[12:59] Yakuzza Lethecus: hey maude, good afternoon
[12:59] DR42 Resident: ηαмαѕтє
[13:01] DR42 Resident: I think the schedule board could use a new picture of you.
[13:02] Yakuzza Lethecus: i might change the avi again at some point, but the tux and the facelight really were a bit too much

[13:02] Yakuzza Lethecus: hey rosatta
[13:02] DR42 Resident: Hello Rosatta
[13:02] Rosatta Resident: Hi, Yaku : )
[13:02] Rosatta Resident: Hi, Maude : )
[13:02] Rosatta Resident: Ah, now things are rezzing

[13:03] DR42 Resident: My perception is that SSB rollout has made things slower.
[13:04] Rosatta Resident: SSB - the SL update?
[13:04] DR42 Resident: Yes
[13:04] Yakuzza Lethecus: what does SSB stand for ?
[13:05] Yakuzza Lethecus: ah, got it
[13:05] Yakuzza Lethecus: Server Side Baking
[13:05] DR42 Resident: Server Side Baking, or for the amature radio fans, Single Side Broadband.

[13:05] Rosatta Resident: It doesn't seem tob e doing its job for me. I did a clean install but Maude only rezzes from the neck up for me
[13:06] DR42 Resident: Lol, that is because I am wearing my SSB protest outfit. :)
[13:06] Rosatta Resident laughs
[13:07] Yakuzza Lethecus: ah there the t-shirt is rezzing
[13:07] Yakuzza Lethecus: any particular galaxy ?
[13:07] DR42 Resident: M80
[13:09] Yakuzza Lethecus: scorpius
[13:10] DR42 Resident: Now NCG1365
[13:10] Yakuzza Lethecus: and this ?
[13:10] Yakuzza Lethecus: ah :)
[13:11] Yakuzza Lethecus: at least this is another galaxy :)

[13:12] Yakuzza Lethecus: i wonder if we will still see interplanetary human travel at the end of our livecicles
[13:12] DR42 Resident: I doubt it.
[13:13] Rosatta Resident: The days of envisioning colonies on the moon and Ganymede seem to be gone : (
[13:14] Yakuzza Lethecus: good evening wol
[13:14] Wol Euler: evening all!
[13:14] Rosatta Resident: But they haven't made the biosphere on earth really work yet, so even if the people and supplies could be transported there is work to do
[13:14] DR42 Resident: The energy requirements to lift enough material into even low earth orbit are unfathomably large.

[13:14] Wol Euler: happy friday
[13:14] Rosatta Resident: Hi, Wol : )
[13:14] DR42 Resident: Hello Wol
[13:16] DR42 Resident: Wol, Adoro a/k/a Barca was here today. He mentioned you.
[13:16] Wol Euler: hmmm
[13:17] Wol Euler: I remember him, he hasn't been around in months, perhaps over a year
[13:17] Wol Euler: glad to hear he is still here
[13:17] DR42 Resident: That was what he said. He had a new AV.
[13:17] Wol Euler: ah :) I see, thanks
[13:17] DR42 Resident: BonitoBonsi? Something of that sort.
[13:18] Wol Euler: no doubt we'll meet, now that he's returned :)

[13:18] Rosatta Resident: Is that a comment on your local weather, Wol?
[13:18] Wol Euler: yep
[13:19] Wol Euler: awful (for my tastes and skin) weather here
[13:19] Wol Euler: mid thirties and high humidity
[13:19] Rosatta Resident: Ah, well. Germany needs hot summers to make up for those cold winters
[13:19] Rosatta Resident: (just teasing)
[13:19] Wol Euler: ha, not cold at all. -3°C is considered extreme here
[13:19] Wol Euler smiles.
[13:19] Wol Euler: I come from the Prairies, we know what cold is about.
[13:20] Rosatta Resident: Yes

[13:20] Rosatta Resident: I spent one winter in the Netherlands - hard wind and low temps ~ shudder ~
[13:20] Wol Euler: the older I get, the less well I seem able to handle the summer heat
[13:21] Rosatta Resident: Me, too. Our area is more like Englands - cool and rainy most of the year and I don't think I could handle anything else now
[13:21] Yakuzza Lethecus: oh, that´s how it it when the avi turns 6 ? :P
[13:21] DR42 Resident: Predictions for Hungary are near 40 on Sunday
[13:22] Wol Euler: same here, maude. It'll be awful if it happens
[13:22] DR42 Resident pays attention to weather for Formula 1 races.
[13:22] Wol Euler: and yes, yaku :)
[13:22] Rosatta Resident: What is that in F?
[13:22] DR42 Resident: C
[13:23] Rosatta Resident: I meant, what does it translate into in F
[13:23] Wol Euler: 104°F

