  1. When I started SL, I was still working in a job where I talked on the phone all day. Which was really strange because I was such an introvert at the time. I didn't want to talk any further at home while playing SL. I did change jobs where I no longer needed to talk but continued to only type in SL because that's how I got used to playing. I have listened to others talking in SL and it doesn't make me feel like joining in. I've been told I have a great talking voice.
  2. * Attacked by security bees. *Visited combat region for first time and didn't know what they do there. *Logged out while trying on clothes in unfinished Linden land. Logged in to find that mole built house on top of them.
  3. Once in a while someone will ask me where my clothes are from and I usually give it out. No one has ever asked about every single detail of my avatar and I'm not sure I'd answer them. Would you give some random avatar all the details of your avatar? What body, head, skin, hair, eyes, clothes? Or would you keep it a secret so you don't have a complete clone of yourself running around SL?
  4. Took this in the Poppy region at the Halloween Shop-N-Hop. The store doesn't seem to have a name. It has some nice Halloween set pieces.
  5. I think I saw the QIEVENT on SeraphimSL! It says the event runs from 10/2/23 1:00pm to 10/2/23 1:15pm. I missed it.
  6. If possible, buy a 2nd computer and install Second Life on it. Create an alt account and log into the 2nd computer while you are logged into your main computer. Then, you can monitor yourself with your alt and see when your lower body disappears. This may not help you figure out why it is happening but at least you now have a new computer.
  7. -Always wear an AO. Animation Override. -Toilets are only for roleplaying. -A good windlight setting makes you look good.
  8. I don't mind Christmas for all of December but not starting in October. Also, I don't want Halloween for one month.
  9. I totally agree that creators should stop making timed demos. I don't think I've ever bought anything that had a timed demo. When going through a store or event I always end up with many demos. As I try demos I save the items that I might want to buy into a folder and after going through all the demos I go back to that folder to re-look at everything and see what fits my budget. Unfortunately, I can't look at timed demos again and I end up looking at non-timed demos for making my final purchases. It is quite a hassle to buy demos again especially if its in a busy event. There are also times when I want to buy something from a few days to years ago. I have most of my favorited demos sitting in folders and I go back to find the item in order to purchase it at the store. Timed demos lose out again.
  10. I think I had one of those for work before I had to turn it in for a newer model. Maybe you have my laptop! I really like the black Lenovo Thinkpads. It harkens back to the time when IBM and Apple had these competing laptop designs with IBM all black and Apple all white. As far as SL performance goes, it sounds like it's running on the Intel graphics which has some 3d ability. Not the best performance but if it runs SL then you have that going for you AND a nice laptop for everyday use.
  11. Halloween shop n hop. The items sold and free gifts are more on point than other shop n hops, IMO.
  12. The only real thing of value would have to be land. So the only thing the bots would monitor is the status of land in every region and if they are not for sale or for sale. Maybe the frequency of land sales being done within a region. I don't buy and sell land but I think if someone were to make a database and tie that into some kind of automated buying and selling they could constantly raise prices on a particular set of parcels. If the bots monitor places like water adjacent land that all sell for around the same price and find that it is a hot market, they could buy all or most that land and raise the prices because the customer is manually going around and finding all these parcels are now all selling for higher prices. I know that people use data analytics these days to comb through huge amounts of data given out freely and then use that information to make money because no one else can see the patterns they discover.
  13. I have to agree with everyone on this. Maybe in another virtual world but not SL.
  14. This sounds like when a city forbids large advertising signs or billboards and a business parks a big truck on the street with advertising all over the sides. People find a way to get around every rule.
  15. I know Cyberpunk 2077 had raytracing added recently. I tried to enable it on my computer which doesn't support it and the whole game crashed. I had to reinstall. I'd love to see it in SL but it's not necessary.
  16. This thread was so difficult to read. I have always used the Linden viewer but I now occasionally use the Firestorm VR viewer. The LL viewer may be a pain to use but if it doesn't kill you it will make you stronger. I want to try a chip butty. Which I am told is thick cut fries between two slices of buttered sandwich bread. I don't have the exact ingredients but will try to air-fry some crinkle cut fries and put them into a bolillo roll.
  17. I hope it works well because there are times when I’m away from the computer and only have a mobile device. Getting SL to run on limited hardware could also make it run on VR.
  18. "may occasionally lift and/or move up to 10 pounds" What are they looking for? Bodybuilders?
