  1. There's nothing wrong with acquiring those services, they have grown and became essential to business. If they are suddenly gone it will negatively affect everyone. But yes, of course they are going monetize CasperVend, that's why they Patch Linden worded the post as such - "foreseeable future" which is vague. Can't really blame LL for the Linden Homes too. They make things easier and ..prettier. Resident-run business land can't run on this scale. I see it as a replacement for "mainland" which looks atrocious.
  2. No, it won't kill commerce, market will simply adapt. Just like when mesh came out and it killed lots of brands but many new were established. SL hasn't gone anywhere... The only way to kill SL is to try to sanitize it and make it PEGI like they did with Sansar. Companies going out of business is completely natural. Apple pretty much killed Dark Sky app when they upgraded their own iOS weather app. Does it suck for Dark Sky? Yes. But as user I like that I don't have to install yet another app for basic functionality. If people prefer something extra/specific which Maitreya offers they will stick to it and the brand will survive. Also It must be fun for new residents to accidentally detach their head or body and wonder what the deuce is going on... And by "compatibility layer" I mean system that lets people use Maitreya rigged products on Kupra for example. And no - deformers are not going to help although they do in the case of Gianni -> David because both bodies are made by same person, they have the files, therefore can "extrapolate" the values for the deformer.
  3. Not only 10 years too late but not even close to 3rd party solutions. A multi million dollar company can't afford professional grade 3D artist? Also this doesn't appear to be an entirely new body system but just a mesh worn on top of the system body. I don't see this dealing with the whole body clusterfudge mess that currently is. If it's even technologically possible, I'd much rather to see some kind of compatibility layer. Every year a new body comes out, and old stuff don't work because nobody will update tens or hundreds products.
  4. Can someone confirm if the chip in the vaccines works after the latest iOS update? /s
  5. Just the other day I was wondering when LL will finally make Daddy last name available so I can cringe. They should email everyone who has unironically purchased it this video
  6. 1) You can correct it with glasses or contact lenses... 2) Every smartphone allows you change the font/UI size 3) Android/iOS can even read you the message. There's no discrimination.
  7. They will do another transaction fee increase next year. And something else. Slowly over time. It's the boiling frog fable. Before the acquisition, LL repeatedly increased all fees trying to bump the revenues and increase the market value of the company before they sell it. What I find hilarious is the claim they are "committed to reinvesting all of that revenue back into Second Life". So basically the investment company is not going to make anything off SL? Either they are good samaritans or trying to increase the value of SL again and sell it for profit.
  8. If you think hardware information is sensitive information then I suggest you cancel your social media accounts and turn off all the devices. Also I use Catznip on my potato laptop for years.
  9. if she has a dedicated GPU but runs FS with the integrated, the hardware info would show the integrated anyway. Radeon HD 7480D is integrated in AMD A4 5300 CPU's and she says her GPU is 5300 but pretty sure at this point she was mistaken and that's her CPU. And the 4GB memory she's mentions is the system memory. Maybe try Catznip viewer, no EEP support yet but you would get good UI and better performance. Mystery solved.
  10. No, the Firestorm icon which you click to launch it. Right click on it to get this menu and see if there's "Run with graphics processor", if so, choose AMD. See if there's difference. The fact that Dynamic Texture Memory is locked makes me think you run Firestorm through integrated graphics. (assuming you are correct about having RX 5300 although this card has 3GB memory, not 4 as you say) And for the love of Flying Spaghetti Monster, copy/paste us the info from Help -> About Firestorm.
  11. AMD has 5300 series CPU and GPU. Are you sure that's the GPU? You haven't provided the hardware info from Help -> About Firestorm. From one of the screenshots I can see Texture Memory Buffer is set to 512MB and apparently it's maximum for you because you can't enable Dynamic Texture Memory which is available to GPUs with more than 512MB memory...This is strange because AMD RX 5300 series GPU have 3GB memory therefore the option should be available to you. You either don't have RX 5300 series GPU or you are running Firestorm through the integrated CPU's graphics processor. Right click on Firestorm's icon and see if there's "run with graphics processor" option in the context menu, if yes, Select AMD/Nvidia. Or you do have RX 5300 series but drivers are screwed up. Here's how to get the hardware info. You may just copy/paste CPU: and Graphics Card segments. P.S. Dynamic Texture Memory is a Firestorm feature added in 6.4.13, it's possible the issue is there if they have made some other code changes related to Texture memory.
  12. The chat needs to be rebuild from ground up so it's a future-proof and easy to scale. If they can come up with something like Socket.io + AWS Fargate + Redis that would be actually nice. More groups and no missed notices means potential revenue.
  13. What about that group of people who burned government buildings and private properties during the summer? Occupied police stations, occupied part of a city as "autonomous zone". I see their flags around SL quite often. Always the fascists....but never a word about the communists who are doing the same... right now...with the help of Big Tech who take advantage of this moment to grab even more power. Having useful idiots sure is great. But they are going to be the next on the list.
