  1. 10 Users Groaned 13 Users Laughed 2 Users said Awww! 1 Sockpuppet Said Thanks
  2. 1000 is nothing, (less then a Starbucks) I've dropped more than that on random new people. However, random gifting is a technique that some phishers will use to launder the funds, I won't go into the full details. So your other friend is partially correct. In a super worst case, would you be banned? I doubt it. For such a small amount, if it were stolen, the most that might happen is the Lab take it out of your account. For a larger amount they might prevent your login for a day or so until everything can be investigated, but that's not really a ban, and not for just 1k. I really wouldn't worry. However, if you are still scared you can just send it to an avatar named "Governor Linden" and forget all about it.
  3. Lab are dealing with this - one assumes - as part of the server OS upgrades. So, nope, not 32 bit epoc. Wow, looks like it's using the flow of water from the faucet to make a vacuum? If that's the case hold the vacuum to one's bosom and *thwack* *ouch that hurts* as it's sucked violently into the cup.
  4. Interest inside the USA is rising, this means the dollar is still strong. But there is a small longer term risk. It all depends what happens with the intensity of the multiple trade wars Trump has declared on the rest of the world, especially the one against China. But even if America gets it's derriere handed to it on a plate, it won't be a huge movement (think in the order of a penny to start). The US economy is quite strong enough that it can cover a trade war for a little while. If one or two sectors of USA trade collapses, such as soy or beef, Trump can trivially prop that up with subsidies. The trade wars will need quite a few industries inside the USA to be hit before we start seeing the USD sinking too much. As well as that, Brexit is still a force dragging things down on the other side of the Atlantic. No, I don't think there will be too much movement in the greenback, but I do think a whole lot of hurt is going to hit USA farmers as their export markets completely dissapear.
  5. As Whirly says, clone the source code for the viewer and start learning how things work. The resources she listed will be invaluable! If you have the skill and want to be extra valued, work in linux there is a huge shortage of developers willing to assist with Linux issues.
  6. Like all rezzers, it will only work with copy furniture.
  7. J-Metal today, 「Akatsuki」 (instrumental only version) Trying to decide if I go and see them live in December, tickets are US$150 each O_O
  8. The price is fixed. US$ 149.00 which includes the first month's teir. After that it's US$109 a month on the anniversary date. You can't buy a homestead from the Lab unless you have and keep a full region first.
  9. Hopefully not yet, When OP is so rude to delete their OP... seems fair game to have a thread to discuss random minutia. Bonus points when the OP's original premise was a bit silly. Edit: keeps the discussion in one place and it's super easy for the Lab to nuke the thread out of existance. Without the OP, nothing of value is lost.
  10. It's how people attach estates like the blake sea-ish USS regions to mainland. http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Community_Land_Partnership_Program
  11. Interesting or not, it's really inadvisable. The number of males using female system bodies, alpha'd and meshed over, is surprisingly high. To the eye they look 100% male, but the female body has historically been smaller and more slender, so it's used a lot in male anime avatars. V-Tech's boi chest also adds another huge chunk of Male avatars who are in a female shape. Some Furries and Ferals and a fair slab of non-human avatars complete the mix.
  12. I want to see Jagix's avatar now 'cause Kristin's is a bit scary! /me imagines some timid griefer laying out some sim crashers and all of a sudden is a loud thump and metalic voice; "Freeze punk" as Kristin's avatar towers over them. <fade to black with terrified screams>
  13. Whats up with you today Mr Grumpy? 2 attacks in 10 minutes? And have I said that? I dont recall telling a person without fur they were not allowed to be a furry? Point me at a post and I will appologise for it. People have the right to say they are furry, even if they have smooth skin, just as i have the right to say I am not a furry despite having a tail.
  14. Yay for bunks! We can take turns asking the third person if they want top or b... ummm Yeah sure, I hear what you are saying Ethan, but this is a pretty hurt-filled thread. A lot of people get on the defensive, and a lot of hurt feelings to boot. Especially mine I'll go back to the "How do you report a land for..." thread and the ongoing discussion about nekos vs furries vs tribbles and leave this for the people who can do it better then me
  15. Yep, group-think. I went in to protect kids very early on, it wasn't pretty.
  16. A few nice posts to break tension are always good Trick is not to derail too much, I dont think those few do. ❤️
  17. I completely agree on buying the strawberries! Those farmers have lost so much and it's great to see ordinary people pulling together and helping them, same with the drought. Humanity as a whole does have a good heart and does care. I think that's a given.
