  1. I don't know what this means but it sounds like fun.
  2. I put a post-it note on the broken computer six months ago, that's the same as calling the help desk and telling someone about it, right?
  3. "I always thought something was fundamentally wrong with the universe." -Arthur Dent
  4. You got a serious response in the very first reply.
  5. I think a black login screen means you have been permabann3d and a SWAT team is on the way to see you.
  6. No. I’ve been to some places where it seemed like the DJ’s material was begging for tips with the occasional song thrown in.
  7. Clicking the arrow has always made it disappear for me. I didn’t even know “stop tracking” existed until this thread.
  8. If it's overhearing I'd suggest some canned air to blow the dust out. Is this a desktop or laptop? For graphics settings I'd start by resetting to recommended settings, then turning off the advanced lighting model and reducing the draw distance in the basic graphics settings. In advanced settings turn particles down.
  9. Using low graphics will probably hurt it more. It disables features that speed up SL.
  10. Let’s just all relax and take in some cosmic energy.
  11. I watch some YouTube videos, but don't read blogs.
  12. If I make an edit it’s to remove a technical flaw like a piece of avatar poking through clothing. The edit is technically visible, but you wouldn’t know it unless you were looking at the unedited photo beside it.
  13. I for one cannot wait for Media Zealot’s video on Gor.
  14. Going to restore someone's data and discovering they unplugged their backup drive in 2017.
  15. Maybe it was using Apple as the shining example of convenience in design. That's exactly the kind of thing they do.
  16. A very silly thing that people involved with took way too seriously. I remember going to one of the Gor joints and being given a set of notecards, each about the size of the technical manual for the space shuttle and told that was what I'd need to know to RP there. Yeah, I can't be bothered to read the instructions on a packet of Ramen, so that's not happening.
  17. You should check out: https://www.youtube.com/user/Chyrosran22
  18. Everyone is trying to make things more complicated than they really are. All the settings a n00b needs to adjust to deal with lag are in the basic graphics settings screen. Turn off ALM, dial down draw distance and avatar complexity. Then leave it there. Most of the stuff in the advanced settings makes no difference, or can make it worse and can safely be ignored. If Second Life was an Apple product, you'd have to type in your password for every region crossing and teleport to protect you from yourself. The ease of use thing for Macs is pretty 1980s. Apple isn't a computer company, it's a phone company that makes computers on the side.
  19. I think the experience would be improved considerably if developers made the default graphics settings more realistic. Shadows and ALM are on by default on video cards that have no business running them. You don’t need to have the viewer automatically turn off ALM as soon as you leave your skybox if it’s not on in the first place.
