This feels weird.
@Juno Rowland and I are at Wolem Wobbit's gig at HIE. But none of us is on stage with him, accompanying him on keys as usual.
Apparently, most of the audience has crashed recently. I suspect the lack of a backing band to be the reason.

CW: The Metaverse can't be that dead with so many virtual events I could attend right now; CW: long post (ca. 1,250 characters), two quote-posts, undescribed image in one of the quote-posts, non-Meta Metaverse
You can try all you want to convince me that the Metaverse and 3-D virtual worlds are dead. Stillborn even.
Or that their time will come in the near future. As in they aren't there yet.
In the meantime, I'll spend a nice weekend at virtual events such as Hypergrid International Expo.

#HypergridIternationalExpo or #HIE begins with a party today, come explore the 100+ Expo booths and listen to some great music. Plan to attend the talks and amazing art show on Saturday and SUnday, and why not get inspired to participate next year!

I'd go to the opening events tonight, but they collide with my regular weekly virtual party. And I don't really want to log in two Jupiters on the same machine and attend two parties.
And I'm not even talking about the 80s roller party in Kitely yet that @Juno Rowland and I were invited to, and that she would probably enjoy more than I.

tl;dr: Next Hypergrid International Expo will be on Saturday, April 20th, and Sunday, April 21st. Same location, but new booths.
Yes, that's only a bit more than half a year after last time. But last time was about six years after the time before that.

CW: OpenSim-related Follow Friday post; CW: long (well over 3,000 characters)
Here's a premiere: the first #FollowFriday for #OpenSimulator.
For those who don't know what I'm talking about: OpenSimulator, also called #OpenSim, is a free and #OpenSource platform for 3-D #VirtualWorlds that uses largely the same technology as #SecondLife. It was launched as early as 2007. It mostly became a network of #federated, interconnected worlds (#grids) when the #Hypergrid was introduced in 2008. And "#Metaverse" has been a part of the standard OpenSim vocabulary since before 2010, too.
It currently measures about 420 public grids at various sizes from tiny to slightly larger than Second Life itself and countless private grids, the vast majority of which are on the Hypergrid.
So without further ado, here are some suggestions:- Shelenn Ayres

CW: Sighting of a lioness with her family in a virtual world; CW: eye contact, ec, stale meme, only Germans will get this
While going around #DorenasWorld and taking pictures for our #HypergridInternationalExpo booth, I came across something alarmingly dangerous.
A #lioness.
And a male lion.
And three cubs.
I regret nothing.

@Holocluck Henly There's the #OSCC (OpenSimulator Community Conference; #OSCC23 in December; official website) which is an annual multiple-day conference with five adjacent expo regions.
Then there's the #HypergridInternationalExpo, #HIE in short (October 7th/8th; official website) which is practically the same for presenters and an audience whose native language is not English. And it doesn't have five standard regions worth of expo, "only" some booths along a path.
Then there's #OpenSimFest. You already know that, I guess. It doesn't have a website AFAIK, but here is a post on #OpenSimWorld.
The nearest major event is #OSG16B, the 16th #GridAnniversary of #OSgrid, the first, oldest and biggest #OpenSim #grid and the one with the most users (July 24th to 30th).
You can be glad that you haven't asked me in February. I would have had to explain #CornflakesWeek to you. -
@Holocluck Henly Well, you've still got some time. #OSG16B comes first, later this month.
Reminds me, I have to make a booth for #HypergridInternationalExpo. -
Just a few reminders for #OpenSimulator #events this year:
The first and oldest #OpenSim grid, #OSgrid, will most likely celebrate its 16th birthday next month, probably towards the end of the month. The exact dates and the schedule for #OSG16B have yet to be announced, though.
The next date will be #OpenSimFest. Led by @Shelenn Ayres, #OSFest2023 is scheduled for September 15th to 30th and will feature events as well as (mostly commercial) merchants. See also here.
Not much time to catch your breath until #HypergridInternationalExpo (official website) which will return on October 7th and 8th after six years. And again, the organisers @Thirza and @Mal Burns Opensim are in the Fediverse already. #HIE is basically the #OSCC for non-English speakers; otherwise, the concept is very similar.
Speaking of which, we'll most likely have another OpenSimulator Community Conference this year. I expect #OSCC23 to take place in early December again, but this date is still TBA, too.
