Bertram Jacobus: oh. sry :o)
Bertram Jacobus: lol. see now
Bertram Jacobus: hy qt
Moon Fargis: morning qt
Bertram Jacobus: hey cal
Moon Fargis: and morning calvino
Qt Core: Hi all
Bertram Jacobus: old men circle ? ;-9
Moon Fargis: ˙·•| mmh *nods* |•·˙
Archmage Atlantis: Too much, Mon, thnk of me a almost blind grandpa
Bertram Jacobus: with a quite young sl avatar ... :-)
Qt Core: old men unable to sleep on sunday mornings ? and even on 15/8, the peak of summer laziness!
Moon Fargis: well to be almost blind you can read the small text in SL quiet well :)
Archmage Atlantis: Max nix
Bertram Jacobus: *giggle*
Moon Fargis: ahyes i hear, as older one gets as less he sleeps
Calvino Rabeni: Hello everyone :)
Archmage Atlantis: Well sure, 200% helps, now will will go back to being in my 20s
Moon Fargis: last life ?
Moon Fargis: if you arrive there youre really young :)
Bertram Jacobus: yes ! : here one can be young again, or already old - whatever one wants to be ...
Moon Fargis: well the avatar is just another door to the mind
Bertram Jacobus: but i wonder, when the first direct connections between our biological synapses and such and the virtual world may be possible ...
Moon Fargis: hmm
Moon Fargis: 30 years atlest
Bertram Jacobus: may be. but with sl i failed too : thought it had been longer to develop. but those techniques develop fast !
Moon Fargis: yep
--BELL--
Qt Core: i'd like that, even if not 100%, let say connecting the mind area responsible of language to hear and to speak to an external... AI
Qt Core: ops
Bertram Jacobus: yes qt - i also look forward to such possibilities
Moon Fargis: hmm someone knows ghost in the shell ?
Moon Fargis: the movies / series
Bertram Jacobus: yes !
Bertram Jacobus: the movie
Qt Core: only the title
Bertram Jacobus: i have it even - still on video ... ;-9
Moon Fargis: well its worth watching
Moon Fargis: hehe yes same here on VHS
Bertram Jacobus: yess :-)
Moon Fargis: althought i downloaded the second part :)
Archmage Atlantis: eeps,actually,,,,the AI.......sounds like God, Yweh,,,,,that dude
Moon Fargis: its science fiction, where human brains could be transplanted in a android body
Bertram Jacobus: second part ? i have it as one movie from about one and a half hour (?) i guess ...
Moon Fargis: ahyes theres a second movie
Bertram Jacobus: ah okay
Moon Fargis: innocence i think its called
Moon Fargis: but not as good as the first one
Bertram Jacobus: very intense athmosphere, great drawings
Moon Fargis: ahyes the atmosphere is contains much pressure
Bertram Jacobus: enourmous asthetic ...
Moon Fargis: but anyhow in maybe 100-200 years that could be our future
Qt Core: i've ended suggesting this sf book many times here and again it fit here: http://www.amazon.com/Accelerando-Si...1860392&sr=8-1
Bertram Jacobus: sure. yes. why not ? i even guess so or am more then that : quite sure : virtual worlds and living in them will be the future
Moon Fargis: welcome to the matrix :)
Moon Fargis: but we shall wonder how many stuff, once written by science fiction people may come true
Qt Core: i'd like more a "simple" augmented reality, so not to forgot our bodies (the fatass that could nor run more than 50 meters speaking here)
Moon Fargis: wb :)
Moon Fargis: well might one thing gladly dont come true
Moon Fargis: http://www.myvideo.de/watch/790250/R...ardcoredancing
Bertram Jacobus: ty. the amazon link let me crash (!) (?) ... :o)
Moon Fargis: this hardcoredancing they imagined :)
Qt Core: i also fear that if we'll go all virtual we will finally and completely forget about the environment
Moon Fargis: the matrix got you then bert :D
Qt Core: sorry
Bertram Jacobus: hey ! np at all ! ty ! :-)
Archmage Atlantis: yoo hooo,,,,I've bee reacing sfi for multilple decades.......
Bertram Jacobus: but it could also be ... a help for the environement, because we wouldn´t have to do then so much anymore in it, so less pollution and such
Moon Fargis: well so far we shall be lucky to live in the time where all began
Qt Core: yes, but as we could have any virtual nature we want why to "waste" energy preserving the real one, this is what i fear
Bertram Jacobus: but would you give me the name of the author again plz qt ? would like to see whether his book may be also exists translated into german ...
Archmage Atlantis: It most always comes true, just not the way we inagine it
Qt Core: Charles Stross
Qt Core: i just finished a sf book about an AI written in 1989... beyond the plot the tech seems so archaic ;-)
Bertram Jacobus: ty. and may be ... as long as the conventional basis is important and essential to us ... should be preserves i guess and i´d think, that would happen too - at least in at least same way as today (hope more for sure)
Qt Core: moving an AI with floppy disks!
Moon Fargis: lol
Moon Fargis: well this must be then atleast a HD floppy disk :)
Moon Fargis: mut maybe it was a jazz drive qt
--BELL--
Moon Fargis: binnnggg
Bertram Jacobus: that reminds me on coffee ... i´ll take one ... ;-)
Qt Core: wow, i think i've found it in Amazon... in german!
Qt Core: http://www.amazon.com/Fall-ASIA-Chil...1860983&sr=1-2
Moon Fargis: ah cool :)
Archmage Atlantis: I read my first SciFi novel in 1965
Archmage Atlantis: Heilein
Moon Fargis: sounds german
Moon Fargis: well its a german last name
Archmage Atlantis: Heinlien, then Asimov
Qt Core: i think i started in the late '70 (hey i had to learn to read before) with Asimov
Calvino Rabeni: What was the first SF novel you read, Arch mage?
