Second Life and Virtual Worlds
I couldn’t make it to the Bento meeting this week. Inara did and wrote a good write up with audio bits: SL project updates 16 29/2: viewer, Bento week 20 with audio.
Vir Linden, lead on Project Bento, is on vacation this week and next. But, other Lindens from the project made it to the meeting.
We are inundated with media reports of extreme heat and the disaster of manmade global warming. But, why aren’t we hearing these stories in the media:
Marine has released another couple of updates to the RLV viewer, 2.9.19 and 2.9.19.1. Also, there are some recommended changes to RLV itself. Marine has added some additional commands to the RLV process. See: RLV 2.9.19.

Today is the day. NIVIDA releases the GTX1060 @ MSRP US$249. Every place I’ve looked they are sold out.
The new GTX1060 has the same performance as the GTX980 but, for less money, even at eBay prices. At least for now. It takes time for those on eBay to catch up with the market.
There is a fun picture and article about an interesting swimsuit, the sharkini. See: How to Wear A Sharkini.

Just too fun not to mention plus I like image art of D&D.
There was a roll out to the main channel this week, Tuesday. This is another of those minor internal improvements.
There is no new package rolling to the RC channels this week. So, all servers on the main grid are running the same package.
