Yet Another "what computer" question...
Lyssa Greymoon replied to Harper Held's topic in General Second Life Tech Discussion
They also have mid-week madness sales on Wednesdays, the prices and selection are usually better. Check the regular listings too, sometimes their new products are cheaper than b-stock. -
oh, okay, never mind.

Sometimes the viewers can do a sub-optimal job with the default graphics settings. Like enabling shadows on video cards that have no business trying to do that. Turning off shadows is the #1 way to improve performance. If you're running Firestorm (which I assume you are because everyone does) go to graphics settings and change water reflections to none (opaque). There's a bug that causes a significant hit to performance even if you're nowhere near any water. All viewers have an option to enable lossy texture compression. I find this helps, especially in crowded situations because running out of VRAM tanks your performance straight to zero, and this cuts SL's VRAM usage in half. More or less. If you have a computer that struggles with basic computer tasks, this may do more harm than good. Finally, if you aren't using the Linden viewer, download the latest one and give it a shot, they've introduced some excellent performance improvements.

How big is your block list?
Lyssa Greymoon replied to Stephanie Misfit's topic in General Discussion Forum
Right now it's two people and three annoying objects. That's what I mostly use it for, people who are playing music over voice or a repeating gesture and objects that just won't STFU. -
How can I get my mic to work?

Ask and you shall receive. Looks like it did fix it. Thanks Firestorm people! -

I think you have to wait for the next release of Firestorm. macOS’s security won’t let FS access the microphone. -
Linden Performance viewer and Texture thrashing
Lyssa Greymoon replied to Frederika Rayna's topic in Second Life Viewer
The information is reported accurately in the System Report. I'm pretty sure it has been for years and it can't be that difficult to access. This whole thing has the we couldn't figure out how to do it in 2004 and no one ever tried again vibe. -

Any Way to Stop Pervert's from Derezzing Cloths ?
Lyssa Greymoon replied to Indiana Nexen's topic in General Discussion Forum
How do people even know they're doing this? Do they tell you they're derezzing your clothes? More importantly, why don't I know about people doing this? On second thought, don't answer that. -
AR is for spam, ignore list is for jerks.

Space Daddy bails on bird site...
Lyssa Greymoon replied to Coffee Pancake's topic in General Discussion Forum
I thought it was either a pump & dump or a way to extricate some of his money money from the Tesla stock bubble. Whatever it was, it went horribly, fabulously wrong.
