yes. GTX660 graphics card shadows on only sometimes. Is shadows and stacked alphas that can hurt my FPS. ALM vs non-ALM difference is negligible

like you say can be quite a bit of work this. Is possible to have a prim object LSL-scripted to act as both a web browser and a web server. Probably Void Singer's Teacup is one of the better places to start down this road http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/User:Void_Singer/Teacup how well it might go toward meeting your objective I dunno. Using Teacup as a starting codebase would tho I think save a lot of dev time

@Blush Phorumities has said that they have and do increase their mainland parcel holdings, and that they have an aversion to land flippers Callum has pointed out that if the intent is to be able to move to another area of the mainland easily then the ticket system is available for this edit add for completeness: if the intent is not to have to pay again for the parcel capital value when moving to another area of mainland using the ticket system, then a flat transfer fee can be advocated for

pretty much yes what Phorumities is advocating is a ages old story in SL, dressed up as being a benefit to LL. A person wanting to extend their home parcel holdings and not wanting to pay the adjoining parcel owner's asking price

Capital value of mainland parcels for residents is real. The capital value can be realised in real money

you mention elsewhere that you don't see what you are advocating (L$1 per parcel regardless of location and size) as political. The role of "land flippers" (capital fluidity agents) is vital to sustaining capital values in a capital value market. To advocate for a market that is structured to reduce the market impact of capital fluidity agents is political

then best to advocate for a new Linden Homes-style sandbox continent with parcels devoid of content

assuming the twin objectives - maintain a semblance of capital value in the parcel market - use entrant pricing to grow the tier-paying base a way to meet both objectives is for the parcel owner to lower the per sqm open, from L$1 per sqm to some lesser amount for land that takes longer to sell for LL-owned parcels, can automate this using the Reverse Auction model. A parcel goes to auction at L$1 per sqm open. When it attracts no bids, the parcel is sent back to auction at L$0.8 open. L$0.6 open, L$0.4 open, etc

the Dept of Public Works (moles) is the mainland beautification programme. They have been beavering away on this for years now. What you are suggesting is perhaps more budget being allocated for this work. I would support that

@animats to do what you want with MOAP then yes the map manipulation needs to be done server side. Effectively replicating Google Maps using the SL world map tiles

yes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43gm3CJePn0 is a pretty powerful (brutal even) story being told here between 2 blue collar men. First time up it can be difficult (exhausting and draining) for some people to see this out to the end. Is best to tho, as if can't get past the white guy and stop short then the story is lost take the rap out of it and the power of the words remain.

i haven't done anything with MOAP for ages. But as I remember MOAP is a full-fledged web browser. Your web server to which the MOAP browser is connected, receives mouse/key inputs from the MOAP browser, the scrolling is done web server side. The main function of any LSL script in a MOAP browser is pretty for authentication purposes. Like who can/cannot operate the MOAP browser edit: in the case of a self-scrolling MOAP app centred on avatar position and rotation, then the MOAP prim LSL script just sends the avatars position/rotation to the web server

yes was just pointing out the absurdity of this argument coming from a self-avowed free market capitalist

i vote for this. The elimination of a free market, the obliteration of capital ownership, the destruction of capital land values, and a $1 public housing license for everybody who can pay the State rents

this ^^ is real estate properties sales 101 make it pretty for the intending buyer. This is what it can look like on this for sale property also, the mole-made objects on the property could (should imo) be set to Sell Objects with Parcel. The parcel buyer gets them Mod/Copy/No Transfer with the purchase

another for instance sententious is a poor substitute for intelligence

@Lindal Kidd i would like to have a parcel on a natural continent. With all of things you mention. And all the other stuff like seasonal rain, tidal seas, foliage that automagically grows, changes and shapes with the weather conditions. Buildings that weather decay when not maintained. Sky objects that require energy to remain aloft. etc be pretty cool I think

the term for the people you now mean by they, is monopoly capitalist

i used to think that ~ would be slower, because it just seemed like it when I was waiting. Then I stumble across the work of Pedro Oval. Where he disassembled the CIL bytecode produced by the Mono LSL compiler // ~x; 11 00 ldloc.s 0 66 not 26 pop // x != y; implemented as: !(x==y) 11 01 ldloc.s 1 // this part is x == y 11 00 ldloc.s 0 FE 01 ceq 16 ldc.i4.0 // this part is 'not' FE 01 ceq 26 pop is pretty interesting what Pedro has shown about all kinds of things in a get to know our compiler way. Lots more here http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/User:Pedro_Oval/Mono_code_memory_usage/CIL

the rock monsters have a maximum range, and kill us when they collide with our collision shape.. The avatar is standing so their body (collision shape) is just outside the range. The object the avatar is wearing, same as your/my/our clothes, are not part of the collision shape. So while it may appear the monster is colliding it isn't when you approached the avatar you entered the range of the monster and it got you. Next time you see this, approach the avatar from behind this said the other thing that could be happening the avatar is playing a stand animation that shows them some distance in front of where they are actually standing. If so then they are most likely funning with people. Making people believe that they are invulnerable to the rock monsters. To get a reaction

caplitalist old people who are uber wealthy don't become supporters of communism. They become philanthropists. They put their money into things which they think will do the most good to advance the human condition where I live is the Carnegie Free Library. Mr Carnegie ,about 100 years ago now, thought it would be good to provide books so people could further educate themselves and their children. As in the day books were expensive and beyond the means of low wage earners, the infirm and elderly Bill and Melinda Gates, George Soros, Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, Warren Buffet, etc, etc. Philanthropists

SEEN_LIST = ListItemDelete(SEEN_LIST, this_SEEN_name); if agents are not being removed from SEEN_LIST then it could be something not quite right with the function ListItemDelete() the function should go something like: list ListItemDelete(list source, string item) { integer i = llListFindList(source, [item]); if (i >= 0) return llDeleteSubList(source, i, i); else return source; }

@Garnet Psaltery fiction meaning that a country is a truth belief system. Example: "We are French. Our country is France." France will continue to exist as a country while the people in the territory hold this to be a truth french people can exist without a country called France example: Kurds don't have a country, because the people in the territory do not hold Kurdistan to be a truth

i just notice that in the last script snip I posted that I never handled the seen list when is no agents on region. The fix is list agents = llGetAgentList(AGENT_LIST_REGION, []); integer n = llGetListLength(agents); if (n == 0) { SEEN_LIST = []; return; }

maybe are reading to much into this all the Court decided was: a) LL could not compel Bragg into arbitration because badly written arbitration clause in ToS b) the Court did have jurisdiction to hear any case Bragg might bring before it because a) everything else Bragg alleged at the hearing had nothing to do with anything really as far as the Court was concerned. The Court decision was to uphold Bragg's basic constitutional right to air his allegations in a fair and impartial way
