as I remember some accounts created about 2010 got a bit scrambled in terms of web access to services. Some could access adult regions while not able to access adult search the fix was to file a ticket

prim to .dae convertors are quite useful as a learning tool for people who know how to build with prims and want to learn Blender etc can export a prim build, import it into Blender etc using it as a reference. Because we built it then we know what it is we want to see in Blender etc. We can use this knowledge/understanding of our own build to start working out which buttons to press to mod/reduce/.torture it

is the kinda diagram that designers and developers of shared online 3D public spaces draw as well. All the combinatorics involved can do their heads in also. And then the staff responsible for community development get involved and everybody's head gets done it

a technical issue which bleeds into social issues is sharding the view when selectively blocking ourselves from the view of others when in a public space. Example: 3 people who can see each other, who have blocked Joe. A 4th person who is blocked by 1 of the 3 but not the other 2 and who is not blocked by Joe so Joe can see Four. Four can see Joe, Two and Three. Two and Three can see One, Three and Four. One can see Two and Three ae social issue is when we are in a public space when this happens. On our own parcel then we have parcel controls to deal with the private view which is ok as is our land unlike the public space or when on another person's land on being on another person's land, say in a club if we were to block the owner then is it right that the parcel owner can no longer see us ? If this is not right then I suppose that would mean we would be auto-ejected from their parcel, auto self-banning in a sense

ah! ok you want a scripted rezzer which will rez a follower object with the posted script in it. And you want the rezzer script to pass a uuid key to the follower so it knows which avatar to follow if so then google search on keyword: "LSL REZZER". Is lots of different complete rezzer scripts available including the kind you want on_rez(integer

@Phorumities big is probably not the word either. For example the USA has a big multi-tiered government by world standards and yet the USA is hardly socialist by world standards in NZ we have small government. A very flat small government structure by world standards and yet we are more socialist than the USA is basically the issue isn't the size of government that Adam Smith talks about. He talks about the role of government in the planning of society. And the pitfalls when societal planning is centralised by governments of any size

google search on keyword "virtualverse one" altho if do go over there and just rant then the SL residents on there can be pretty censoring on ranters, as the forum is lightly moderated. The people on that forum expect arguments to be soundly reasoned or you will get crickets from them

without a way for the script to auto-detect avatars then we have to tell the script who to follow. A way to do this is to chat/type the name of the person on the listening channel and use llName2Key to validate: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlName2Key the basics of a chat type follower is something like: integer CHANNEL = 7; // or whichever. Type /7 Resident Linden for example key follow_agent = NULL_KEY; state_entry { llListen(CHANNEL, "", llGetOwner(), ""); } listen( integer channel, string name, key id, string message) { if (message == "stop") { if (follow_agent != NULL_KEY) { ... stop follow ... } } else { follow_agent = llName2Key(message); if (follow_agent != NULL_KEY) { ... start follow ... } } } timer() { if (llAgentSize(follow_agent) == ZERO_VECTOR) // agent no longer on region { ... stop follow ... } }

@Love Zhaoying true :)

No. The 50L stipend is targeted at the elderly of SL. is not universal. Is like a pension

would you feel differently about being a egg if you were a cute sexy egg ? nobody answer this ok

derailing it a bit further, yet bringing it back to SL at the end UBI - universal basic income - in our case, New Zealand, would be an extension of Universal Superannuation. Universal Superannuation is paid out of general taxation to every person 65 years and older - regardless of their income to both rich and poor equally the principle premise of universal distribution being that any redistribution of taxes back to the population should not be targeted - redistributed equally and not severally. Universal basic education, universal basic healthcare, universal basic income potentially, etc the loudest objection to UBI is that people will get lazy. Not want to work. Is true this for some who will do absolutely nothing all day in the way of how we traditionally understand work. The traditional view being that work is primarily divided into 2 categories - paid work and unpaid work. For some traditionalists the view being that paid work is a real job and unpaid work is not a real job. From this pov how much we get paid by someone else (thru wages or sales) is the defining measure of whats real and whats not real. The payment defines - not the activity/content of the work being performed other traditionalists object on the grounds that substantial numbers of lazy people will hamper economic growth - the pool of people willing to work for them on wages or contract will jeopardise their own business ventures. Is not true this in all business cases is not true either - the lazy part - for substantial numbers of older people receiving universal superannuation. Lots of people in New Zealand continue to work into their 70s, 80s and beyond, while they are physically and mentally capable of doing so, in both paid and unpaid work UBI for all people - is the basis on which the gig economy could flourish. When people do not have to work in the traditional manner then they will work on what interests and motivates them. The cost of labour to business in the gig economy is less than in the traditional labour/wage/salary regulated economy. And the flexibility of labour in the gig economy is strengthened by UBI. Is why we are now seeing owners of gig economy companies not dismissing the idea of universal basic income. These owners are sometimes referred to as left-libertarian for those who rely in whole or part on SL and other online outlets to sell their creative work to sustain themselves, UBI if introduced would I think spur them on to even more fully realise their creative potential, adding immeasurably to the commonweal of knowledge and in some beneficial ways to the pursuit of happiness

