Not sure they could pay me to have a last name like "Hogwood or Philbert"

What some should understand you have some small team of designers running up to 100 different stores/brands they can try to weaponize the process to make it look like a certain brand is no longer worth having, these groups also have competing Body Stores. the only thing Maitreyan or Slink ever did in my option was be too friendly and open with others, as some people find kindness to be a weakness. Some people are willing to go to any means to try and be the top dog. what they don't understand its not the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog.

Linden Lab makes changes - any thoughts or feedback?

The only thing worse than yellow snow is green snow.

This may sound a little West Texan to you, but I like it. When I’m talking about.. when I’m talking about myself, and when she’s talking about myself, all of us are talking about me.

To say of what is that it is not, or of what is not that it is, is false, while to say of what is that it is, and of what is not that it is not, is true.

You know it’s a bad day when you jump out of bed and miss the floor!

Where are you seeing these things at? Every place I find myself at seems to have rules 5x tougher then the lab's while being enforced. this includes adult clubs and many deep doughty places. I rarely see any avatar's that remotely look like children while finding most are over developed (giant watermelon sized boobs & butts). if anything all i see are 9foot tall women that are over sexualized while running around with little T-Rex arms. to answer your question they cannot clean up what you think is going on, you or I can report what we see that we think violates the rules and that's mostly it.

Those Savages!

It was former Lindens who created Cloud Party, that was years ahead of Sansar/High Fidelity in terms of many things but it got bought up, shutdown without a care in the world for it's userbase(residents) so with SL its like that old faithful car you need to get to work in, it sometimes stalls out, sputters about, you just gotta keep turning the key a bit, baby it a little, while patting on the dash saying 'come old friend you can do it, you can make it!'

Transfer fee is only $300 the thing is a person would not even break even for years before they would save any money. 4 or 5 years in SL might as well be a decade or more in terms of changes. whoever owns the land already has gotten years of discounts already. I think diamond made a good point too its mostly just fishing, but they do get bites. I would not pay more then $1500 as that was the advice several well known big land barons recommended to me in groups and IM's (was impressed how professional and honest about they were). I guess I'm not missing anything about grandfathers now. they come up sometimes at fair prices while most times they get passed around by scalpers.

Just play SL on the SteamDeck you can load up most viewers while running Windows or Lenox.

@Lucia Nightfire I guess I stand corrected mostly

Where does linden provide those statistic's? or what large creator group has this posted? are you seeing this from your shopping experience or is she blacklisted from a secret trade union? When is "now" was that today? six months ago or 2010?

The "Chip Midnight Body" it was the most advanced body at the time (still looks great today), but never got any fashion traction. it predated Wowmeh, Maitreya, Slink. He was way ahead of the curve like RedPoly was but got lost in history .

Most Popular: Maitreya & Slink are the better supported bodies while also good for those who want normal/realistic body proportions. Slink(Siddean Munro) has the best Customer Service & Support. Newest Bodies : Cinnamon and Chai. they not getting much traction even when both are the best bodies yet! but due to market over saturation of bodies/ rival fashion gangs excluding them, they might die a slow death like the old Chip Midnight Body did years ago when it was the most advanced body around but all creators ignored it. I would not recommend Meshbody. unless, I was mad at you, didn't like you. then I would gift one to you Kalhene, inthium, reborn. Belleza I do not own but tried the Demo's having mixed feelings while seeing limited fashion support. I never got into the whole 'my boobs are bigger then my legs' thing.

That just depends on if you believe in western stereotypes that every black child is starving in Africa and needs Caucasian American moral policeman to come save them. the narrative is always being pushed daily so you can be forgiven if that was your impression. There is trouble in Africa just like anyplace else, but just know if you do the resource you will find those countries that are destabilized mostly in the north like Libya, Sudan or Somalia is the direct result of western nations interfering and regime changing in those reasons. the return of slavery in Africa is the direct result of actions by America but the victims of those situations do not get a voice by Meta on it's social media side so how can Meta offer anything as a metaverse escape when it's policies regulate them to an almost unhuman status as leaked internal documents show. The reality is most of Africa is modernizing fast with technology and infostructure and these are nations Meta wants to prey on but never will be given the chance. Africans have a very rich oral history, unlike Europeans who wanted to write everything down the culture in most ethnics groups in those areas believes in a living history handed down from elder to child orally, one of the reasons many are unaware of a rich cultural history it's often private or reserved for the local community, kind of like how the Aztec's documented everything with fabric stings and colored textiles. yes foreign to use and that's the main example of what that can mean. The reason Timbuktu was even rediscovered the lead searchers went to villages of decedents were they were able to build a very accurate map and history by listening to many tribal elders. all the history was oral. not written. So it's easier to see Meta(facebook) Horizons may never make inroads in any of those nations for cultural reasons. they know us better then we would know them it seems. Meta needs to maybe start saying Metaverse of the Western World or some other poor marketing slogans. I spent 3 months in Africa last year helping distribute laptops and like most of the world outside america/europe its a really different experience then we are told, It was a very humble experience interacting with people so human, so honest and sincere. to me Exposing those people to Meta would be inhuman of me that's why we filtered out all social media(firewalled) and setup innerwebs for community in community interactions. I see a very bright future for Africans in my experience the village people do not worry as much as some might think and even have things to teach us.

