The technical stuff here is really over my head, but is this why after the cloud started delivering the servers the Loonetta and other boats stopped working reliably? The Loonetta for me every 20 minutes stops after a region crossing like the avatar has stood up even though they haven't. With Mesh Shop and Bandit boats the Avsit fix made them useable again (eg HVW ones). My understanding of these fixes is that they introduce a delay into a timing in the script to give more time for the regions to report the transfer. These problems affect people a little differently but they are very widely reported, the Loonetta in particular is rarely used any more because of the problem. If so then the problem might be related to a change that happened around the time of the move to the cloud. I did try to introduce it into a Jira, but don't really understand them. The Jira got closed as accepted and then couldn't see what was being done with it if anything.

I am being perhaps a little over cautious but I would advise against starting your explorations of mainland with a "large" boat. I do like sailing my N&K Square rigger, but it is not a beginner boat. One problem with large boats is that unless you stick exclusively to the main waterways you may find rezz areas that don't have enough prims for you. A medium to small boat is much better for your first adventures. Kingpost is a good place to start. Rezz your boat and head North and then East to go to the Blake Sea area. Head South to go to Bellisseria. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Kingpost/77/158/22 For a good first boat that is free :https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Michie-Marine-Classic-HT/8080288 Tips Keep the scripts and complexity of your avatar down Press Ctrl-Shift-M to bring up the minimap. R-click on the minimap and show property lines. It will help you see where region crossings are and show parcel boundaries. With a bit of pattern recognition and experience it will help with finding rezz areas. Avoid crossing regions at their corners. At a corner the server has to deal with two region crossings in quick succession, best to give them at least 10-20m space if you can to give the servers time to process the crossings and to avoid problems.

Diamonds waypoint hud is very good. It outputs in USB format that will work with other huds too. I use it all the time.

For me it was not limited to the landmark folder. The duplicates I deleted when testing were in folders for clothes bought from a store.

I thought you might mean this world map: https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Da Boom/120/40 but landmarks don't obviously work with that to my knowledge, but I thought you might be saying there was a way to use or store landmarks on it. I hadn't noticed the landmarks in the Viewer world map option.... but now you mention it I have had a look. The Landmarks there appear to correspond with ones in my inventory. I copied the name of one of the landmarks there that came up multiple times and deleted all but one from my inventory. When I look at the drop down on world map again for the landmarks there is now just the one entry .... so editing landmarks in my directory in Firestorm appears to edit those that appear in the World Map landmark list. Is that not working for you?

And yes going up through L-Shaped lake and past the Particle laboratory is very doable. I sometimes forget it because it used to have nasty banlines above the L-shaped lake but last few years I think they have gone.

The reason I have the parcel shown with Home icon on the map for 10 years (Part of FIYC's EPI Centre) is its location midway between Sea of Fables and Bay of Space Pigs It is also possible to take the green route, but there is a parcel with banlines, on a region corner, over openwater.. that makes that route more tricky. With careful placement of waypoints, and warning sailors... you can take a cruise through there.... but it is at limit of people's tolerance for that sort of thing on a public cruise.

I think this route whilst longer is much easier and quite scenic. Where it looks like I have drawn a house... I am actually tring to show 3 alternatives.. over the years there has been security along one of them making other option preferable, but basically the three are all relatively easy, without leaving protected water.

I don't think I have seen any, Are there any? Waterways around Nautilus in particular are notorious for gangs of the little feathery thugs... like these: Tough little pirates of the waterways, that will stop boats regardless of size to mug them! In fishing communities around the globe Cafe owners have resorted to all sorts of deterrents for them, Venice made water pistols popular... So if none in Bellisseria, and no obvious water pistols... what is the technique used to keep them out? Ultrasonics?

Once you have done that tap your down arrow and the inventory view goes back to show the folder you were looking for.

I have linked this tune before, but worth repeating. Alice Coltrane — harp, piano Joe Henderson — alto flute, tenor saxophone Pharoah Sanders — alto flute, tenor saxophone, bells Ron Carter — bass Ben Riley — drums From a comment:: "Turiya," according to the album's liner notes was defined by Coltrane as a state of consciousness—the high state of Nirvana, the goal of human life, while "Ramakrishna" was a 19th-century Bengali religious figure and also denotes a movement founded by his disciples. So presumably, this song is about the passage of Ramakrishna into the state of great nirvanic consciousness

Some spiritual Jazz: This one is based on a traditional Indian raga. The name means “he who wears serpents like garlands,” referencing the god Shiva, and Cherry’s interpretation builds and unfolds in dazzling fashion.

So much emotion in this... Max Roach: drums - Coleridge Perkinson: piano - Eddie Kahn : bass - Clifford Jordan: Tenor sax - Abbey Lincoln : vocals

From 1963 some bluesy jazz

It used to be quite common for people to make "tribute bands" in SL, where you would go and watch people dressed up like the band, dancing on stage with musical instruments to a soundtrack of a mix of live recordings of the bands music. They would often do flyers for promotion. I remember seeing a fully choreographed Madonna set at an SL Pride event that was especially well done. I don't see that so much any more, but I think that is more a fashion thing than any legal issues. Until your post it never even occurred to me there could be a legal issue. I don't recall ever promoting any DJing I have done in posters mentioning names of bands, I would be more likely to mention genres like Swing, Jazz Fusion, 80s or Prog Rock sets rather than specific band names. My understanding is that IP issues require the IP owner to make a complaint, and then Linden Lab would remove the content and notify the alleged infringer of the complaint and their rights to object. I think it would normally only be repeat offenders, or those that relisted things that had been removed that would face bans. Applied to your case i think it unlikely you would have a problem.

Winner of the 2019 Grammy award for best Jazz album. Brad Mehldau is a relatively new find for me, and everything I hear by him wonderful and creative., stretching boundaries, fusing influences to masterfully create something new from all the elements. From the same album:

Henry mancini with my favourite theme tune...
