    Three Biggest Peeves Of Mine: Old Age, Sickness & Death. They are why I am working with the Great Old Ones to abolish time and overthrow the whole schytshow that this universe has become. When the stars align, we will fix everything and everyone will be eternally youthful and immortal. Except the ones Cthulhu decides to eat. Protip: Avoid the New England coastline if you don't wan't to be eaten first.

    Exactly. If cut loose, she can outrun a car if it's following the speed limit on our street. and her nose seems to be pointed and hard as steel when she hits you in the leg with it, too. >.< She'll crash right into you, knock you down, and keep going without even breaking stride.

    In my experience, some owners seem to make it feel that way. But I know your doggy friends are just being lazy. Related Peeve: I can't watch three giant pitbulls at once, when they're all bent on different forms of trying to get away with stuff. One will be trying to eat crap off the ground while one wants to go after a cat that hasn't been there for hours, and one just wants to pretend it's a bullet train and see how fast it can go. But I love them so it doesn't matter.

    I'll be watching this thread with great interest, thank you guys for posting all of this. Especially the bit about the half-tread bike thingy, that's super cool. Most of my sport driving is on my little scooter I made, but I do like to collect nice vehicles of all kinds, and it's good to have more to go on than my own searching and trying out of things. Thank you to the OP for making this thread also.

    Silly, the KiB is a unit for measuring kibble. You're getting all worked up over a simple misunderstanding. You know we don't do that sort of thing here. Now tell me where they got the 64 KiB from, because I'm tired of buying boxes that are only like 1 to 5 KiB. It gets expensive that way. Pseudo Peeve, just to maintain the proper form: People who go off over simple misunderstandings like thinking units for measuring kibble have anything to do with computer motors and how they work.

    THIS IS HOW WE PARTY~! Also Belinda is right. I don't like NCI for personal reasons, but I'm still glad they exist. Places like NCI and Helping Haven and various other helper spots, regardless of how much or how little help one might get from staff or various programs they might have there, do at least give people somewhere they can go and always find people. And usually, even if many of them don't always feel like actually being helpful, many of them do. There are people who just park in helper areas to socialize, and if they see someone obviously needs help, they will fall on them like rain on dying crops and change everything. The ones who help and care more than make up for the ones who are unpleasant. An important thing to remember though is that you can't be too shy as a new person and expect it all to just somehow open up to you. Sometimes you have to ask for help, even if you don't quite know how to ask because it's all so new and alien. Be bold, even if you fall off a cliff you can still survive it inworld, so you can survive talking to people too. XD

    Not too shabby. XD My viewer settings don't do it justice.

    If I got something unsolicited that was that derned spammy and un-SL, I'd just send them my standard response to anything spammy and annoying. So far it's worked for everything, anyway. You're free to use it, as well. I'm sure Paul Reubens doesn't mind.

    You are so very welcome. And thank you for the LM to the tanks~! I'm used to having to rezz them! ^-^ ❤️

    Not really art just quite yet, but someday soon it will be. Digging my new dress, and having fun standing on my merit. Or whatever you call that thing that the cables will roll up on... Spool thingy? No idea. XD Oh, don't get me wrong. Your stuff is distinctly your stuff. It's just that I don't often see someone work with these particular effects outside my home sim, and there it's just a natural matter of course, because it's always dark and anyone taking a pick tends to put a light on themselves. I have to turn full daylight on just to build. Yours is intentional, and the effect of the subject seeming to emerge from the shadows makes a really compelling image the way you compose your shots. It's an effective theme and presentation, and the inherent subtext is something radiant emerging from the darkness of obscurity and taking form. Blah blah, art nerding, blah blah blah, you know what I'm saying. TL;DR: Hey, that's some good art you got there~!

    Ready for another shift. One of these days I'll have the Arkham build looking as awesome as I do.

    If they had a 64-bit, current, Linux version of the official viewer I would definitely own it, just to have it. Simply installing it could (possibly) fix the one thing I can never get to work on Firestorm... voice. We have occasional poetry and short fiction readings live on voice (just because the parcel audio route for live audio isn't the most ideal for it), and it would be nice to be able to do more than simply attend to provide moral support and enjoy seeing so many sociopathic loners gathered sociably in one place. It would be nice to hear the reading, too.

