not equal the revenue for resident creators in SL
[08:16] Garnet Psaltery: mewe :o)
[08:16] Speaker: Kristaki Hudson says: Hello
[08:16] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: Sl doesn't steal your info, they ask you 10L to volunteer it^^
[08:16] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: i had to come away from facebook and I went to being on discord more instead and other social media sites
[08:16] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: The social dilema
[08:16] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Nice shot
[08:17] Prokofy Neva: his son was in SL like my son
[08:18] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: :o
[08:18] Garnet Psaltery: sweet
[08:18] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: awesome
[08:19] Ingrid Ingersoll: Did Ebbe found Sansar? I still like sansar.
[08:20] Ingrid Ingersoll: wish it hadn't been sold
[08:20] Prokofy Neva: it's sold to one of the investors who just bought SL tho
[08:20] Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin): he was very involved with Sansar, yep
[08:20] Ingrid Ingersoll: oh i didn't know that Prok
[08:20] Prokofy Neva: and that's really his most remarkable achievement, selling both these worlds, any company would be lucky to have him, it's truly a loss
[08:21] Ingrid Ingersoll: Sansar is a great platform i think. I like making worlds in it
[08:21] Prokofy Neva: well you can still go there Ingrid
[08:21] Ingrid Ingersoll: i do
[08:21] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: sansar isnt owned by the same people that bought SL (i'm 99.9% sure)
[08:21] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: yah, it was a different company
[08:21] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: sansar = wookey
[08:21] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: Good point, Tom! Not every community or platforms has to be in the millions or billions (whether in population or even profits)
[08:21] Prokofy Neva: I will find you the article Daemon, in fact one of the investors is indeed the same
[08:22] Ingrid Ingersoll: i've made about 10 worlds in sansar during the lockdown
[08:22] Ingrid Ingersoll: kept me sane
[08:22] Chantal Harvey: i prefer second life, at any time
[08:22] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: i prefer second life, at any time
[08:22] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: right
[08:22] Garnet Psaltery: Sansar is great for people who can make worlds but most of us can't or don't want to.
[08:22] Chantal Harvey: exactly
[08:22] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: exactly
[08:22] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: Making a comparison to Minecraft really bugs me, it's not the same
[08:22] Garnet Psaltery: Besides I like being able to fly betwen regions. :o)
[08:22] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Indeed, what about all the sex lol... "let me introduce you to the internet"
[08:23] Bloodfang TS Clawtooth (bloodfang.clawtooth): I like VRChat
[08:23] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: lol nice way of putting it Drax
[08:23] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: they said that about the internet too.
[08:24] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: I remember that eing said
[08:24] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: *being
[08:24] Prokofy Neva: Rajeev V. Date is the person in common among both LL's new investors and https://www.waterfield.com/about/leadership/ which is an investor in Sansar https://nwn.blogs.com/nwn/2020/07/linden-lab-second-life-acquired.html
[08:24] Ingrid Ingersoll: The media focused on the poseballs while tons of other stuff was happening
[08:24] Ingrid Ingersoll: which bored them
[08:25] Ingrid Ingersoll: why would they want to feature a creative space?
[08:25] Garnet Psaltery: lack of time or money
[08:25] Chantal Harvey: i never get friends to even try second life, there is such a resistance
[08:25] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: i never get friends to even try second life, there is such a resistance
[08:25] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: I think a big part of it is that SL isn't compatible, in some ways, with the "smartphone revolution" and people being connected 24/7 but still mobile
[08:25] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: well, does that count as "they own both?"
[08:26] Prokofy Neva: investor means owning, Daemon
[08:26] Garnet Psaltery: You're right, Chantal, all my relatives think I'm mad, which I might be anyway, but ,,
[08:26] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): heheh!
[08:26] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: Sometimes I think it's interface fear
[08:26] Chantal Harvey: the common comment is: thank you i already have a life
[08:26] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: the common comment is: thank you i already have a life
[08:26] Ingrid Ingersoll: lol draxtor
[08:26] Leaha Mistwallow: . ooh
[08:26] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: lol
[08:26] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: brad seems cool
[08:26] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: Drax has refined the onboarding process to a fine art I believe
[08:27] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: good comments please paste agasin so it does not sleep by
[08:27] Ingrid Ingersoll: he has a company called "Auto return"? lol
[08:27] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): I think the steep learning curve of the GUI might overwhelm some new users.
[08:27] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: hehe
[08:27] Leaha Mistwallow: lol
[08:27] Prokofy Neva: fear of avatarization
[08:28] Chantal Harvey: could be
[08:28] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: could be
[08:28] DrFran Babcock: hello all my fellow SLers. HappyBirthday
[08:28] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: hello all my fellow SLers. HappyBirthday
[08:28] Chantal Harvey: never call yourself second?
[08:28] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: never call yourself second?
