    I have a music object. Lets say... Violin, Piano, Cello, but they are object that emmit sounds. You need to zoom in sometimes to hear the music. They are reaaaaallly great. 

    What I need now you know what I have and my problem. I need something like an amplifier. I need to amplifie the sound of this object. I dont want to people have to zoom in to hear the sound OR streaming it. I need to amplifi the sound of this object. 

    Someone know how? I am looking for some amplifiers on MP but they are for specific product. I have bought some but they didnt work. I need help guys! If someone can make something to help this I can pay, or if someone knows something where to buy I will. I just need to amplify this :/

    If you are only concerned about your own in-world experience, you can increase the value of the AudioLevelRolloff Debug Setting in your viewer.  See http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Debug_Settings .  People who play combat games in SL dial up that AudioLevelRolloff debug setting so they can hear weapon fire from a long way away.  

    If you are trying to make it so other people can hear, Rolig Loon's answer (above) is your answer.

    Me, I just sit back and laugh as the world burns, knowing that the Aristotlean progression of governments is inevitable, and that in a generation or two the decrepit democracies of the West will collapse into new monarchies (albeit with a shint new name, since "king" is passe).

    Are you speaking of Plato's Republic?  I rather liked that.  I don't see the work as prophecy, but yeah, its likely predictive of what we are going through.

    The sun and the moon are flat images on the sky dome.

    The only planet textures that I included in the library were one of Jupiter and "Blue Marble".  But any that you make yourself should work.

    There is no SKY_PLANET_TEXTURE in the API.  There are: SKY_CLOUD_TEXTURE, SKY_MOON_TEXTURE, SKY_SUN_TEXTURE, WATER_NORMAL_TEXTURE

    In these last two days, I had encounters with Trump supporters who filled their profiles with hateful messages. Specifically, profile pictures showing gun violence, groups promoting lies that were discredit by US and UK intelligence, and groups promoting violence toward others. All were reported to LL.

    As a result of these encounter and awareness of LL's permissible attitude toward the introduction of politics of hate in SL, I am no longer a premium member. I refuse to financially support an organization that allows the spewing of hate as evidenced by my encounters with MAGATS.

    I am deeply disappointed at LL's lack of action in the insertion of politics into SL, and even more disappointed with the LL's inaction toward the infusion of politics of hate in SL.  I am wondering of anyone else has had similar experiences and how people have handled/reacted/felt in these situations.

    I don't understand people who come into a thread just to say they don't like the conversation in the thread. Ummm... so... don't read it? Is my usual thought.

    I have a couple of guilty-pleasure tv shows, and I casually follow them on Facebook. It never ceases to amaze me how many people come into the comments just to say, "I don't like the show. I don't watch it." Again, I think, Why are you posting here, then?

    I think it is great how this thread has woven in and out. It is like group monkey mind (a meditation term). If it gets boring (and it did in places) I stop reading (which I did in places). Concept.

    I think that is an excellent suggestion.  If you see a profile inworld that you don't like, desist from reading it.  If you think the profile violates the TOS, AR it.  

    The least productive thing to do would be to enter the forums and post defamatory terms like the one in red above.  It is unlikely that SL will ban a person just because they are politically in favor of an elected official.

    What don't you understand, Desiree? We aren't, so far as I can see, engaged in interpersonal disputes here.

    We are having a discussion about gender and identity, and how these are addressed.

     

    The thread is about an inworld event that the OP doesn't like, and the procedure is to file an AR.  All the rest is thread drift.

    I don't understand why we are having this conversation in the first place.  The Community Participation Guidelines are clear:

    Correct.  In general, if the Right says it, the default is to call it hate speech, and the speaker is a racist misogynistic homophobic bigot, and anyone who doesn't like what was said is to take it to be a violent attack.  Simple being in the same zip code with such a person is a violent affront on dignity.  Anything said by someone on the Left is by default tolerant and enlightened, and regardless of what they say or do, it's never to be considered violent, or at least it is to be considered justifiable.  Anyone who says anything contrary to them should be shouted down and silenced, in the name of free speech. 

    This convenient generalization relieves us of the burden of actively listening and reasoning through what is said, so we can go back to sipping our coffee/tea (free trade, of course) concoction of the day while looking at the latest cat videos on "smart" phones made by poor (by Western standards anyway) 3rd world folks at the behest of the progressive people at Apple and posted on the platform of the tolerant folks at Facebook, then go and use Google, brought to us by people who actively work to persuade people to vote for the party of their (Google executives, that is) choice, and then hop in our Volkswagen and drive 4 blocks home, complaining about climate change the whole way.

     

    I'm satisfied to let LL's AR team do what they do.  There are two sides to every story.  I only hear one side, but the one side I hear sounds like hyperbole.  If it were  ban'able "hateful" behavior to be a member of any group that ever told a lie, we would have to abolish all leading political parties, and ban everyone who ever joined or gave a donation to one.

    I am the first to admit that I can't stay completely up to date on luxury belief systems; doubtless I'll err in some detail.  My understanding is that the new definition of "hate speech" is anything that the political right says.  Likewise, the new definition of "violence" includes "hate speech."  This too will pass.  Luxury belief systems must evolve when the masses adopt them.  If the term "luxury belief" isn't familiar, use your search engine for keywords such as: "luxury beliefs"

    Many years ago I had this same issue and after trying the card three or four times, a Linden IM'd me out of nowhere and said "Psst! Your card is expired!" 

    I remember when the Lindens were real people.  They still are, if you quit your day job and go to their bankers hours meetings, but it's not the same. 

    I take that back.  This was pretty good:

    Granted, you are sleepy now, and will remain sleepy for the rest of the year.

    I wish I didn't need sleep at all.

    Granted, you don't need sleep at all, but you'll miss the dreams.

    I slept four hours and woke up without lights or alarm.  I wish I could go back to sleep.

    I miss the days when clothing designers were fabric-orientated artists rather than primarily mesh builders.

    Agreed.  Particularly today, when it seems everyone is getting the same *.dae file meshes from the same sources.  The mesh may show them as "creator," but all they did was upload a *.dae file they bought.  

    Texturing skills really set off a product.  Today, though, if you want to do a really good job you have to have the skills to paint on the mesh in 3D.  Its getting harder and harder to be competitive with just photoshop skills.

    Has anyone tried it yet? Can anyone report on what it's like? I was going to get one tomorrow but would appreciate some feedback. 

    My understanding is that if it's not beef, it tastes like chicken.  Note that I'm not advertising nor promoting beef or chicken!
