The Guardian for this meeting was Fael Illyar. The comments are by Fael Illyar.

Fael Illyar: Hi Yakuzza, Susi :)
Fael Illyar wonders about yakuzza walking about aimlessly out there...
Susi Alcott: Hi Fael
Susi Alcott: Hi Yakuzza
Fael Illyar: He's not close enough to hear...
Susi Alcott: like he's got lag...
Fael Illyar: Hello Karoz :)
Susi Alcott: Hi Karoz
Karoz Blogger: Hi. I came here to apologize to Stevanaia about a log entry. Is it OK to do that now while the session is being recorded?
Karoz Blogger: Stevenaia.
Fael Illyar: Sure, although, Stevanaia is not here.
Karoz Blogger: Yes. I just wanted to say that the logs of 5/24 and 5/29 involving my conversations are correct.
Karoz Blogger: I did not remember visiting on the 24th, but for a reason. I had teleported in randomly to an SL location to demonstate something to my rl wife.
Karoz Blogger: It just happened to be this location.
Karoz Blogger: Then when I refound the place 5 days later I did not recognize it.
Fael Illyar: Ah...
Karoz Blogger: The second time I was just exploring around my house to the south. It was found just wandering around. The context was totally different.
Fael Illyar: but there were 4 meetings on both 24th and 29th... what time was that?
Karoz Blogger: But maybe it's a sign I should come back , at least at times.
Karoz Blogger: http://playasbeing.wik.is/Chat_Logs/...d_Joy_of_Humor
Karoz Blogger: I don't have the link for the 24th, but I was only here a minute.
Fael Illyar: but I'm curious, how did you end up finding this place after being here by an accident?
Karoz Blogger: I live in the area, and like to explore. I just ran through the telehub area from my home in Noru.
Karoz Blogger: The first time I was just teleporting to a specific location in SL to demonstrate something to my rl wife. Do you want to know what?
Fael Illyar: Ah, I have a shop in Nari close to here :)
Fael Illyar: Sure :)
Karoz Blogger: Ah, yes.
Karoz Blogger: Are you connected to Chilbo?
Susi Alcott: I'm not
Fael Illyar: propably not as I don't remember even hearing the name before.
Karoz Blogger: You should go. It's not at all far from your shop.
Karoz Blogger: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sourc...9rnQCWgcut_wNw
Karoz Blogger: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sourc...=res&cd=1sorry
Karoz Blogger: chilbo.org
Susi Alcott: what special is there that I should go ?
Karoz Blogger: Just to record, I was trying to demonstrate to my rl wife that I could teleport anywhere and find avatars like my own that are non-human and...
Karoz Blogger: non-pretty, shall we say.
Karoz Blogger: But everyone here was quite beautiful so I lost my arguement. :)
Fael Illyar smiles.
Susi Alcott: rehi Yakuzza
Yakuzza Lethecus: hi
Susi Alcott: now you are in the pavillon
Fael Illyar: Hi again Yakuzza :)
Karoz Blogger: I'll let you go. Chilbo is a unique place in SL.
Yakuzza Lethecus: great tricky thing
Fael Illyar: ah, I'm the guardian for this meeting so I'll stay here for some time still.
Karoz Blogger: Just study.
Karoz Blogger: Thank you. I have to run and work on some blog entries. I'll come back. Apologies again to stevenaia.
Fael Illyar: Ok, thank you for popping in :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: i hope i don´t sit on anyone
Fael Illyar: Yakuzza, no, you're sitting next to a pillar facing outside :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: You see the objects zabuton_seiza, zabuton_relax, zabuton_relax, zabuton_seiza, zabuton_relax, Classic, and zabuton_seiza.
Yakuzza Lethecus: that is what i see :)
Fael Illyar: if you ca figure out how to sit on one of those objects, it might help :)
Fael Illyar: Ah, great :)
Fael Illyar: now you're seated :)
Susi Alcott: now Ur sitting on the pilloe
Yakuzza Lethecus: To sit on an object, type "sit on object name
Fael Illyar smiles.