    I logged in and someone had sent me money. No message, no notecard, no sale history, just money out of nowhere. I guess they figured I could use a new dress or something. So I got an antique dress. XD I am so grateful. I was saving everything for cat food. And I have enough left over for cat food! \o/ Minor Peeve (I know, I know, wrong thread): I had to go FIVE pages deep to find the positive things thread, while people are busy being transphobic and venomous and posting how much they hate this and that all over everywhere else. For SHAME~! This thread is supposed to stay on page 1! We're sposed to be setting a good example! And why are there so few threads like this? >.<

    Minor Peeve. Forum Sockpuppets. *ticks Ignore* Ahh, all better. Major Peeve: Having to get up for coffee. I need a bigger cup! And more donuts. I really like donuts with my coffee. Oh and SUPER MEGA PEEVE: People who hate whatever they can't understand, like autism, or gender dysphoria, or pretty much anything they can't take for granted from one moment to another. There, I'm done with the whole subject. Feels good to get that last little bit of icky poop out. In SL.
  16. PheebyKatz
    LOL, I feel silly for just now realizing all your stuff is done in a Chiaroscuro style. It was actually one of my favorite styles/periods in painting when I took art history. Kicking myself. XD

    I've used Firestorm for over 6 years and have never gotten voice to work at all. I've done absolutely everything, installed 32-bit libraries, fiddled around in my audio settings under the hood, all of it, nothing ever works. It's just the only viewer I use, so I do without voice.
  18. PheebyKatz
    Peeve: When someone I had to put on Ignore is stalking my profile. It's freaking creepy. *shudder* I hope they find whatever they're looking for and leave me alone. Tired of them being up my butt behind my back.

    Someone woke me up to make them biscuits, so I got myself a new dress. I'm sure I can make a few cool looks with it, once I bop out some textures. This is in front of my little house I made.

    Thank you for posting something beautiful, this thread needed it really bad just then.
  22. PheebyKatz
    I'll send you one when I log in, I'm going to sleep, and laughing at the "blatant porn" I posted in the selfy thread, lol EDIT: Sent you a nice wand instead. It looks nicer and is less "Rambo". Discreet and classy. It also shoots nukes. ^-^ ❤️

    In my town we have Lucky Dogs. The joke is youre lucky if you can survive eating one. Nobody wears the hat or apron, and you can take a cart out by leaving your ID at the office as collateral. Pretty much anyone can push the cart, but the ones who make a real living know how to actually sell the dogs. When I was homeless, they gave me cups of chili and stuff that wasnt counted when they brought the carts back. Usually nice people. And yeah, the pic up there is totally a standard hot dog guy from any town that isn't as lax as mine. All they do is the gloves. Or a plasic bag if they run out of gloves. Or just the tongs if they're out of bags. If they drop the tongs, I guess you just have to look the other way while they make your hot dog. You can usually either buy a bag of pot from them or sell them one, also.

    A silent harbor would be just a little too eerie, so we have ocean sounds on the water on my home sim. The trolley makes noise, machinery of any sort usually makes some sounds, but the lack of sound everywhere else just makes it all a little weird for me sometimes, so I just keep my earbuds out or listen to the on-theme stream on low to blend it all together. Sometimes I just turn it all off, and go silent mode, or listen to Youtube music instead, depends on my mood. My whole first year in SL was silent, because I was using a thumb drive Linux of my own creation on a netbook that wasn't even close to being considered acceptable for SL, and sound just never worked. It got me used to being okay with a silent SL. I usually don't even notice I'm not hearing anything unless someone mentions the song on the stream, or I see all the gesture spam in local. Only exception is if I'm at a party. I feel it would be rude not to listen to the DJ's music, especially if I'm going to stand there dancing and all. LOL, I even made my machinegun in a sound-suppressed version, so I can slay zombies more quietly. The neighbors appreciate it, I can tell. So yeah, sound, I can usually take it or leave it. I don't even know how to get voice working, lol. LL doesn't even make a viewer for 64-bit Linux.

    Actually, if it's a mesh floor in a building, even if the avatar can stand on it, that might be the whole issue. A lot of larger uploaded mesh things, particularly larger flat planes, actually DO sort of have holes in them, of a sort. Even if you upload them with proper physics, physics model, etc. It might not be the raycast that's the problem at all. Hmm. Now I'm actually interested in this. If you find the answer, please share it.
