    For the cheapest option on your list, RAM, you plan to buy pretty few: try 32 or 64 GB or even more 

    I'd put your focus on programs and buy depending on their needs... and probably not the i5. The Alder Lake generation was just released, with its fast DDR5 RAM or good, old Ryzens, 3700x / 5600(x) / 5800 or even higher.   

    3060 ... *shrugs* does its job. Buying any GPU these days sucks anyway... unless you get a deal.

    So what monitor do you got right now?

    Nah, his ram is fine at 16 gigs (if he gets an i7, i9, or AMD Ryzen 7/9). But it never hurts to increase ram. Youre right about the i5 tho...it will probably throttle the 3060.

    One should not disclose relationship antics in a forum. Just sayin'.

    You know what, you're right. I used a personal example of what happens with a specific bug and the brilliant specimens of humanity who reside on this forum went above and beyond the call of stupidity to showcase their "freedom" to comment on it because its a public forum and anything goes. I should have known better. My bad.

    Hi. A friend of mine and I both noticed we were suddenly teleporting by accident by double-clicking way more often than usual. Usually, your muscle memory knows how frequent is frequent enough to not trigger a teleport, but it was a startling change one day, a few weeks ago. And it happened subsequently in at least two different sims (only 2-3 agents present on average, a low-prim/mesh sky platform, Sim FPS 45.0, Physics FPS 45.0, we're on two different continents). It's been intermittently persistent throughout these weeks now. Some days it's ok, some day's it's bad. It's particularly annoying when shift-clicking to select/deselect objects in Edit.

    Anyone else experienced an increase in double-click-teleport accidents lately? Any idea what causes it?

    Its a known super annoying bug that LL refuses to patch up. Every viewer has it and will not be fixed until LL gets around to it which will probably be never. I can't cuddle with my girl and terraform at the same time because of it.

    I am not sure what they'll be served if I do that, but if I give them a static image from my browser, then I may be reasonably certain they are seeing it as I do because it's a bespoke meta object. Therefore, this is a record of how things seem from my position in spacetime, recorded for posterity.

    Ok I live on a mountain in a rural area, is satellite internet ok with secondlife? I played other games and had over 1k ping and frozen screens in those games when I tried satellite before but I don't think I ever tried it with secondlife.

    I can only get satellite  for right now, no other available internet other than the Hughes net satellite. I had ATT wireless internet that pinged off a tower nearby the home but was dumb and canceled it to save money. Now for some reason I can't get that internet back because all the spots are taken by other people and I have to wait.  

     

    So is satellite with secondlife somewhat decent? Or will I lag walk and freeze and constantly crash?

    If you had high ping in other games, it will be the same in Second Life. Satellite internet is generally crap. You will get high ping no matter what game you play.

     Premium plus?. Any news.

    Any news on any other of the myriad of things they promised?.

    Anything significant happen at all?.

    Chance of new last names soon?.

    Lowering land prices yet?....seem to be happy increasing the cost of buying lindens. What did we get in return for that?.

    You need to come back in years, not months. Maybe a few decades.

    There are some things that many people take for granted that I don't enjoy. I don't enjoy close relationships with other people or beings for example. I'm not a "touchy-feely" kinda person - I prefer keeping my distance from others. I try to appear enthusiastic in social situations but maybe I'm just faking it? I don't smile a lot. Among other stuff.

    I've read that such things make a person "soulless"....

    Sure. I'm soulless too.

    Hiya!

    It's like we said in the message: We've decided to pause development on this branch, but we are working on a new direction for mobile, and think it will be exciting news.  This Linden, for one, is really looking forward to being able to talk about it.

    Unless it's a full on 3D mobile viewer (which lumiya achieved) it's gonna be a severe miss. That's the only direction for mobile.

    Sending out group notices is somehow broken since the introduction of Viewer 2 in 2010. Group notices to people who are offline are gathered under this annoying little postage stamp at the upper right corner of your screen, called 'chicklets'. Almost no one pays attention to these chicklets when they log in. Therefore, the majority of group notices are lost to people in SL. Most group owners are familiar with the phrase "I didn't see any group notice" all too well for over a decade since.

    This is why so many businesses in SL use special messaging systems (some of which, sadly, are op-out, rather than opt-in).

    LL breaks something and NEVER fixes it.

    TIP: Send out a group notice one or two days before you are going to delete the group. Then on the day itself, announce the impending deletion and the reason behind it in the group chat.

    It saves a lot of hurt feelings.

    I did. I did that for a whole 2 weeks before things shut down. It wasn't just one notice. But even if someone doesnt do a notice, they should still have the option to not let people know they are being ejected.

  11. So I had this group with over 800 people in it connected to a sim I had closed over a year ago. The group has been defunct for the same length of time. I had just forgotten about it and finally got around to kicking out the remaining 200 or so people who were left so the group could be deleted. Problem is, LL...in their infinite wisdom, has it so when you remove people from a group, they are all notified about their ejection. Ever since this morning, I have had random people IM me asking why they were kicked and some making me out to be the biggest a-hole on SL for ejecting them from a defunct group and sim that hasn't been active for over a year.

    Why there is no option of not notifying people of ejection is beyond me. So Thank you for a full day of absolute annoyance because I wanted to get rid of a group that I created 2 years ago.
