Working late Thursday night in Florida, USA. I have someone in Australia wanting me to write a quick script in LSL for an object in Second Life. We were interrupted: Second Life kept running, but Discord went down, telling me to 'try another server' which doesn't make sence when you are 1-on-1 with someone. All my typing in Discord turned red. Additionally, I couldn't log into the email portal for outlook.com: I got a screen of tiny-fonted text all clinging to the left edge of the display, unreadable, unusable. Second Life, though, stayed online and kept working for me, but then I'm on Windows 7. My friend who had requested the collaboration froze in Second Life on his Windows 10 system, and I don't know what his Discord was doing. I ended the session since I couldn't get a no/no-go out of him for the latest script version.



Wow I didn't know second life was still a thing. Literally yesterday I looked at a 20 year old archived version of a freeware portal which also listed a version of second life.
