When I taught art at Wa He Lut my self-devised plan (since I'm not a teacher) was to only teach real skills that students might use in the future to earn a living or enhance their lives. For instance they learned how to make a T-shirt design then apply it to a silkscreen with photo emulsion and screen print multiple shirts of two colours. Another thing they learned through various projects was how to use tools - from hammers to electric drills to coping saws.

It was great to see boys and girls who at first recoiled in fear later know how and when to use tools properly and with confidence. Most of my children had no one in their family teaching basic skills so I felt it was important and empowering that they learn them in my program. So, I'm happy to see this Basic Self-Reliance/Maker Curriculum for Kids.

Laundry Update

The dude below used up my laundry detergent, then said, "Oh, sorry," and said I should use some he had. I asked him to replace mine and put my name on it, which never happened; I used his once (it's pushed near my stuff but has softener in it which makes me fall down so I just used it once but thought maybe I would use it for non-sock loads) however it's completely empty now.

I think he hates me now as I complained about 2 a.m. laundry activities, which is too bad. I asked if he still had my mail key could he please give it back, and have had no response.

I'd like to have my dwelling in a blimp and travel the globe. I'd tie laundry onto fishing line and tow it in the sea. I feel generally dissatisfied and uncomfortable.


 
Big Dee

When I was a child I wouldn't drink milk, eat ice cream or butter, and wouldn't eat even a tiny bit of fatty meat. Later I started eating butter and even ice cream a bit, but milk was a definite bleccchhh right up until perhaps six years ago. At that time I shifted 180 degrees and began putting 2% in my coffee, which I think was a vitamin d3 thing more than anything else.

I wanted *not* to use milk, though, so a couple of weeks ago tried almond milk, a quart of organic Pacific unsweetened that Frank gave me to try. I liked it. That brand is thin and watery. I bought some Silk almond milk, which is not organic, is thickened to heavy cream consistency with carageenin, and is opaque. Both taste much the same. I only bought the Silk as that was all there was where I shop.

Alas, it turns out that it has a rather unfortunate effect on me, and in researching it turns out that it's a common side effect: abdominal distress/diarrhea. That's really too bad. I suppose now it's on to goat's milk. (I used to have a French Alpine milk goat named Magdalena, so I suppose it won't be hard to adjust although it may be harder to come by than cow's milk.)

Some time ago Enjah gave me a lovely embossed copper heart in SL and it stayed where I'd placed it on my pavilion for years. When I changed trees I shifted the pavilion and looked everywhere for the heart but couldn't find it.

Today I saw something odd and when I zoomed in on it I saw it was the copper heart, which is NO MOD but it was wavering between being 100% transparent and having a completely unrelated texture. WTF?

Euronews:

The father of Norway’s self-confessed mass killer has declared his son should have turned the gun on himself.

In an interview at his home in the south of France, Anders Breivik’s father, who asked to remain anonymous, condemned the twin attacks carried out by his son.

Q: “You say that you have not been much in contact. Have you considered supporting him now, going to Norway, or doing anything for your son?”

Father: “No. I will never have more contact with him. In my darkest moments, I think that rather than killing all those people, he should have taken his own life.”

Q: “Those are strong words from a father.”

Father: “They are, but thinking about what has happened, I get so upset, and I still don’t understand that something like this could happen. No normal human being would do something like that.”

The elderly man, a retired diplomat, first leaned of his son’s attacks from media websites. Like so many of his countrymen, back home in Norway, he appeared to be totally bewildered by his son’s actions.

It seems I'm not the only one being attacked by arachnids as Gabe's sketch shows.

Tiff's grandson Ryan, age five, drew up a schematic to assist him in his investigations, and tho' it wasn't as clear as this, still, it was rather good.
Facts: Saturday last week a spider was observed dashing headlong across my desk as though it had spare necks in its pocketses. It turned up a day later on the wall in the hall. The next day it was a foot from my pillow as I lay in bed.
His conclusion: Baba (Tiff) loosed the spider upon me from a love of mischief. She drove up, hid, and threw the spider at me.

