Hey, it feels great to be back in Windows 7, after the disastrous adventure of messing around with Linux Mint Cinnamon 16. Ever hear of a system crash called FALLBACK MODE, and it's a loop, and you cannot seem to fix it or stop it or get out of it? Maybe I shouldn't have tried to install a cursor into the users/share/icons folder with elevated privileges.............. is it possible that Linux is overrated? Or am I in the wrong, and I did something I shouldn't?

oh well. ...

I have a Keurig machine, and I use the refillable K-cups which I fill with whatever coffee I decide to buy at the grocery store.  It's much cheaper than the packaged K-cups, and in my opinion, tastes about the same.

It seems Keurig is tired of 3rd party coffee brands using their system.

“Users being targeted by the scam will see a phony webpage modeled after the Netflix login page. When a user enters Netflix account info, the scam site claims that the user's Netflix account has been suspended due to "unusual activity" and then provides a fake customer service number.

Hi,

as a long time customer and subscriber I PLEASE want an honest answer if ObjectDock is still in development or not and if it EVER will work right on 64-bit systems (shortcuts always pointing to c:\program files (x86)) problem. I am really sadly tired of the update politics and public relations on this matter at Stardock at the moment (again). Seen too many good SD-programs going down the drain I relied on (aka DesktopX / RightClick...).

A general update-plan would be great and also a n...

So I found these old Nintendo Theme Suites:They are complete, with sound replacements, wallpapers, IconPackager, the works. There's 6 more: Zelda: Windwaker, Super Mario Sunshine, Pikimin, GameBoy Advance SP, Star Fox Adventures, and Eternal Darkness . They're beautiful, but only problem is they're for Windows 95-XPSP1. I'd like to be able to use them on my Windows 7 without the corruptions that happen by using old themes with new OS's. If you want these and the other themes ...

While the world endlessly debates on what is an indie developer, one thing that is very common at indie developers that is not common at major development houses is the requirement to work with teammates that are spread across the world, all day, every day. Another difference is that optimizing every bit of juice out of your development setup is a major priority.

So here are some suggestions I have from spending many years online:

Our resident Borg has assimilated 4of0... resistance was futile...  

He now has 40 years of collective memories... which makes him a hive of information...

Luckily, he is not aboard the Borg Ship during this assimilation process....and can celebrate with his collective where he is known as 1of5 (or 2of5 depending who you ask...    ).... and head to the alcove for a nice regeneration....

 

I won't drone on any longer and just wish him....

Just upgraded to fences pro in order to have the ability to arrange icons within a fence.     It appeared on your fences page that this was one of the benefits of the getting the upgraded version.

However, it looks like there is no way to do this, and I am forced to use one of the default windows sort options inside the fence.   Is this correct?

Quoting from the product description on your product page:  "Sort icons in fences by date, type, size, name, ti...

Hello All!

 

Probably somebody here still remember me, I spend many time in skinning, but now, have a break because now I'm making video games.

Art, programming, I made myself and even made sounds and music.

 

Now I'm searching for publisher.

this game will be for all most popular platforms, mobile and desktop.

And very interesting, what do you think about this game?
