    Tested, all options present unless I "zoom" the page to about 400% (using Brave and ctrl + mouse wheel).

    Well, been a long while since I posted an image of myself here so ... here we are. Swapped to using the LaraX body and I actually rather like it. Yep, the Honey Snep (Snow Leopard) is pretty much the proper 'me' these days. Yeah I know there's a little clipping - unavoidable at times with the parts I use.
  3. Solar Legion
    Not a problem. I almost responded much sooner but had not yet had much coffee.

    ... No. Are you an Adult? If yes, act like one and get over it - VPNs are used worldwide for quite a bit. Don't like that users can access Second Life using one? Tough. Alternate accounts? Linden Lab has a policy on that already (not often fully enforced but it exists). That it is not strict enough for your liking is ... Well, as I said a moment ago, if it is too lax for you, tough. This 'request' is beyond childish.

    I'm lucky enough to live 'close' to a Micro Center so .... When the time comes to do the motherboard and CPU - possibly even the PSU as I don't want to mess with the cables - I'll just take it up there, buy the parts and have them do the installs. It's the application of the thermal paste and the dread of damaging the CPU pins that prevents me doing it myself.

    Since getting him as a 2019 Christmas present, Horus here has only really had minimal work done as well: Expanded the RAM to 32GB and only recently replaced the internal HDD with a 'proper' 3.5", 7200RPM 2TB unit (used Clonezilla to ensure the data was copied exactly - including the drive identifiers, so a literal clone job). I'll eventually need to - when I can afford to do so for each component - replace the GPU (running a 980 TI), then the CPU (Ryzen 7 2700X) and motherboard (ASUS ROG Strix B450-F Gaming) and finally the OS SSD (500GB Samsung 860 EVO).

    Honestly I've never really bothered with Hibernate or Suspend on any computer, even back when I used Windows. PC stays on with a screensaver running after a time (with a password lock) and the whole thing gets a full power cycle once every one to two weeks unless an update comes in that requires a power cycle (a restart if going by the package manager but I just do a power cycle to be safe) - this only happens for major updates/kernel upgrades. But yeah, sounds like they really cheaped out on your PSU. The only RGB components in my own setup are on the fans, small segments of the motherboard itself and my little 'gamer' keypad on the desk. That's all my 'little' Horus needs (yes, I named my tower).

    And just as suspected the moment the word 'laptop' was used in the OP ... Integrated graphics. So yeah - small wonder it is having problems. it's not the software.

    And I would present you with an argument on the matter ... Why? It is reality. Period. Beginning and end. It's not a discussion or 'argument'. If you believe you can tie two Second Life accounts together based off of an IP Address then you are believing in pure fantasy. That is all there is to it. You can infer such a link. You cannot prove it. Have a good evening, morning, afternoon and such. Go find someone else to scratch that argument itch with.

    No, we are not "at 99%" here. We are at "belief in fairy tale" on the matter if you actually believe that.
  11. Solar Legion
    No. No one outside of Linden Lab can actually tell who your alts are. Let alone tying them to anything in particular. And anyone trying to tell you otherwise is lying. Period.
  12. Solar Legion
    Ah yes, because not entertaining certain things somehow equates to not accepting other people or their ideas or to assuming one's own viewpoint is the Gospel Truth ... Get a grip. I'll debate and argue with people who are actually present for such. Those have been few and far between. Enough so that I do not bother most of the time anymore. Not to mention that some of these troll topics (and that is exactly what that one is - period) have been rehashed in varied ways so many times over the years that everything there is to say - for me anyway - has already been said. I'm not interested in feeding them.

    I'll preface this by saying that despite my contributions the last few days I have avoided doing much more than 'reacting' to things here as I have been fighting off the flu and thus on an even shorter trigger as far as my tolerance for BS goes. That out of the way ... There are members of this forum who can be predictably counted on for varied things: Their viewpoints, being helpful and such. There are also those here that one can reliably predict in a more negative fashion and a rather recent thread - one which is a joke, no matter what the OP claims - showcases this quite well. Said OP should have stuck to Reddit where they can carefully curate an echo chamber of empty headed agreement for their harebrained ideas while pretending to have the best interests of Second Life users (or anyone really) at heart. It is what they are good at and this has been shown time and time again. We also got to see the forum 'champion' show their true colors once more - even while they try to present their statements and actions in a positive light. And somehow there are people here who will give them the attention they crave. Therein lies part of my peeve: These are people with track records and whose true colors do not take long to show to someone they have not interacted with before. Why does anyone take either seriously? Brush them off, laugh them away and get on with your days. The other part of the peeve? Well lets just say it is getting quite irritating to see staff pretending that one must be nice to such types. If you want nice, don't run a forum. Run a drum circle and sing Kumbaya.
  14. Solar Legion
    Oh no need to imagine. And of course, all went nowhere.
  15. Solar Legion
    That's nice. It also does not change reality. Derendering is not considered by Linden Lab to be a basic function. Want to change that? File a feature request and see where it goes. LOD 6? Well there's one problem right there ... You need to use a bare bones, basic Viewer for side work? Really? As for the rest ... yes that is indeed a "personal issue". Now then if you want an argument of some sort - seek one out with someone else - preferably someone who actually wants to waste their time over this. In the meantime, the real world will just keep on going.