I think this whole thing is specifically a Western European/North American thing were a western company thinks it understands the whole world and knows what's best for it (entitled to believe that). Europe/North America is just 10% of the worlds population so Meta needs a reality check when it comes to the headlines. reality they are just another western business that still divides its customers up as a caste class in its own internal documents as 1st World, 2nd World & 3rd World peoples instead of just the human race or specific region of the world. Looking forward to what the Arabs, Africans, Indians, Hispanics, Central Asians & other Majority Populations come up with but really they might not waste the resource's. afterall whole wants a future were you own nothing and your happy because they tell your happy while your body is locked in a pod and mind hooked up to some Metaverse based on an aging 1980's Caucasian western males perspective and sexual gratification impulses. seems like more an episode of black mirror to me, every NPC in america/europe wants to join. That's my other 2cents( not debatable with me) about another western Elites' wetdream of they know what's best for us "little people" and the 90% majority Meta refers to as the 3rd world. Have a good day!

People are asking inworld between $2000 to $3500 real dollars for a grandfather full region that only saves the buyer $600 a year. that would take anywhere between 4 to 6 years to break even on the upfront buyers cost. then only and only then would they begin to benefit from the discount. So what am I missing in the details that would make such a transaction seem reasonable? instead of just buying a fresh new region from linden lab? it's possible a very important benefit I would be missing or unaware of?

SL grew into what it became from a dream of a shared virtual world, with Meta it is a money grab upfront while a tool to control by a powerful corporate entity that only cares about itself above all others. The future of any shared fully immersive virtual metaverse will not come from a business plan. but, will grow like a young flower rising up out of the earth by a strong global community with a non profit roadmap. a multipolarity world of societies bound together on a decentralized platform while empowering those inside to be anything or anyone they want to be while providing new tools for education, understanding and diversity in thought and practice without fear of government censorship and indirect control using corporate partnerships to conceal human rights violations. We of the world cannot allow a small narrow perception of the future to bound us to a certain future, snowcrash & related genre was a good idea for its time but was limited in scope and in inclusivity, It's imperative that the ideas, dreams & perceptions from the peoples of Asia, Africa & Latin America also count, eastern and other non western ideas of a global metaverse should not only count but they are the majority of the world. I believe also this current plan of a metaverse is rooted in long deep sexiest ideology masked behind social equality will practicing bigotry and modern imperialism and in itself uninclusive, destructive and the completely wrong direction. I will not go into further detail or debate anyone, this was my own thoughts about Meta right or wrong. Have a good day!

AMD Fangirl here your suggestion triggered me in a very shameful way on a TDS level OpenGL® Optimizations Up to 79% increase in performance in Minecraft™ @ 4k Fabulous settings, using Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 22.7.1 on the Radeon™️ RX 6950XT, versus the previous software driver version 22.6.1 RS-491 Up to 75% increase in performance in Minecraft™ @ 4k Fabulous settings, using Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 22.7.1 on the Radeon™️ RX 6400, versus the previous software driver version 22.6.1 RS-495 It's not just the AMD Radeon GPUs that are witnessing a good boost in OpenGL performance but so are the Ryzen APUs that utilize RDNA 2 graphics architecture. As spotted by Videocardz, Twitterati Cary Golomb, ran a Ryzen 7 6800U at 10W with the new 22.7.1 Software Drivers and scored a 12% performance uplift. The older drivers delivered a max FPS of 31.9 while the newer drivers uplifted the performance to 35.7 FPS, scoring a perfect 900 points in Unigine Heaven 4.0. These are just a few examples of the OpenGL performance boost coming from the new drivers and if you happen to have noticed some big improvements while running an OpenGL app or game. AMD is also proud to announce that Radeon Super Resolution (RSR) now supports Radeon RX 5000 and RX 6000 graphics cards found inside AMD Ryzen notebooks with hybrid graphics. In addition, Radeon Super Resolution is now compatible with the borderless fullscreen option in games. You can now configure this in AMD's Adrenaline software. Your Welcome! Sincerly Nevaeh

Mexico like many countries are constantly being destabilized by the US Government who follow policies set in the 1950's to keep most of the world destabilized including Latin America to ensure US Global Hegemony regardless of what political party is in power. the more Americans move to Mexico in the next few years your going to see double or triple the cost of living there combined with rising inflation and a much weaker dollar that you might get from retirement funding. Your better choice would be someplace in rural isolated America even Alaska or cut the ambilocal cord completely and move to South America. one of the small rural nations that is not on the government list to "bring democracy" AKA does not have physical resources some american government clowns business friends want. Your ahead of the curve Luna whatever you do getting out will be the best choice you could make. many places in SA have weather and climate patterns very close to the US Midwest and lots of English speakers as well. In SA you can still play SL as many countries have better Internet service then in the US. Good Luck and God Bless.
