    I think it is advertised as a reindeer. Anyhow it is a sort of cute little one. My moose thinks so too.

    Meet Boopie #9. I just colleted the little one as one of the winter gifts from Linden Lab for premium members. First time I really like something out of those gift boxes. There is an animesh version in the box too, that happily jumps around with you wherever you go, but that is not really my beer.

    Better released with some delay and in good working order, than publish under time pressure with lots of happy little accidents (TM Bob Ross). If the first release still has a few major flaws, it makes the project pretty much worthless IMHO. People expect perfectly working apps for their phones these days. No second chances, on to the next possible shiny. So my view: Take as much time as is needed LL, as long as the result is outstanding on release.

    Li heavy as usual? Just picked it up: 2 Li for a 5 star string..... reasonable. Still not overwhelming. 2 Li for a wee tiny reindeer ........ mmmmmmm I'm not impressed. Let's put it mildly, the premium gifts are no reason to take on a premium membership. On e can catch this kind of stuff for free (gifts) at the Shop 'n Hop too. The Belli homes or the land and the stipends can be perfect reasons of course. Added: The animesh and huggable boopies are kind of cute if you into this kind of things.

    LL could really recycle older already used last names. It happens in RL too, every generation again. And maybe clean out the closets with accounts that did not log in for more than 10 years, after a fair warning mail to the owner first. That would free tons of first name \ last name combinations.

    Peeve: As someone who lives in Limburg (and a cheese lover) I can tell you: Limburger is an awful cheese. Just the smell of it. My excuse: Limburger is produced in the Belgium part of Limburg, while I live in the Dutch part Peeve2: Now I'm craving for some Gouda.

    Better spit on it, to make sure.

    I Went to Winter Wonderland that just opened. Very nice scenery, there is some snowflake game going on, I saw people hunting them. And... a bunch of Moles having fun as a performing band. They're simply having a wonderful Christmas time.

    I went to the latest exhibition of @Scylla Rhiadra's work. There I saw this funny creature too (made by another artist). Now he is part of my Christmas decoration at my home.

    There is fermented and fermented. It is not a religion that I don't eat strongly fermented stuff. BTW, I like beer but I don't drink it, because of my diabetes. Peeve: Alcohol can have a tricky outcome and cause a hypo. I don't find it worth the risk.
  11. Sid Nagy
    Hey, if you like fermented food: Kudos for you. I don't. That is all there is to it. Peeve: no need to get rude IMHO.

    If the nose signals "No", that is for a reason. It means, be careful. If the nose signals "No, No, No", it means stop right there, move away from it. Those messages are good enough for me.

    Well there are stores enough that have at least a photo of what is inside the present next or above the box. I don't need the 55th Christmas tree and I'm not planning to walk with Christmas lights on my head. In other news: Shop'n hop sims visited and still not one gift taken. But what is worse: merchandise is totally boring for guys (as expected). This is not only happening with gifts. There is so many stuff out there one can buy. It is not for nothing that clothing goes extremer and extremer. If one wants to stand out as a clothing shop, there is little hope if you come up with a fatpack of regular traditional jeans or a traditional skirt or blouse. Most oldbies have several truckloads full of that kind of stuff in their inventory already. We are spoiled in SL.

    What, if all live a peeveless life today, that is no bueno?

    Premium isn't really free is it? And as you already pointed out vastly overpriced.

    I guess, to keep the prices up. Or one has overplayed their hand and went bancrupt. There are a lot of adult sims on mainland. Lots of plots available for L$0 or L$1 as plot price. You only have to pay rent. One can advertise it and market it just like a mainland plot, so it will be as successful or unsuccessful as it would be in Zindra. I don't understand why so many people want to pay up those prices for Mainland.

    I learned over the years, that most gifts ain't worth it for me. So I decided long time ago, that if there is no picture of the gift explaining what to expect, I simply don't take it and accept that I might miss out on a goody. That saves a lot of inventory space and a lot of time wading through all the free not so useful for me stuff. I went trough 4 shop 'n hop sims yesterday. I picked up zero gifts.

    Than a big baron has pulled out or changed their business plan because they needed that 10% bonus to stay afloat, I guess. Let's say that baron had 50 sims without the group bonus, that would mean they would pull their 5 bonus sims out of Zindra. That would make a nice chunk of abandoned parcels.
  20. Sid Nagy
    Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff. That's all.
  21. Sid Nagy
    In simplest possible words: Run the land business as if you don't have the 10% group bonus and speculate with the 10% extra that you get through the group bonus.

    It is a fascinating discussion already. But I don't think this is the right thread for it, maybe not even the right forum. Although SL and its users will have to deal with AI as well.
  23. Sid Nagy
    Artists have always inspired themselves and each other by looking and learning from each others work, haven't they? So that AI learns from other artists is kind of a natural process IMHO. AI will simply become a competitor for all arts, whether it is painting, music, poetry, fashion, film, photography, literature, architecture ..... A new era, we have to adapt to that. Photography did not ruin painting, but changed it. Photographers weren't pleased with digital photography and digital processing at first either. Now almost everyone embraces these techniques and uses them. AI will not ruin human arts, but it will change it too. Life evolves, we will have to learn to use the new situation. AI is one of them.

    How one calculates as a baron isn't really important. Goal always is to make a profit in the end. Big spenders have more wiggling power than small potatoes, just like everywhere.

    Oh Yes there is. The early adopters who have bought lifetime accounts don't pay tier for a certain amount of land. They can price land for whatever they want and leave it empty as long as they want, without losing a penny or a cent.