Moon Fargis: and then the listen books where invented :)
Archmage Atlantis: I always have to look it up
Bertram Jacobus: i like asimov also as one of the chairmen or such of mensa - the world organisation of highly intelligent people ! ... :-)
Archmage Atlantis: Oh, I remember
Archmage Atlantis: The Starbeast
Calvino Rabeni: Ah, right
Moon Fargis: a world organisation of highly intelligent people aha
Archmage Atlantis: I wa 15
Moon Fargis: poor world :)
Calvino Rabeni: I think it was for me - "Have Space Suit, Will Travel"
Qt Core: i tried to find Mensa on la local games convention... i wasn't intelligent enough to fint their booth
Calvino Rabeni: :)
Moon Fargis: well every university got a mensa :)
Qt Core: the next year they placed their space right in front of the main door :-)
Calvino Rabeni: Calvino Rabeni remembers Woddly Allen's story - "The Whore of Mensa"
Calvino Rabeni: *Woody Allen that i
Archmage Atlantis: Sometimes, I pass their tests, sometimes I fail.........Mensa is only a piece of thought
Bertram Jacobus: wody allen´s story ? what is THAT plz ? :-)
Calvino Rabeni: It is about a special service in new york. You call them and they send over a young woman with really big ... lobes
Moon Fargis: hmmm
Moon Fargis: how much does it cost oversea ?:)
Bertram Jacobus: hehe sounds cool lol :o)
Calvino Rabeni: Who will sit with you and discuss Kierkegard, or phenomenology, or whatever you like
Qt Core: sometimes local grown products are better ;-)
Calvino Rabeni: But very expensive :)
Qt Core: luckily no women here or i would get a serious beating for that
Archmage Atlantis: Boobs, they are called boovbs
Moon Fargis: lol
Moon Fargis: hmm
Moon Fargis: beside of all that
Archmage Atlantis: Ranting,
Moon Fargis: i wondered it its possible to change the background music stream
Archmage Atlantis: Apologize
Moon Fargis: for a short weile, maybe for a session
Moon Fargis: so a guardian could play is music during it
Qt Core: probably, doesn't guardians have some powers on this sim ?
Moon Fargis: hmmm welyl
Moon Fargis: to be able to build yes
Moon Fargis: but thisl and is not deeded to the group
--BELL--
Agatha Macbeth: Wow a garden :)
Archmage Atlantis: hEY aGGIE, WELCOME TO MALE BONDING

Agatha Macbeth: Auf wiedersehen
Agatha Macbeth: Well, this is cool
Bertram Jacobus: yes , moons wearable gardens and such ... are really graet ,
Bertram Jacobus: top idea
Agatha Macbeth: There is a shoe in the fountain, or is it me?
Qt Core: after all the "moon's gardens" i'm really aware of the geometrical precision of the cushions and fountain
Bertram Jacobus: hehe . no lets see darrens or mine ...
Darren Islar: not mine
Darren Islar: :)
Bertram Jacobus: sry - seems to be that my ava does such things since a few weeks ... :-(
Agatha Macbeth: It's amazing how diffenent it makes the place look
Darren Islar: like Yakuzza's boxes
Bertram Jacobus: yess
Qt Core: mine seems to be unable to wear the simplest shoes anymore,
Agatha Macbeth: And dis-orientating too
Agatha Macbeth: You could always try barefoot Qt :)
Qt Core: have to find some decent more complex ones in my inventory.... boooring
Darren Islar: maybe you need to resize your feet ?
Qt Core: i am since some weeks
Bertram Jacobus: i had such probs at my pab village plot : the ava does not wear some things - and when i tp to another place ... it then weares them "suddenly" ... bah :o)
Agatha Macbeth: You need a pair that go with pink trousers
Agatha Macbeth: I get the same problem Bert
Qt Core: grey maybe, darker tones
Agatha Macbeth: It can be annoying
Bertram Jacobus: so may be, at other places you can try to put on those qt perhaps ...
Darren Islar: I know v2 was doing strange things with clothing sometimes in the past
Agatha Macbeth: I never use it, so don't know
Agatha Macbeth: Would not surprise me tho
Bertram Jacobus: but i experience that with emerald darren. my impression is, it´s something on this sim ... especially when agatha and qt report similar ...
Darren Islar: could be
Qt Core: never had problems with v2, but i started trying to wear shoes again only after updating to 2.1
Agatha Macbeth: Emerald can have its little moments yes
Agatha Macbeth: But still prefer it
Qt Core: i had problem even (mostly) elsewhere with shoes
Darren Islar: maybe you should ask Strom about it
Agatha Macbeth: I never had any shoe problems I must admit
Bertram Jacobus: hehe qt - so ... may be you could meditate about that ? what it may mean and such ? ... ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: The Tao of the Shoe?
Darren Islar: hehe Agatha :)
Bertram Jacobus: yess ! :-)
--BELL--
Darren Islar: it looks cute Bert, those ear-things :)
Agatha Macbeth: They are attatched to his Ipod
Agatha Macbeth pulls up Bert's ear-muffs and blows in his ear
Qt Core: the funny thing is that shoes is the only "clothing" thing i'm picky about in rl as it take me months to buy a pair
Darren Islar: :)
Qt Core: then i'll wear them until destroyed
Agatha Macbeth: That's cos you're picky QT :))
Qt Core: oh yes iam ;-)
Agatha Macbeth: You should stick to Enerprise uniforms
Agatha Macbeth: +t
Qt Core: or cubes
Agatha Macbeth: Yes
Agatha Macbeth: Them too
Bertram Jacobus lols and must admit : again i was shortly afk *blushh*
