    Would a Second Life-type virtual world set in space be redundant?

    It would be like Dual Universe but less focused on voxels and more on prims, mesh, and stuff like that. There would also be less of a focus on PvP and other game elements and more on avatars, socialization, creativity and expression. Instead of SL's 2D plane world, you can explore and own...

    Thought I'd share a bad experience with a landlord in SL.

    So, I was renting a homestead with a particular land lord for a long, long time. Yesterday morning, I suddenly lost the ability to access my land. I had over 3 weeks rent paid on the box so was of course quite confused and thought for sure I must have jacked up something with the security. I...

    New Inventory Features In Latest Update

    So the new inventory preview functionality is out, which allows you to attach a preview image to any piece of inventory. One thing I didn't realize is that the new Open in New Window option (separate from Show in New Window confusingly) will show thumbnails of the preview images of any items in...

    Nobody cares about role play! (The role play discussion thread)

    I thought there should be a forum, or at least a thread for just general discussion about role play.... what sims are fun to go to, what is fun to do and what your pet peeves are. One general pet peeve of mine is that I noticed is that many "characters" people role play fall into one of two...

    16 years in Second Life for me, my rezday was July 19th

    Seriously, it's kind of freaky. The only internet community I've been involved with longer has been Slashdot. Do not ask me how much I've spent on SL fashion, I don't want to know. It has served me well as dysphoria treatment. Yes, I know, I shouldn't use it like that. I still shop...

    Philip Rosedale BACK at Second Life as strategic advisor

    He was before my time in SL, so I don't know if his return (albeit as "strategic advisor") is something to feel good or bad about. https://community.secondlife.com/blogs/entry/9817-hello-again-to-second-life-founder-philip-rosedale/ EDIT: Anya Ristow beat me to the news, so someone please feel...

    Someone really fucked the Internet so we can't log into SL.

    Grid knows who broke the internet this time, but I couldn't log in! https://secondlife-status.statuspage.io/ okay I've managed to log in, but I don't see many online. Grid knows if I can even teleport or.....shop. (faints)

    Rezday Reflections

    Today's my 13th rezday as Mona Eberhardt, so I thought I'd finally write a blog post to coincide with this anniversary. However, rather than give you yet another smug retrospective listing all the Second Life developments I witnessed, I decided to look back at the days when I was an escort...

    Some thoughts on the topic of (Second) Life after Ebbe

    Less than a week has passed since Ebbe Altberg passed away, and discussions as to who his successor should be, or – at least – what properties the new CEO should possess have already started to sprout like mushrooms on ageing trees in a damp forest. A popular argument says that the new CEO needs...

    Premium gift large texture rant

    Picked up the premium gift Halloween decorating pack thingy from the dispenser. Took out one of the gifts at random, a wheelbarrow with three pumpkins in it. Each pumpkin and the wheelbarrow is a 1024x1024 texture. That's right, four x 1024x1024 for one item only. The textures aren't...

    Land holdings and group deeds

    For most of my time in SL, I've rented and/or lived in a Linden home. A few months ago, I gave up my Linden home and bought a 1024 mainland parcel. I have two questions about land ownership. In my dashboard, it says the following under Land Holdings: Allowed holdings: 1,536.00 square meters...
