First and foremost this doesn't necessarily apply to only Millennials; It makes for excellent click bait does it not? I have been on second life for almost 6 years and have fallen in love with its community and the ability to make ideas come to reality for myself and others to enjoy. Renting has been troublesome and it can be hard to trust other land owners with maintaining the sim. I used to rent a full commercial sim during my first year of college. Talk about skipping a few meals :P, but to me it was well worth being able to express my creativity, but yes expensive to where the average college student couldn't even come close to covering those costs without selling his or her liver to the mafia. Now I am looking for a full region for myself in 2017; yet all I am looking at is a solid car payment monthly for virtual land. It raises a lot of questions as how much does it cost Linden Labs to support a virtual sim? I doubt it costs them a high fee a month to maintain the sim, so where does this $295 a month fee come from? I am 25 years old and not in a place in my life to spend a car payment on a virtual world. Is this why I'm hearing about creators and players leaving the world? Any information would be useful. I love second life but after finding out the land prices are this high, I want to know the end game here. Peace and love, Patrick.

One of the things that I have struggled with for a while now is getting the right brightness of my mesh. When I compare my stuff from others it seems like they all got it right while mine are either too dark or too bright. So when I put other creator's stuff together in a scene they all sync in nicely like it was made by one person but when I put mine next to them the color/brightness/contrast is off (too dark or too bright) I want to not have to worry about that and have a more efficient workflow. I hope I'm not in an island on this I guess my question is if there's a certain way to bake the textures to make the colors/brightness uniform with others or have the right brightness for sl?

I am out here in Missouri, close to Kansas City visiting my elderly parents and watching the eclipse. We started the morning with thunderstorms, but the sky cleared out in time for the show! Totality! The other bright light is the planet, Venus. This is 1 minute before totality. Crescent shadows beneath the trees. We were on the southern end of totality, so the southern sky was fairly bright. The street lights and little solar-powered landscape lighting did turn on. Right before and right after totality we saw these crazy, wriggly shadows on the driveway. They are called "Shadow bands ". Over all, it was a truly amazing experience. I saw solar prominences and the corona shooting out into space. Pictures could never do it justice.