'Two teams of astronomers have discovered the largest and farthest reservoir of water ever detected in the universe. The water, equivalent to 140 trillion times all the water in the world's ocean, surrounds a huge, feeding black hole, called a quasar, more than 12 billion light-years away.'


 
'One last point for integrated identity people: you are the minority. Separate Identity is not the weird old past of the net, it is the present. The most switched on online people are Separate Identity. Look at the gamer communities and the persistent use of handles. Look at the Mommy Bloggers. Look at old email lists and usenet groups. The only subcultures that I can think of that are committed to real identities online are

  • the late adopters (“your grandma”), the people who hate computers and wouldn’t be here if they weren’t forced.
  • people who use LinkedIn (and that’s not really a subculture, just a reflection of the work world)
  • the silicon valley web 2.0 people.

I know you guys want to change the world. I do too. But you need to absorb a truth, and that is that the Separate Identity culture is here for a *reason*. Its benefits far outweigh its drawbacks. On the internet, no one knows you are a dog, and that’s a really good thing.
You want to help people rebel against tyrants? Talk openly about their thoughts and beliefs and fears? Connect with new people, learn new things? Imagine and discuss and create a new and better world?
Then embrace the Separate Identity. It’s the right thing to do, it’s the good thing to do. And who knows? You guys might need it too one day.'

If your society is set up so that health care needs are the basis of for-profit corporate business plans it will end badly.

The constant refrain these days, when Facebook and Google+ are brought up is, "if you aren't paying then you aren't the customer you are the product." The businesses are actually farming - offering tantalising free social tools and games to fertilise their realms to attract millions who arrive with valuable data about their shopping habits and personal details ready to be scraped.

In similar fashion, drug corporations along with other 'health care' businesses are farming the physical state of citizens of that aforementioned society. A quick cure is not a profitable cure, and a rare malady is unlikely to receive any attention. Best case scenario for the businesses is, like that for parasites in general, a host rendered chronically ill but neither cured nor killed.

'I suppose we all feel, when we hear stories of ancient times, that the houses were more or less the same as people's houses nowadays, and think of the people as like people we see about us. And am I alone in having sometimes within me a feeling that words I have just heard, or things I have just seen, have happened once before? When, I cannot recollect, but none the less they certainly have happened.' --Kenko

'It does not turn to summer after spring has closed, nor does the fall come when the summer ends. The spring ahead of time puts on a summer air, already in the summer the fall is abroad, and soon the fall grows cold. In the tenth month comes a brief space of spring weather. Grass grows green, plum blossoms bud. So with the falling of leaves from the trees. It is not that the trees bud, once the leaves have fallen, but that because they are budding from beneath, the leaves, unable to withstand the strain, therefore must fall. An onward-urging influence is at work within, so that stage presses on stage with exceeding haste.' --Kenko

On G+ Gwyneth LLewelyn said:

'Interesting how the obsession about "real names" seems to be mostly a Western cultural thingy. I wonder how it all started. In my country, people just started to have last names in 1911, when the newly-created republic insisted that everybody should be registered with at least a first name and a last name. In some regions, known for their sense of humour, people invented completely absurd names (some used to be nicknames, others were clearly invented on the spot): to this day, there are some laughable last names in circulation (most would be lost in translation :) ).

By contrast, I recently realised that some Eastern cultures have a completely different approach to "names". Inspired by philosophies that question the existence of an inherent self, they encourage followers to switch names often, so to release their attachment to a given name, and through that, to see how a name is just a concept — like the notion of an "inherent self". Buddhist practitioners commonly get new names by their teachers (some can be hilarious when translated, as well — others are just auspicious) and at several stages of their progression in their practice. An interesting side effect is that it's sometimes hard to unravel historical accounts on a particular teacher, since he might have written several books under different names :)

To this day, I have absolutely no clue about what name some of my teachers have in their passports. And in some cases I actually found their so-called "real names" — they just felt so "wrong", because, well, I got attached to their current names...

