Why is Second Life expensive?
bigmoe Whitfield replied to Lord Derryth's topic in General Discussion Forum
If I want to stop a person from shopping at my stores than I have that right, as I do real life, customer is not always right in all circumstances, LL is not changing it's business model, LL knows what works for them and how much they can afford to move prices and other associated fee's without it hurting their bottom line, right now, LL is moving services to aws, it might get a little cheaper and LL might pass that on, but, really now, stop and think about all what's involved wiht keeping this running, it's not cheap and never will be cheap. -

she did, after, with certain members of her's chunking up 20k or so money, it crashed and burned a couple months later. I have no idea if anything else came up after islandz or not. -
well the 4gb of system ram, it will get by if they are doing nothing else. once they start discord, youtube, firefox,chrome, ect. that systme ram shrinks and once it hits page file, it's going to make SL stutter hard.

not sure it does, much just throwing in what I knew about the inworldz situation and what it was costing according to her, which sounds about right, but sounds like she had to many machines instead of vps's running. -
Hi again, you are not going to get a 3d view, it will be a basic chat with a few features, nothing visual, that is what LL has told us.

Land Owner Forced Teleport Home
bigmoe Whitfield replied to Gabriele Graves's topic in General Discussion
Mainland I set my orb to only scan 200m above the parcel, no return home, on the private sim I rent on, 10 seconds and then you get sent home. I try to not impede on travelers over mainland. -

we once found a sim back in the old class 1-5 days that was hosting a website on it's ip, we reported it and it vanished within a few hours, this was early on in SL though. so that's a neat tidbit I figured I would share -
Why is Second Life expensive?

I know what it costs me to have my units in a dc in indianapolis, I know what the cost was for them and how long it takes to pay them off, and I know what bandwidth costs me and power and hands on support in the dc. it's not cheap, I've got 4 machines in a rented cabinet... LL has their own, but looking at the servers they need. 30k+ each machine, that gets replaced on a repeating cycle. LL is going to make some money on them, that's very true, they are a for profit company and these prices are what they have set because it's what keeps the platform up and running and alive. Also, my machines are from 2015, each was 22k with teh configs that I ordered. server prices are not cheap, LL is not going to throw a desktop into rack and go "there we go" -
Same here.

Why does SL cost as much you say. Some basic break downs. Hardware costs are not cheap, Data center costs are not cheap, Bandwidth at this level is not cheap, employee salaries are not cheap. See where I'm going, LL has to provide for those basic items first, the outcome is we get to play SL, LL is moving simulators to amazons aws platform as we speak, so pricing could change for the better, we are not sure what LL will do just yet. -
No official app for android yet, that's coming at some point, there was one on android, but google play changed their policy, the creator never did update for it, so it got removed.

New kind of region crossing failure
bigmoe Whitfield replied to animats's topic in General Second Life Tech Discussion
I remember when this was very common, sim to sim hand off would not complete and you would basically get stuck in limbo until it timed you out. -

Let's wait for the move to aws, LL already does not have the servers to host new regions.
