Oops, no, not that I’m aware of. My bad.

The Quiet and The Far Away. Refuge and Expansion. Voice in Ahern/Morris/Dore/Bonifacio.

Passing through scenic Devil's Anus West Virginia. Twice.

I think the best solution would be to leave voice on in a couple of the safe hubs and take them off the list of places to route people to when their last location isn't available. That way who cares? That way anyone who goes there is going there on purpose and people who want to voice and mess around with the decor can without annoying anyone else.

I hate it. I loved listening to people carrying on in the safe hubs. Make Arapaima great again!

Here's one. Does it come from a web site promoting chemtrails, NWO conspiracies and climate change "skepticism"? If it does, it's not a scientific paper.

It's a start.

What studies? That idiotic article claiming masks are neither safe for effective? Which is contradicted by like every public health agency in the world. That dreck deserves no response but ridicule for even linking to it.

Neither the Healthline nor the Health.com article you linked to said anything about masks increasing the number of heart attacks. The Healthline article stated why heart attack deaths have increased, and it’s not because of masks. I don’t need to disprove your stupidity, you already did it.

Your garbage is dangerous. You should be banned from the forums.

Looks like more garbage.

I remember seeing an Australian YouTuber mention that their flu season has been extremely quiet this year. Did a quick check and found this: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6937a6.htm

I've been messing around with an M1 MacBook Pro some this evening (16GB model). It seems competitive in SL with a 2018 15" MacBook with an AMD Radeon Pro 560X, The screen scaling is different, so it's not quite apples to apples. I was getting decent performance with ALM on and 128M draw distance in both the Linden viewer and Firestorm (full screen). No shadows and minimum water reflections. In Chakryn forest they both do the mid-20s. Everwinter Nights ranged from 20-ish and down to the teens. Acceptable, but not great. Single digits at Moochie's Winter Wonderland, but that place is brutal on everything. Ultra is a no-go. Switching to Ultra in Chakryn Forest dragged the frame rate straight to single digit hell. The Linden viewer defaulted to HiDPI on, I'd turn that off. You don't really need it. The display is absolutely amazeballs. Do the kids still say that? Well it is. Apple makes the best displays. One major reason I went with the Pro over the Air is the Pro has fans. I'm not sure they've ever come on. I was skeptical when news started leaking about Apple moving to ARM. There are still some issues to iron out, but my first impressions of this thing are that it's great. I would buy this hands down over the 13" Intel MacBook.

I can’t think of a single graphics card that has DirectX drivers but not OpenGL drivers.

That's about the time Linden Lab fired a third of the staff.

I have never seen it on a PC. I enabled it on one to see what it does. It looks like the big change is it locks the CPU speed at 100% no matter what you're doing. Which seems extremely wasteful. If I used it for SL, I would only use it for SL and switch back to balanced as soon as I logged out.

Looks like a credible source.

Yes it works on WiFi. LL's recommendation against WiFi is as dated as all of their other recommendations. Since it's just started in the past week, my first inclination would be to think it has something to do with Uplift and everything being moved to AWS in their cloud. Something either in your computer or router may be interfering with getting a reliable connection. One way to test this would be to login to a region that's still hosted on LL's servers, but I don't know what that would be. If anyone does know maybe they'd post it here. If your computer is a laptop, try logging in on another network, or a wired connection if you can. That would either confirm or eliminate your router as the problem. Try another WiFi adapter if you can. It's kind of a long shot, but you may have a bum WiFi adapter in your computer. Finally, check your router to make sure no one is mooching your WiFi, do a malware scan and a hard drive scan. Make sure your clock is set right.

Favorite Christmas song? Probably Christmas in Hollis or Christmas Wrapping Least Favorite, Do they Know it's Christmas or Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer. Favorite Christmas movie: Die Hard. (caveat: I have not seen "Silent Night, Deadly Night" yet). Least Favorite Christmas movie: It's a Wonderful Life.

A study showing masks are minimally effective when used in a population where masks are not mandated or in common use. Are there any potential flaws in this study that anyone can see? Anyone? The big tech companies that are censoring idiots arguing against basic public health measures during a pandemic are absolutely right in doing so.

I cannot wait for the Linden response to the minimum requirements. @Prokofy Nevaplease post the transcript here. I very much want to know the details of how their QC testing of that hardware fever dream went. Or tell me when it is and I will go too.