[13:23] Rosatta Resident: Whew!
[13:23] Rosatta Resident: I'm hot just hearing about it
[13:23] Wol Euler: yeah
[13:23] Wol Euler: I think I'
[13:24] Wol Euler: I'll buy a dehumidifier tomorrow morning, that may help a little
[13:24] Rosatta Resident: We have areas in the southwestern US that hit 50C and above. I don't know how people live there
[13:24] Wol Euler: or why! heheheh
[13:24] Rosatta Resident: Yes :-D
[13:25] Rosatta Resident: Retired people with money are what are called 'snow birds.' They own a home in that area and one further north and move south for the winter and north for the summer

[13:26] DR42 Resident: Hi Bruce
[13:26] Rosatta Resident: That is pure luxury
[13:26] Yakuzza Lethecus: hey bruce
[13:26] Bruce Mowbray: Heya, everyone!
[13:26] Rosatta Resident: Hi, Bruce! Good to see you : )
[13:26] Wol Euler: hello bruce
[13:26] Bruce Mowbray: Good to see you too, Rosatta -- and Yaku, and Wol... and Maude!
[13:26] Yakuzza Lethecus: bruce: what´s the temperature in ur area ?
[13:26] Bruce Mowbray: (whom did I miss?)
[13:26] Wol Euler: weather-moaning :)=
[13:27] Bruce Mowbray: Right now the weather.com thingie says 81 degrees (fahrenheit, obviously).
[13:27] Wol Euler: 27°C, wonderful!

[13:27] DR42 Resident: I just got my first ever obscene phone call. :)
[13:27] Wol Euler: my favourite temperature
[13:27] Wol Euler cheers!
[13:28] Wol Euler raises an eyebrow.
[13:28] Bruce Mowbray: Congrats, Maude! I've never gotten one of those... but there's still time, maybe.
[13:29] Rosatta Resident: I worked answering service for awhile. We got them periodically including some very stubborn ones who would call over and over and over
[13:29] Bruce Mowbray: oh my. PESTS!
[13:29] Bruce Mowbray: No one needs that.
[13:29] Rosatta Resident: Some people just don't have a life :-/
[13:29] Bruce Mowbray: for sure, Rosatta.
[13:29] Wol Euler: mmhmm
[13:32] Bruce Mowbray: Heya, San. Heya, Zen. Heya, Bonito.

[13:32] Rosatta Resident: So, what does everyone do for the 90 seconds of silence? Meditate? Do something else? Just wait?

[13:32] Bruce Mowbray: I ran into the kitchen to grab some nuts.
[13:32] Yakuzza Lethecus: hey bonito
[13:32] Bruce Mowbray: and raisins.
[13:32] DR42 Resident: Something else today.
[13:33] Yakuzza Lethecus: i checked a website about german citizenship :P

[13:33] Rosatta Resident: A very nice Friday group : )
[13:34] Wol Euler: ah, two days old :)

[13:34] Rosatta Resident: Bonito, what is the Franciscus Monastery?
[13:34] BonitoBonsai Resident: yes
[13:34] BonitoBonsai Resident: a perish in SL
[13:34] Bruce Mowbray listens intently.
[13:34] BonitoBonsai Resident: I saw and went to it
[13:35] BonitoBonsai Resident: because in newspapers
[13:35] Bruce Mowbray: ahhhh!
[13:35] BonitoBonsai Resident: said it was the new form of communication with pope francis
[13:35] Wol Euler: oho
[13:35] Wol Euler: fascinating
[13:35] Bruce Mowbray holds his sides in....
[13:36] Rosatta Resident: Does it have a sim?
[13:36] BonitoBonsai Resident: and my avatar is new
[13:36] BonitoBonsai Resident: but I was here several yers
[13:36] BonitoBonsai Resident: as Adoro and later as Barca

[13:36] Wol Euler: ah! hello :)
[13:36] Wol Euler: welcome back
[13:36] Yakuzza Lethecus: wb :)
[13:36] BonitoBonsai Resident: ty