yes Pwaga did cracked me up when Pwaga said Ethan could be a calendar. I am still laughing about it. Is funny :) i am so going to use that myself from now on

or even

@Pwaga ypu absolutely right. Forums are searchable and thats what people do, search before asking as most times the question has been asked before and yes lol. Next time somebody else ever again on here says o.m.g ! lazarus resurrection post !!! I am going to chat back to them: ! Pwaga Calendar ! and then I am going to crack up laughing

if you mean a helper prim to move the avatar when sitting and be able to get avatar pos and rotation as a copypasta llSitTarget to paste into a runtime sit script. A example of a sit helper goes something like: // simple sit target animation pose helper // make a skinny helper prim: 0.1 x 0.1 x 2.0 // link it to your seat // put this script and the sit animation into the root prim of your seat // sit on the seat // Edit the seat (check Edit Linked) // Edit-select the skinny helper prim and move/rotate it // Your avatar will move/follow the skinny helper // Press the Print button om the dialog menu // it will print/say in chat the position and rotation of your avatar // as a llSitTarget() statement // Copypasta the statement into your runtime seat sit script // Can copypasta the statement into state_entry of this script also as a default for the helper list sit_target; string sit_anim; integer listen_hnd; default { state_entry() { //llSitTarget(<0.0, 0.0, 0.4>, ZERO_ROTATION); llSitTarget(<0.774521, -0.069794, 0.755936>,<0.000000, 0.000000, 0.000000, 1.000000>); } changed(integer change) { if (change & CHANGED_LINK) { if (llAvatarOnSitTarget() != NULL_KEY) // avatar got on llRequestPermissions(llAvatarOnSitTarget(), PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION); else // avatar got off { llSetTimerEvent(0.0); llListenRemove(listen_hnd); if (sit_anim != "") llStopAnimation(sit_anim); } } } run_time_permissions(integer perms) { if (perms & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION) { listen_hnd = llListen(-8102, "", llAvatarOnSitTarget(), "Print"); sit_anim = llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_ANIMATION, 0); if (sit_anim != "") llStartAnimation(sit_anim); llSetTimerEvent(1.0); llDialog(llAvatarOnSitTarget(), "Print - sit target to chat", ["Print"], -8102); } } listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string text) { llRegionSayTo(id, 0, "llSitTarget(" + llDumpList2String(sit_target, ",") + ");"); llDialog(id, "Print - sit target to chat", ["Print"], -8102); } timer() { sit_target = llGetLinkPrimitiveParams(llGetNumberOfPrims()-1, [PRIM_POS_LOCAL, PRIM_ROT_LOCAL]); llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast(llGetNumberOfPrims(), [PRIM_POS_LOCAL, llList2Vector(sit_target, 0), PRIM_ROT_LOCAL, llList2Rot(sit_target, 1)]); } }

on Tyche Shepard site here: http://gridsurvey.com/ is the history chart (name: Main Grid Regions) since October 2007 when the survey started if anyone was interested enough then could date map all the events mentioned against the history chart

adding to people withdrawing from mainland parcel market activity *circa 2008 as I remember* was the ban on cutting for sale parcels to less than 512m, and the tightening of the rules around "advertising" the 16m... < 512m parcel "advertising market" was pretty active up until the ban came in

@Callum Merriman thinking about it more now that you said this the UUID was assigned to a person. That person made a thing. That person gave the thing to another person. The creator person leaves SL and LL redact all their info. The thing still needs a creator UUID. Would be quite murky if that creator UUID was assigned to another UUID. Is also possible if the now redacted person's thing was no-mod and had a script in it that checked the creator UUID for the thing to function. The thing would break and the receiving person would have a broken content so yes from a practical pov then what you say would be correct

the example is interesting has been a a few conversations on this forum about what might constitute personal information as relates to SL with regard to the EU requirements. Lots of the chat about whether or not UUIDs are personal information. Seems that by this example that LL, I suppose knowing the real person's name associated with the UUID, views the UUID as personal information and redacts it

do it !

cool

173 to go i think we should also get reputation points for each time we click the Like button. Will be so much easier than trying to click on goosefeathers, specially when the goose is still flying round

yes. has been lots of parcel and sim edge detection auto-braking and auto-steering avoidance LSL scripts been done over the years by lots of different people and yes I am with you on a system-enabled parcel bounce method I dunno if you have seen how the bounce off can work. As it works already-ish on sim crossings. If rez and sit your bike on a G sim then set your Rating to General and try to cross into a M region. Both the avatar and the vehicle are bounced off and remain whole
