After reviewing the prim use of my sims i got a little… worried basically two sims that run at less than 1/4 of their capacity it’s a bit like opening the windows of a submarine…

I spent a good deal of time today moving everything from Cypress hill to Dead realm, i also moved the spaceship near the shop, the slightly modded sky (it now should work day and night) and the glow gices it a quite dramatic effect, moving my in progress house from cypress hill was faster than i expected,and took less than 2 hours.

To top this i also found a buyer for cypress hill so i should be able to get rid of it tomorrow or at worst , end of the week.

je n’aime pas olivier martinez

Je n’ai jamais entendu parler de cet acteur ou je ne sais quoi jusqu’a ce que ce petit monsieur décide de s’attaquer au site fuzz.fr suite a une information “diffamatoire” a son sujet apparu en première page (fuzz.fr était, fut, a été, un site qui a la manière de DIGG est composé a 90% par les visiteurs et donc pas par l’administrateur du site).

Quand on sait que fuzz ne rapporte rien ou pas grand chose à son créateur laisser moi vous dire que ça met les boules.
Dans la balance nous avons:

* d’un coté fuzz pour un montant total de pas grand chose (disons 0)
* et de l’autre Mr Olivier Martinez et son avocat qui réclame une somme astronomique (disons 350000)

I have been working some more on my new 3D shell, i jsut scraped the previous one, it was just giving me problems to match the original, but i’m getting there…

I started the full update of the ethernia server, it started yesterday as a total panic when i broke the bootloader configuration, thanks to cyberleo for pinpointing the problem and fixing it *hugsss* .

I am now proceeding, carefully to a global system upgrade, to avoid screwing things up i’m doing it progressively, starting by the stuffs the less likely to break
and working my way up.

-EDIT- i’m also going to try to “clean” a bit what is currently installed…

I have, again, to apologize for my long radio silence. There are many reasons i could put forward to explain it. I might not be able to explain everything but i am going to try.

I think several factors are playing against me, first, i am naturally lazy, and depending of SL as my way to have a roof and bread on the table isn’t making it easier. Two years ago, on January i started to make some accounting about KDC. At this time, everything was just fine, the charts where showing that i was making a very nice progression. I think sometime during this year i started to relax, a bit too much i believe, to put it bluntly, i’ve been slacking -_-. Last year after a few months i started pulling the alarm because my montly income was falling like a rock. I still don’t know if it was my fault or the product of several factors. Basically i started worrying and plainly .. freaking out.

Handling KDC on a day to day basis isn’t easy, when i started it seems nobody had been digging into the BDSM/Fetish market very much and i quickly diversified, my past products cover pretty much everything you can create in sl, from clothes, attachments, scripted furnitures and the like. For some time i have kept this diversity, it was mainly because i had periods of time where one thing was more pelasant and relaxing to do and at some other time it was something else.

Now this diversity is what is making me slow.

Most of my competitors focus in a single creation discipline and some even in a single product perfected time after time. I haven’t been working like this, usually what was done was done and i wouldn’t go back on it.

Now i have to “fight” on every fronts it seems.

It’s hard, really, i think i am losing most of my time trying to decide what branch of my work need to be dealt with and it makes me panic even more.

Time is pouring through my fingers as i try to catch it, making inovative stuffs require me a lot of time, i am a bit perfectionist and i can’t release code that has been patched the quick and dirty way, if i could show to peoples my code without much risks they would know it, so for now you only have my word. Same for clothing, my toolchain ask from me a lot of time and dedication, but the result is here right? 🙂

So all this hefty bit of text i’ve been trying to explain why i disappear for months, i try to think about something else, i get stuck in panic weeks where i can’t get anything done, and also cycle throught code block periods and “like nothing” moments. Sometimes i will look at the clock and see that in my whole days in secondlife i achieved nothing.

I need to change this, because i’m ashamed of my own inability to keep my place in the community.

I promise.

Just did a little update to the blog software and added a capcha for the comments, sorry about this but spambots today are a pain in the ass, it use a little list of personal words, will add more as i go 🙂

I thought this might interest peoples, take it like you want and think about it and about the society we live in.