Fael Illyar: I remember playing a few games with that sort of interface years ago :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: The interaction of TextSL has been inspired by text based adventure games like Zork because virtual worlds have their origins in such games and the way input and output is provided is suitable to be read with a screen reader.
Fael Illyar: Yes :)
Fael Illyar: very close to interactive book :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: Was there any topic here ?
Fael Illyar: Well, now that Karoz poofed, not anymore, really.
Yakuzza Lethecus: here in germany we have another holiday
Yakuzza Lethecus: but it´s the last for a long time now
Yakuzza Lethecus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corpus_Christi_(feast)
Fael Illyar: Ah
Yakuzza Lethecus: but it´s only in the catholic parts
Fael Illyar: Yes, looks to be a feast I hadn't even heard about.
Yakuzza Lethecus: we or at least i don´t celebrate, it´s just a day off and i took ab bridgeday tomorrow
Yakuzza Lethecus: do you have any religion or at least on paper ?
Fael Illyar: on paper? yes, Lutheran for now... still haven't felt like handing in my resignation papers.
Yakuzza Lethecus: Is there a Tax for the church ?
Fael Illyar: The only name I have for what is keeping me back is laziness.
Fael Illyar: Yes, there is.
Fael Illyar: That's the reason I've been playing with dropping my membership in the church
Yakuzza Lethecus: I don´t live in a roman catholic way, but i think that many of the things the church profides at least in my area are quite well and i stay in there.
Susi Alcott: so is it free day to all of the people in Germany today ?
Yakuzza Lethecus: in the catholic regions, yes
Susi Alcott: _/!\_
Yakuzza Lethecus: Thats why i don´t get the package for sending in my pc back today :(
Yakuzza Lethecus: so i have to stick to this 8 years old
Fael Illyar: Oh
Fael Illyar: That explains the TextSL then.
Fael Illyar: hmmh... he vanished.
Fael Illyar: wb Yakuzza :)
Fael Illyar: What happened?
Fael Illyar: Hi Bert :)
Bertrum Quan: Hi Fael, Susi, Yakuzza
Fael Illyar: How are you Bert?
Bertrum Quan: Working late.

Fael Illyar: Oh, still at work?
Bertrum Quan: Taking a break from a project I'm working on...
Fael Illyar: Ah, breaks are good :)
Susi Alcott: _/!\_
Bertrum Quan: and necessary...
Fael Illyar: Yes :)
Bertrum Quan: How about you two? Just finishing breakfast?
Susi Alcott: smiles; yes
Fael Illyar: Just half finished mine, somehow didn't feel like eating it all. I did somehow make a lot of it though.
Fael Illyar: wb Yakuzza :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: thx
Susi Alcott: wb Yakuzza
Fael Illyar: is it crashing a lot?
Yakuzza Lethecus: yeah, i restarted my pc now
Fael Illyar: ah, hope it's not overheating.
Fael Illyar: old pcs might have worn out cooling
Yakuzza Lethecus: hehe, no 3d even the systemload is below 10% with firefox and everything
Yakuzza Lethecus: it´s just and p3 1ghz
Yakuzza Lethecus: 7 years old
Yakuzza Lethecus: or 8
Fael Illyar: Oh, that's not so slow :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: yeah, i remember 286 :)
Fael Illyar: but does sound like it makes a lot of heat.
Yakuzza Lethecus: no not at all
Fael Illyar: even at 10% :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: this pc even only needs 60W
Yakuzza Lethecus: my new one 130 without load
Fael Illyar: 60W is a lot with worn out cooling.
Yakuzza Lethecus: True
Fael Illyar: but, enough of cooling I guess :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: The side is open, there is an 80mm fan because the old coolers died ages ago
Fael Illyar smiles.
Yakuzza Lethecus: it was more an experimental pc the last years, but i was lucky that i didn´t throw him away
Fael Illyar smiles 'Yes.'
Susi Alcott: :)
Fael Illyar: I've always kept at least 2 PCs.
