  1. Here's an unexpected find .... Take Five - Public Piano Performance at a Castle Gate in Okinawa, Japan : Jacob Koller
  2. This one I somehow missed. (Weird!) Wierd? Nah. That's just basic matrix algebra. vector A = < A1, A2, A3> vector B = < B1, B2, B3 > in which each of the elements in A and B are floats, then vector A * vector B = A1*B1 + A2*B2 + A3*B3 <---- a float If any of the elements are integers, I think LSL does implicit typecasting to convert them to floats before multiplying.
  3. Love and Hate : Jessica J Williams, pianist and composer
  4. All generalizations are flawed, for that matter. Including this one.
  5. Indeed. I remember first hearing the Chopin #15 nocturne when I was about 14 and feeling overwhelmed by the melodic line and the cascading harmony. I had an LP recording of the nocturnes by Svaitoslav Richter for many years -- loaned to my sister who, sadly, misplaced it -- but this Horowitz performance is much more emotional than I remember Richter's being.
  6. Vladimir Horowitz: Chopin - Nocturne No. 15 In F Minor, Op. 55 No. 1 This recording of the Nocturne #15 is one of the best I have heard, by one of the best pianists of the 20th century.
  7. Ah, OK. Then you'll never hear anything directly from LL, and if you just submitted the AR they probably won't even see it until Monday. As helpful as a photo might seem, it's too easy to fake one, so the Lab won't make a decision based on your submission alone. They will do a full investigation, gathering their own evidence. That's likely to take time, so be patient. Meanwhile, I'd suggest not taking any action against the neighbors yourself. After all, they could submit their own ARs, which could complicate the investigation.
  8. If you submitted a Support ticket, you did it wrong. File an Abuse Report instead. Support tickets go to the tech team for triage or repair. Abuse reports go to the Governance Team.
  9. I used to feel inadequate and morally lax for not having a tidy, well-organized inventory. I'd lurk in forum threads about how to sort things into logical folders and I'd imagine intricate tree structures with a perfect spot for each of my belongings. I have just a touch of OCD, so I was embarrassed to admit that my inventory is a total mess. NO MORE! My inventory may be a mess but it's my mess and I am proud of it. After almost 17 years in SL, I still have only 46,000+ items in inventory and I rarely have trouble finding things when I need them. Things are jammed into folders with names that point me in the right direction ( "Landscaping Stuff", "Dresses (mostly)", ... ) and many that refer to specific projects ( by a code name and date, usually), but the folders are wherever I thought they made sense at the time. There's no consistent logic to them. I run barefoot through inventory to find specific things, trusting my memory and enjoying a touch of serendipity when I discover something I wasn't really looking for along the way. It's all gleefully chaotic, quite like the random stacks of things around me in RL. I couldn't explain to anyone else how I find my way through the mess, but who cares?
  10. Cambridge Buskers Concert This is an unorthodox but very entertaining selection of classical and semi-classical favorites. I remember seeing the two of them perform sometime in the early 80s. This video in this recording (in Japan) is not very good but the music is fun.
  11. J.S. Bach: Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 / Cappella Gabetta, Maurice Steger, Andrés Gabetta This is one animated performance!
  12. Unlikely, although you should probably contact the scripter directly to see if s/he has any suggestions (or has perhaps been working on an update). It's more likely that you are accidentally overloading it somehow. Trying to feed it too much data? Feeding it data in the wrong format? Unfortunately, since you can't see the script itself there's no way you can do the sort of debugging that would give you clues about why it's overloading.
  13. If that's not your script, you probably don't have permission to view it or modify it, so the short answer is that you can't "fix" it. Frionil is right. Your script has run out of memory, probably because it has been saving information in internal lists and it has saved so much information that it is choking on it. I doubt that you will be able to reset the script by the methods Frionil suggests, but go ahead and try anyway. If you don't have permission, the reset options should not be available for you. You will need to rez a fresh copy of the script.
  14. True enough. One person can't sustain a shouting match very well. It's like clapping with one hand. That's why my peeve was that "a perfectly good topic gets commandeered by a small handful of people" who find it entertaining to attack each other and derail the thread. The point of a discussion isn't to "win"; it's to discuss. And yes, Enough.
  15. Indeed. What usually happens -- and happened in that thread -- is that a perfectly good topic gets commandeered by a small handful of people whose idea of "interesting" and "entertaining" involves tossing insults at each other and dragging the topic into the weeds. The rest of us leave to do other things until the nonsense gets totally out of hand and the moderators have to shut it down.
  16. I have never seen that site before, but I would only use it as a rough guide if I were you. The LindeX does not have currency conversion. When you buy L$, you are buying with USD. If you are starting with some other currency (Euros, perhaps, or Yen), you will have to convert them to USD first. That conversion is often done automatically by your bank or your credit card company or by PayPay, which charges its own conversion fees and may use an exchange rate that is different from the site you were consulting. And then, of course, there are the standard transaction fees that we all pay for any trade in the LindeX itself. The bottom line, therefore, is that the site you have been looking at can't be very accurate because it can't know exactly what steps you will be taking between your home currency and L$. Keep in mind also that conversion rates vary, sometimes rapidly. The conversion rate from USD to L$ has been very steady for years, but the same is not true for conversion among RL currencies. The best suggestion I can offer is to overestimate the first few times that you buy L$, just to get a feel for the effective yield rate. Then use your experience to create your own empirical guideline.
  17. Set the target for the particles to the generator itself, by setting it equal to llGetKey().
  18. It's a script thing. I suggest posting in the InWorld Employment forum to attract a scripter to write something for you, assuming that you are the region owner and have a Premium membership and have created an Experience.
