  1. So existing content is broken. It happens. Not rezzed mine in a while and always wanted to write my own but well. Is this definitive? So when is it settled so I can do mine
  2. Posting here is an even better way to settle things. No really Especially naming names, surprised the OP has not been informed of that particular no-no.
  3. https://www.lindenlab.com/releases/linden-lab-introduces-identity-verification-to-second-life Release from 2007. Think was another attempt a bit later too but memory gets cloudier. (Interesting to see what the verification company the link in the release leads to touts now).
  4. Won't provide a link because - lyrics - but one that always reminds me of my poledancing days would be by Buckcherry off '15' (track 7 I think thank you wikipedia). Must have heard it 3 times a day,,, Oh, and bilingual of course. Well, really.
  5. Ta Benji. See you on slu.. and to Hailee Tempessta .. ' standing together. ' where do you want us to stand? I stand. Always will. Perhaps just not with generic *****e,
  6. No its not the same as it used to be but then again after a decade - neither am I. Like others, I now am in 'other places' but SL remains the base for any creative (term used very loosely by one who struggles to draw a straight line with a ruler) activity. May be in a tiny minority but who cares? My world etc etc... As for external tools - well I have barely touched the internal editor in years having found other tools. OK so the one thing I did have at the beginning was coding experience and its a small example but still - the same applies to using the Gimp or whatever for textures. And yes I fiddle (badly) with Blender, if nothing other than to exercise the swearing muscles. Therapeutic and if my efforts are dreadful compared to others - I don't care. And thanks Medhue for the vid - one I still go back regularly.
  7. Not usual practice but the 'Proteus' effect has some interesting papers and this seemed to add so done. Also no prob on firefox (but on a real PC hihi)
  8. Or indeed fall back on old inspration (although I didn't dare link to the obvious)
  9. I agree there, my rusty recollection is that the 80k+ number was a bit of a fleeting thing and didn't register apart from in a 'thats nice' way. Not like the day back in the mists of time when it hit 15k - and didn't immediately fall over. We were all so much younger then... (Yes the two data points I posted were just that - points and not of any real use for an ongoing trend analysis. Never got around to breaking it out from the emails it sends anyway . More passing anecdotes and we only put the thing out to test some basic web result passing. Kept around more for curiosity now, not as anything of use for anyone else. ).
  10. Depends on your data set. Idle curiosity grabbed these from my groups hourly recorder. It goes back further but ..Three year gap, roughly same SL time (same day, 2014 was Wednesday I think) Object-Name: sign up monitor 2 Region: (removed) Local-Position: (160, 7, 901) Sign up SLT : 2014-02-12 14:55:01 : 37001721 : logged in : 52839 Object-Name: sign up monitor 2 Region: (removed) Local-Position: (160, 7, 901) Sign up SLT : 2017-02-12 14:55:01 : 49143182 : logged in : 53136 Not sure I recall 80k from 5 years ago, before that yes.
  11. Yep also created during a time that .. never mind, long ago. Very usefull as storage and back up for builds only.. he's a DJ now and a bit of a gad about and we hardly speak anymore. Not that I go to his parties anyway. Not since he said that about our Mam.
  12. Interesting. A bit of a flaw over voice. Use of in second part wipes out 'anonimity' in the first. Otherwise I would. How do you reconcile? Small point - 1 brexit pound != trump dollar != inworld conversion - well as yet Yes and aware of UK research cash guidelines.
  13. Accurate analysis. The WWG really was a rehash done badly and without a clue. The NYT gets a grudging pass as it took a jab at the Glass thing plus was really angled at specific use as opposed to technology. The MIT piece - only adding there was not a lot actually new there (seen Metz' stuff before so not exactly surprised) but an interesting line : '...The places I saw that were built by Linden Lab look better and are less buggy than two that are being built by users.' Oops. I put the cost number down to lazy reporting
  14. That was an intersting take. Rambling, pointless but there again that sums me up. And - is AOL really a thing still? You kids today make me feel all nostalgic Talked with some refugees today. We complained about the price of veg due to some rather unusual weather in Spain. I mean, equiv of 10 bucks for a lettuce! Its the sort of thing we do, living next door to each other.
  15. With respect I do think your resonse falls hook line and sinker as a false analogy. Context was a nice try.
  16. i can understand your response and respect it. I hope you come back. Personally I would also like to add my thanks to the Lab for this.
  17. .. or run a bot as a comms centre. Its UUID remains the same after relog and cheap to run too. It does tend to simplify things, having a known centre. Or two if you like a backup. There are several options to both selfhost and offshore.
  18. I believe that rate you are on about can be found here (updates every 15 minutes?) http://secondlife.com/httprequest/homepage.php
  19. Two parts : if there was a total immersion setup (not involving the current set of kit which makes me look even more of an idiot than usual) then - sure. Would be fun. As long as it was free and you could build in it Now, as a partial fur could I live in the cartoon you used as an example? Get rid of the bit about ".. where predators and prey species peacefully coexist" (from wikipedia, admittedly often a fount of nonsense) and it could be even more fun. Prey is prey Ψ==Ψ
  20. Start with this http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Visitors and just add in an llEmail call.
  21. GIGO was sadly suppressed as the cousins across the pond failed to grasp the irony.
  22. Sound approach. I blame 'nutrition' fads and cosmetics 'claims'. The first I learned about when trying to research reliable sources during my vegan years (and that before the explosion of online dross), the second because I know little about the subject, mostly because I could not care less. Closest I get to it is using a blade to shave, the fact I keep it under a crystal pyramid is merely erm...research. Honest.
