So I'm Curious

So yeah, I see in so many movies and TV show where bar staff pour a beer but never completely fill the glass.  It is always an inch or so from the top, and then there's a good inch of froth [suds in the US] which would roughly equate to about a half glass of beer. 

In Australia and the UK, glasses are filled right to the top, so I'm curious, in real life, when Americans go to a bar, do they get a full glass, or is it like in the movies/on TV, and end up with somewhat less?  I k...

2.0 feature missing in 3.0

A small, albeit convenient feature for my OCD which was present in 2.0 has been removed in 3.0. Were it not for the necessity of the upgrade (2.0 is no longer supported on windows 10 as of the creator update as far as I understand it) I would still be using it instead.

Hey guys. Who is into VR?

 

I recently set up 2 rigs for VR. One with Oculus Rift, the other with the HTC Vive.

 

I'd be interested in any talk, info, discussion on either system, or maybe any other options for VR.

 

Pros, cons, what have you.  Got anything to say?

Phantom Fences

Those 2 shadowy rectangles there are the problem. This started when I only had Fences installed a year ago. I've been mostly ignoring it, because the Fences functionality is worth it. But, I'd like to fix it.This is on Windows 10 x64, by the way.

The shadows appear when windows are maximized, opened, or brought to the front - then minimized or closed (100% of the time). They only disappear when the "Show Desktop" bar by the system tray is used (also 100% of the time). I can repeat this pr...

I just love dogs

I have 3 children. I love them to pieces.

But dogs? Obviously not in the same league but holy cow there is just something so touching in their unconditional devotion.

Sometimes, especially with the smarter ones, their similarities to small children can be uncanny. For instance, my 6 year old Entlevucher brings her stuffed dinosaur to bed every night, she just sleeps with it.

Who else here feels the same?

Clicking lag on desktop after updating to Windows 10 Creators Update

Good day Everyone!
I just recently updated to Windows 10 Creators Update. After the update, I'm experiencing a sort of delay whenever I clicked on anything on my desktop. Clicking the icons, right clicking. Everything has a delay on it.

So I tried disabling Fences and voila! Instant response. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Fences, but performance is still the same.

 

Using Fences 3.0.4.12

Any help or suggestions would be truly appreciated. Thank you!

Skinning - an Extinction Level Event

Yesterday I decided to treat myself to the new version of Office. Having used a corporate version of Office 2010 for the last few years I quite fancied my own copy - Office Pro 2016.

To go with this, I did a clean install of Windows 10. I have installed all the other programs I need, and, omitted games I no longer play. Everything is now squeaky clean.

I have not installed any skinning programs - at all. I no longer see what I need them for. Windows is perfectly adequate for the task.

Make Fences honor the 'adjust for best performance' setting in System Properties > Visual Effects

I use Fences for productivity reasons, not for visually appealing eye candy.

Could you please have add settings within Fences that are optimized for Performance / minimal resource utilization.

I don't need to see a pretty animation of the icons drifting from my desktop to the Fence.

I don't need to see animations at all really.

 

Please add low resource/performance options - I still prefer the way Fences 2.0 worked.

 

Also, why cant I download Betas from my account...

accidentally installed Fences 3...but I only want to stay on Fences 2

I thought I was installing an update to Fences 2, but I guess it was an upgrade to Fences 3.  I have a paid subscription to Fences 2...and don't want to pay for the new features in Fences 3.  The problem is that now when I boot, I get a screen saying to I want to subscribe to Fences 3 or start a trial of Fences 3.   I don't want to do either....I just want to stay on Fences 2....,but there's no option to do that.

How do I get rid of Fences 3 and that pop up message?

Anime: Soul Eater

So, over the past week/weekend I binged Soul Eater on Netflix. Mostly typical anime stuff, but some pretty cool art direction, where they seemed to go a different path than the usual.

Anyway, there was a character named Excalibur who was annoying as all hell during the show. However, by the end, I absolutely loved the character. And now I can barely contain myself from yelling "Fool!" in midst of other peoples sentences!



If you like anime, give this a chance.

Cannot drag and drop folders and icons into new fences or amongst existing fences

I was running Fences 3.0 on trial and it worked flawlessly.  I purchased the license and re-installed and now I can't drag and drop folders or files into fences.  I am running a Dell Inspiron 15 - 7559 with Windows 10 Pro build 1709 with an i7 processor, 16 gb ram and an NVIDIA Geforce GTX.

I've unchecked obvious things like "auto-arrange" on the desktop, etc. to no avail.  I've also reviewed items on this forum and Wondows 10 forums with little luck. There was one person that ...

The Intro

Let me start with a very, very important disclaimer:

I hate computers.

Well, more specifically, computers hate me. Within a week of joining the team here at Stardock, the guys in IT already knew my name and had to come down to fix computer issues multiple times. I also had a motherboard burst into flames on me once (STILL trying to figure that one out) and smoked a power supply (these occurred within months of each other), so I’m pretty sure our PC overlords have it out ...