[08:28] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: hmmm
[08:28] Garnet Psaltery: Hello Fran
[08:28] Leaha Mistwallow: me too
[08:28] DrFran Babcock: hugs
[08:28] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: hugs
[08:28] Speaker: Alta Thiemen says: I'm not sure it's the name or the technology. It may be the commitment one has to make to construct a rich online life.
[08:28] Chantal Harvey: i love second life, its part of 1st 2nd and 3rd life
[08:28] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: i love second life, its part of 1st 2nd and 3rd life
[08:28] Prokofy Neva: There are people who say "Second Life" with the stress on the first word, and people who say it with the stress on the second word.
[08:28] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: i think the idea of endless possibilities is a problem, as when you offer too many possibilities or options a person becomes overwhelmed, and they balk.
[08:29] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: i been told to get a first life before when I have spoken about secondlife
[08:29] Speaker: Luraikir Resident says: Just got here, and oof, trying to stabilize my frames. Had to completely flatline my draw distance lol
[08:29] Mal Burns (malburns.writer): would it have worked better if it was "eLife" or similar?
[08:29] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): let's rename to Extra Life, heheh!
[08:29] Garnet Psaltery: Like milk?
[08:29] Prokofy Neva: Benjamin Noble once said he views his avatar as "an email attachment". But an avatar is another manifestation of your being, it's on a continuum
[08:29] Chantal Harvey: but in the netherlands this online cheating thing started, called second lofe - and it is a success! so its not the name
[08:29] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: but in the netherlands this online cheating thing started, called second lofe - and it is a success! so its not the name
[08:29] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: saffia mic is on
[08:29] Speaker: Philip Rosedale says: "There are too many Mes" -- Steven Spielberg on first using Second Life. I think this is an illuminating quote to return to.
[08:30] Prokofy Neva: well Gurdjieff spoke of "the many Is"
[08:30] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: oh yes, uni s opinion of SL is very infiuruating narrow view
[08:30] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: LOL
[08:31] Prokofy Neva: gosh what horror story did he write on that
[08:31] Saffia Widdershins: Thanks Daemon
[08:31] Speaker: Saffia Widdershins says: Thanks Daemon
[08:31] Chantal Harvey: hey david bowie used second life
[08:31] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: hey david bowie used second life
[08:31] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: /me smiles
[08:31] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: haha np
[08:31] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: I'm very frustrating sometimes of this view at the uni
[08:32] Jessika Jenvieve: I had the same problem when I gave SL lecture
[08:32] Prokofy Neva: even Patch Linden calls it "an escape from stressors" -- and so people coming from a Puritan culture feel they can't be seen to escape reality, and they don't see it as a reality. If someone has a business in SL, how is that escape? If they met there RL partner in SL, how is that escape? Not to mention the arguments you can mount in favour of escapism.
[08:32] Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin): Drax - the SL evangelist <nods>
[08:32] Ingrid Ingersoll: VR head sets are tough. A lot of people don't want to totally disconnect from their surroundings
[08:32] Ingrid Ingersoll: (me)
[08:33] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: a lot of VR's issue was the cost of a headset setup.... it was $1000+ computer and $1000+ headset = $2000+... but now it's about $300 total to get in.
[08:33] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: yes whereas in secondlife you can be who you like
[08:33] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: I found when I wa studying my MA, I fouund I was often teaching the teachers
[08:33] May Beck (mairead.mcconnell): I work ina new user area and usually the first questian is ..what do I need to do ? they often don't understand that there are no quests or levels and they are free
[08:33] Speaker: Mairead McConnell says: I work ina new user area and usually the first questian is ..what do I need to do ? they often don't understand that there are no quests or levels and they are free
[08:34] Prokofy Neva: yet people often use FB ot create a completely illusory image of their real life
[08:34] DrFran Babcock: same as Clubhouse, Tom. There are few trolls in Clubhouse, because people are easily traced.
[08:34] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: same as Clubhouse, Tom. There are few trolls in Clubhouse, because people are easily traced.
[08:34] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: the FB "fake name" policy is ridiculous and frustrating
[08:34] Jammy Serendipity (navanaxsacratus): That concept of not having quests or levels and that perspective of freedom is daunting, and I would suggest that it is one of the things that causes people to leave.
[08:34] Speaker: NavanaxSacratus Resident says: That concept of not having quests or levels and that perspective of freedom is daunting, and I would suggest that it is one of the things that causes people to leave.
[08:34] Tex (softers): I've been a Creator on IMVU for over 11 years, its the elephant on the sim nobody is talking about lol
[08:34] Speaker: Softers Resident says: I've been a Creator on IMVU for over 11 years, its the elephant on the sim nobody is talking about lol
[08:35] Chantal Harvey: my fb name is my second life avatar name, haha
[08:35] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: my fb name is my second life avatar name, haha
[08:35] Ingrid Ingersoll: never tried it
[08:35] Prokofy Neva: maybe because it's not an elephant but a mouse?
[08:35] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: i left imvu when they stopped letting me be a reseller.
