Thinkerer Melville Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I don't have to pretend and you don't have to pretend. I am comortably retired and spend 40 - 60 hours/week in sl or on actvities related to SL. Furthermore, I have already provided a report of the things I am attending to.

Madeliefste Oh Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I would do the same as I do now: create meshes, create textures, run some shops and have a good talk with a friend now and then. There are also some things that I would do different, I would hire one or more people to support my business. I could use at least a marketing manager, but also a business manager, a photographer, a machinima maker, an animator and a sound artist and a lobbyist. So the time I spend now on marketing and adminstration and such I would spend on communicating with people who are willing (and paid well) to add their own creativity to my enterprise.

In that case, I'll go hang with Trinity and perhaps she would teach French to me and we could do a European tour. I would reciprocate, of course, and take her on a virtual tour of the US.

solstyse Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I would continuously run different operating systems finding new and creative ways to make sl run on everything. I would spend some time on each and every viewer, in Winxp, win7, win8, Android (GB, ICS, and JB) Linux Mint, LMDE, Ubuntu (probably 11, since it seems that 12 is where it all went wrong), Debian, mandriva, and OpenSuse just to see how different the experience is. then I would port the x86 versions to the ARM archetecture, and virtualize ARM in x86. After all that, i would try to convince someone with more than the middle class resources that you're willing to give me to make a cloud based viewer so that I could use a server as my desktop at my laptop to run sl. And if I succeeded at that, then I would use my phone, in Unity, to access the server that accesses the server just to see how far downstream I can go.

Running Ubuntu 12.10 ( with KDE 4.9.4 ) . Nothing wrong with it. On my pc, that distro won't run sl. I've been reading into it, and I come upon some info about libfontconfig issues. I'm not sure if those have been fixed or not. But then AMD only offers the proper drivers on my PC for 12.04 and below. I'm a huge fan of proprietary drivers. My version of Ubuntu was running the Unity desktop. But that was before I discovered Linux Mint. When I saw the Cinnamon desktop it was love at first sight. But mint is available based on either Ubuntu or on Debian. When I scoured reviews, I got the impression that between the font issues and the driver issues, Ubuntu and Ubuntu based systems were more problematic in terms of compatibility starting with version 12.04 than in previous distros. And when I was running older versions of Ubuntu, it just worked. Now it doesn't for me. (I'm currently running Linux Mint 14, which is based on Ubuntu 12.10.) Now, everything I've read has me thinking that the best solution for me is to go to the debian based version of Mint. I can be misinterpreting that though. To tell the truth, I'm a Linux novice. Not as clueless as a Noob, but still probably what would be considered below average. So I guess I mean if you can give me any advice, I would greatly appreciate it. If you'd rather start a seperate thread where we can get all technical instead of jacking this thread, just give the word. I'd be glad to learn.

solstyse Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 The problem is that back in my Win7 days even, Ubuntu just seemed to perform better for me when it was version 11 than version 12 also. And the two really shouldn't affect eachother anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syo Emerald Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I think within the first days I would spend my time shopping and then maybe attend some classes to learn building and stuff. Maybe I would rent some land and start to work again in SL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porky said 37,5 for a middle class salary... so its up to him... Or we divide the 37,5 hours per 2 since we are 2 and he will give only one salary that we will share... Or.... well if he wants to give 2 salaries, one per person, so we will work for him during 37,5 hours indeed... @ Porky : by what do you want we start ?

Knowl Paine Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I would like to start a Production Company, to make Movies in SL. The Studio could also produce, and broadcast, MP Video product tours (commercials, you tube, or SL tv) Create a Builders Group, and sponsor a Regional Sandbox, to scout for new talent, and to stay up to date on the latest builds. Create several additional Groups, and a few Advocacy Groups. Start a land-Advert company, begin purchasing mainland micros. Create several Co-op Web based initiatives, which may compliment SL, and generate revenue in SL. Create an Inworld Store / MP Store, offering a Builders product listing service. (profit share) Create a Charitable Group, to support other favorable Groups in SL. Create a few more Groups. (lol, can't tell you all my ideas) Ask,... beg, a certain Company to join SL. Finish the things left undone. That's about enough, to get started. Oh yeah, the Hub idea..., add 1 more Region. A Build team, in each Time Zone, would also be helpful. and a couple bilingual people. and some shirts, and online indicators.. ok I'm done. for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well im sure Porky will pay us an extra for this ! :smileyvery-happy: @Porky, you should tell pp to not apply anymore bec you have the best team you may ever dream. Tell everyone the job is already given and send the contracts, the money... and let's pop up a bottle of champagne... Well since the hours of work will be divided by 3, i wont need to leave my rl job (that i like) and it will be still far less than the time im usually spending in SL, so i will have time to go on designing for my SL brand aswell...

Excellent thinking, Trinity! I've always wanted my own sim but that pesky detail called "finances" always got in the way. I would think one sim shared between us would be enough with space for 16 when she visits to provide legal advise. Or do we need two? Hmmm....will have to think on this.
