I've had guys try to pick me up while I'm dancing with someone else at almost every popular dance location in SL. Jerks are everywhere. It's easy enough to ignore them, so if everything else about the venue is good, I don't let the jerks run me off. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is true, things have changed a lot since my early days in SL. I haven't been to a dedicated sex region in about a decade, maybe a bit more, but they were full of idiots back in the day. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwynchisholm Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 12 minutes ago, kisket said: Did you try other viewers? I get pretty much the same results regardless of viewer, it’s just to be expected running the game at basically max settings in 4k. SL regardless of the viewer just doesn’t utilize the cpu all that well since its engine predates multicore rendering in games being relevant. Firestorm is actually one of the ones that performs better with my GPU from my experience, black dragon for example sees it as an intel igpu and disables a bunch of options outright which is nonsense. Ive yet to find any viewer that can use rebar properly as well, though it doesn’t seem to matter for anything other than dynamic texture memory being limited. It’s not like it won’t use more than 4gb of vram, it just doesn’t use more than 768mb for texture memory cache. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The men on the dedicated sex SIMS nowadays are quite shy in a lot of cases. Caitlin gets really upset at that, and has said to me many times they should be banned from the SIM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never learned to play guitar though & I seem to have forgotten how to play drums. In a college class one day, lol "panorama of world religions," some guys sitting behind me were talking to themselves about going onstage saying to themselves they needed a drummer. I turned around and looked back at them. Sandor, that was so fun. I was playing punk rock music as the drummer with these 3 guys in a college coffeehouse just for one night of my life, totally wonderful experience. I bet you miss that. Oh my dear effing god do I ever miss that!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll never get you anywhere. Did you learn any other instruments? I tried guitar. I couldn't get my fingers right for the cords. I tried keyboard too. But I fell in love with the drums back in grade 9 when I saw them in my highschool music room. So drums it's always been!!! My first instrument love. And they are staying with me for the rest of my life!!! Edited November 25, 2023 by Bagnu 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In SL now, I only go to blues clubs or other venues where I can dance on a dance line (DJs Yummy or Harmony at Fogbound) or in a club mover (Toby's or FAR Day events, always for both) while I chat and listen. It is very rare for any numb-nuts to bother me then. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen your SL drumset, post more. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are 40 years old, and been through a lot, but still holding up. Edited November 26, 2023 by Bagnu 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
