  1. I looked up the HNC thing on the urban dictionary (barf). It's about as racist as you can imagine. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=HNC
  2. I grew up in Lousyana. Most of the black families in CenLa have relatives in Chicago. I learned that when a friend went to Chicago to visit with family... and then decided to stay. In talking with her, I found that that happens quite frequently.
  3. Apparently some people are unaware of how many families in Chicago have family still in the south. Seemed like most blacks in the town I grew up in had family in Chicago. I was amazed to find that out decades ago. A lot of the escapees went to Illinois from Dixie.
  4. Thankfully I'm not most "kids". The only sim I've ever killed off (and had fun doing it) was Mortimer. I have aging turned off so they don't die and I age them up when I want them to age up. Yes, only Mortimer through all 4 iterations of The Sims. No, sorry, most people who play don't intentionally kill off their sims routinely.
  5. It doesn't happen often and I haven't heard of it happening in a long time, but you never know. For some things it's better to be safe, than sorry.
  6. It's always best to have the alt logged in when transfering funds or log it in immediately after transfer to check. There have been times when things have gone awry (through no fault of LL's) and the funds don't transfer. Then you're kind of screwed. Never just transfer without checking.
  7. There is always the FS support groups to ask for help. I doubt you are the only one running CentOS 7. It's possible but I doubt it. There is usually someone around that can at least point you in the right direction. Let's call in someone who is still on the team @Whirly Fizzle. Whirlz is Q&A and knows pretty much anything you need to know. I'm not sure how much Linux knowledge she has but she can point you in the right direction.
  8. Banks are not allowed in SL. They were banned years ago because of the US federal regulations. Most people create an alt to use as a "bank".
  9. I use Maitreya for my main and EBody(s) on my alts. I'm happy with both. At some point I'll be upgrading the Ebody(s) to the updateable version. Still haven't updated to BOM though. I usually skip a version or three on Firestorm releases.
  10. Yes. https://nwn.blogs.com/nwn/2020/06/second-life-linden-lab-black-lives-matter.html
  11. Got an EA Origin update earlier and this popped up when I launched my game.
  12. The text has also changed. The font is different and it is now white instead of green.
  13. It's a large part of it, yes. That and the fact that the majority of people only hear without ever listening. Even when they do listen they refuse to see. We live in a world of cruelty and greed masquerading as concern for preserving life and liberty.
  14. I tend to use "he" when I don't know the gender of the person I'm speaking about. Old habits die hard. So the "he" I referred to wasn't Damien, just so you know.
