For the first time in as long as anybody can remember, there was a Town Hall meeting at Pooley. For those unable to attend, here is a summary.
RESIDENTS: Gah Fix it !
LINDENS: We’re working on stuff (but not what you think)
RESIDENTS: Oh fuck
LINDENS: Bye
Second Life and Second Citizen
The grid suffered more problems yesterday, with Linden Lab announcing at one point “we have taken Second Life temporarily offline for maintenance”. This blogger has learned that this was due to the need to divert all of the Lab’s technical resources to Ubunto, where a group of highly-favoured Second Citizens had gathered.
A massive power surge in the sim was blamed for the hiatus.
Quite why Linden Lab would run to help these people while other residents suffered is unclear although this blogger has heard rumours of corruption at the very highest levels.
Phreak …
… is still awesome.
Second Citizen
In a joyous flurry of debates on gun control, public nudity and depression, not to mention frivolous lawsuits, Second Citizen celebrated its first birthday. Pretty much everybody said ‘WTG, FIC :wub:’
Those unfamiliar with Second Citizen would do well to read this summary of the first year.
Second Life
In a joyous celebration of random grid outages, inventory and teleport problems, Linden Lab identified a “minor networking problem”.
This blogger would like to thank Second Citizen, Madison Paine for first posting the truth.
Phreak
An anonymous, but highly-placed source informs this blogger that Phreak has been taken over by the Chinese. It is apparently part of the North Korea deal. Stay tuned (geddit ?) for more details and programming changes.