The point here is just that this issue about obsession with "real names" seems to be culturally conditioned. But even in the West, in Christian communities, people would get a different name when baptized in adult life — and parishes kept track of both. And although it's not common practice in my country, I understand that some countries keep track of maiden names as well and might have them listed on ID cards and similar documents.

Not to mention, of course, that under common law systems one is pretty much allowed to do business under whatever name they please, so long as the business is legitimate...'

My Auntie Anne, last of that generation in my family, died on Wednesday. I always remember Auntie Anne saying that as a girl she'd been visiting a friend when the friend's grandfather looked her up and down and said admiringly, 'Fine, strong limbs!' She said how mortified she was, but the story stuck in my head as an endearing snippet from what was at the end such a long, full, rich life.

Auntie Anne was Scottish, and had married my father's brother Sydney. My cousins, the twins Ann and Christine, and their younger sister Janet, were a fair bit older than I and always seemed alluringly intelligent and devastatingly fun, although of course I didn't see them much.

I made a new fence to match Art's original fence (from 2003) but use 1/8 the prims.
I bought some new trees just gearing up to expect the nearby land to sell. The new trees are a row of eight, at two prims per row. After rearranging a bit I have 129 free prims, which is far more than I usually have - if I had seven before I was lucky. I use part of the land (which is comprised of Art's lifetime parcel, Osprey's Land For the Landless 512m2, and an irregular few hunks that Ozymandias owns as buffer land) as a sandbox, so it's important to have some free prims.

Yoz Linden commented on SVC-7031:
---------------------------------

Here's a little more in-depth information on what we've done to improve the Group Chat situation:

Both Group and Conference Chat use a grid-wide delivery system which has been in place for the past four years [That's when group chat broke for TSMGO]. It's a highly concurrent distributed system which uses many modern techniques (such as asynchronous I/O) to achieve high performance. Unfortunately, it had a number of bugs in it which only appear under high load, and would cause high lag and out-of-order delivery.

We've made brief attempts to fix this in the past, but debugging intermittent problems in a concurrent distributed system is not easy, as any software engineer will tell you. We had to dedicate a team to this diagnosis, which required them to greatly improve our facilities to simulate high load and monitor the systems under stress. (I wasn't a member of that team. I just stood on the sidelines and marvelled.)

As you should now be able to see, the strategy paid off. Several specific pain points were identified, fixes were made and tested, and the changes were rolled to the production grid. All our monitoring indicates that the capacity of the system has, at minimum, doubled. The vast majority of messages are being delivered in well under a second. The system as a whole is now much more scalable.

All that said, there are some important caveats to note:
* These fixes only affect Group and Conference Chat. Nearby Chat (also known as Local Chat) is an entirely different system, but we're also looking at potential fixes there.
* Despite huge improvements to Group Chat, we're not calling it "fixed" yet. Some people still see message delivery lag under some circumstances, and there are still plenty of potential improvements to make. However, in addition to the unclogging of the system, the team also added a great deal of extra monitoring and instrumentation. This should allow future fixes to be identified and implemented much more quickly.

Burn 2.0

I can't quite make head nor tail of the info - anyone know how much plots are?
Who is doing it? I'm thinking about Burning Duck, of course.

I'm here at the sim, but the info tent doesn't help me.

Update: MM sez: Last year Burn parcels were sold on the Marketplace. This year they will only be available in world. A 512 lot is 7,000L$. 1024 lot is 13,500L$. 2048 lot is 26,500L$. This is roughly $50US for a 1024. I think it cost me around $30 last year. They have a preliminary map up showing seven sims. Apparently there will be twenty 512 lottery parcels. 100L$ to enter the lottery. There is no prim bonus for the parcels. I haven't heard when access to parcels becomes available. I have not bought one yet but may eventually. Still in shock at the price increase.
