Today on NovaLandia: "OpenSim: A Grid Through Time (Part 1)"
I am a fan—and have been for years—of decentralized media: the ability to host your own thing and keep your data safe from big corporations and profit-seeking entities entirely. And, to be frank (don’...

Interestingly, we stayed in-world yesterday until well past 22:00 when DENIC had already fscked up.
Either OpenSim doesn't muck around with domains unless you log in or go Hypergridding.
That, or our grid domain is not DNSSEC-signed. After all, the grid website doesn't have any SSL encryption yet either. And we did have visitors coming in from the Hypergrid past 21:00.

Tomorrow is my sixth rezday, @Juno Rowland's fifth rezday and also International Jazz Day.
A pity that there doesn't seem to be any good opportunity to celebrate either. Today's event at the Moka Efti may pretty well have been the only DJ event with a focus on jazz in all April.

@HG Safari will take us to (virtual) Tromsø in the Wolf Territories tomorrow evening. One of the things that place is known for is that its EEP daycycle is automatically sync'd with real-life Tromsø.
This was the first time that I've checked a real-life weather report before visiting a virtual location. And it won't stay the only time.

Update to my OpenSimulator docker image earlier this AM (GMT). This switches screen for basic console mode on the server, slimming down the image and letting OpenSim work with Docker natively.
If you preferred screen, pin the ref or switch tag to 0.9.3.0-screen.

What St Patrick's Day in OpenSim means:
Almost everyone is wearing green or even going beyond that. (Seriously, you have to see my brother.)
The DJ is playing only music from Ireland.
If you're lucky, every other solo dancer dances an Irish jig. Even on high-heeled shoes which I do not recommend. That's why I always wear flat shoes on St Patrick's Day.
Some may be drunk enough to be able to pronounce "Áine Caoimhe".
And: Shamrocks. Shamrocks everywhere. Including four-leaf shamrocks. People even yay shamrocks.

@Pipeliner Depends on how you define "metaverse".
"The Metaverse" as in "Zuckerberg's Metaverse" as in "The Facebook Metaverse" as in "Meta Metaverse", actually Meta Horizon, is dwindling, as is Meta Platform's own support for it because they need all hands where the money is made: AI.
"The Metaverse" by its official definition is no longer booming, but far from dead. There are hundreds of monolithic, stand-alone virtual worlds out there that are largely incompatible with each other, from crypto-based get-rich-quick schemes that were haphazardly whipped up during the Metaverse hype of 2021/2022 to Second Life which was launched in 2002 and opened to the public in 2023, and which is still evolving.
What @Metaverse Standards Forum is talking about is the creation of an interconnected network of free, ideally open-source 3-D virtual worlds. It's being considered a first, something that has never been done before. The general consensus is that all virtual worlds that have existed so far were or still are non-free, closed-source, proprietary, stand-alone, monolithic silos. What's happening here is widely regarded as the first attempt ever at changing this.
Only that it isn't. No, really, it isn't. This has been done before long ago.
Free, open-source, decentralised, host-your-own-world 3-D virtual worlds have existed at least since January, 2007. That was when OpenSimulator was launched, a free, open-source re-implementation of the technology of Second Life, largely compatible with some third-party Second Life client applications ("viewers"). (Official website with no HTTPS support; article by me: Okay, so what is this OpenSim thing?)
The first OpenSim-based world ("grid") open to the general public was launched in July, 2007: OSgrid (official website). As you can see, it still exists. And it's the second-biggest grid and barely smaller than Second Life in area.
Also, in mid-2008, the Hypergrid was introduced which made it possible for avatars from one grid to teleport to another, outfit, inventory and all. From that point on, OpenSim was not just decentralised, but even federated. In other words: A federated network of independent 3-D virtual worlds based on free, open-source server software has been around for almost 18 years. And it has used the term "Metaverse" for even longer.
It isn't exactly tiny either. We're talking about a combined area of over four times Second Life. The biggest and most active grid is the Wolf Territories Grid, launched in 2020 by @Lone Wolf. It measures some 33,500 Second Life standard regions or about 2,200 square kilometres. That's not only 25% bigger than Second Life, but with much, much more room to grow.

You haven't partied in the Hypergrid until you've celebrated Cornflakes Week among dinkies. While wearing a plunger that one of the dinkies gave you on top of a top hat.
Happening right now.

@Metaverse Standards Forum So these people are about to re-invent OpenSimulator? Something that has been around since 2007 and has even used the word "metaverse" as a regular part of its jargon since 2007?

Okay, so what is this OpenSim thing?
How decentralised is OpenSim?

CW: Communication between the Fediverse and OpenSim is being worked on again; CW: long (over 600 characters), Fediverse meta, Fediverse-beyond-Mastodon meta
Work has been resumed on establishing connections between the Fediverse and the likewise decentralised metaverse, i.e. OpenSimulator.
For now, the only feature that's actually implemented is sending OpenSim group messages out via ActivityPub. However, it has been tested against the opposite end of the Fediverse from Mastodon: Hubzilla, (streams) and Forte.
