Better than nothing. Maybe. No, not really.

We’ve had the Patriot Act (I really don’t like throwing that ‘P’ word around, especially for that) fourteen years. By and large? It’s a real balancing act, which has been abused.

Now, the House has forced the Senate’s hand and hopefully we’ll have a new law which removes the mass data collection the NSA’s been doing. We’ll see.

Now, the House has passed the USA Freedom Act (catchy use of the ‘F’ word) supposedly restraining the NSA’s bulk data collection. Not a word of tha...

B.B. King – King of the Blues, gone at 89

  King passed away peacefully at home in Las Vegas. He was 89…

Incredible blues guitar…played with the best. Still listen to my “Riding With The Blues” album with Eric Clapton.

Want a crazy stat? In 1956, he played 342 one night stands.

He’d been sickly over the past year or so…his diabetes.

Ah well, it comes for us all. Bless your soul and may it rest in peace, sir.

No option to change icon styles in a fence

Hello there,

When I create a fence on the desktop, that is a folder, not a regular fence, then i can choose view-> list, big icons, small icons, details etc. Thats very convinient. I was wondering why cant I do such thing with a regular fence? In the view menu I can only change opacity, not icon style/ size. This way I could have all my icons on the desktop listed as list, and not as tiles. Would you consider adding this feature? I wont believe I am the only one missing this . Any feedback...

Weather Docklet fails to update - ObjectDock Plus v1.9

I took advantage of the recent dicsounts to reactivate my ObjectDesktop sub and to pick up ObjectDock as well.  Now that I have it I wonder what the difference is between ObjectDock Plus and ObjectDock v2.

My main question is about the weather docklet.  I configured it to my zip and it seemed to work the first time it ran against that configuration, but even on forcing an update none of the graphics update, not even the flyouts.




Is there an update to Plus that I...

Hello everyone,

 

So, I want to try object Desktop, but I dont want to immediately spend 35$ on it (I have a product so I am qualified for the discount)

If I buy the Infinite version for one month and I want to buy it for a year after it. Will it be at a lower price, or still 35$ ?

 

Thank you.

The W10 ‘Unified OS’ will have more than one edition.

You thought unified meant one OS across all devices, right? Wrong, or ‘Unified OSino’.

Window10 will ship in three consumer editions and three Enterprise and education editions. Now that’s ‘unified’.

Translation: The three consumer editions Home, Mobile and Pro are designed for the demands of end-users, professionals and small businesses. Home is the equivalent of the Windows 8 edition, a basic edition of Windows 10 that will most likely ship on the ...

Two of my fences not sorting properly

I have 14 Fences on my desktop.  Two will not sort properly by name.  Each Fence is 3x2.  The upper right of the Fences out of sort show what should be the final icon, if sorted by name.  If I drag that icon out of the Fence it then puts the next end icon in its place.  I've tried unsorting and resorting or sorting on different criteria but it still won't sort properly.  Any ideas?

Monitor resolution missmatch

When I attempt to apply a video screensaver to my left monitor and my center main monitor, it displays this.  You can see how the 2 videos for the 2 monitors dont match their respective sizes.  The left video overlaps the right one.  I think the cause may be that DeskScapes got my 2 monitors confused.  They have different resolutions and it seems to put the lower resolution video on my higher resolution monitor and the higher resolution video on my lower resolution monitor, c...

This forum has no SSL/TLS security, even though it takes usernames and passwords.  Should be fixed ASAP.  Also, the main Stardock site only supports TLS 1.0, and not TLS 1.2.

Will W10 Updates Become Mandatory?

To understand this, you have to understand that W10 will have multiple editions, each requiring a ‘service branch’ all of its own.

“There are going to be three Windows 10 servicing branches when the product launches: Current Branch (CB), Current Branch for Business (CBB) and Long Term Servicing Branch (LTSB). Different versions of Windows 10 will give users access to different servicing branches.” – Mary Jo Foley

Windowblinds causing taskbar to lock up in Windows 8.1

So I've had this problem for months now, been back and forth with Stardock technical support and nothing they suggest seems to fix it. I've used Windowblinds for years and apart from one issue with UAC a few years ago I've never had any big problems with it. But at the end of my tether I've disabled it this morning as I simply cannot fix this issue.

Basically what happens is my taskbar keeps locking up. By locking up I mean I click the icons and nothing happens, I can't pe...

Why is it taking so long to process my order

$

I placed my order for Object Desktop, Tweak 7 and Objectdock Plus v2 last Saturday. I was advised that it would take up to 2 working days to process the order. Well it's now another weekend and still when I log on it says I have no orders and strangely the shopping cart still says I have 3 items in it despite receiving an order confirming the order and giving me an order number 2171806.

Can someone from Stardock please look into this as I am getting concerned.

Many thanks.