[13:37] BonitoBonsai Resident: I was friends with Yaku, Brice, Wol
[13:37] Wol Euler: hello san
[13:37] BonitoBonsai Resident: yeah
[13:37] Yakuzza Lethecus: hej san :)
[13:37] Zen Arado: and me
[13:37] Bruce Mowbray: secondlife:///app/group/b9d49b86-93b...b0e73958/about
[13:37] Zen Arado: Hi San
[13:37] Santoshima Resident: hi everyone

[13:38] Rosatta Resident: Is that the one Padre Pio was a member of?
[13:38] Bruce Mowbray: ADORO!!! Goot to see you again!
[13:38] BonitoBonsai Resident: yeah Bruce
[13:38] Rosatta Resident: Hi, San : )

[13:38] BonitoBonsai Resident: how is Blub ?
[13:38] Bruce Mowbray: Blub is LOST!
[13:38] BonitoBonsai Resident: oh
[13:38] Wol Euler: oh no :(

[13:38] Bruce Mowbray: San saw him a couple of weeks ago, but can't recall where that was.
[13:38] Bruce Mowbray: I'm hoping someone will return him to his own aquarium.
[13:38] Santoshima Resident: didn't record the coordinates
[13:39] Bruce Mowbray: (Sort of like having a stray dog....)
[13:39] Wol Euler: do you at least know which sim it was?
[13:39] Bruce Mowbray: Heya, San!
[13:39] Santoshima Resident: nope, sl landed me into a dark blue zone, seated
[13:39] Santoshima Resident: and there was Blub
[13:39] Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
[13:39] Santoshima Resident: i took a photo and sent to bruce
[13:39] Bruce Mowbray: ;-)))

[13:39] Wol Euler: ah, okay, so he's at 0,0,0 in some place
[13:39] Santoshima Resident: could be below here
[13:39] Wol Euler: miles underground probably
[13:39] Santoshima Resident: yes
[13:39] Bruce Mowbray: Hmmm.

[13:39] Bruce Mowbray: I hope there's plenty of water down there.
[13:39] BonitoBonsai Resident: I have to go sorry
[13:40] BonitoBonsai Resident: was nice
[13:40] BonitoBonsai Resident: for a while
[13:40] Bruce Mowbray: Bye for now, Bonito/Adoro.
[13:40] Yakuzza Lethecus: nice to see you again!
[13:40] BonitoBonsai Resident: bye till later
[13:40] Wol Euler: well, if you knew the name of his prims, you could do a region search for him
[13:40] Wol Euler: bye bonito, glad you have returned
[13:40] Bruce Mowbray ponders "name of his prims."
[13:40] Bruce Mowbray: Heya, Kori.
[13:40] DR42 Resident: Bruce, have you run with area search turned on?
[13:40] Wol Euler: "blub" is the name you assigned him, but taht is probably not the name of the prim that used to be found in your inventory
[13:41] Yakuzza Lethecus: hey kori
[13:41] Bruce Mowbray: Hmmm. I don't know.
[13:41] Wol Euler: that name is probably "Blue fish 178"
[13:41] Bruce Mowbray: I could maybe do that...
[13:41] Wol Euler: or whatever its maker called it
[13:41] Zen Arado: Hi Kori
[13:41] Santoshima Resident: hi korel :)
[13:41] Bruce Mowbray: I will find the exact name...
[13:41] Korel Laloix: Heya
[13:41] Bruce Mowbray: just a sec.....
[13:41] Wol Euler: hello korel
[13:42] Korel Laloix smiles

[13:42] Bruce Mowbray: (7S) Uncommon Fish: Papa Flame Angel Blue
[13:43] Bruce Mowbray: There's the full name.
[13:43] Zen Arado: that sounds like the fish you catch SL fishing
[13:43] Wol Euler: okay, so revisit every sim that you can remember going to lately (since he was lost) and do a Region Search for that name
[13:43] DR42 Resident: You can filter search results on the owner. "Mowbray" for example.
[13:43] Bruce Mowbray: Actually, I bought him in a pet store.
[13:43] Wol Euler: or that, aye
[13:43] Zen Arado: I seem to have a little bar at bottom of chat window hmm
[13:44] Rosatta Resident: Or you can buy one at them market place and know that he was just hanging aroudn waiting for you

[13:44] Zen Arado: put up a notice and reward
[13:44] Zen Arado: :)
[13:44] Zen Arado: MISSING
[13:44] Wol Euler smiles.
[13:44] Zen Arado: One little fish called Blub
[13:45] Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
[13:46] Zen Arado: likes to swim in circles
[13:46] Zen Arado: sadly missed by anxioua owner
[13:46] Rosatta Resident: You will never be lonely with your own school : )
[13:47] Zen Arado: wow a swarm
[13:47] Zen Arado: school
[13:47] Zen Arado: hmm

