I have been running servers for several years but I get more and more tired of battling spam and intrusions from east and china. I am thinking about pulling down the OSgrid and webservers. Mail is already offline. It is time to clean up the internet. I have had thousands of people trying to get in to my computers for more than 20 years. Most of them from China. Or so the logs say. maybe they are just idiots.

It is so much now I am thinking of pulling the development network offline and only open for updates.

I do not understand why we cannot have a network where servers have to have someone actually responsible for what they do on the web. Or a blacklist system. You have to stand up for what you do in real life why not on the internet.

People abusing each other not being responsible for what the say. Never in real life. Why on the internet??

Internet the communication network for cowards. No more hiding behind your IP. It is time for the web to grow up.

A new virtual world can look something like this. My new computer build. This is what it looks like in the beginning. I got tired of my old grid/farm computer so I decided to work on a new one this summer. Ready to be a flowering world when I end my vacation. Well half a vacation. Bad weather so working indoors is ok. And building computers is what I like the most not really work for me.

Another super arty farty place to visit. I wish i had a week just to explore the art scene in Second life.

At The University of Western Australia (UWA) you can find some very new art. When i walked around the exhibition i found that art in Second life is finding its own way. Moving away from just copying real life art to get its own expression. Many of the objects have a real virtual world feeling.

It is hot and i am not good at that. So i am indoors writing and visiting new places.

Cloud Apmel is a new place in clud party. It is great that Apmel have a new place to try out things so i do not have too.

Saves me time and i get a place to explore a warm Sunday.

I am going for a cold drink. Exploring continues.

Nothing much to do today so I decided to check out the cloud based Opensim worlds called Kitely https://www.kitely.com .

It is Opensim and for people who like to build you get big areas for a good price.

But it is not a world like a grid. No way to travel around and it takes a while to get a server running. I think Second life do not have to be worried.

The new cloud based idea is probably used by Linden lab too, I really hate not be able to travel around like I used to always have to wait for sims to come up.

I want one universe like EVE or Entropia. I want to travel to distant places. That’s my thing.
