Aspasia of Miletus

On Thursday, Sept. 13, Ebbe Altberg the CEO of Linden Lab, hosted a town hall meeting for all Second Life residents. The town halls deliver a better insight of what changes might be in the agenda of Linden Lab. This last one was definitely worth the time. So, you ask, what’s coming? Last avatar names are finally returning. According to Ebbe, this change to take effect sometime in the end of 2018 or beginning of 2019. There will also be new premium subscription options very soon, a Linux viewer, and marketplace improvements.

Speaking of important announcements, Hair Fair 2018 is almost here. Saturday, Sept. 22 is the first day of this beloved annual event that so many people anxiously wait for. The best way to prepare your shopping list and avoid the lag monster is to join the Hair Fair Group to access demos and direct landmarks.

 

Between the Hair Fair and our awesome fantasy designers, I have plenty to be excited about, and today Faida and Velvet Whip made my day. These two stores has been a staple of role-play fashion – especially gor – and a few months ago, they committed to a wonderful partnership to create scripted pieces of clothing. This puppy does about everything for you. When someone touches your dress, you will be asked to authorize the person. If permission is granted, the other player will be allowed to rip your clothing going from fully covered to naked. You also have emote options, and you may ban or unban users from your preferences. It is so much to fun to play with!

"References to a powerful woman named Aspasia, the live-in partner of the ancient Greek statesman Pericles, appear in the writings of Plato, Aristophanes, Xenophon and other classical Athenian authors. It is thought that she was born in the Ionian colony of Miletus around 470 B.C. and moved to Athens, where she became a hetaera—a type of courtesan who received an education in order to keep intelligent, sophisticated men company—and possibly ran a brothel. She then moved in with Pericles and bore him a son; according to Plutarch, the prominent politician loved her so much that he kissed her every morning and evening until the day he died. Because Aspasia was a foreigner, Athenian law prevented the couple from marrying."