[08:35] Prokofy Neva: I wonder if Anshe is still in IMVU
[08:35] Second Life Bookcllub -Announcement Board: I can only open a URL dialog on your screen if you're in my sim!
[08:35] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: anshe is not really involved now, they stopped their reseller's program
[08:35] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: (imvu)
[08:35] Garnet Psaltery: nuuuuuuu
[08:36] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: I tried IMVU but I didn;t stay on IMVU for long
[08:36] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: imvu was good when Will Harvey was involved
[08:36] Garnet Psaltery: I don't want to be the same as in RL
[08:36] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): SL will simply be 3D Facebook then, in that case, hahah
[08:36] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: but he makes firework shows now
[08:36] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: the last name system though is why folk view the virtual world as a game too though.
[08:36] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: My SL name is (now) my RL name as well, but I think I'm unusual in that regard ;D
[08:36] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: i would not be here :)_
[08:36] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: hihhihi
[08:36] Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin): I would not be "me" either and that wouldn't be much fun. :P
[08:36] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: And the default prim texture is... wood! LOL
[08:37] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: lol tom
[08:37] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: more like web 3.0
[08:38] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: but did that actually work? Did people actually group by name?
[08:38] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: what is the nbame of that garden
[08:38] Prokofy Neva: Svarga
[08:38] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: Svarga?
[08:38] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: darn it
[08:38] Prokofy Neva: and it was Mainland!
[08:38] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: I don't thikk so
[08:38] Saffia Widdershins: Svarga
[08:38] Speaker: Saffia Widdershins says: Svarga
[08:38] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Apollo?
[08:38] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: Svarga yes
[08:38] Ingrid Ingersoll: sounds like svarga
[08:38] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: i always thought that the Firstname Lastname idea is good for letting LOTS of people have the same firstname and still be unique, instead of just a single username which encourages Daemon999 type names.
[08:38] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Oh right
[08:38] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: By Laukosargas Svarog
[08:38] Speaker: AngelsDen Resident says: it happened... I brought my sister in and we got the same last name
[08:38] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: no avi :(
[08:39] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: that was a lovely place
[08:39] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: it would be a sad party without avatars
[08:39] Chantal Harvey: no, avatar is key
[08:39] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: no, avatar is key
[08:39] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): without avatars, we would simply be "observers", not active participants/residents.
[08:39] Mal Burns (malburns.writer): without avatars it would be LEGO
[08:39] Trep (trep.cosmo): When I met Tom during the writing of Coming of Age, I was spending a lot of energy keeping a wall separating First and Second Lives. Existing in this world is much easier now that the wall has been knocked down. I think if people realized early on that avatar and person are the same, and they never put up those walls, SL would look about the same now. But in the early days it would have looked a lot like it does now.
[08:39] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: ppl come to sl when feeling low or just need a time out
[08:39] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: And Blaze, Svarga still exists
[08:39] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Nice point Trep
[08:39] Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin): It would really mess with the "roleplay" story-making element of SL which is HUGE, if we didn't have avis.
[08:39] May Beck (mairead.mcconnell): self expression through your avatar is half the fun imho
[08:39] Speaker: Mairead McConnell says: self expression through your avatar is half the fun imho
[08:39] DrFran Babcock: love Svarga
[08:39] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: love Svarga
[08:39] Ingrid Ingersoll: avatars were prims at first i think
[08:39] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: Orange clouds e-e
[08:40] DrFran Babcock: Primitar
[08:40] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: Primitar
[08:40] Jessika Jenvieve: no body - no shoes - omg
[08:40] Ingrid Ingersoll: yeaH A "PRIMITAR"
[08:40] Giselle Lacombe: Alex
[08:40] Chantal Harvey: no hair....eeeek
[08:40] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: no hair....eeeek
[08:40] Speaker: Alta Thiemen says: No hats?! :(
[08:40] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Ruths of the (virtual) world unite!
[08:40] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: avatar is important so people can help remember you / identify you / etc.
[08:40] Prokofy Neva: I have an avatar with my RL name too. I see them as a continuum, not separate.
[08:40] Leaha Mistwallow: shivers at the thought
[08:40] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): mmmm, chips
[08:40] Saffia Widdershins: What's the Virtual World where people can only have upper halves of their bodies?
[08:40] Speaker: Saffia Widdershins says: What's the Virtual World where people can only have upper halves of their bodies?
[08:40] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: who brought the dip
[08:40] DrFran Babcock: yay, High Fidelity !!!!! Spatial Audio
[08:40] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: yay, High Fidelity !!!!! Spatial Audio
[08:41] Prokofy Neva: it looks like a typewriter key, not a casino chip
[08:41] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: /me smiles
[08:41] Garnet Psaltery: The heads aren't relating to each other - having seats makes no sense
[08:41] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: all you need is love love is all you need in second life
[08:41] DrFran BabcockDrFran Babcock missed 3D HiFi a lot
[08:41] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: /me missed 3D HiFi a lot
[08:42] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: i used to enter hifi when it was a vr application
[08:42] Prokofy Neva: he could probably add an avatar on those easily enough
[08:42] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: me too!
