When installing fences, it provides choice for letting Fences organize the desktop (suggested and specifies EASY TO UNDO) or do it myself (for advanced).

I did not like how Fences organized my dozens of icons (yes many icons, which is why I thought Fences would be a good idea to help with grouping them).

 

THERE APPEARS TO BE NO EASY WAY TO UNDO WHAT HAS BEEN DONE. I disabled FENCES and now all the icons are bunched up in 12 columns and no longer grouped the way they were befo...

I passed my oral exam yesterday.  So, I will be ordained a Rabbi in three weeks.  Don't worry - I will still be the same crazy lady who loves FRP games, strategy games, and exploring life, the universe, and well, everything.  Oh, and I promise not to pray during any gaming

Hello,

 

generally i want the dock to appear when the mouse touches the edge of the screen. I use it all the time. But in some programs the work area is near the edge, so the dock comes to foreground all the time while working. Therefore it would be great to have a hotkey to quickly disable/enable this feature.

 

Greetings, Toni

I've been using the free version of Fences for forever now (because it's awesome and you guys are awesome like that) and I had an idea. I'm not sure if this is a thing on the paid/full version or not, but what about the idea of allowing people to make custom fence shapes or to be able to merge fence boxes together into a single fence with something other than a square (or other box form) shape? Maybe someone being creative with their desktop might want a "L" shaped fence, or to link ...

FRT (facial recognition technology) used to be slow and clumsy. Machines, slower. Not so anymore, especially when augmented by Cloud resources.

So, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration put together businesses and consumer groups to avoid legislation, which could be dicey. Those talks have fallen apart over “informing consumers and obtaining permission to use” this FRT.

“The talks have covered a range of issues dealing with how companies store, ...

MS is going to try to give Chromebooks a run for the money…

Digitimes wrote that apparently MS is working with Acer, Lenovo, and Inventec to produce $169-249 W10 notebooks.

Sounds like good news to me…and might be for the OEMs as well as profits haven’t been all that great for them…
