1. What if Linden Lab added harvesting and crafting to Second Life?

   You do, because you're invested, here all the time, and starved of new content and experiences - like most olbies, there likely isn't much in SL at this point you've not tried. Something fun to pass some time, or motive exploration, is entirely valid. Newbies present a very different bundle of interests and needs.

2. Gaming Laptop Recommendation

   At this point. ANYTHING with integrated Nvidia and 16GB Ram. As stocks clear out, prices of new items is going to jump by a sizable margin, if the items come back in stock at all.

3. When friendliness gets mistaken for flirting

   definetly a weirdo but...

4. Make Us Laugh!

   Gun control is hitting your target. I should know, I had the t-shirt.

5. The MFA Loop is Unhelpful to Customers Who Need Support

   Objectively, the best advice for anyone, if they want to protect their accounts and be phishing resistant, is to use OTP MFA where-ever possible and use a password vault to store their password and MFA master keys. That said, LL has dropped the ball with their implementation of MFA, I don't know how they managed to mess it up so bad but I had a similar experience to the OP here and felt like I was going to lose my account as well. That would have been a personal disaster of epic proportions. I have many OTP MFA master keys stored in my password vault and use MFA for many services. I'm using MFA almost constantly during my day-to-day and if this were a common and inherent problem with OTP MFA, I would have encountered it on all my services at least once by now. LL is definitely special and out there on their own on this, unfortunately. I have MFA on SL turned off for this reason and sadly cannot recommend it to anyone for SL, it presents too much of a risk which is pretty frustrating to me personally because everywhere else, I know I'm practicing good security hygiene and as well protected as is practical for everyday use on the internet.
