[Mesh Update: Part Deux]

Reading and understanding the Intellectual Property Rights tutorial should have been a prerequisite for any kind of building for years! The tutorial is not especially helpful when it comes to the creation and import of mesh objects.

 

 

[A Farewell From Jack]

So apparently people feel they have to defend others for throwing dirt behind a man who is leaving the company. Really, have you had no upbringing at all? People who are shocked about the rude language of diplomats in their "condifential" cables should take a peek into this blog... really... while still celebrating the holidays I got the next load of mud from overseas. What kind of people have we shipped to that continent in what must have been Europe's darkest hour?

[A Farewell From Jack]

Jack, you helped us get rid of ad farms, extortionists and other major and minor annoyances. This world has certainly improved because of that.
Your office hours were often impressive. I can't remember that anyone else's OH was filled with serious business from the first till the last minute, even if now and then you appeared in the form of an old lady ready to slam us with your handbag. :-p

I hope you will stay to enjoy this world, even if it might be strange not to roam around as a Linden.

Best wishes for the holidays!

@LillyBeth: nice blog! If you would also have tried the "Full access" button it would have brought you to a regular membership page and download of the normal viewer.

Being dropped at 0,0,0 is exactly what happened to me several times this week.

I was thinking I had been banned somewhere or the business had vanished. Thanks for posting this.

@Wayfinder: We give our input to the Lindens several times a week during office hours (see http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Office_hours).

Some of the best listeners you will find during the Beta Server office hours on the Aditi grid: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Beta_Server_Office_Hours#Agenda

There are just "not too many" Lindens left to get all the work done. :-(

Without Javascript I wouldn't be able to watch YouTube movies either, now ofcourse Windows users never watch Youtube...

I wouldn't be able to read half my favourite newspaper. But ofcourse Windows users never read a paper online.

I wouldn't be able to play one of the many java based games that are out there on the web. But ofcourse Windows users don't play games on the web.

Technial experience with Google Chrome is good. Mozilla Firefox won't let me enter the required email address so I got stuck there.

My regular avatar could send a friendship request to a guest, without any warning that the guest wouldn't even see it. Also I could pay L$ to a guest, which have been deducted from the amount I carried but ofcourse didn't arrive anywhere. A nice pop-up about these things (in the regular viewer) might just be an idea.

I hope regulars behave a bit with real guest users. I just ran into a couple of idiots in Da Vinci Gardens, who did nothing but play farting noises etc.
