Aug 31st 2007 9:31PM I'd like to know what drug you were on, Akey, that let you keep such a straight face during this episode. LOL!

No Support for Intel chips?

Second Life Insider

Jun 6th 2007 5:51PM The Intel GMA950 also is on many newer Windows laptops, but it is also a shared-memory video processor. Shared-memory video is notorious for not being the greatest at advanced graphics like the newer nVidia or ATI boards that have dedicated video memory.

The other issue with Mac (I have one, BTW) is that there' no processor-specific coding; everything is coded under Core Video with either Quartz or Quartz Extreme.

Just Askin': Do you approve of the planned age-verification?

May 4th 2007 11:23PM This is a good idea for a couple of reasons ... it's an added layer of liability protection on Linden Lab by putting the responsibility upon landowners to flag their content, and it also helps morally sensitive Residents who won't want to be "triggered" by stumbling into an adult establishment in-world. With companies like MySpace and others being hounded to start verifying age, this certainly couldn't be a matter of "if," but "when."

Overpopulation?

Sep 13th 2006 2:13PM I would guess that most of those 16,000 "new registrations" are for alts because they forgot the security information for their current ones that now have to be reset; so, I'm wouldn't be certain that it actually means a significant increase in overall population.

Casualty of War - Torrid Midnight

Sep 9th 2006 11:35AM Rather than restate things here, I've posted a blog entry of my own in my Second Life Blog. There's valid arguments on both sides, but stooping down to wishing someone was dead is depriving a village somewhere of its town idiot.