[08:42] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: Saffia, upper halves only is I think Facebook Horizon?
[08:42] Lurai Kir (luraikir): Well, an avatar is a form of expression in itself, and potentially a statement as well. Appearance can communicate as much as actual text can
[08:42] Speaker: Luraikir Resident says: Well, an avatar is a form of expression in itself, and potentially a statement as well. Appearance can communicate as much as actual text can
[08:42] Prokofy Neva: maybe he wanted to read the market of people who fear avatarization
[08:42] Quron Dagger: HiFi was awesome with the VR, until you accidentally teleport yourself to a cube high up in the sky.
[08:42] Ingrid Ingersoll: VR headsets are still expensive
[08:43] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: what i need a is sl app so can be offline
[08:43] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: /me shouts and claps
[08:43] Garnet Psaltery: What is the purpose of a world that looks like one made for bodies if there aren't any bodies?
[08:43] DrFran Babcock: sigh
[08:43] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: sigh
[08:43] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: an old pic
[08:43] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: from the old Hifi
[08:43] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: that it is
[08:44] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: HiFi's 2D version reminds me of my time on The Palace, years ago
[08:44] DrFran Babcock: yay, Judas and Thoys
[08:44] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: yay, Judas and Thoys
[08:44] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: (A 2D graphical chat room/world platform)
[08:44] Kathryn Elisabeth (kathrynlisbeth): No bodies, No fun.... No fun, No Point.
[08:44] Saffia Widdershins: There's a conflict between expensive headsets like Occulus Rift etc, as opposed to VR that uses phones.
[08:44] Speaker: Saffia Widdershins says: There's a conflict between expensive headsets like Occulus Rift etc, as opposed to VR that uses phones.
[08:44] Leaha Mistwallow: nods
[08:44] Lurai Kir (luraikir): OOF yeah. My PC is currently screaming just being here, yet at the same time, I love seeing all the other avatars, and what people come up with
[08:44] Speaker: Luraikir Resident says: OOF yeah. My PC is currently screaming just being here, yet at the same time, I love seeing all the other avatars, and what people come up with
[08:44] DrFran Babcock: VR has taken off
[08:44] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: VR has taken off
[08:44] Chantal Harvey: well, in sl, a lot of the old familiar faces came back during the pandemic
[08:44] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: well, in sl, a lot of the old familiar faces came back during the pandemic
[08:44] Ingrid Ingersoll: I can answer that...because VR headsets are expensive and people are afraid they might be too cut off from their environment with a box on their heads
[08:45] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: quest 2's are flying off shelves, i know a good number of "regular folks" who keep telling me about "Beat Saber! You have to try it!"
[08:45] Ingrid Ingersoll: would you know if your kid is crying? your house burning down?
[08:45] May Beck (mairead.mcconnell): not everyone can use VR it makes me feel sick personally , motion sickness
[08:45] Speaker: Mairead McConnell says: not everyone can use VR it makes me feel sick personally , motion sickness
[08:45] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: ingrid: open ear headphones
[08:45] Prokofy Neva: If VR took off, why did Best Buy close their Oculus Rift section where my daughter's boyfriend used to work, where they gave him a package of paper towels and cleaner every week because of audience reaction
[08:45] Ingrid Ingersoll: alright but $$$
[08:45] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: augrmented reality is the only one that makes sense as a plausable platform moving forward
[08:45] Kathryn Elisabeth (kathrynlisbeth): Is hard to take notes in crayon (Purple for important Business), when hafta keep taking a helmet off.
[08:45] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: sl rules when i don't crash #
[08:45] DrFran Babcock: VRChat has greater concurrency than SL
[08:45] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: VRChat has greater concurrency than SL
[08:46] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: Ingrid, good point. VR headsets don't allow "multitasking" as well when those other tasks are related to your physical world environment or family responsibilities, etc
[08:46] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: If only those headset weren't expensive ... ;-;
[08:46] Trep (trep.cosmo): VR is inaccessible in many ways
[08:46] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: quest 2 has a mode where you can tap the side twice and see black/white infared of your surroundings. you can walk around and see everything in black/white
[08:46] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: they've already started working on these issues
[08:46] DrFran Babcock: yes, Damenon
[08:46] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: yes, Damenon
[08:46] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: but only one FB acct, because they want it to be real
[08:47] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: yeah FB is annoying like that
[08:47] Jesse (jpg0809): I've had a family friend buy a whole nintendo switch just to play animal crossing and they weren't even a gamer. I just let them play for a bit and the amount of promotion animal crossing got made that a common thing for many I feel.
[08:47] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: "iphonisation" love that
[08:47] Mal Burns (malburns.writer): Drax mentionjed spending 40 minutes guiding someone into the platform - this makes a bkig diffwerence but not everybody can find someone to do that for them. The first ste[p;s are still daunting and use if harder than mesaging or video.
