  1. Dear Linden Lab, We the residents of Second Life like bacon. Vegetarian options not allowed except waffles and tacos. Please, a pony would really neigh flamboyantly. Indeed, I bathe frequently in California. Glycerine soap isn't available. Regards, A.I. PS: TSOP P.P.S. Oh! FYI: This! Without that blog, nobody will care. Tomorrow things might improve slightly. Life is ... well,

  5. We often remember ridicule. You're ALIVE.
  6. That's not the way I interpret the wiki: Only 16 objects will be scanned each time. Frankly, though, I don't remember. The question is whether it only scans for things with a specific name and stops counting when it gets to 16 or whether it scans for 16 things and asks what their names are. The way to find out is to do a quick test in world, but I'm too lazy/busy/grumpy to do that at the moment.

  8. Well, as I said, the easy way is to just do a sensor sweep that looks for the object by name. There are limitations, of course. The object has to be within sensor range and a sensor can only detect up to 16 items at a time, and it won't detect attachments.

  10. Seriously, though .... An object in inventory does not have a UUID. UUID is assigned when an object is rezzed, and each new rezzed object has a new, unique UUID. Therefore, a sequence like this // Find red ball key redBall = llGetInventoryKey("RedBall"); isn't going to work. If you want to find the red ball, you have to get the UUID of the rezzed instance. The easiest way is to use a sensor, but of course using a sensor will automatically give you the ball's position too, so you don't need the rest of the script except to subtract the detected position from your own.

  13. Two really is excessive. Stop AT ONE. (If it bothers you that AT ONE looks like two words, just look at it as the word ATONE, and atone for your sins of excess. Do it now, please.)
  14. Really awkward. I'm not surprised, STILL ...
  15. Oh, I really can't resist this ... hehehe..... No, no.... I am not a Grammar Nazi. Just a fun-loving nit-picker. You left the door open. I just walked in. 😂 I'll see myself out.
  16. We all change our ways of speaking and writing from one context to another. It's natural. If we didn't, we'd look like buffoons or elitist twats. The thing is, though, being a buffoon or a ***** should be on your shoulders, not something that anyone else needs to point out. I've never liked the term "grammar Nazi", but I can recognize one when I see her (or him -- let's be fair). The GN is one who is overly sensitive to mismatched contexts. She calls out someone for using street language in a garden party, or makes fun of someone talking like an egghead on the basketball court. She may be right in either case but overlooks the fact that being a pedant is socially boorish and just makes her look like the worse fool. Teachers and mothers get special dispensation to be Nazis at times, but anyone else is on dangerous ground. I look at "correctness" in language the way I look at table manners. When my kids were young, I taught them to sit up at dinner and keep their elbows off the table. "But .. but.. but we're at home! Who cares?" I do, because I want you to know how to code switch gracefully so you don't embarrass yourself later at a job interview or when you are at dinner receiving the Nobel Prize. You learn the "rules" that work in different contexts, so you don't end up looking like a buffoon or a *****. On the other hand, if the King of Sweden puts his elbows on the table at the Nobel dinner, don't be the "Table Manners Nazi" who calls him out. Edit: Ooo! Lookit! The editing censor bleeped out one of my words (but not always). There's a GN at work.
  17. I'm not sure whether STUFF or RIGHT is the intended seed, so I'll pick one: So they use far fewer WORDS
