    Password Requirements

    in General Second Life Tech Discussion

    Posted · Edited by ThorinII

    I tend to make my passwords strong, and absolutely unrelated to anything in my Real Life. Even when I created my former account in March '08, my password was 12 characters strong, had 2 uppercase letters, a sign, and 3 numbers in it (and no, the number 1 was not among them :P). The password to my computer is even longer, and more complicated. However, I also change all my passwords every 3 - 6 months, depending on the vulnerability of the account. B|

    Would it be wrong to ask what's the idea behind the drones? Are they avatars?

    Yes, they are avatars, although they're wearing the CC Drone Suit, which is a very, very restrictive RLV item in spite of its looks. Once locked inside the suit, the wearer has absolutely no control anymore over its settings, and is totally at the mercy of her "Owner". And I mean totally: Not only the looks of the suit, but each and every ability of the wearer that can be restricted (or taken away) via RLV, can be restricted (or taken away) via this suit's control menu -and the "Owner" doesn't even have to be on the same sim as the wearer to access her suit menu.
    The suit even auto-replaces the name of its wearer in Open Chat to a "drone name", for example "Drone C-3948" (in case of @eighthdwarf Checchinato ), taking even the identity of the wearer away.

    Poor Utilization of Newer GPU's

    But do you play in 4k, ultra graphics and everything turned to max minus the shadow quality?

    I think you 're whining on a very high level. Such settings are absolutely exaggerated.

    First: I don't "play" SL: I "enter" it, like a virtual hobby room. Second: I don't have a 4k monitor (yet), my HD monitor with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 is absolutely enough for SL. Third, my card runs mostly on Mid-high, 128m draw distance (which is more than enough), including shadows (set on optimized) and all.

    @Belle Bouvier: Which game are you referring to in your OP? Linden Realms? Greedy? Or what? If you're referring to SL, that is not a game per se.

    Gosh I have a GeForce 960 with 2 GB of RAM, and a cheap AMD 6100+ and 16GB RAM 1330GHz, and yet I get up to 50-60 fps in most places. So the bottleneck at your computer must be somewhere else.
