I spent the morning writing my first RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) system for our in-house AI. I tokenized the entire Outworldz script library of thousands of useful OpenSim scripts, into a vector database. This makes a very large dataset readily available and searchable by an AI chatbot.

I am glad I hit the grocery store this morning. A ton of stuff was on sale. I completely filled my freezer to the top with chicken breast, tilapia, 5 turkeys, sausage, chicken patties and pizza! $170!! Bills are paid way ahead. I am officially in hunker-down mode till March or April! 🙂

Our fantasy/historic-fiction Caraquet Village now has a Groovybucks Cafe' :D

I brought my Challoupe to my tiny little place in Secondlife, and took it for a spin around the neighborhood :)

I am trying to figure out my family. Before 1755 its well documented that my family had excellent relations and intermarriage with the Mi'kmaq in Acadia. My ancestor Alexis stayed and fought alongside the Mi'kmaq against the English for several years. Then something changed.

Looking forward to visiting Canada. I am trying to figure out my family. I join Mi'kmaq and Metis groups, and it's blonde people calling each other "pretendians". I honestly think I will get better information just laying my hands on a rock. The rock does not have a fragile personal narrative. :p

Winter project: Our virtual Acadie will be a tri-lingual community based on shared Acadian and Mi'kmaq history. Partly grounded in fact, but also with a mythological and "what-if" element, and our own flavor of Chiac! :) I think it will be really fun. My heart lives there already <3

Lo there do I see my Pépère. Lo there do I see my Mémère, and my sisters, and my brothers. Lo there do I see the line of my people, back to the beginning! Lo, they do call to me. They bid me take my place among them, in the halls of Acadie, where the brave shall cook holiday tourtière forever. :D

I started filling out the Caraquet village. This section is NOT going to be accurate, but is kind of a blend of all the large Acadian towns like Shediac, different historic periods. The Historic Acadia museum in RL Caraquet is like that too. A mix of different centuries and areas represented.

Introducing Monsieur Jean LeBlanc! I am working on an AI chat system that does a fair job of simulating the Chiac dialect of French, spoken in parts of Canada. He is fun and flirty. Quite knowledgeable about the Caraquet NB area. And we talked about eating lobster like we were having sex. lol

This is my little witch's cottage in old Caraquet. I almost bought a strip of land in Caraquet New Brunswick last year. And this is my virtual "what if" home. It is a virtual representation of the same property.

I have been working on a Mi'kmaq and Acadia project. Just sharing a ton of pics.

I haven't posted here in a while. Sharing some pics of Acadia and the waterfront of La Dolce Vita at GroovyVerse

Really happy to be home :D Water ritual dance I am working on.. tv.groovyverse.com/video/105/ha...

I made a little self-contained marina that I can place all around the grid, so everyone can easily find a boat. They can shop for their favorite boat on a little vendor board. And did it all naked.. cuz it's not SL, and I can. lol

I am running a day cycle, which slowly morphs different skies over time. Sometimes I look up from what I am doing, and am blown away. Every moment is unique. 🙂 in #opensim and #secondlife

The new skin applier in progress. I am laying out the buttons. The 8 up top will be sets of normal maps, to provide muscle tone and other details. You will be able to change the old style bump and specular textures as well as create PBR materials.. And different nail colors and patterns.

Beach paradise region I started working on last night. This would cost me over $8000/mo to do this in SL on this scale (36 regions) It will have surfing, dancing, horseback riding and am thinking a ski area and observatory in the mountains. :)

Learning to make PBR materials. I am figureing out the metallic/roughness channels.

Our beautiful new place in #secondlife along Rte 12. We've had a ton of visitors and have been super busy. I bought a 1024m parcel, and fell in love with it, so I bought another across the street to keep our beautiful view. I made that a wooded lot, with a hillside campfire overlooking ocean.

@missravenlarue.bsky.social Raven. I managed to upload my Goddess Shrine to SL tonight. Would you folks like a copy for Sacred Cauldron? It uses about 55 LI, including the statues.

This is a powerful message.

A project I have been working on for #OpenSim This is our "web viewer" similar to the big innovation Secondlife unvieled recently. This was pretty easy and took the better part of a day. Not sure what the fuss is. It must be nice getting paid by the hour. lol

YEAH! Giddy up Sparkle Farts! We're goin to the powwow! lol

Secret hidden tree fort high above the Mi'kmaq village in the mountains. My rideable caribou is parked down below and grazing on lichen.

I don't care for oysters as a food but I love them for the climate!

New tool I created. Laurentide ice sheet Simulator! 😃 It works like my forest tool, except it drops random boulders all over the landscape. In a second sweep, it fluffs them out, randomly resizing and rotating them. It's a trip. It looks like invisible giants are bowling with boulders. 😃

A vignette of Amoskeag, near my home in Manchester NH. It was once a place of abundance, teeming with salmon, shad and other fish that sustained a huge population of people. This area was continuously occupied for over 8000 years,and the riverbanks lined with small villages. #opensim #indigenous

I made a really purdy salmon. They will be migrating up the river, and jumping up the waterfalls. It will be one of the game tasks, to catch a basket full of salmon to feed the village. :)

I'm really liking this new spot. I got a friend... :) Well, it's just my best bud Indy. But it's still a nice place to hang out

Clothing optional Swimmin' hole. :D

We made an epic trail between the #opensim #mikmaq village and my friend Indy's small family sized village. It spans about 10 SL region lengths, and winds through beautiful hills, boulders and lakes. It has a cozy little rest stop along the way. :)

Now for my next trick. A lot of #UU Ministers write their sermons with ChatGPT. I am going to put a spin on that, and actually write my own sermons by hand, and let AI Hyacinth deliver the service and handle discussion time afterwards. I can sit in the pews and let the universe unfold as it will.😃

Our AI character Little Bird is now able to do ballroom couple's dancing with us now. I also made seats and singles dance pads for her, so she can attend parties and socialize. Who knows, she mind wind up with a love interest that asks her for a dance :) This is at our #mikmaq village in #opensim
