Content

Furry gatherings, predatory land barons, and a vigorous sex trade. Second Life is a massively multiplayer game launched in 2003, but was so creatively empowering that its communities remain active to this day. Within its virtual universes, portraits of humanity veer from the touching to the profoundly cursed.

Thanks for supporting us on patreon!

Fsh. Listen guys, despite your sexy ASMR-ness, what you’ve failed to appreciate is that The Rig is also a shoulder workout!

Very cool episode, I just wanted to comment two things. 1. About the pattern thing and crashing the interview. I used to be a Something Awful fan a long time ago, and I remember they used to have "Griefing Report" articles, and custom Second Life patterns were a part of it. IIRC, "islands" could only have so much processing power attached to them, so if you ran a whole lot self-replicating patterns, you could eat up too much of the processing power and crash everything, which is probably what happened there. Also IIRC, intentionally crashing the game or otherwise messing with it was one of the few things you could be banned for, so it was sort of like a trolling nuclear option only done when you really wanted to mess with the person, or done carefully to where you could try to claim that you didn't mean to, you didn't know that so many of your troll buddies would show up and also run self-replicating goo, etc.

Also 2. I'm a librarian and one of the things I saw in my school's holdings when I was going for my Master's was some old books about librarianship in Second Life. I was too repulsed at the idea to look too deep into it, but apparently along with major corporations thinking that SL was going to be the wave of the future, a number of librarians thought it was going to be the future too. And they had enough clout to get the American Library Association publish some books and academic papers that they wrote on the subject. Considering that I've never seen anything of it in the modern day I can only assume that the whole thing must have been quietly scrapped and never spoken of again. I've thought of looking into that rabbit hole to see just what happened, but the whole thing just seemed too pathetic and sad to me.

how could they leave out Esteban Winsmore, maybe he's too bait?
