[NEW THEME!! Beachy/Summery?]

I would imagine sometime next week 14th to 20th December would be a good time for the Stilt release. 

I don't think it will happen during the Christmas week or the last week of 2020. The Lab could surprise everyone who knows. 

The next opportunity would be the first or second week in January 2021 after the holidays. 

 

Oh, I'd agree/hope with next week for stilt releases. I was just enjoying Rider Linden pinching  the Robert Browning quote - there is poetry to be found in everything

Inara Pey has published her summary of today's server user group meeting.

Notably, Rider Linden said:

"All will be right with the world" does not imply that everything is fixed; notably, the inworld map will not be fixed yet, and they're going to be doing a couple of 'login maintenance' sessions.  One can hope that Rider means that the uplifted grid will be stable enough to not require emergency fixes during the holidays.  Does that mean it will be stable enough to release the stilts next week?  Possibly Patch is wondering the same thing

"All will be right with the world" says to me they'll be back to their usual routine and things will be heading in the right direction. Though with a lack of a lark on the wing or a snail on the thorn, I may be wrong with the Robert Browning connection. Moles on the grid would work in place of larks and snails possibly.  I do like the idea of Linden gods watching over it all though. I shall stop with the analogies now

Opening old threads is fine, we call it "necroposting" - bringing a thread back from the dead!

I know what necroposting is. I'm unclear who you're unhappy with but I can live with that. 

Thanks again to Lindal for answering my question - I've been in SL long enough to know she knows what she's talking about.

Mariska resurrected it.  I was replying to the question she asked TODAY. 😊

I assumed the dig was aimed at me. I did consider offering to start a whole new thread instead 😉

I've been looking at new laptops for using in SL and this thread came up during my searches - so I'm going to resurrect it

 

I'm currently looking at the following spec and wondered if anyone has any input? I suppose I'm most interested in whether this should last me SL wise for at least 3 years.

[Things that sound normal in SL, but creepy as hell in RL.]

When your Plantpet is ready to produce a seed, saying: "Give baby". That looks really odd to anyone in local chat listening distance in SL 😕

Well, I am only human, lol. It was 7 boats and it was more than 20 avatars around in Pegleg. Plus all those refreshing that was not logged in.

I reckon you haz skillz. We're expecting reconnaissance now for the rest of the week.

I may or may not have been lurking here for a while, even though I've not posted (I've got your blender tutorial about making walls book marked and I'm hoping you start selling things on MP) . So I feel qualified to state this. I may sound just a little stalkerish, sorry 😕

I was I who started to talk about it. And I made all others belive it too. I hope it - because I can glue myself in front of the computer until midnight my time - today.

I can not waste time on wrong houses/boats. I was stupid and clicked on two. I can not run out of 5 tries.

You were right, it was Pegleg.

[Neighboring Sim on Mainland rezzing Prim on Parcel - How to Stop?]

I'm hesitating to suggest this because I'm no expert and you've probably already thought of this and discounted it but just incase...

Have you tried using Phoenix - area search (using the prim owner's name in search field) and heading towards the red arrow? It may take a few goes to see the beam of light and if it's tiny it could take a few more to see it highlighted but it *might* work.

[Finding out what viewer a resident is using]

What Archie said (minus the wandering girl friends - if I'm trying to keep up with a friend then I just look for yellow dots on mini map)

I don't know about the other nosier stuff mentioned but Phoenix displays the names of different TPVs and also Viewer 2 - ergo anyone without a viewer tag is on 1.23)

It's been a while since I used Viewer 2 - I thought that too showed the different viewer tags above people's names, I guess I got that wrong.

[Half of my inventory, gone!!]

I just wanted to say a big thank you to Unkle Bob for his post I often read these threads and you guys (the ones who post regularly) are very helpful.

 

Thanks :-)
