if your friend had edit rights to objects rezzed by you (which were transferrable) and your friend linked your objects to their own objects, the ownership of your objects was transferred over to your friend. She now owns all of the objects, so you can't take them back or delete them without permissions. In case that was confusing: you own an on object the object is Transfer your friend links that object to someone else's object the object now belongs to someone else

It isn't. Just hold your "jump" key, assuming you know how to jump.

Without doing any kind of tests myself, I would guess that a simple llGetAgentSize or similar avatar-specific function could be used to check whether the avatar is known to the region. That might not work for many reasons, but if you just want a delay, llSleep will work. But there's no knowing what amount of delay is enough for all cases, and adding artificial lag back into your script kind of defeats the purpose of fast region crossings. It's also possible that these issues could be avoided by writing a new script from scratch, but that's not always desirable either.

Ah, this went off the rails very quickly. I thought this was going to be a technical discussion. Personally I just want someone to upload the internet to my brain, and my brain to the internet after my death. That's enough transhumanism for me.

We don't blame the people who buy what's available. We blame the creators second and LL first, for enabling creators to bring us into this situation we're in. The best solution we have is a reforming of the Complexity calculation (called project ARCTAN in the past, if that's still around), which should cause most complexity numbers to shoot up because the vast majority of SL content exploits Complexity, knowingly or not. Once LL gives people a new framework to work within, it'll naturally guide most people to better practices the same way as up until now the "best practice" has been exploits.

The stated reason for the UV map is (I'm paraphrasing) to make it easier for creators to make "seamless" textures for the body, since it's all one connected texture. LL isn't "lying," they're just dumb. The way Complexity is officially calculated is flawed and easily exploitable.

The biggest technical hurdle LL would have to solve is the fact that anyone can change the world in any unpredictable way. Sure, you can have multiple instances of a sim, so that 500 people can exist within it, even if only up to 100 of them can see each other. But what happens when somebody rezzes an object? Does that object get rezzed in every shard? And what happens when objects are scripted to interact with avatars, such as speak to them or even follow them? It would be pretty weird to see objects floating about and interacting with non-existing avatars. Or maybe whenever a new shard is created, it starts from some backup save and the changes in one shard don't affect another. But then what decides that backup point and how do you make sure it can't be used to exploit something like the permission system? What happens when an avatar leaves the sim (shard) and immediately teleports back in, into a different shard which might be in a slightly/completely different state? Even the persistent worlds of other games are relatively static, with the dynamic content (items you can pick up, enemies, some mini-events, etc) being separate but predictable because the players are inherently more limited in their abilities to affect permanent free-form change in the world.

Shards are definitely used for persistent worlds as well, it could theoretically work for Second Life, but probably not in practice. Regardless of what we call it -- you'll have to explain what you mean by "sharding." Otherwise this convo is going to be pretty aimless.

Easiest way to freeze the viewer with a snapshot is to increase the resolution. Make sure you're not trying to do 4K shots or something. Or if you are, expect the freeze.

Ah sorry, I think I understand now after also re-reading the earlier comments. If you rented land on the last day of the month, you would get charged for that month. If you then release the land on the next day, you would get charged for that month as well. If instead you rented land on the first day of the month, you would only be charged once. That does sound a bit backwards.

I'm not saying something so reductive as "adding skintones is too much choice." I'm saying that a new user -- who knows nothing about Second Life -- may think that these are all the choices they're going to get when presented with a set amount of starter avatars, or that some aspects of their avatar (such as gender) would be unchangeable. You haven't even finished signing up but you're already disappointed because you don't like your options. There are very few games (even MMOs) that have as much customization as Second Life. Not every game/MMO allows you to switch genders, especially without paying a fee every time. Heck, there are people who play Second Life but have never touched another "game" in their lives. Besides that, it's an extra step in the signup process. Any step, no matter how simple, adds complexity that will turn some people away. LL has said as much and they actually have stats to make decisions with. The removal of last names is the most notable feature they cut because of its effect on new user signups. I'm not here defending LL's decisions, I don't even agree with them. I'm only explaining the what/why.

You don't need one to pee though. 🤔 Certainly missed a couple biology lessons.

Two pinned topics on the LSL Scripting forum:

Careful there. What for. I'm being light-hearted as I'm sure you are too, but what you're saying is that the genitals you have is what defines your gender. P**is = man. No p**is = no man. This line of reasoning is something trans people find very distressing, both male-to-female as well as female-to-male.

Careful there.

More choice = more good, sometimes. There are many reasons related to human psychology to reduce choice. Look up "analysis paralysis" and "beauty in simplicity (in design)" for example. LL has used these to reduce the complexity of the signup process in many ways for new accounts. But I think the main reason for the overall tone of responses in this particular thread (not seen as much in other threads with similar subjects) is the opening line. "I chose non-binary and was given a light-skinned/white avatar." Like, excuse me? Light-skinned/white people can't be non-binary? Or is it the skin color in general that's the issue? They did follow that up with "okay, it's fine" but then made the whole thread about how it's neither okay nor fine. That totally comes off as playing the victim and/or what some people call SJW issues.

What are the specs of your "beefy" PC?

Except you generally don't rent month-to-month IRL, you enter some kind of contract that forces you to pay for a set period of time, no matter how little time you spend there. Even if you were renting month-to-month, you would pay for the full month before moving in and probably not get refunded if you left the next day. The same applies to most subscription-based services, where getting a refund for the unspent time is the exception.

Your problem is a type mismatch. default { state_entry() { list stuff = ["779e1d56-5500-4e22-940a-cd7b5adddbe0"]; key who = "779e1d56-5500-4e22-940a-cd7b5adddbe0"; llOwnerSay( (string)llListFindList(stuff, [who]) ); } } This script will return -1 (not found). Why? Because the list contains a string, and who contains a key. They may look the same, but they aren't the same.

More like a month ago. The old dark theme (or the old white theme with Dark Reader) we had worked well enough. This new theme broke dark mode. (And while I normally use the Dark Reader plugin, this new theme somehow manages to have some parts of the page stay completely white which is worse than reading black-on-black text.)

A+, these are so rare. Also, generally androgynous singers.

The importer in Second Life doesn't support this. You'll have to upload the mesh and texture separately, then add the texture by hand.

I like any vocalist with a wide range, so I tend to like men who can hit high pitches and women who can hit low pitches. For example, PelleK has a really impressive voice: (This isn't a song, you can skip through it.) But the primary thing that decides whether or not I like the songs are the lyrics and subject matter. As much as I like his voice, I don't like most of his covers because of the kinds of songs they are and how he doesn't always go through many different ranges of his voice. That said, on average, my playlist is mainly filled with either female vocals or high-pitched men. I guess I like softer vocals with a bit of low-tones mixed in. Alec Benjamin is a good example of the kind of vocals I like. He varies a lot between low and high in every song, but mostly stays on the high end.

If you're losing money, LL is losing money. LL doesn't make a commission off of in-world transactions, so why would they encourage that after raising their own MP cut? Lay off the conspiracy theories.