[08:47] Chantal Harvey: yes
[08:47] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: yes
[08:47] Xerses Goff: To get something with a frame rate that won't make me sick, requires a very expensive computer
[08:47] ALLINCAPS: people wont use a platform where ur child will punch u in the nuts and u wont see it coming
[08:47] Speaker: ALLINCAPS Resident says: people wont use a platform where ur child will punch u in the nuts and u wont see it coming
[08:48] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: FB prfiles are ju
[08:48] Tex (softers): I would like your opinion on the concept that Second life identifies as a Social Networking Site and Linden Labs has banned voice from almost all safe hubs and welcome areas, is this not a contradiction in its face?
[08:48] Speaker: Softers Resident says: I would like your opinion on the concept that Second life identifies as a Social Networking Site and Linden Labs has banned voice from almost all safe hubs and welcome areas, is this not a contradiction in its face?
[08:48] Speaker: Luraikir Resident says: I mean, yeah, me and my mom actually stay connected via Discord, and it's amazingly convenient for exchanging info, images, text files, etc
[08:49] DrFran Babcock: I see a tip jar on the stage. Used to be you could not raise money during SLB. Has that changed?
[08:49] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: I see a tip jar on the stage. Used to be you could not raise money during SLB. Has that changed?
[08:49] Thank you for coming to the SL Book Club shouts: Thank you for your tip Prokofy Neva ! Your contribution helps a lot!
[08:49] Garnet Psaltery: Because the hubs with voice don't have social networking, they have fighting and bullying.
[08:50] Jesse (jpg0809): I agree with Xerses. I've dropped over a grand on my pc and a wired connection and I still have issues. The average person won't do that unless they are invested already
[08:50] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: A lot of creativity ways ♥
[08:50] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: there was time, when I was quite new, having to prove rl age
[08:50] Prokofy Neva: I bought a painting for $300 at SL18B from an artist who didn't realize something was left for sale and when I asked him for the LM to his gallery well he didn't have one devoted only to himself, tier is costly
[08:50] Silas MerlinSilas Merlin hugs moles
[08:50] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: plz dont philip
[08:50] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: be nice to me
[08:50] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: ;[
[08:51] Itsa Mole: Ty, Silas
[08:51] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: LOL
[08:51] Ingrid Ingersoll: LOL pHILIP
[08:51] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: lolll
[08:51] Chantal Harvey: haha
[08:51] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: haha
[08:51] DrFran Babcock: hi, Silas
[08:51] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: hi, Silas
[08:51] Speaker: AngelsDen Resident says: lol
[08:51] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: HAHAHA
[08:51] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: xd
[08:51] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: Only voice
[08:52] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: That's a very important point, Philip
[08:52] Silas MerlinSilas Merlin waves too DrFran Babcock
[08:52] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: i love voice better
[08:52] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: quest 2 has the keyboard that shows up in VR now, its a physical keyboard that you can also see in VR, which is neat
[08:52] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: For Deaf folks it's a big issue, and also for folks who have a hard time typing
[08:53] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: hehe
[08:53] Tex (softers): i'm a two finger typer I prefer voice
[08:53] Speaker: Softers Resident says: i'm a two finger typer I prefer voice
[08:53] Mal Burns (malburns.writer): agrees very much on headset discomfort
[08:53] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: what if someone is blind hows that work ?
[08:53] DrFran Babcock: I do feel isolated in the headset
[08:53] Speaker: DrFran Babcock says: I do feel isolated in the headset
[08:53] Speaker: AngelsDen Resident says: I like the delay that comes with typing..allows me to edit and express myself best
[08:53] Speaker: Alta Thiemen says: So we need to hire Joeys like in Neuromancer
[08:53] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: i prefer typing
[08:53] Speaker: Arietu Kiyori says: So true
[08:53] Tex (softers): My wife was blind and could not use SL
[08:53] Speaker: Softers Resident says: My wife was blind and could not use SL
[08:53] Prokofy Neva: I live near a VR store where you can come in and rent a headset and try these different installations but I never do
[08:54] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: I think another thing to remember, especially when comparing concurrency numbers and talking about headsets, is that even these newer social platforms w/"VR" in their names are pretty heavily skewed a lot of times toward desktop users
[08:54] Prokofy Neva: Google is retiring their cardboard thing
[08:54] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: i need a job in sl
[08:54] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: oh wow Prok! i had no idea?
[08:55] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: so if there a job going ill take it
[08:55] Garnet Psaltery: Visit the Community Forum, Joeey
[08:55] Garnet Psaltery: There's an Employment section
[08:55] Chantal Harvey: yes i went to the amsterdam vr headset movietheater, we all sat with a oculus rift...so weird
[08:55] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: yes i went to the amsterdam vr headset movietheater, we all sat with a oculus rift...so weird
[08:55] Tex (softers): start your own business... I did
[08:55] Speaker: Softers Resident says: start your own business... I did
[08:55] Jesse (jpg0809): The best social platforms would ideally compensate for both typing and voice and consider other conditions that may aid differently-abled users. It doesn't need to just be one or the other.