Fael Illyar: (well, starting from when I could decide it by myself) :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: i am amazed how fast this thing is even today, obviously no 3d things
Yakuzza Lethecus: and i can´t use my 2nd monitor which was really great together with 2nd life
Yakuzza Lethecus: especially when i am in philosophy events i have to be in the wikipedia and in pdf´s all the time
Fael Illyar: yes, old computers are quite a bit better than most people seem to think :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: or even here when it´s about meditation or buddism because i have to look so many things up in order to understand
Fael Illyar: you can always ask too :)
Fael Illyar: Hello flemmingv :)
Yakuzza Lethecus: most people are interested but i like to understand how i can elaborate on the things i hear about
Yakuzza Lethecus: hi flemming
Fael Illyar: Have you been here before flemmingvp?
Susi Alcott: Hi felmming
flemmingvp Avro: I thnk once, I had this landmark in my inventory
Fael Illyar: Ah, we have few meetings every day here.
Fael Illyar: the meetings are also recorded, do you mind your words being recorder and posted on our wiki?
flemmingvp Avro: I had put this landmark under "discussion places" because I hope to find that kind of places
flemmingvp Avro: fine ofr me
Fael Illyar: but please have a seat :)
Susi Alcott: _/!\_
Susi Alcott: would you flem have some certain topic in your mind ?
flemmingvp Avro: not really. i am working hard in rl right now, but needed a brake
Susi Alcott: _/!\_
Fael Illyar: Ah, two hard workers here then :)
flemmingvp Avro: But I am very interested in finding out all the different ways SL can be used
flemmingvp Avro: and this place seems different
Susi Alcott: this can be used also for breake and 'speak' with silence
Fael Illyar: a meeting place... theoretically open to everyone :)
flemmingvp Avro: what does the text in the information mean : "Can we form ideas about what Being could be"?
Fael Illyar: Being is Pema's tentative name for what he has defined as 'What is left when you drop everything you have.'
Fael Illyar: the 9 second pause every 15 minutes he had an idea for was a method he thought up to explore that.
flemmingvp Avro: so it is a kind of philosophy?
Susi Alcott: yes
Fael Illyar: more of a personal exploration but you'll find everyone having some kind of philosophy to go with it too.
flemmingvp Avro: interesting
Fael Illyar: that is, everyone who is doing it :)
Fael Illyar: not everyone participating here does.
Susi Alcott: there's somebody that has dropped all one has ?
Fael Illyar: I suspect not.
flemmingvp Avro: how can you drop everything you have?
flemmingvp Avro: all preoccupied oppinions?
Susi Alcott: my poor brain sais it's impossible
Fael Illyar: good question :) That's part of the exploration.
Fael Illyar: to find out.
Susi Alcott: there sure is this phase that some people call 'deep dream'
Susi Alcott: that is the phase that one dont experience to have even thoughts
Susi Alcott: but I wouldn't want ever to guide anybody to that phase
flemmingvp Avro: so it is something about being in your subconcience (or what it is called)
Susi Alcott: nope
Fael Illyar: kind of
Susi Alcott: it truly is 'deep dream'
Fael Illyar: but not quite :)
Susi Alcott: not having anything; genuinly experiencing one's existence to have nothing
flemmingvp Avro: like a new born baby, and open for everything?
Susi Alcott: nope
Susi Alcott: closed to everything
Susi Alcott: nothing existing but pain
flemmingvp Avro: sounds bad
Fael Illyar: that's not dropping everything...
Susi Alcott: no, but that is the phase after dropping all
Fael Illyar: no, pain is still left there.
Yakuzza Lethecus: ok i got to go, take care everyone
Yakuzza Lethecus: bye
Susi Alcott: the pain comes for that
Fael Illyar: see you later Yakuzza :)
Susi Alcott: see you again Yakuzza
Susi Alcott: that's why I dont recommend that to anybody
Susi Alcott: specially cuz that's the phase from nobody outsider can help up
flemmingvp Avro: I eally have to go back to work, But I will come back another day. Sounds interesting here :-)
Fael Illyar: See you later then, flemmingvp :)
Fael Illyar: Thank you for coming :)
Susi Alcott: have good time flemming
Fael Illyar: See you later Bert :)
flemmingvp Avro: thanks for the chat :-)
Bertrum Quan: Need to go too. Have a good day everyone!
Susi Alcott: wishing good time to Bert too
flemmingvp Avro: bye
