    I have only good memories from my early days a Caledon. Even took some Blender classes there, and got the very basics. The very, very basics. Very. Did I say very? An actual class, text and all, beats YouTube any day. It can be very social too. It's just that we are too lazy to follow a class structure and the YT tutorials are there any time. I keep meaning to go back, but I always come up with excuses.

    Hello. My name is Heath. I started out as Heathcliff Montague based solely on some books on my shelf and a few shots of vodka. But that became too complicated for some, so just Heath it is. Frankly my very first avi was female, but that was way before I really understood what SL actually was. I just figured it would be cooler to slay dragons like that. Hopefully she never rises, as she's buried with a viking sword somewhere in the bits and bytes.

    Nope. They grow something. Not the good stuff. For pets I guess.

    Mainland at night can be pretty peaceful. Neighbour on one side sells some Japanese stuff that I don't know what is, but a very polite person, neighbour on the other side has an amusement park that somehow adds very little lag. My li'l house in the middle there. Across the street is a nice couple. I only have one rule

    Is "oh hi! So nice to see you again" a lost art in SL? 😊

    Hope this is an understandable, simple question: I'm Premium (regular) and have a 1024 Mainland plot (ie. zero monthly tier cost). If I upgrade my tier to 2048 (ie add 1024 to my 1024), can I keep my 1024 and get a Linden Home? I'm guessing yes. I really like my roadside Mainland 1024 and don't plan to leave it, but would be nice to have that option.

    If any of my friends wonders where I'm at they just IM me. I have several close friends who aren't even on my Friends list. Works for us. We all do SL in our own ways.

    Yep. A Ryzen 5 5600H should work fine for SL, one of my laptops has one. People can become a bit too gamer mindset-ish at times... If I disable the GPU on the laptop and just try with the integrated Radeon Graphics SL is a pretty sad chapter, though.
  9. HeathcliffMontague
    FWIW I run Ryzen plus Radeon (on a Victus) these days without any issues. Have had one GPU driver issue, fixed it, and no probs since. What Natales said.
  10. HeathcliffMontague
    Yep. Maintaining a decent draw distance if you're the "traveling kind" might actually be a good idea
  11. HeathcliffMontague
    Thanks Amelia. Tried that, and it works better

    Sticking to Alchemy for now. LL viewer has now jumped up with leaps and bounds. Might get back to FS once the dust has really settled. FS is more user friendly after all. And the LL team plus FS the team... Sounds like a win/win for all deal to me.

    My Speed Maniac CHALLENGER XLL (RCX MOD) can easily cross water region after water region at 300 - 400 kp/h. Wouldn't recommend that speed unless you really have clocked a serious amout of hours, though.

    Hei, nabo. I find the Scandinaian languages as something you just have get used to. You just have to adjust a bit and train your ear, and you'll be fine 99 percent of the time. We have a gazillion dialects, which might be why we do better in the UK than some Americans
  15. HeathcliffMontague
    And somehow I understand your first paragraph perfectly. As written. Spoken might be another issue
  16. HeathcliffMontague
    Sort of the blame lies on my forefathers who used to row down there. Blame the rest on the French, as usual
  17. HeathcliffMontague
    Or third or fourth, whatever. Please keep it civil. Certainly a second one for me, as I keep discovering new terms all the time. Scandi here. I understand German very well, can sort of survive in France. As much as I love Spain, you lot speak freaking fast Vietnamese I tried and failed at, as a Northern European. Mods, this is at least tangentially related to SL, as we have a global crowd in this virtual world of ours
  18. HeathcliffMontague
    But that is a good thing, isn't it? Us actual adults can't be held responsible for teenage boys' reactions to poor Lara Croft.
  19. HeathcliffMontague
    No, there not might be. There is. Otherwise you certainly have a point.
  20. HeathcliffMontague
    Yep, it sure is. However you want to define that. There's also so much more.
  21. HeathcliffMontague
    This thread begs do differ. It got me to explore a bit again. It you're stuck in a p*rn rut, there is actually much more.
  22. HeathcliffMontague
    And that for you somehow compares to SL. We have such different perspectives here, many of us. Not meant in a bad way, takes all kinds, Paul
  23. HeathcliffMontague
    SL doesn't compete with anything for me. If SL goes down the drain I for sure won't gravitate to something like IMVU, or whatever kids use the days (get off my lawn). Nothing Zuch comes up will catch my interest either. Unless my job demands it. It actually just might (shudders)... I might use my Steam account a bit more for a bit, but will very quickly lose interest in any so-called virtual world. My GSD keeps me out in the woods and keeps me sane.
  24. HeathcliffMontague
    Yeah, I do just fine as well. But sometimes getting flashbacks from my military days trying to sleep pretty close to F16s taking off
  25. HeathcliffMontague
    It does for a lot of folks. Not only folks on old office Dells, as so many here like to say, but folks on medium setups with mid GPUs as well. Setups that actually, usually, handle AAA games at least OK. It also makes stuff look better, in many cases. It's a very mixed bag. But why so many refuse to acknowledge the former is beyond me.