[08:55] Ingrid Ingersoll: yeah but you're in a theatre for a few hours
[08:55] Prokofy Neva: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/03/googles-vr-dreams-are-dead-google-cardboard-is-no-longer-for-sale/
[08:56] Garnet Psaltery: Dances with Wolves - four hours - never again
[08:56] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: well, turning a phone into a headset is kind of old school - the price of an all in one VR headset is getting super affordable
[08:56] Kathryn Elisabeth (kathrynlisbeth): Well VR trick for a platform is 'Why not both?'. Sometimes VR makes sense, sometimes it don't. Is all current use case, for the end user. Like what Tom just said "Are watching a thing, are diving into a thing" Basically sometimes ya wanna be 3rd person, sometimes 1st person
[08:57] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: Oculus Go is next to nothing
[08:57] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: Prok, they also discontinued their slightly higher end Daydream View platform a while back :( I had one and actually liked it. Sadly, an Android update meant my Daydream no longer worked with my phone, even when it had worked perfectly w/same phone before
[08:57] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Indeed
[08:57] Jessika Jenvieve: SL is excellent training on how to repel trolls
[08:57] Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin): VR was fun in Sansar late at nights, but tough to multi-task in RL. Same with voicing in SL (or even listening to voice in SL sometimes); it makes it hard to multi-task with RL.
[08:57] Ingrid Ingersoll: Thanks guys, really interesting chat
[08:57] Prokofy Neva: Erik, remember their very short-lived virtual world called Lively\
[08:58] Solas Enchantment: grins
[08:58] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Thanks for all the awesome comments!
[08:58] Chantal Harvey: yea lively, i loved that
[08:58] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: yea lively, i loved that
[08:58] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: LOL - yes, that screenshot doesn't quite capture the moment
[08:58] Speaker: Philip Rosedale says: yes - the format of voice + text is so unique. I love it.
[08:58] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: google lively
[08:58] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: i was involved with that
[08:58] Prokofy Neva: You should leave up the slideshow for us to look at
[08:58] Chantal Harvey: really, oooh
[08:58] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: really, oooh
[08:59] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: I think this event is an excuse for Drax to show us his vacation photos
[08:59] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: they took one of the founders of IMVU over, Guymon i believe
[08:59] Ingrid Ingersoll: haha
[08:59] Leaha Mistwallow: lol
[08:59] Ingrid Ingersoll: ADD WATER TO MAINLAND CONTINENTS
[08:59] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: and google shut it down asap, which was GOOD for everyone else involved in virtual worlds/environments, imagine if google pulled everyone in and crashed it... it was better no one really got involved.
[08:59] Leaha Mistwallow: lol
[08:59] Ingrid Ingersoll: SO MUCH EMPTY LAND
[09:00] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: lower land prices
[09:00] Garnet Psaltery: Revisit the mainland terrain
[09:00] Tex (softers): Restore voice to all regions
[09:00] Speaker: Softers Resident says: Restore voice to all regions

[09:00] Jesse (jpg0809): PROMOTION AND ADVERTISEMENT
[09:00] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: Linden Lab should give everyone a dumbed down mesh body/head so people are all on the same level playing field when they enter SL.
[09:00] Chantal Harvey: philip...come back
[09:00] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: philip...come back
[09:00] Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin)Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin) giggles

[09:01] Speaker: Numberofthebeast Angelus says: Bridge Second Life to Unreal Engine 4/5
[09:01] Jessika Jenvieve: voice/chat is a fantastic brain stimulant
[09:01] Quron Dagger: Better SL-RL connection, like shopping in SL for RL items?
[09:01] Maryposa Papillon (maryposa.paine): what did phillip think of second life used on CSI new york tv show
[09:01] Prokofy Neva: Will Wright said you can't see a slide show go faster than I think he said 360? and he tested it and you might have a subliminal memory
[09:01] Chantal Harvey: yes Tom!
[09:01] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: yes Tom!
[09:02] Solas Enchantment: I agree with Tom
[09:02] Speaker: AngelsDen Resident says: make sim crossings for fast vehicles easier/smoother
[09:02] Ingrid Ingersoll: i feel like mobile would be really tough for sl
[09:02] Tex (softers): not to mention freedom of speech issues
[09:02] Speaker: Softers Resident says: not to mention freedom of speech issues
[09:02] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: I love the creativity of many designers in sl
[09:02] Kathryn Elisabeth (kathrynlisbeth): Mobile & Optimized Mesh Bodies -- Is more fun if can see others and make fun of how they are dressed, instead of Jelly dolls
[09:02] Chantal Harvey: sl is booming with art
[09:02] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: sl is booming with art
[09:02] Prokofy Neva: Fix search which has been broken for six month
[09:02] Speaker: Tamarind Silverfall says: Address the current low limit of the amount of avatars in a region.
