  1. If you use the Firestorm viewer, there is an AO built into the viewer.  All you need to do is add the animations you want to use  You can add to or remove whenever you like and the bonus is that you can create any outfit and the AO exists outside the outfit so no need to change anything at that point.

    Here is a link to information regarding the Firestorm viewer.  They have free classes on a regular basis, including one on the AO.

  2. You should be able to right click your hair and select Detach to remove it.  Alternatively, open your inventory, click the Worn tab at the top and find the hair that is attached.  Right click the hair in your inventory and select Detach. Either way results in your hair being removed from your head.   You might have been experiencing some lag trying to remove it.

  3. You cannot delete your account via a message like this on the SL Forum.   If you want to cancel your account/avatar, go to your dashboard at secondlife.com and select Account > Delete Account from the left side menu.

    In other news . . .

    Larry is alive and well posting on the feed and occasionally inworld. I chatted with him inworld a few days ago and he said nothing about hiding out from the authorities.

    I'm sure Zoe was just askin'.   It ain't like it's an impossible scenerio.

     

    Yeah, soz I'm just sayin'.  It ain't like I was shutting him down. :matte-motes-bored:

  5. The idea that there may be tolerance for some error in computing (i.e. 'good enough') is new to me.  As one who worked many years in quality assurance/control as it pertains to the collection, analysis and reporting of clinical trial data I know how challenging it can be for those who work with the data to tolerate anything more than zero error.  It was only when I illustrated the path data take from patient experience to final output, and where error can be introduced at any one or more points in the process, that I was able to communicate to internal users that 'we' can control only part of the journey.  So, we assume we are working with imperfection to start and our job is to contain the imperfection.  Understanding the impact research medicines have on patient populations is a bit different than what is described in your snippet and the linked article but I had to find some way to relate my experience.

    I can understand the challenge development teams have in determining the quality metric to define the acceptable level of end-user experience for 'good enough' computing.   Sounds like there are some big brains looking at this problem.

    i usually never accept or check links - but i never had any problems with links in the past,
    so i was just curious and forgot about the danger.

    No, you did not forget about the danger, you ignored it.  Lesson learned I hope.

  7. When you return all the items together to your inventory, they appear as a coalesced item.  While I have never experienced one object being linked to another when unpacking (unless I linked them to start), perhaps this is what you mean.  If you 'return all' they won't go neatly into their individual folders as they would have if you picked up each object one at a time.

    If you are concerned about accidentally deleting a non-copy item, then perhaps you should gather your objects one-at-a-time.

  8. You can reactivate an account after you have cancelled it and it will cost a modest fee.  The longer the account is dormant, the longer it may take to reactivate it and, if it has been quite a long time, you may get your avatar without an inventory or a reduced inventory.  Just something to keep in mind.

  9. One never really 'owns' land in SL.  Whether paying rent to another resident or tier to LL, there is some ongoing cost involved after the initial purchase.  The fee may be weekly or monthly.  For example, I live on a modest island parcel where I pay rent once/month. If I want to move, I just stop paying the rent rock and move on.

    So, no, you cannot own land without paying something on a regular basis.
