Elon Musk buys Twitter to bring back Free Speech
Talon Brown replied to Arielle Popstar's topic in General Discussion Forum
Maybe you should practice what you preach and be more tolerant of other people's beliefs. -
What do you want to look like, males?
Talon Brown replied to HeathcliffMontague's topic in Your Avatar
I don't want to look like a bodybuilder. I want to look like Mike Ness of Social Distortion circa the early 90s or Dean Winchester from Supernatural. Ruggedly handsome but not a model. I'm just getting into mesh bodies after fighting it all these years and finding a face I like is a nightmare. I had a system body and punk style I was happy with and trying to replicate that in mesh has been nothing but sheer aggravation. -
Preferred methods of communication in Second Life?
Talon Brown replied to Gopi Passiflora's topic in General Discussion Forum
Alternatively, perhaps they're IMing you because they find trying to have an actual conversation in local, amidst all the other chatter going on, frustrating AF and it's easier to focus on talking to one person in IM. Or maybe that's just me. -

Talon Brown replied to Gopi Passiflora's topic in General Discussion Forum
I prefer IM in general. Local in a group environment. I despise voice and have it disabled. The few times I've enabled it have indicated that I have zero interest in listening to the people that love to use it. -
Music Club Peeve & A Bit of Overdue Ranting
Talon Brown replied to TaraSimone Sixpence's topic in General Discussion Forum
The problem is a lot of you seem to think the DJs working these clubs have any say in any of that nonsense. Next time you're in a club with these issues look for the DJ application and read it. You'll be surprised at how many rules and requirements they have for staff they're not even paying. -
Coders don't understand what builders want.

I'm pretty sure the coders aren't the problem here. -
Secondlife declining player base
Talon Brown replied to Cheza Tearfall's topic in General Discussion Forum
It's taking up valuable server space that's desperately needed for yet more political threads. -
Interesting, it seems someone is doing a bit of purging in this thread. Posts I wrote earlier are nowhere to be found but responses to them were left behind. I wasn't warned or given any notice that I have violated any rules so I must presume that someone is playing favorites behind the scenes.

Women are merely "people with uteruses" and now fetuses are merely tissue to be excised without a second thought like a cyst. This is why I laugh at you, your increasingly dehumanizing rhetoric is so abhorrent that it's either laugh or cry in despair at the worldview you espouse.

How to DJ Legally in SL
Talon Brown replied to Desiree Moonwinder's topic in General Discussion Forum
Yet again I'm amazed at the lengths some people are willing to go to in order to placate their corporate overlords. Geoblocking is a thing, VPNs to bypass it are also a thing. The internet was designed to survive a nuclear war, it's also designed to route around censorship no matter how valid one may consider it to be. I personally consider that a feature, not a bug. -

I hope all your listeners are in Canada or else you're also violating music industry "laws." From their website All TorontoCast streams are Licensed by SOCAN under tarring code 22f and are under the ownership of TorontoCast. The SOCAN license covers Canadian listeners. Additionally, there could be licensing obligations in other territories potentially according to those territories licensing laws. -

You know I'm getting real tired of you conflating actual laws with whatever bull****** propaganda the music industry uses to scare people into submission. You're not going to goto jail for not paying their "licensing" fees. They may sue you but that's a civil, not criminal case. As for what you can do, you can do anything you want as long as you're willing to accept the consequences. Some of us are clearly less worried about them than others here.