[09:02] Ingrid Ingersoll: Philip, Tom have a look at some of the content in SL now while you're here. it's AMAZING. really professional level
[09:03] Saffia Widdershins: People all around the world use cellphones. You want 5 billion - you aim at THAT market.
[09:03] Speaker: Saffia Widdershins says: People all around the world use cellphones. You want 5 billion - you aim at THAT market.
[09:03] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: /me nods at Saffia
[09:03] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: phone = sl = will be online all the time anywhere in the world
[09:03] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: It is really nice to go to events and see lots of new stuff come out by designers
[09:03] Speaker: Luraikir Resident says: Guess SL is something that tends to keep looping on itself like some sort of mobius loop lol
[09:03] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: exactly saffia, back to mobile
[09:03] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): yes, improve client performance and make mobile-compatible clients.

[09:04] Mal Burns (malburns.writer): demonstrations can have major impact in IRL
[09:04] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: The voice + text really is amazing for teaching, because you can lecture and then it turns into an interactive convo
[09:04] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Good example with Minecraft
[09:04] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: minecraft is good
[09:04] Tex (softers): imagine trying to help new people without voice when you don't type well
[09:04] Speaker: Softers Resident says: imagine trying to help new people without voice when you don't type well
[09:05] Jesse (jpg0809): Idk how people can play games on their phone when the desktop programs are waaaay more comfortable to navigate.
[09:05] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: the pic i threw up on the board= this btw is a MOCK up for a machinima :)
[09:05] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: TONS of people play fortnite on mobile
[09:05] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: true Daemon
[09:05] Chantal Harvey: so true
[09:05] Speaker: Chantal Harvey says: so true
[09:05] Prokofy Neva: cash out
[09:05] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: not on iphone tho.... RIGHT EPIC
[09:05] Prokofy Neva: where do you cash out from Facebook?
[09:05] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Indeed
[09:05] Solas Enchantment: I love the RL edit in SL
[09:05] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: oh yes, the greeter idea, need greeters from different timezone, but they won't employ folks outside the US. Whis is a big handicap I think
[09:05] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: join secondlife u will be hooked for life soon as u get use to it
[09:06] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: Yes Solas
[09:06] Jesse (jpg0809): My niece plays roblox and its eerily similar in the way people create their own games and experiences
[09:06] Solas Enchantment: real time editing
[09:06] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: VRChat doesnt have $$$$$$ money movement
[09:06] Trep (trep.cosmo): The game Atlas attempted interconnected servers. I'll never complain about slow sim crossings after playing that
[09:06] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: LOL Trep
[09:06] Speaker: AngelsDen Resident says: lol
[09:06] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: building is fun : D
[09:06] Maryposa Papillon (maryposa.paine): what did phillip think of second life being used on CSI new york tv show a few years back.
[09:06] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: second life find all them crazy friend
[09:06] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: a successful virtual world needs a way for the content creators to get rewarded for their efforts, and our current agreed upon method is $$$
[09:06] Jesse (jpg0809): I do also think theres a bigger demographic for kids and preteens and people see adults who play "video games" as childish
[09:07] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: as more things move to outside software, i find it's harder to socialize in SL, as we used to all meet at the sandbox and watch someone build and we'd learn, now everything seems to pulll folk out of SL, marketplace, blender, photoshop, everything requires you to look outside SL, not inside SL
[09:07] Tex (softers): we have linguists from all over the world dedicated to helping new folks in SL
[09:07] Speaker: Softers Resident says: we have linguists from all over the world dedicated to helping new folks in SL
[09:07] DrFran Babcock: Philip is a visionary

[09:07] Silas Merlin: Philip is our god-father
[09:07] Prokofy Neva: There is a sea monster behind you
[09:08] Kathryn Elisabeth (kathrynlisbeth): WRITE A MANUAL and Keep it Updated! Not just a Wiki style FAQ. SL ain't much more complex than a 'Realistic Flight Simulator', is just needs a core reference to cite a section so a noob can look up a thing. Trick is not need to say 'So and So Brand HUD is <blank>, instead just define a hud and 'how to paint your avatar', etc... define the assets and how they Work Together..
[09:08] Garnet Psaltery: Philip. you are missed here.
[09:08] Speaker: AngelsDen Resident says: place that opened new opportunities
[09:08] Speaker: Numberofthebeast Angelus says: make a Wish Second Life
[09:08] Trep (trep.cosmo): Ditching web search, or at least making the search algorithm better, and bringing back dwell stipends and the in-client events calendar would be great as well!
[09:09] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: why i love secondlife u can do stuff u can't do in real life
[09:09] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: like fly =D
[09:09] Speaker: AngelsDen Resident says: or sail
[09:09] Ingrid Ingersoll: ABSOLUTELY a haven for amateurs
[09:09] Prokofy Neva: Yes, Tom, very important part. Democracy of creativity. In Sinespace you have to get a license to sell.

[09:14] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: the highway with so many potholes
[09:14] Ingrid Ingersoll: yeah i think there is a time when we need less. people want to login, they don't need the high tech necessarily, they want to connect with people, make some stuff. that's it!

