    My country has as many citizens as Toronto. Yes, my whole country.

    We have 800 cases, US have 1200 - 1300?

    About 1,700 reported cases. Reported being the operative word because so few people are being tested for it. I expect the true number is much, much higher. My state has three times the population of Toronto and maybe 200 people have been tested, total. The numbers are only available for the state labs, but the number of tests given at private labs can be estimated from the number of positive results. I have no doubt whatsoever that there are at least tens of thousands of Americans with undiagnosed cases.

    There actually IS a way that the SL community can, er... respond to COVID-19 that may actually help people fend off the virus.

    LINK TO A SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE THAT SOME WILL CONSIDER NSFW SO YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.

    SL isn't necessarily necessary for this exercise, per se, but I've often found it helpful as a means to an... end

    But don't forget to wash your hands after.

    If that was true, I’d be like Deadpool by now.

    I particularly enjoy that message. It means someone specifically took the time to render me that couldn't see me previously.

     Now I’ll be thinking about someone immediately regretting their decision every time I see this.

    i still have my gtx 970 but i really don't know how to work that al.. and mostly this set up works fine

    I was thinking more along the lines of plugging the second monitor into the video port on your PC's motherboard, or using a cheap display adapter like a 210 or 710 if your PC has a spare slot for it. Using the 970 for that would be a little overkill.

    Motherboard: AsusTek Computer Inc. K50IJ

    There are no Windows 10 drivers for this computer's video chip. You might be able to get it to work under Windows 8.1, but other than that, it's time for a new computer.

    ehm... it's not really that it helped against unusable names... some made it even móre unusable and even unreadable

    It’s helped a lot, people don’t notice when someone changes their resident username to something that looks like a legacy username. They only complain when someone anything outside their 26 letter comfort zone in a display name that makes them think about it for two seconds.

    1. For the last ten years display names have been the fix for sticking people with increasingly unusable usernames. To expect someone to make use of display names in world to get something reasonable and prohibit them from using the same name on the forums seems a bit crap.

    2. Not everyone in the world uses the Latin alphabet. Allowing residents to use characters of their own language in their user name seems like the right thing to do. Especially since there are support forums in several of those languages.

    But the first thing everyone thinks about is how the glamazons will invade the forum with their unicode bling and ruin everything.
