    Mmm, yes .... because oh so many people will be looking to the Second Life Forum for their information needs on the Pandemic and treatments .... They're not providing a single thing. At all. No one external to Second Life is going to come here for their information nor is this forum any sort of news source. You may believe otherwise - that does not make it true. You can choose to refute the misinformation as it comes along (among other 'responses') but do kindly try not to pretend this tiny little space has any real importance to the world at large. It doesn't.

    Avatar Imposters will affect the Animations as well. An Imposter does not animate fluidly.

    How about .... No. Can't be arsed to log in on a daily basis? Well, that's your own issue now isn't it? If one needs a reward as incentive to coax a log in, one should not be here. Cripes ....

    That's nice. Meanwhile, they have not changed much of anything whatsoever regarding how the DMCA procedure is handled. Which means that either your DMCA was improperly filed in some way or the person you filed against, counter-filed. Beginning and end of. You've shown your hand and colors. Good day.
  5. Solar Legion
    No, Linden Lab did not ignore your DMCA - period. The process has - since they began allowing it - remained fairly consistent (all one has to do to verify this is go looking through this forum - perhaps a few others): You file, Linden Lab removes the offending item (or items if more than one are named), the accused then has the option to counter your claim at which point Linden Lab reinstates the items and you must take the issue to court to settle it. There are and have never been any exceptions to this. No, this is not up for debate/discussion. The above is how it has been.

    Oh for .... A region can support up to 100 avatars. That does not mean that they can do so consistently or reliably. How many you can have on a given region will be determined by a number of factors, some already mentioned in this very thread. There is no reason whatsoever to claim it is not possible or a falsehood.

    About the only thing(s) this "fiasco" really shows is how hungry people are for Free or Nearly Free stuff as well as the absolute need for proper Demos for Mesh Bodies and Heads. There should not have been any reason whatsoever for such a rush. No, not even if it were a Limited Edition or some other marketing gimmick.

    Advanced Lighting Model - that's the function that allows you to see Shadows, Materials, Point Lights, Projectors and pretty much all of the newer visual shiny things. Second Life is not coded to make use of RTX functions.

    To add to my two recent posts: VR support on Linux is still a bit tricky as well, though Valve has been making some good strides in that direction. Until that is a fair bit further along and I - personally - have a better GPU, I'll be 'limited' to what I can put on the Quest 2 internal memory.

    I do not like what VR for Second Life will require: An absolute end to the current level of creative freedom. We already have too many user that seem to think it would be a good idea for strict limits on a variety of factors. That needs to stop - last Millennium. As far as the Facebook requirement ... Meh. Not a deal breaker for me.

    Tried it. Getting an Oculus Quest 2 today. My views on Second Life and VR remain unchanged.
  12. Solar Legion
    VR needs to stay as far away from Second Life as possible. Yes, that is my personal opinion but as far as that goes, I am adamant on it. The only way to make Second Life properly usable in VR includes severely restricting the current creative freedom the user base has - there is no getting around that at all. You want VR? Go use VR Chat or something similar.

    Heh, there were a few other menu items that triggered it as well - simply because they were coded to open the internal Browser and go to a specific web page. Most of those were - and still are - account and support/help related.
  14. Solar Legion
    It was in one of the original menu categories at the top. I do not remember if you could set how the Viewer handled Web Links in the older Viewers or not but I think you could tell it to open them either in the internal Browser or in an External Browser - same as you can today.

    Through the many evolutions of cellular phone technology, never once have I had to change my number. Not even when updating to a phone that took a smaller SIM Card type than the previous. My number has always carried forward. Then again I have not ever had to go to a physical store to get an emergency replacement device on such short notice either.
  16. Solar Legion
    Bah, no worries. As noted above, short on patience today. I hate rainy/stormy days and so does my head.
  17. Solar Legion
    Yes, that is part of what I mean and the expanded version of what I said. Brand recognition and the fact that the option to send to it is right there, showing that brand name. Heh, you're having a brain fog day and I've got a case of weather based irritation. Apologies on my tone.

    Oh for .... Read. What. Was. Said. Flickr was there by name. That is the difference. It has nothing whatsoever to do with extra steps. As for the incorrect information regarding how to send it to Snapzilla ... To Send a Postcard you have to ..... Send it Via an E-mail. The option is labeled differently depending on the Viewer used. Seen below - to further drive home the primary point (which you either did not get or simply ignored) and further negate that rather incorrect information (while showcasing the difference in naming conventions between Viewers) is how the Snapshot Window appears on Firestorm when you are chosing how to save the Snapshot, followed by the Send to E-mail section. Out of curiosity I looked at the Share to Flickr dialog option and found it had several text entry boxes as well. So once again, it has nothing whatsoever to do with saving any time and everything to do with one option being named directly in the floater and one using a generic function.
  19. Solar Legion
    Yes and no. Flickr was marked by name. Snapzilla requires you use Send to E-mail. Therein lies the difference for easily led around users. Which was - I thought - quite obvious given the way I'd phrased my post.
  20. Solar Legion
    The answer is even simpler: Flickr was directly integrated into the snapshot window as a Save option (among others). This was done during the time when there was a push for broader Social network integration (excuse me while I void the contents of my stomach). That's it. That's all.

    I do not use and have not used Windows for many years now. The closest thing to it I currently use is Proton and WINE. The closest thing to it I will use in the future will be ReactOS (once it properly catches up). There is no reason whatsoever to require the average end user to enable Developer Features, least of all to circumvent something that should not even be there in the first place. Android has a similar problem with functions that should not even be behind such a 'wall' having been placed in the Developer Options (among other issues). It is not all that hard to understand and is (part of) why I stated that I cannot roll my eyes hard enough. The other part is that a program "signed" by Microsoft is not intrinsically more "trustworthy" - such has been the case since the early days of their OS and company.
  22. Solar Legion
    You answered your own quandary: They're called .... Clients.
  23. Solar Legion
    Ah yes, because all programs that are "signed" by that Microsoft Certificate are - in fact - trustworthy .... I cannot roll my eyes nearly hard enough ....
  24. Solar Legion
    People that insist on pretending program differentiation terminology serves no purpose ...
  25. Solar Legion
    And another typical response ....