[09:18] Maryposa Papillon (maryposa.paine): my SL VCR still blinks 12:00 to this day...
[09:18] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): in SL, you actively walk to the content; but in other social media, you get the content fed to you via the "Feed".
[09:18] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: it is amazing how much you can do in secondlife. so many places to go to
[09:19] Speaker: Dawn Pienaar says: hi number lol
[09:19] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: everyone in second life is turning into zombies
[09:19] Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin): "Feed" by M.T. Anderson, Zzri ;)

[09:19] Speaker: Numberofthebeast Angelus says: hi Tulip !
[09:19] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: hahaha Kip!!
[09:19] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: The cover of nickelback song called "cool avatr" now over 10 years, was a good one.
[09:19] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: one of my fave books
[09:19] Kippy Crowley Numbers (kiptin): :D
[09:20] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: post the link!
[09:20] Solas Enchantment: Yes so true Tom
[09:20] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: They're discussing a potential law in uk to allow people to be disconnected
[09:20] Ubit Umarov: ( militar say around 200 no ??)
[09:20] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: working at home shouldn't mean always working
[09:20] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: Very true, Tom. Socail networks like Facebook and Twitter tend to create a "flattening" effect of friendship/following that don't take into account the different types of levels of friendship and connection
[09:20] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: wish my land was more flat its all over the place
[09:20] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: *Social
[09:21] Zzri Avian (zri.portal): oooh, interesting book; thanks, Kippy.

[09:21] Prokofy Neva: I was so glad to go back to Lenz' and get a BLT and the sandwich maker had COVID like so many food workers and lost like 40 pounds, I was glad he made it
[09:22] Prokofy Neva: Loose ties
[09:22] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: In that way, I did appreciate the Google+ idea of different "circles" as a way to try to address that (though I never really got into the platform for other reasons)
[09:22] ღMARIEღ (shermarie): yes, I agree
[09:22] Speaker: Shermarie Resident says: yes, I agree
[09:22] Speaker: Daemon Blackflag says: i only add people on linkedin that are related to virtual worlds / business interactions, whoever tries adding 1,000s of random people to "build their network" is silly and is just getting spam.
[09:22] Speaker: Skarla Georgette says: aquantances are like the croutons on a ceasar salad, they're not the main focus, but you really want them there because it's better with them
[09:22] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: /me happy i can do more
[09:22] Jesse (jpg0809): Animal crossing has a co op mode and it was so nice to just sit together and fish in the game with my family. It's very similar to playing a board game with friends but it's different also.
[09:22] Ingrid Ingersoll: during the pandemic, it was nice to log in and see old sl friends and putter around. I'm in montreal and we were in lockdown alot of the time, and didn't always want to socialize with the people you live with (ha)
[09:22] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: and that's a brilliant connection, sl clubs
[09:22] Prokofy Neva: SL is perfect for a life of loose ties which is really
[09:22] Trep (trep.cosmo): Single serving friends that you go back for seconds
[09:22] Prokofy Neva: weak ties that's it
[09:22] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: you meet new ppl there
[09:22] Prokofy Neva: well I have an alt that tried to get on the island once Draxtor!
[09:23] Jesse (jpg0809): also you can build a community together in animal crossing. Apparently, I'm a bit of a dictator lol
[09:23] Speaker: Robotshaz Resident says: it is so nice to meet random people
[09:23] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: not enoguht Prok
[09:23] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: i give you a VIP pass ;)
[09:23] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: oh, that'd be good
[09:23] Tex (softers): contact sets
[09:23] Speaker: Softers Resident says: contact sets
[09:23] Speaker: Joeey Vaher says: second life helps me forget real life troubles
[09:23] Prokofy Neva: People like to be furry woodland creatures selling home made things in the forest -- but you know they have that on Ragland Shire
[09:23] ღMARIEღ (shermarie): My profile quote..."You don't meet people by accident...they are meant to cross your path."
[09:23] Speaker: Shermarie Resident says: My profile quote..."You don't meet people by accident...they are meant to cross your path."
[09:23] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: There's also the "Calling Card" in SL, though I don't know how many people actually use them
[09:23] Speaker: Draxtor Despres says: we are getting the boot at bottom of hour
[09:24] Speaker: AngelsDen Resident says: I liked the calling cards
[09:24] Speaker: Blaze Greybeard says: brilliant idea

[09:24] Speaker: Softers Resident says: hello... its called contact sets

[09:24] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: And yeah, contact sets, as Tex mentioned
[09:24] Prokofy Neva: groups and group LAND that has to go with
[09:24] Speaker: Erik Mondrian says: (Calling cards are different)
[09:24] Prokofy Neva: which a lot of other worlds have nothing remotely like
[09:24] Speaker: Tom Bukowski says: LOL love your slide show Drax
[09:24] Ingrid Ingersoll: honestly SL was "comforting" during the pandemic
