Hello Art. I was talking about the Asus Transformer Book T300 (aka ASUS Transformer Book Trio for the initial version Windows + Android).

Not about the Asus Transformer Pad TF300T (with Android). Cool too but very different. So many Asus are available... :)

Bad news for SLers?

http://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2014/06/is-linden-lab-abandoning-second-life/

And what do you think of "Is Microsoft abandoning Windows?"

Yes, I agree, just ridiculous. :2funny:

Interesting article. Second Life 2 had to happen eventually I guess. What they do with people's existing assets in SL is one of the important questions, if this comes to pass.

Yes Freddy, I remember the sad period when Linden Lab invented Zindra (the adult continent) and many interesting places had to disappear (and they disappeared). Now, not only some places, the whole SL. You're right, the beginning of SL 2.0... >:(

Fortunately, an old aricle (June 2014). Since that date, nothing happened. Wait and see...

A bad story similar to the start menu of Windows 8 (correction: much more serious!!). ::)

Lets hope that LL make a good job on the viewer for SL2, because, lets be honest, the SL 1 viewers were awful for many years.

I'm afraid the viewer isn't important at all if there's nothing to see in SL anymore.

Yes I know, I'm very pessimistic. :( :(

Looks as if you're still in business or able to experience this 2nd life thing.

You'll just have to wait a couple of years until 2016 when it should be finished.
Hopefully, they'll still allow members to play during that construction phase.

Good luck with it!

It seems Oculus Rift is the main part of the next SL:



But hey, I am not a gamer! What is happening to MY SL? :tickedoff:

I think that SL will have more diverse offerings. Just like in Real Life, there are many things to do, most for pleasure but some for work or sport or whatever appeals to an individual. I believe this will be done in an effort to hopefully "lure" more people to the SL experience, especially if they have something similar to offer as if it were RL (Real Life).

Just my take....

Yes Art, Linden Lab is a powerful company, with computers and employees all over the world. 8)

They can invent many innovative things, not only Second Life, but when SL (the true one) will disappear, I wonder why I would buy a new computer (one of my old projects). ::)


(BTW I read that LL bought Oculus to Facebook, another upsetting new...) :o

I must admit I'm just like those people who think that nothing interesting was invented after Win 7.

Hey I have a lot of fun with SL and all that must disappear!!! :tickedoff: :tickedoff: :tickedoff: :tickedoff:  :tickedoff: :tickedoff: :tickedoff: :tickedoff: :tickedoff: :tickedoff:

GT, I think you're reading far too much negative influences into this new build. The article clearly states that this NEW one will try to maintain compatibility with SL to a degree BUT also acknowledges that it is a 12 year old product! Face it, if it doesn't retool itself, it is going to likely die for good!! I don't think any of the players / user community wants that.

It claims to open whole new avenues of exploration and wonder in it's virtual world. So, my advice to you would simply be to take a breath, worry about those things that you can control and the rest, let them go for now. Everything might just work out to surprise you along with everyone else.

I hate to see you get worked into a frenzy over this. Why not re-read the article again. I did and I got more meaning / understanding the second time.

Wishing you all the best, my friend, along with a nice weekend!