[13:47] Bruce Mowbray: Can't seem to get them aligned right.
[13:48] Zen Arado: one moves they all move
[13:48] Santoshima Resident: need to click on the lot and rotate
[13:48] Zen Arado: wonder how they do that?
[13:48] Zen Arado: in RL I mean
[13:49] Bruce Mowbray: In RL I'd hope that they were in water, to begin with.
[13:49] Wol Euler smiles.
[13:49] Bruce Mowbray: ;-))
[13:50] Yakuzza Lethecus: onigokko
[13:50] Wol Euler: simulating the behaviour of flocks or schools is actually fairly easy, there are only two or three rules needed to get quite realistic results
[13:50] Korel Laloix: stop
[13:50] Zen Arado: fish looking for the ocean
[13:50] Zen Arado: like us :)
[13:50] Korel Laloix: lucky I just got back
[13:50] Yakuzza Lethecus: :)
[13:50] Wol Euler: heh

[13:50] Bruce Mowbray: So, how does one do a world search in Firestorm, anyway?
[13:51] Wol Euler: there's an icon on the tool bar (by default), a map with a magnifying glass on it
[13:51] Wol Euler: if not, you can call it up from the menu
[13:51] Santoshima Resident: > world> area search
[13:51] Bruce Mowbray: kk, found that.
[13:51] Wol Euler: so, on the "Find" tab, you type in what you are looking for
[13:52] Wol Euler: e.g. owned by Bruce Mobray
[13:52] DR42 Resident: Go to the "find" tab and enter your search filters.
[13:52] Wol Euler: *Mowbray
[13:52] Santoshima Resident: love, kindness, sense of balance
[13:52] Santoshima Resident: grace
[13:52] Bruce Mowbray: kk, will type that in, Wol. TY!
[13:52] Wol Euler: heheheheh
[13:52] Wol Euler: try that, san :)


[13:52] Santoshima Resident: ability to express gratitude
[13:52] Santoshima Resident: and to receive
[13:53] Wol Euler: true: being open to receive is a separate matter from simply finding :)


[13:54] DR42 Resident: Later, kind people.
[13:54] Korel Laloix: Ciao

[13:55] Santoshima Resident: need to try all the sims yu have ever visited since Blub's departure
[13:56] Bruce Mowbray: yeppers, not here.
[13:56] Bruce Mowbray: Hmmm. kk.
[13:56] Wol Euler: have a look in your teleport history, that will give you a few starting points
[13:56] Bruce Mowbray: There is a TP history, isn't there?
[13:56] Bruce Mowbray: kk. will do that later.
[13:56] Bruce Mowbray: Thank for the help, Wol.

[13:58] Rosatta Resident: Secondhand Portal has a lot of them but not that one

[13:58] Yakuzza Lethecus: may he swim eternally somewhere
[13:59] Bruce Mowbray: Yeas, the fishy version of transhumanism. . . trans-fishyism, perhaps.
[14:01] Bruce Mowbray: Have any of you heard about this opera? http://opera.media.mit.edu/projects/...handthepowers/ (pardon my interruption of the drop. . . . )

[14:03] Korel Laloix: OH I will... smiles.. ciao
[14:03] Bruce Mowbray: The Discover Magazine artical about Transhumanism is very good. I sure hope Blub reads it, wherever he may be.
[14:04] Bruce Mowbray: article*
[14:04] Rosatta Resident: I im'd Secondhand Portal to ask about Blub - or its clone.
[14:04] Rosatta Resident: They have gotten back with me and helped me in the past. Maybe Blub will return
[14:05] Bruce Mowbray: Thank you, Rosatta.
[14:05] Bruce Mowbray: Blub and I thank you.
[14:05] Rosatta Resident: yvw : )

[14:05] Bruce Mowbray: Well, it getting about time to scrape up some supper for my typist.
[14:06] Wol Euler smiles.
[14:06] Rosatta Resident: Hungry typists are grouchy
[14:06] Wol Euler: I always imagine roadkill stew when you say that
[14:06] Bruce Mowbray: You forget that my typist is vegan.
[14:06] Wol Euler: true :)
[14:06] Bruce Mowbray: (also grouchy, at times.)
[14:06] Wol Euler: scrape well, bruce, and enjoy the weeknd
[14:06] Rosatta Resident: Bye, Bruce
[14:07] Yakuzza Lethecus: good weekend everyone
